Chapter 1106: Chapter 889: Yellow Spring
After the people of the Demon Sect withdrew far away, both Hong Zhong and the Zuo sisters had already released their True Form Release and Fusion.
Everyone’s faces were pale, and they had all taken superior level elixirs to restore their Star Power and heal their injuries.
Zuo Xiaodan asked, "Hong Zhong, do you still want to go back and take a look at the Dragon Vein?"
Hong Zhong shook his head: "Things have come to this point, with our current state, we can’t hold the Dragon Vein steadily. If that Great Demon targets us again, it may not be easy to leave.
Moreover, now that Fu Chaosheng has also arrived, it’s a ’Demon Extermination’ opportunity for him."
Zuo Xiaodan and Zuo Xiaoqian nodded in agreement, realizing that the sword hero Fu Chaosheng pursued not only ’Slaying Demons’ but also ’Demon Extermination’!
Beside them, Hou Hai said, "Besides that Chongyang Realm, now with Fu Chaosheng’s arrival, it’s uncertain whether those Great Demons can ultimately occupy the Dragon Vein."
Upon hearing this, Hong Zhong suddenly recalled the silver-haired youth of the Chongyang Realm who had slain the Nine Infants.
Though at that time, the Nine Infants had lost two clones to the Yin Yang Flowing Light Scissors, that silver-haired youth was still capable of holding off Xiang Liu, truly astonishing strength.
Hong Zhong shook his head, saying: "The Taishang Sect being pursued by Shan Zhi will undoubtedly suffer heavy casualties. However, we shouldn’t stay here for long either. Let’s part ways here, fellow Daoists."
The Zuo sisters and Hou Hai all nodded in response.
Afterwards, the three Great Demon Sects parted ways, each returning to their respective sects.
After a while, the space in the field twisted slightly, and then a translucent water light emerged, gradually transforming into a yellow-faced youth.
"They’ve split up..."
Ma Liang glanced around, his gaze sweeping across the three directions before eventually settling on the direction of the Limitless Demon Sect, curling his lips and hiding his figure once more to pursue.
"Sister, let’s find a place to rest for a while and recover first," Zuo Xiaoqian suggested.
Zuo Xiaodan scanned the surroundings and nodded: "Alright, let’s head to that big mountain up ahead."
Having flown this far, the fierce beasts of Qixia Mountain are still busy vying for the Dragon Vein, unable to bother with us.
Recovering strength as quickly as possible is necessary to handle whatever may come next.
The Zuo sisters and some remaining Burning Sun Experts landed on the mountaintop, placing a few people on guard around them while the group swiftly settled down to recuperate.
"Alchemy Saintess, as agreed, the other disciples will be divided into several groups led by Full Moon Level elders to return to the sect on their own," reported a Chongyang Realm elder next to Zuo Xiaodan.
"Good."
Zuo Xiaodan looked at the Sun Ring on her wrist, deep in thought.
Despite the appearance of fierce beasts like Nine Infant Xiang Liu along the way, causing many twists and turns,
Dongfang Yi failed to ascend to the King Level, and unexpectedly, either Dongfang Yi or Ye Shuying would undoubtedly die, or perhaps even both, leading to significant casualties among the Taishang Sect’s experts!
The outcome aligns with expectations, and the next step is to handle the successive Dragon Vein manifestations...
As Zuo Xiaodan pondered, Zuo Xiaoqian, who was seated with her eyes closed, suddenly sensed something.
"Hmm?!" Zuo Xiaoqian abruptly stood up, warily scanning the surroundings.
"What’s wrong, sister?" Zuo Xiaodan immediately asked in a tense voice.
"It feels like something is surrounding us..."
"Drip...!"
Suddenly, a raindrop fell, landing near the two women’s feet.
"Drip, drip..." The raindrops fell more and more.
In an instant, the pupils of the two women shrank, and Sun and Moon Radiance appeared in their eyes as they looked upward.
At first glance, there seemed to be nothing, but with their pupil skill, they saw an ocean of invisible water surging like a heavenly curtain hanging high above!
In the next moment, the water from the great river in the sky transformed into a turbulent Netherworld deluge, crashing down violently!
"What?!"
"What’s going on!"
"Someone is attacking!"
"..."
The experts of the Limitless Demon Sect were shocked to see the Netherworld Water pouring down from the sky.
"Quick, dodge!!" Zuo Xiaodan shouted urgently.
But the Heavenly Water covered an expanse of a hundred miles like a canopy, leaving nowhere to escape!
In an instant, the raging Netherworld flood engulfed everyone.
The crowd invoked their protective spiritual light, casting various spells.
Yet within the tumultuous Netherworld Water, all spells diminished in potency as if extinguished, easily crushed one after another.
The numerous Burning Sun Experts, weary from many battles, now struggled helplessly like drowning dogs, succumbing one after another in the Netherworld Water without a sound.
Zuo Xiaodan sensed immense danger and immediately called out: "Sister, Fusion!"
"Sun and Moon Shining Together!"
The dim sunlight and moonlight on the two women’s bodies each brightened, about to forcefully initiate the Fusion Technique again.
However, at this moment, the surge of Netherworld Water suddenly shook both of their souls, making them feel as if their souls were out of their bodies and beyond their control!
As is known, the crucial aspect of the Fusion Technique is the alignment of the soul with the body. The disturbance of the Netherworld Water rendered their souls unsteady and difficult to merge.
"This Fusion Technique, you two witches shouldn’t think of using it now."
The Zuo sisters looked forward at the yellow-faced youth within the Netherworld, their faces suddenly darkening.
"So it’s you, Ma Liang, you seek death!"
The two focused their thoughts, and the Sun Ring and Moon Pendant in their hands flew up, intertwining to form the Yin Yang Flowing Light Scissors that sliced through Ma Liang.
However, with a "snap," Ma Liang’s severed body exploded into a mass of water light.
Zuo Xiaoqian frowned: "A clone!"
Soon, within the Yellow Springs River, not one, but hundreds of Ma Liang appeared!
"The Yin Yang Flowing Light Scissors are truly formidable."
"I’ve already witnessed it."
"I won’t let it attack me easily."
"If you can pinpoint the true body."
"Perhaps you still have a chance to turn the tide."
One "Ma Liang" after another spoke in succession, each one vividly lifelike, indistinguishable between real and fake!
But the Zuo sisters wield the Yin Yang Flowing Light Scissors, an offensive weapon, and have encountered opponents skilled in cloning before; they have countermeasures prepared.
The two sisters reached into their eyes, suddenly each pulling out an eyeball.
The two eyeballs flew to the middle between them, in the sunlight and moonlight, they merged into one, emitting divine light, probing forward.
This technique is called Yin Yang Divine Pupil, capable of seeing through transformations, Star Power, and even souls.
However, after the examination by the Divine Pupil, the sisters’ expressions became increasingly grave.
Until finally, all the clones of Ma Liang, not only were their energy identical, but even their soul fluctuations showed no difference!
"Damn it!"
Zuo Xiaodan covered her left eye and shouted angrily.
The sisters’ hearts sank simultaneously.
All of Ma Liang’s clones grinned and spoke in unison:
"But if you can’t find it then..."
"Let’s die together!"
Suddenly, all of Ma Liang’s clones charged together!
"Boom!"
From afar, the descending Netherworld Water swept through the mountains, surging continuously!
Within the Netherworld Water, a fierce flicker of gold and silver light could be seen, sometimes even cutting a gap through the Netherworld River.
Yet the Netherworld Water surged unceasingly, more waves rushed forward, soon sealing the gap.
Time slowly passed, and the Star Power Fluctuation within the Netherworld River grew increasingly faint...
Until finally, it fell completely silent!
The surging Netherworld Water turned around, converging at a certain spot in the mountains.
It turned out, Ma Liang’s true form was always here!
"Once I return and absorb so many top-tier souls, not only will my cultivation rise again, but I should also be able to cultivate the Six Paths of Netherworld technique to Divine Skills level..."
Ma Liang’s mouth curled up as he collected the souls-entwined Netherworld Water into his sleeves, his eyes filled with delight.
Once the Netherworld Water was completely gathered, Ma Liang held two handfuls of dim Flowing Light.
"Yin Yang Flowing Light!"
Ma Liang couldn’t help but rejoice in his heart; this is a rare Pseudo Saint Artifact that can be used in unity, the reason he chose this side was also due to this treasure.
"Unfortunately, at the moment I can only use the Yin Flow Light. If I could obtain the Fire Element Treasure, I could restore the power of this treasure!"
Ma Liang nodded in satisfaction, immediately storing the Yin Yang Flowing Light Scissors away.
"Aren’t you afraid of the Limitless Demon Sect hunting you down?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind Ma Liang.
A figure emerged from behind, unexpectedly it was Hou Hai from the Blood Evil Sect!
Ma Liang seemed to have anticipated Hou Hai’s presence, showing no surprise, and said to himself:
"In the midst of disaster, life and death are fated, if you are outmatched, you die, why worry too much? It’s best to enhance my strength early to compete in the future, besides..."
Ma Liang turned around to look at Hou Hai, smiled and said, "Besides, with the things I ’offered,’ the Blood Evil Sect should easily protect me in conflicts below King Level, right?"
Hou Hai raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
In truth, the Blood Evil Sect has many secrets unknown to outsiders.
Besides the Blood and Evil veins, there’s another vein within the Blood Evil Sect, even more core than Blood and Evil—Netherworld!
In ancient times, the Blood Evil Sect was known as the Netherworld Sect.
Back then, the Netherworld Sect was a super sect akin to the Taishang Sect or Demon Sky Palace.
However, later on, the Netherworld Vein mysteriously vanished entirely, even its Legacy Land went missing, leading to the Netherworld Sect’s disappearance.
Only the Blood and Evil veins were passed down, rising again in the modern era, becoming the current Blood Evil Sect.
Now, Ma Liang has inherited part of the Netherworld Vein, originating from the same source as the Blood Evil Sect, long since having been personally "interviewed" by the Blood Evil Sect’s leaders.
Ma Liang understood the situation, surrendered several important items related to the Netherworld Sect.
However, the Netherworld Demon Sect mostly wanted books and similar materials, personal cultivation necessities weren’t forcibly taken by the Blood Evil Sect.
After all, Ma Liang, as the sole inheritor of the Netherworld Vein over countless years, is also considered half a disciple of the Blood Evil Sect himself.
Such as Life Soul Divine Water, Six Paths of Netherworld, and more...
"Next, are you returning to the Blood Evil Sect?" Hou Hai asked Ma Liang, continuing, "If you join the Blood Evil Sect, the sect will protect you, even promote you as the first Saint Heir!"
"Return to the Blood Evil Sect, become Saint Heir?" Ma Liang laughed heartily, shaking his head, "As disasters arise, it’s the time when experts from all sides emerge, I don’t want to be constrained by the sect... Moreover, the sect can’t really help much."
Hou Hai frowned. If he became the first Saint Heir, let alone other benefits, when a Dragon Vein vacancy occurred, he would be prioritized, how could this not help much?
This Ma Liang proves to be truly unpredictable!
Yet, his methods are indeed ruthless, even the Sun and Moon Twins from the Limitless Demon Sect died by his hands...
"Take care of yourself then!" Hou Hai said no more, directly flying away from the scene.
Ma Liang watched Hou Hai depart, his eyes reflecting a thoughtful expression.
"The Blood Evil Sect can still be relied upon at crucial moments, but next is refining these souls."
"However, over at Qixia Mountain, Fierce Beasts are appearing, Fu Chaosheng is coming, along with the Chongyang Realm that slew Nine Infants..."
"I wonder what the situation with the Dragon Vein is, before cultivating, perhaps I’ll go take a look first."
Thinking this, Ma Liang’s mouth curled, and with a flash of water light around him, he headed off into the distance...
