Although Canglan is known as the demon country, there are still many humans living in its corners.

However, the status of humans in Canglan is even lower than that of monsters in Beizhou. Their status is similar to that of captive slaves or even food.

Deep in Canglan, very close to Gulong City, at the entrance of a slightly larger human village, a sloppy Taoist priest was squatting at the entrance and dozing off.

The villagers passing by looked thin and tired. They glanced at the sloppy Taoist with lifeless eyes and continued with their own business.

As the sun was setting, the sloppy Taoist suddenly moved, narrowed his eyes, which had been closed, and secretly looked around.

"Big...Big Brother, are you looking for me?"

The sloppy Taoist priest is none other than Lu Ya, the fifth of the Jiufeng clan. After leaving the Jiufeng clan more than 20 years ago, he went to Canglan. No one knows what he is doing or what he wants to do. Even Li Changan cannot really understand this introverted and reserved guy.

"I want to ask you, what is the Rebirth Mantra?" Li Changan's voice came into his mind.

Lu Ya thought for a moment and said, "The Rebirth Mantra is a Daoist technique similar to soul refining... It's similar to a teleportation array, but it doesn't teleport... people, but spirits."

"And what's even more special is that the Rebirth Mantra can take over the body of a predetermined target in a very short time. Hmm... the target must... must have the Rebirth Mantra seal engraved on them beforehand."

Li Changan frowned and suddenly his eyelids twitched.

"You mean, as long as you place the Rebirth Mantra Seal on someone in advance, you can instantly take over their body and replace them?"

Lu Ya said with his spiritual sense, "Yes, and it can... it can ignore distance."

Li Changan's eyes lit up slightly.

This explains why Xiao Dingtian was not worried about the evil spirit, because he had planned to use the Rebirth Mantra from the beginning to teleport the evil spirit to someone and leave the range of Qingyun Mountain.

As long as he leaves Qingyun Mountain, no matter where he is, no one will be able to threaten him and take over Li Jiuzhong's body.

However, the result was somewhat unexpected. Not only did he fail to take over Li Jiuzhong's body, but his body was taken away by the evil spirit. He was even forced by Li Jiuzhong's sword and had to use the Rebirth Mantra to escape.

In this way, Xiao Dingtian had prepared a target in advance to host the evil spirit, and from his words, it could be concluded that this person was most likely in Taixuan Sect.

Li Changan paused and his expression changed slightly.

Xiao Gan!

"Yes, it must be Xiao Gan. Xiao Gan is Xiao Dingtian's son. It would be easy for him to cast the Rebirth Mantra on him in advance. Moreover, he joined the Taixuan Sect half a year ago."

“Once the evil spirit is transported to Taixuan Sect by the Rebirth Curse and takes over Xiao Gan’s body, it will not only save Qingyun Mountain from trouble, but also bring disaster to Taixuan Sect.”

Li Changan bared his teeth and gasped.

"Moreover, in order to obtain Li Jiuzhong's immortal body, Xiao Dingtian did not hesitate to refine the entire Qingyun Mountain into Yin puppets, so why would he be reluctant to sacrifice even one of his descendants?"

"I can even think of it this way. If something goes wrong at Qingyun Mountain and he can't send the evil spirit away, causing his life to be threatened, he can activate the Rebirth Mantra and personally take over Xiao Gan's body and replace him!"

"What a sinister method, what a... what a piece of shit!"

Li Changan cursed for a while. If Xiao Dingtian had really taken over the body of his son Xiao Gan, he should be in Taixuan Sect now. Given his previous grudge with him, he might go to Jiufeng to cause trouble.

Have to go back as soon as possible.

"Big Brother, what happened?" Lu Ya asked worriedly.

Li Changan shook his head. "It's okay. Are you still in Canglan? When will you be back?"

"Oh, I still have something...something to do. I'll be back soon. Don't worry about me, Big Brother."

Lu Ya said this, but he saw that the Linghai Mingxing had dimmed, and it was obvious that Li Changan had cut off the communication.

Lu Ya couldn't help but grin, patted the dirt off his body and sat up. Seeing that there was no one around, Lu Ya transformed himself into a handsome young man and strode away.

At the foot of Qingyun Mountain, Li Changan's face was solemn, "Go, return to the sect immediately!"

…

At Taixuan Peak of Taixuan Sect, Xiao Gan, who was originally meditating in seclusion in a cave, suddenly opened his eyes, and his dark pupils slowly turned blood red.

At the center of the eyebrows, a complex rune pattern flashed by, and then everything returned to calm.

But it is obvious that Xiao Gan at this time is no longer the Xiao Gan before.

"Damn you Li Changan, how dare you ruin my plans? I will never let you go!"

Xiao Gan said with gritted teeth.

The Rebirth Mantra is a very high-level Taoist technique. It can not only complete the possession of another body through a distance, but also bring all the realm and strength possessed by the original body into the new body.

In other words, except for the fact that Xiao Dingtian's physical strength is not as strong as before, his realm and cultivation have already reached the Anti-Void Realm.

After a brief period of adaptation, Xiao Dingtian crawled out of the cave and glanced at the sky.

"Nine Peaks? Very good, I will destroy your Nine Peaks first to avenge you for ruining my cultivation!"

Xiao Gan descended from Taixuan Peak and headed towards Jiufeng. At this moment, the Taixuan formation fluctuated slightly twice, and two obscure auras fled away. Xiao Gan frowned.

"Chen Bailou and Tang Guang left?"

Xiao Gan's eyes flickered and he felt a little confused.

What could have alarmed these two masters at the Hedao realm and caused them to leave Taixuan Sect together?

"But in this case, the strongest people in Taixuan Sect are the peak masters in the Anti-Void Realm?" Xiao Gan breathed a sigh of relief. Before, he was worried that the presence of the two great cultivators in the Hedao Realm would notice him. Now, with the two great cultivators in the Hedao Realm leaving, the possibility of him being discovered will be infinitely reduced.

Xiao Gan sneaked all the way to Jiufeng and frowned slightly when he looked at the Jiufeng mountain protection formation.

"Why do I feel a little dangerous? Is it an illusion?" Xiao Gan scratched his head. Jiufeng's mountain protection formation looked very ordinary, but when he got close to a certain extent, he actually had a creepy sense of danger.

But this isn't scientific? Isn't Xiaoqiong Peak the poorest of the Nine Peaks? How could such a protective formation be set up that could threaten him?

"Hehe, the inheritance of Qingyun Mountain is mainly based on formations. I have studied this for hundreds of years and can set up the Soul Devouring Formation. I don't believe that I can't break the small mountain protection formation!"

Xiao Gan rushed towards the ninth peak with a grim smile, formed seals with his hands, and began to dismantle the ninth peak's mountain protection formation.

But soon, he realized that something was wrong. Above the formation, four spiritual swords of different colors slowly emerged, with sharp edges flickering at the sword tips, locking onto Xiao Gan from afar.

"Four earth-level spiritual treasures, how fucking rich!" Xiao Gan bared his teeth and took another step forward.

A ripple slowly appeared above the formation, and a terrifying sword energy suddenly emerged from the formation and fell towards Xiao Gan like lightning.

"Fuck!"

Xiao Gan's hairs stood on end, the breath of death was overwhelming, and he retreated several miles as if he had seen a ghost, before he could barely get rid of the terrifying feeling of divine power.

As Xiao Gan left, the domineering sword energy retracted into the formation and disappeared.

Xiao Gan was confused.
