My Demonic Cult's Holy Maiden

As soon as Qi Yu finished speaking, the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and soon the entire mountain was frozen.

Just as Qi Yu was about to make a move, a slender hand grabbed the hem of her clothes. Qi Yu stopped and looked at Su Yue, who had appeared beside her at some point.

Lin Ruoxi smiled as she looked at Su Yue. She and Su Yue had known each other since they were children. Back then, Su Chengying and Lin Ruohai were friends and family acquaintances.

But now that I think about it, this family friendship is just a joke.

When the Beast God saw Su Yue, his blood-red eyes, which had been as still as a deep well, flickered slightly.

She was also seriously injured in her last battle with Su Yue, so it was probably a draw.

Su Yue seems to be stronger now. If they fight again, will I still have the advantage?

"Husband, step back and let me do it!"

Su Yue pulled Qi Yu back and slowly opened her mouth, but she didn't look at Qi Yu; instead, she looked at Lin Ruoxi.

A month ago in the capital, Lin Ruoxi fought with Qi Yu, and one of the corpse gods was destroyed by Qi Yu.

Her move back then was somewhat unfair and opportunistic, so today she wants to fight Lin Ruoxi when she's at her peak.

She even wanted to kill Lin Ruoxi here!

However, Lin Ruoxi is fused with the Corpse God, making her difficult to kill, but we still have to give it a try.

Qi Yu glanced at Lin Ruoxi, nodded, and then turned to look at the Beast God.

The Beast God's predecessor was a fish. After merging with the Corpse God, it continuously evolved and became a dragon.

The corpse god in question, and the one on his body, share the same origin—both came from the corpse-slaying ritual of the seventh leader of Taoism.

According to the Corpse God, the three Corpse Gods merging into one can break through to the Saint Realm and become a Saint.

However, more than three thousand years have passed, and not a single sage has been born, which is highly doubtful.

Regardless, the Corpse God always believed in this point. He merged with Qi Yu to observe the stars, not wanting to be merged and assimilated by another body, so he reached an agreement with Qi Yu.

According to the agreement, Qi Yu was obligated to help him deal with the other Corpse Gods.

The Corpse God also looked at Qi Yu, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes.

"Yingyue, are you confident you can separate the stars?" the Beast God asked in his mind.

Yingyue is the name of the corpse god she merged with; these names were given independently by their masters.

“Guanxing has merged with this human and become his dantian. If it were two thousand years ago, I might not have been able to defeat Guanxing. After all, he was the first corpse god that the master had created and had been with the master for longer than me.”

"However, he has been sealed for over two thousand years, and his power is less than one-tenth of what it used to be. If you can touch this human, I am confident that I can extract the Star Gazing technique!"

The Beast God nodded, a hint of fighting spirit surging in his eyes as he looked at Qi Yu.

She already has two of the Three Corpse Gods; now she only needs Qi Yu's.

Before the seventh leader died, out of fear of death, he wanted to sever his corpse again to prolong his life. However, he was already very weak at that time, and he failed halfway through the severing process.

The evil spirit, which had been severed in half, broke away from the seventh leader and wandered the world in the form of an infant before being captured by her.

For over two thousand years, she has been trying to snatch back the sealed Star Gazing, hoping to use the power of the three Corpse Gods to break through to the Saint Realm.

Now, as long as I defeat Qi Yu, seize the Corpse God that has merged with Qi Yu, and then absorb the power of the Corpse God, I can break through from the Saint Realm.

Faced with the temptation of sainthood, even the most detached person would be moved.

In ancient times, most of the monsters were killed by human sages, and sacred beasts such as dragons and phoenixes were also killed and dismembered by humans who prayed for longevity.

Therefore, from ancient times to the present, they, the demon beasts and the humans, have been mortal enemies.

Even more than 10,000 years ago, humans were just monkeys who didn't even know how to use fire; back then, humans were simply their food.

Only by regularly offering sacrifices to these demonic beasts can they have a sliver of hope for survival.

But the appearance of a man brought a way to make humanity stronger.

He brought many novel cultural ideas and concepts, and founded the Taoist school, the predecessor of Taoism.

He also brought the concepts of Heavenly Way and the Three Pure Ones.

He is hailed as the man closest to 'immortal'!

After his death, humanity truly stood up and began to overthrow the rule of the monsters.

Various powerful sacred beasts were either subdued or slain, and a war lasting thousands of years began.

Monsters and ghosts seize opportunities to launch beast tides and disasters from time to time.

But at such times, a person carrying destiny is born, namely a saint.

Under the guidance of those sages, humanity gradually grew stronger and more prosperous. Originally, the continent belonged to the demon beasts, but with the rise of humanity, they were driven to the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the south, and even traveled across the ocean to find new homes.

As time went by, fewer and fewer demonic beasts inherited the bloodline of sacred beasts, and the power of their bloodline became increasingly diluted.

To this day, the descendants of sacred beasts such as the dragon, the elephant, the phoenix, and the celestial horse have basically become extinct.

The last Luan bird on the mainland died at Bailu Academy, which was the predecessor of Qingyun Academy.

Its remains were also made into a musical instrument.

The feud between monsters and humans is irreconcilable; it is a hatred etched into their blood.

Qi Yu looked at the girl, who appeared to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, with a solemn expression and adjusted his breathing to its peak.

This is an old monster who has lived for two thousand years, not some little girl.

Its original form was a fish. Although it evolved into a dragon through continuous evolution, it still retained the habits and weaknesses of a fish.

That means her combat power will drop significantly when she comes to land.

Although he is at the peak of the Quasi-Saint level, it seems that he is not incapable of fighting!

Moreover, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; eliminating her now will save us a lot of trouble later.

After all, she doesn't always stay away from the ocean and come to land.

This is an opportunity!

"Before we start, I want to ask a question!" Qi Yu asked.

The Beast God remained expressionless and calmly said, "Ask away!"

Where is the sun-chasing creature?

Zhu Ri was the name of the third corpse god, but because the seventh leader died young and his intelligence was incomplete, he was captured by the beast god.

Qi Yu intended to use this third corpse, God Chasing the Sun, to save Qi Lin's life.

After thinking for a moment, the Beast God pointed to his hair ornament.

"It's in here. If you're so capable, come and get it yourself!"

Her hair ornament is also a relic, but it is not a relic of a human saint, but a relic of a sacred beast.

Chapter 110 Fusion of True Qi

Bang bang bang!

Countless ice swords crisscrossed the sky, leaving white streaks in the air.

These ice swords formed a sword array, surrounding the Beast God in the very center.

These ice swords always maintained this distance. Whenever an ice sword tried to break through this distance, it would immediately shatter into ice shards. Even though Qi Yu used his talent to enhance it, he still couldn't break through.

Qi Yu has a domain, and so does the Beast God, whose domain is even stronger than Qi Yu's. The snowflakes flying everywhere are the two domains eroding and devouring each other.

Qi Yu thought his Azure Nether True Qi was cold enough, but the beast god's demonic energy was even colder than his Azure Nether True Qi.

This was the first time Qi Yu had been completely outmatched in the field of low temperature; the Beast God's power was beyond imagination.

Su Yue was able to win because she was able to break through this ultra-low temperature zone, while I was unable to.

If he continues to compete with the Beast God in terms of domain, he may not be a match for him.

The Beast Goddess hovered in mid-air, her long silver-white hair flowing gently. Looking at the surrounding sword formation, her beautiful face remained expressionless. She raised her jade-like hand and lightly touched the air.

Just a gentle touch, and a strange power immediately exploded, like a galaxy falling from the sky in an instant. The galaxy reversed, the sun and moon were turned upside down, and the world lost its color. Terrifying power spread outwards from her center.

Under this terrifying power, the ice swords surrounding the Beast God were immediately shattered, all of them breaking into ice shards and then disappearing completely.

Not only the ice sword, but also the mountain where Qi Yu stood, the surrounding trees, flowers, and even the soil and rocks, all disappeared under this force.

The area within a ten-mile radius was leveled by this force; mountains and rivers vanished, leaving behind a frozen wasteland.

Qi Yu was also suspended in mid-air, with snowflakes falling around him. His domain was suppressed by the Beast God's domain and he could not use it.

This is indeed a monster that has lived for over two thousand years; it's not so easy to deal with!

I've never been this disheveled when I fought with Lin Ruoxi.

The title of Beast God is truly well-deserved!

Taking a deep breath, Qi Yu unleashed his domain with all his might, and the snowflakes began to expand outward, soon enveloping the Beast God as well.

The Beast God seemed somewhat surprised, but quickly recovered and pointed a finger in Qi Yu's direction.

One ice spike after another pierced towards Qi Yu, further lowering the surrounding temperature.

However, the ice spikes did not hit Qi Yu, because Qi Yu had suddenly appeared behind the Beast God at some point, and was already swinging down an ice sword.

At this moment, Qi Yu unleashed an aura of unstoppable force, as if he could kill any god he encountered.

Qi Yu knows only one sword technique, the "Canglan Sword Manual," and he has mastered it to a high level.

This surprise attack should have a good effect.

To Qi Yu's surprise, his figure involuntarily paused in mid-air, and all his true energy was interrupted.

In that instant, it was as if his own momentum had been paused; the sword energy he had accumulated was shattered in that instant.

With his sword strike interrupted, Qi Yu had no choice but to retreat. It was at this moment that the Beast God turned around and faced Qi Yu.

Looking at the Beast God up close, Qi Yu realized just how terrifying this blood-eyed girl was.

The space around her was filled with a demonic aura so intense it was almost tangible. Anyone who got close felt as if they had fallen into the deep sea, with an invisible pressure pressing down on them, making it impossible to move.
