TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY, I CULTIVATE USING QI LUCK

Chapter 1287: Chapter 509: The Three Statutory Evils_3 Chapter 1287: Chapter 509: The Three Statutory Evils_3 The remaining True Persons, watching the two Emperor Immortals leave in a streak of light, glanced at each other and, in a flash, they transformed into streaming rays of light, heading in the directions they each desired.

Zhu Zhenghe was one of them.

The direction he chose was towards the west, close to the territory of Youshan Country.

As he flew, his heart ached.

“Hosting a Ghost-Exorcising Ceremony is one thing, but why drag us into subduing demons and exorcising monsters?”

“That Master Song, always stirring up unnecessary trouble; the Qing Immortal Sect has already withdrawn from the Southern Domain, yet he still interferes.

And that Taiping Dao, using the Dharma Assembly as a cover to pursue their own selfish aims, utterly shameless, the most shameless of them all!”

Zhu Zhenghe constantly cursed under his breath, filled with resentment.

However, it wasn’t without reason.

What was the situation in Xiaye Country previously?

It was a battleground for supremacy between Xuan Turtle Mountain and Jiuchuan Demon Country, each supporting their own Demon Kings and Ghost Kings in an open and secret struggle for dominance.

In other words, for Xuan Turtle Mountain to sustain such a long contest in the Xiaye Country, their influence there was naturally not ordinary.

And indeed it was so.

At least one-third of the Demon Kings and Ghost Kings in Xiaye Country were aligned with Xuan Turtle Mountain.

These Demon Kings and Ghost Kings were the Spiritual Beasts and Dao soldiers they had released, cultivated with great care to be the foundation of the sect.

Now Song Xiren and Qing Guanzi, with a word here and a comment there, were set on exterminating all the demons and monsters in Xiaye Country.

Wasn’t that akin to killing the Spiritual Beasts and Dao soldiers of Xuan Turtle Mountain?

And on top of that, vanquishing demons and exorcising monsters was indeed the righteous path of the Immortal Sects.

Even knowing that such actions would harm the interests of Xuan Turtle Mountain, Zhu Zhenghe still could not voice his objections; he even had to agree with a smile.

How could he possibly be happy about this?

Therefore, as soon as he left with the others, his pent-up anger and resentment burst forth.

But even so, Zhu Zhenghe didn’t have much time to dwell on these emotions.

Because he needed to find Xuan Turtle Mountain’s demons and monsters before the other True Persons carried out their exorcisms and exterminations, and allow them to retreat in advance, to escape this imminent catastrophe.

“The spiritual messages have been sent out; the Spiritual Beasts and Dao soldiers from our sect should have received them by now.

I hope they can make it in time to escape from this place.

May the loss to Xuan Turtle Mountain this time be minimized, and may we preserve more of our vitality,” he thought.

Zhu Zhenghe flew toward the closest location of his sect’s Spiritual Beasts, praying silently in his heart, then couldn’t help but curse again, “That Taiping Dao, truly a disaster.

Ever since they arrived, our sect has never encountered any good fortune, utterly detestable.”

While he was cursing to himself, the targets of his curses, Qing Guanzi and Song Xiren, had already arrived in Greedy Belly City.

“Is this Greedy Belly City?”

Qing Guanzi looked at the deserted city below, furrowing his brow slightly.

Below, the streets of the city were empty, void of any sign of life.

Not only were there no living people, but even the monsters and demons had vanished without a trace.

No, to be more precise, some traces were left behind.

Because on the streets within the city, there were quite a few desiccated and lifeless remains, both human beings and demons alike, each one having lost its soul and had its essence blood sucked dry.

Without a doubt, all living beings in the city had perished.

“Stealing souls and sucking the essence blood are the methods of ghosts,”

Song Xiren also observed the situation below and couldn’t help but comment, “Not just humans, even demons were harmed.

These ghosts from Huangquan are relentless; they don’t just target humans—they spare no living creature, or rather, they do not let any living being escape.

Their ferocity exceeds even that of demons.”

In the hands of demons, humans may still serve as livestock to ensure a supply of blood; there exists a slim chance of survival.

But in the clutches of ghosts, it’s all about soul-sucking and blood-draining, an undoubted death sentence.

The hatred of those undead for the living is almost ingrained in their souls, impossible to eradicate.

This situation is particularly dire in the Yellow Springs Underworld, where living humans are non-existent.

For the ghosts there to survive and maintain their sanity, they can only devour and slaughter each other, consuming one another.

What kind of temperament can you expect from those who emerge from such a terrible environment?

Only those ghosts that have mingled among humans and fed sufficiently on human souls to regain their sanity turn out to be better off.

Because food is plentiful and there is no need to struggle for survival, they naturally become less aggressive.

A full granary enables one to observe decorum.

Although describing the relationship between ghosts and humans in this way is somewhat abstract, the principle is the same.

Well-fed, the ghosts are no longer hungry; with emotional needs and in a good mood, they are naturally more willing to reason with humans.

Don’t believe me?

Look at those unfinished tales of human and ghost affection; don’t they occur only among the living?

In the Underworld, do you see ghosts falling in love with humans?

A human in such a place is like a sheep in a den of starving wolves—simply unable to survive, let alone entertain love.

Even romances in the human world,

The love between a female ghost and a Scholar typically persists only with the misfortune of other humans as a backdrop.

Ghosts definitely need to feed on humans; since they don’t eat you, then others must sustain their existence.

Or perhaps both must be met.

Some are less scrupulous, engaging in romance while concurrently consuming you—such ghosts also exist.

In that regard, Song Xiren saying that ghosts are more ferocious than demons, indeed makes sense.

“What you say is true, Fellow Daoist; precisely because of this, the Yellow Springs Underworld must be eradicated.

If we allow the gathering of ghosts within to escalate and become influential, they will become a great enemy to all living beings.

The entrance to the Yellow Springs Underworld is right here, inside this city.”

Qing Guanzi activated his Dharma Eye and scanned the interior of Greedy Belly City time and again, but unable to find anything, he gave up, turned around, and asked, “My knowledge of Huangquan is limited, and I have never encountered it before.

I couldn’t find it; do you, Fellow Daoist, have any findings?”

Hearing this, Song Xiren couldn’t help but laugh, “It’s normal that Fellow Daoist cannot find it.

We refer to the Yellow Springs Underworld as Yin World, distinguishing it from the Yang World in which we reside.

Hence the term ‘Two Realms.’

Since they are two separate worlds, ordinary Divine Powers naturally cannot penetrate the barrier between these worlds.

Special means are required to bridge the Two Realms and locate the entrance to the Yin World.

This matter was already on my mind when I arrived, and I came prepared; Fellow Daoist need not worry.”
