"If it were ten or twenty years earlier, Young Master Qi could still be saved, but now the demon's soul has merged with his soul and they can't be separated."
Upon hearing this answer, Qi Yun was extremely disappointed.
boom!
The entire cave shook violently, and the inside of the Mingyu Cauldron was rumbling. The cracks on the cauldron were widening.
Ayao didn't want this immortal artifact to be completely destroyed. She scanned it with her divine sense and saw that Qi Shaofeng's demonic energy inside the cauldron was even stronger. His body was pounding, and his skin had turned bluish-black. He was frantically pounding the cauldron.
Ayao pointed her finger, and a spell was cast onto the Mingyu Cauldron. The runes on the Mingyu Cauldron flickered a few times, and the surrounding天地元力 (heaven and earth energy) converged towards the Mingyu Cauldron, and the cracks on the Mingyu Cauldron slowly began to heal.
Qi Yun watched this scene in astonishment.
Ming Yuding has a special method of manipulation. Lu Xiuwen taught A Yao this method before he came. Lu Xiuwen did not tell Qi Yun about this true method of manipulation back then.
What's the reason?
Why would he reveal the true method of controlling the cauldron to an outsider? A Yao is different; she is his own daughter, so he revealed the true method of controlling the Mingyu Cauldron to her.
If Lu Xiuwen had told Qi Yun the true method of controlling the Mingyu Cauldron back then, Qi Shaofeng's condition would be ten times better than it is now, and A Yao would have a way to save him. But then again, if Lu Xiuwen had known that Qi Yun wanted to use the cauldron to save Qi Shaofeng, who had been possessed by the demons, he would never have lent it to him.
Is it because Lu Xiuwen hates the Demon Clan? That's not the reason. With Qi Shaofeng dead, Qi Yun's Dao heart will inevitably be unstable. If Qi Yun shows any weakness, the other members of the Five Elements Sect will start fighting amongst themselves.
That would be so great!
Compared to the benefits Qi Yun offered him, he would much rather watch the Five Elements Sect fight amongst themselves and then take advantage of the chaos. Qi Yun also knew what kind of person Lu Xiuwen was; back then, he would rather be ripped off by Lu Xiuwen than dare to say what he wanted to do with the Mingyu Cauldron.
After A Yao finished casting a spell, she chanted a series of incantations, and blue flames immediately ignited in the Mingyu Cauldron. The flames caused Qi Shaofeng inside to let out a shrill roar.
Unmoved by the eerie screams, A Yao formed hand seals, causing a flash of spiritual light. The internal space of the Mingyu Cauldron changed, and flying swords appeared inside. She was going to kill Qi Shaofeng.
This person has been completely possessed.
"What do you want to do?" Qi Yun immediately noticed A Yao's actions and struck A Yao with a palm. The palm wind formed a huge purple handprint, carrying terrifying palm force.
As A Yao waved her hand, she also struck out with her palm. A huge handprint formed of frost collided with the purple handprint, producing a loud bang that made the entire cave tremble violently.
Looking at the furious Qi Yun, A Yao said, "He is now a demon, no longer your son. We must kill him to prevent future troubles."
In her past life, so many of her Phoenix Clan members died at the hands of the Demon Clan, even her master died at the hands of the Demon Lord. She truly hated the Demon Clan's A Yao. Qi Shaofeng was pitiful, but he was already a demon, so she was sorry. This was different from demonic cultivators, who only practiced demonic techniques and weren't true demons.
Demons are pure evil.
Azure lightning surged across A Yao's body, and the Taiqing Divine Thunder covered her entire form, concentrating in her left hand. She intended to use this Taiqing Divine Thunder to annihilate Qi Shaofeng.
Qi Yun saw through her thoughts at a glance and angrily said, "You are not allowed to kill my son!"
He suddenly appeared in front of A Yao and threw a punch, a powerful gust of wind from the fist striking her. A Yao had no choice but to dodge, and with a loud bang, the fist blast smashed a large crater in the cave wall, and the entire cave rumbled.
Qi Yun's eyes flashed with a strange light, and with a grab in the air, a long sword appeared in his hand.
Just as A Yao and Qi Yun were about to fight, a deafening roar came from inside the Mingyu Cauldron. Qi Shaofeng's eyes turned bloodshot, and veins bulged on his muscles. His power suddenly surged, and he actually opened a hole in the upper part of the Mingyu Cauldron, turning into a wisp of black mist and rushing out.
Perhaps knowing that Qi Yun and A Yao were not easy to deal with, he ignored them and immediately flew outwards.
"Young Master—"
Qi Yun shouted and, ignoring A Yao, immediately chased after them.
Ayao looked at the Mingyu Cauldron with a hole in it, waved her hand, and the Mingyu Cauldron shrank and flew towards her, which she directly absorbed into her primordial spirit.
Then, A Yao transformed into a white rainbow and chased after it.
————
Not far from the forbidden area of the Five Elements Sect, several disciples of the Five Elements Sect were on patrol when they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the forbidden area, followed by a sharp whistling sound. They looked towards the forbidden area and saw a black mist carrying an evil aura rushing towards them.
The black mist was moving too fast. Before they could react, it rushed over, wrapped around their bodies, and lifted them into the air. A few screams were heard, and within a few breaths, the disciples were turned into dried corpses and fell to the ground.
"Hahahahahaha..."
A chilling laugh echoed through the night.
Those demons below the True Immortal level are called inferior beings. This is how the demons themselves refer to themselves. And most of these inferior beings lack reason. Their instinct is simply to kill, kill, kill…
On the sea of clouds, several female disciples of the Five Elements Sect were flying on their swords when they suddenly heard a chilling laugh. An evil aura made their hair stand on end. When they turned around, they saw black mist flying towards them.
These female disciples were not highly skilled, and they were all on the verge of death.
A figure blocked the path of the female disciples; it was A Yao. Seeing that Qi Shaofeng was about to kill again, A Yao instantly bypassed Qi Yun, caught up, and stood in front of the female disciples. She pointed a finger into the void, and the Taiqing Divine Thunder shot out from her fingertip, streaks of azure lightning dancing wildly like thunder snakes.
Amidst the deafening roar of thunder, the black mist, struck by lightning, let out a shrill, furious howl.
Qi Shaofeng's figure was revealed, but apart from his face, the rest of his body was no longer human. His body was at least three times larger than before, with demonic patterns on his dark blue skin, sharp teeth and claws, and a long tail.
His face was filled with bloodlust and madness, and his blood-red eyes gleamed with an eerie, bloodthirsty light.
The Taiqing Divine Thunder is the bane of evil spirits. After being hit by the Taiqing Divine Thunder, Qi Shaofeng became afraid of the lightning swirling in A Yao's hand, turned around and transformed into black mist again, heading in another direction.
When Ayao tried to chase after him, Qiyun blocked her way.
"Sect Leader Qi, what are you doing? He's not your son anymore," A Yao said coldly.
Qi Yun couldn't accept that his son had completely turned into a demon, but he had just clearly seen those mummified corpses, and he struggled with his inner conflict. Taking advantage of this, A Yao chased after Qi Shaofeng.
