A blank scroll flew up from below. Yue Zun stretched out his right hand, and a ray of moonlight emanated from the center of his white jade palm, pulling the scroll back.
During the flight, the content on the scroll is filled in little by little.
The noisy market, the terrified crowd, and the three gods who escaped to the edge, all their expressions were vividly printed on the scroll, until it was completely frozen in the end, turning into a brand new ink painting. Through the edge of the scroll, one could still sense the spiritual power fluctuations coming from the scroll, the three gods trying to escape, their "gods" struggling.
But under Yue Zun's suppression, their resistance became weaker and weaker, and the outlines on the scroll became clearer and clearer.
The market town disappeared, and the buildings below and the surrounding rocky roads all disappeared, leaving behind a mirror-like surface.
The entire area was transferred into the painting and became a false 'person in the painting'.
Gurgling
A bubble suddenly appeared in the middle of the peaceful moonlight, followed by a cloud. The dark night sky was torn apart by this sudden breath, leaving a gap, and the sunlight outside shone in.
Yue Zun, who was folding the scroll, frowned slightly and looked towards the black clouds.
"Why implicate an innocent person?"
An old voice came from the black cloud, and a pitch-black axe spread out from the black cloud and chopped towards Yue Zun's palm.
bite!!
The axe was extremely fast and arrived in an instant. The axe blade chopped Yue Zun's fingers, making a crisp sound.
No ripples, no explosions.
There was only a slight sound.
The surrounding scenes distorted irregularly, and the scroll that was about to fly into Yue Zun's hands flickered again, and a crack appeared on the scroll.
The three gods trapped inside began to struggle desperately, trying to escape.
The Ku Chai Master, dressed in coarse linen, walked out of the clouds. His figure gradually solidified, transforming from illusion into reality. He was carrying a bundle of firewood on his back and holding an axe in his left hand, with blood still dripping from the axe blade.
Yue Zun raised her palm and looked at the wound on her fingertips that was split by the axe, with a flash of moonlight in her eyes. The dripping blood flowed back in a way that defied common sense and returned to her body, and the wound on her fingertips also healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Who gave you the courage?”
Looking at Venerable Kuchai walking out from the opposite side, Yue Zun reached out and took a hairpin from his hair.
"Standing in front of me?"
Yue Zun raised his right hand and drew a line towards Kuchai Zun. Moonlight fell, forming a long river, rushing down from above. The void that was previously opened by Kuchai Zun closed again, and a stronger force enveloped it.
Venerable Kuchai’s expression became even more bitter.
He naturally knew that he was no match for Yue Zun.
But when the other party appeared in the territory of the Ancient God Sect, he had to take action. This is the sadness of the weak, because they had no choice from the beginning.
"Fuck!"
Venerable Kuchai gripped the axe handle tightly, and a gray airflow spread up his arm.
With a fierce swing of his right arm, a crescent-shaped crack cut through the place where the axe blade slipped, leaving a long cut that collided with the attack from Yue Zun above.
The two forces collided and annihilated.
In less than three breaths, the crack created by Venerable Kuchai was obliterated by the long river. The illusory water flow rushed down, submerging everything below in a reverse situation. Venerable Kuchai groaned, and was washed backwards by the river. A crack also appeared on the axe in his hand.
Tear it apart!
There was a sound of cloth breaking, and the scroll that Yue Zun had collected in the sky was torn apart. Ku Chai Zun grabbed the half that was close to him, and with the force of Yue Zun's attack, he disappeared at the fastest speed.
Yue Zun withdrew his hand and put the hairpin back on top of his head.
He glanced at the half-remaining scroll in his hand, and turned expressionlessly to fly towards the Star Gate. On the scroll, the three trapped Divine Transformation monks looked at the direction where the Kuchai Venerable had fled with despair on their faces, and their expressions solidified little by little until they were completely frozen.
“Ahem.”
The back mountain of the ancient Shenzong.
After the appearance of Ku Chai Zun, he immediately started to cough violently, blood came up and flowed down the corners of his mouth, and his face became extremely pale. His internal organs were in chaos, and a section of the long river that Yue Zun had slid down rushed into his body.
Fighting at the Return to Void level was more dangerous than fighting at the Refining Qi level. Even though he was a physical cultivator, he was unable to gain an advantage in this fight. A gap was knocked out of his natal spiritual weapon by Yue Zun's hairpin, and his own 'magic' was completely crushed by Yue Zun, but fortunately he managed to snatch back half of the scroll at the last moment and saved some face.
"The Dao Sect returns to the void."
Venerable Kuchai suppressed the injuries in his body and expelled the river water that had invaded his body bit by bit.
The turbid river water quickly vaporized and disappeared after leaving the body.
This river itself does not exist, and it was Yue Zun who pulled it out of nothingness.
The transformation from the real to the virtual is the most commonly used fighting method in the Return to the Void Realm.
The axe blade that the Ku Chai Master had chopped out earlier was also fake, but the power of returning to the void turned it from fake to real. If a cultivator below the Return to the Void Realm was hit by it, the damage would become real.
He glanced at the scroll he had snatched back. It was full of ordinary people trapped in the market. He didn't save any of the three great gods who had fled to the Ancient God Sect. But this was expected. The three great ancestors of the Star Sect were all in the late stage of returning to the void, two realms behind him. There was also a gap of "Tao" in between. He was able to fight with the other party for two moves, which was already an extraordinary performance. If it were someone else, he would probably be trapped in the river by Yue Zun before he even had a chance to speak, and rushed into the scroll and turned into an ink man.
"Go ahead."
He stretched out his hand and threw the scroll in his hand away. The torn scroll flew out from the back mountain and landed in an uninhabited wasteland.
In the reflection of the sun, the painting appears.
Boom!
Landform changes.
The buildings that disappeared in the market appeared on this wasteland, and the rocks and roads that were drawn into the painting also emerged. The illusion was revealed, and returned to reality. Those who were frozen in time also came back to their senses, looking around blankly, not knowing what had happened.
"What's going on? How come the sun has set so much all of a sudden?"
"Is it evening already?"
"A memory is missing!"
The crowd gradually came to their senses and realized something was wrong. They all looked panicked, and some even flew out of the market quickly, only to be shocked after flying a distance along the road.
At the end of the Fangshi Road is a barren mountain.
Except for the roads near the market, everything further away had changed. The entire market, such a large area, seemed to have been moved by gods. Recalling the few scenes seen at the last moment, some people guessed what had happened.
This is a battle between powerful people!
Being able to influence such a large area is definitely not something that a Jindan or Yuanying cultivator can do. One must be at least a Shenhua cultivator, or possibly even higher.
There were quite a few smart people in the world of immortal cultivation. Some who had figured out the cause and effect immediately left the market, not even wanting the things they had bought. The remaining people who stayed here also began to pack up their things, ready to run away with them.
Half a day later, this market, which was once the most prosperous market in the marginal area, became visibly desolate.
Except for a few who were unwilling to leave, the rest all fled.
The sun sets and night falls.
The Kuchai Master sat on the top of the mountain, took out a pill from the gourd on his waist and swallowed it. The injury caused by Yue Zun was more serious than he expected. The most troublesome thing was the residual power. These powers were like poisons, incompatible with the original "Tao" of the Kuchai Master, and constantly gnawed at his vitality.
After the power of the elixir enters the body, it quickly melts and turns into a warm current that travels throughout the body.
“Ahem!”
A wisp of water vapor flowed down his trachea and was coughed out by the Ku Chai Master, along with blood. A little bit of silver moonlight mixed in the blood, like tiny silver needles.
"teacher?"
As footsteps were heard, Chen Luo looked at the Ku Chai Venerable in front of him. The two medicine boy brains in the external brain quickly emerged.
'The empty method enters the body, and the internal organs become unstable.'
'The Taoism and the Fa conflict, and the soul is damaged.'
Chen Luo could see through Venerable Kuchai's condition without him saying anything.
The Venerable Kuchai at this moment was completely different from the one Chen Luo had met before. He had an air of decadence, like an old man who was about to die, which made Chen Luo feel a little scared.
Venerable Kuchai is a Return to Void cultivator!
Only a strong person of the same realm could cause him such a severe blow. In the areas where the two major sects, Ancient God Sect and Star Sect, were located, the number of people who met the conditions could be counted on one hand. So Chen Luo could guess what happened without thinking.
Venerable Kuchai should have been fighting against one of the three ancestors of the Sun, Moon and Star of the Qunxing Sect.
"The pill has formed?"
After coughing, Venerable Kuchai looked at Chen Luo in front of him. After sensing the aura of Dan Jin on him, he couldn't help but smile.
This boy was the one he chose to succeed him.
This kid has the shadow of his dead apprentice Ranhuo, as well as his own shadow. Although Le Qingzhu repeatedly emphasized to him that there is no fate without reason in this world, and Chen Luo is a problem. But he still believes in his intuition and believes in the fleeting "fate".
This is the biggest secret in Venerable Kuchai's heart.
Everyone in the outside world knows that Venerable Kuchai was born as a casual cultivator. With his extraordinary qualifications, he broke through and became Venerable Fanxu without comprehending the "Tao".
But only he himself knew that he had actually comprehended the "Tao".
Even his younger brother Kuzhu didn't know about this.
The senior who led him to comprehend the Tao had the same aura as Chen Luo. It was precisely because of this aura that the Venerable Ku Chai accepted Chen Luo as his disciple, because he believed in him.
This is his - fate!
"I had some insights a while ago, and I made a breakthrough."
During the sect competition, Chen Luo announced that he would be in seclusion to break through. Now that so much time has passed, it is reasonable for him to break through to the Jindan realm. (End of this chapter)
