Chapter 163 - Each With an Ulterior Motive

At the same time, somewhere in the Kuiyin Mountains.

"How is it? What does brother Taibai think of this proposal?"

"You want me to betray Blue Cloud Mountain? Impossible!"

"Haha, betrayal?" The figure in the blood mist laughed wildly, "It seems that your Excellency is too forgetful. Last time, we confided in a letter to ambush Ouyang Qin, if it spread out that you harmed a fellow member, would it be considered a betrayal to Blue Cloud Mountain?"

Taibai Sword Immortal's expression sank and his temperament of a Righteous Dao expert disappeared. His originally handsome face looked a bit distorted, he said sharply, "Blood Demon Ancestor, you dare to threaten me?"

"Brother Zhang is too serious. Hey, why are you looking at me with this expression? Do you want to kill someone?" The Blood Demon Ancestor pretended to be amazed, but his face was full of mockery, "I am afraid it can't be brother Zhang's intention. Even if my cultivation is lower than yours, the difference will not be too much. I may not be able to win, but you won't be able to stop me if I want to leave. Besides, Extreme Demon Venerable also knows this matter. Can brother Zhang face him? So will you still kill me?"

"You..." Taibai Sword Immortal's chest rose and fell sharply, obviously furious, but after a few breaths, he gradually calmed down and said coldly, "Blood demon, just say what you want."

"As I've said before, as long as brother Zhang defects out of Blue Cloud Mountain and joins my Extreme Demon Cave, we'd be a family."

"This can't be done."

Taibai Sword Immortal thought about it and refused again. Although in recent years, the power of the Demonic Dao has been greatly expanded. Still, its foundation is shallow, and it was incomparable with the accumulation of the Big Three for thousands of years, not to mention that he has a high position in Blue Cloud Mountain. It wouldn't take long for his senior brother the Sect Master, to enter seclusion and try to condense the Nascent Soul, regardless of success or failure, they would choose another head. The person most likely to sit in this position is himself.

In the eyes of outsiders, Taibai Sword Immortal was a person of integrity. But in fact, he was more greedy for fortune and fame than the average person. Naturally, he was unwilling to let go of his bright future and go to the small Demonic Dao.

However, after this rejection, the Blood Demon Ancestor was not angry but instead seemed to have expected the other party's answer. He smiled strangely: "Brother Zhang is not willing to accept our good intentions, but looks down on my Extreme Demon Cave. It is no wonder that although my sect's strength has risen sharply since the Extreme Demon Venerable had entered a higher realm of cultivation. but after all, it's far from the strength of Blue Cloud Mountain. But what you see is only the surface..."

"The surface?"

"That's right!" The Blood Demon Ancestor looked solemn and scanned around with his Spiritual Sense. Then his lips moved slightly and his voice was transmitted.

After a while...

The face of Taibai Sword Immortal revealed his doubts, and he pondered silently.

Blood Demon said, "Brother Zhang if you're willing to defect. Not only will the position of deputy sect Master be yours, but the Heavenly Dust Pill will also be given to you."

"Is this true?"

"There is no falsehood."

After listening to the other party's words, Taibai Sword Immortal's expression was uncertain. The Blood demon Ancestor was not in a hurry but waited aside with a strange smile.

"Ok!"

After a while, Taibai Sword Immortal raised his head and a glimmer flashed across his eyes: "But please tell the Demon Venerable, not to forget his promise to Zhang."

Listening to the other party's promise, the Blood Demon Ancestor was ecstatic and immediately patted the chest to ensure: "Brother Zhang rest assured, the Demon Venerable is true to his words. But although you've become our Daoist Friend, please stay in Blue Cloud Mountain for the time being."

"No problem." Zhang Taibai answered very readily.

"In that case, Qian Mou will leave first. If there is a need, you can contact me with this." The Blood Demon Ancestor flicked his sleeve, and a cloud of blood flew out, not knowing what was wrapped inside. Taibai Sword Immortal did not hesitate. And put it in his storage bracelet.

The Blood Demon Ancestor was very satisfied and flew to the sky amidst wild laughter.

Looking at his back, moving far away. The smile on Zhang Taibai's face disappeared, replaced by a sullen expression.

Damn it, these cultivators dare to intimidate me with what happened last time.

However, if what the Blood Demon said is true, joining the Extreme Demon Cave is not a wise choice.

But does he think he's got something on him?

There was a sneer at the corner of Zhang Taibai's mouth. He had to trade with the Extreme Demon Venerable for the sake of the Blue Sea Weed, but he already knew that these people in the Demonic Dao are difficult to deal with. Even if the things he did to Ouyang Qin could be uncovered, he couldn't help himself.

However, the conditions offered by the Extreme Demon's Venerable are still very attractive. The Heavenly Dust Pill. If he can get a pill of this Spirit Medicine, there's good hope of condensing a Nascent Soul himself.

Taibai Sword Immortal was extremely arrogant and talented, but throughout the ages, Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were too scarce, and he had no confidence. However, with the help of the Heavenly Dust Pill, the situation would be different.

It was beautifully thought that a ray of light rose in the direction of the southeast.

"Hmm, a red glow, it seems that Ouyang Qin is in trouble."

Taibai Sword Immortal was startled at first, and then he revealed an expression of joy. If that last matter was exposed, the sect would not ruin its own reputation, but he would surely become a mortal enemy with Ouyang Qin, and by her attitude towards him, he doesn't know if she noticed something.

It would be best to get rid of this woman at the hands of others.

If it could make Ouyang Qin call for help, it was certainly not the Hundred Poison Boy who's in the Core Formation Early Stage, and the Blood Demon Ancestor was just with him a little while ago, then the opponent she met is someone else.

Red-Eyed Old Ghost!

This was a demonic cultivator of the Core Formation Late Stage, even he'd be apprehensive if he encountered him. Although Ouyang Qin's Sonic Technique is powerful, it would be a slim chance for her to survive!

Thinking of this, Zhang Taibai's face showed a cruel smile, muttering to himself: "Junior sister Ouyang, don't blame this brother for not saving you, I don't want to have another opponent in the Core Formation Stage. Anything that might be a threat to me must be removed."

Afterward, he turned into a light and flew in the opposite direction of the red glow.

...

"Hehe, it seems that you're not the only Core Formation Stage cultivator who's in trouble!"

In another part of the dense forest of the mountains, Master Fenglei of Yixian Valley collided with the Hundred Poison Boy. The cultivation of the two men was only at the Core Formation Early Sage, but the Hundred Poison Boy's strange Poison Arts bound Master Fenglei's hands and feet. And he was caught in the midst of a bitter fight.

Originally, he also wanted to send a signal to ask for help but did not expect to see the gorgeous red glow of Ouyang Qin.

"Don't be proud, you want to trap me with just a few poisonous insects?"

Master Fenglei gritted his teeth and shook his arms, Two swords one green and the other red flew out. The swords emitted some very bright light in the sky, and the sword lights poured down like rain.

Under such a terrible attack. After being hit by Master Fenglei's technique, the several weird poisonous insects wailed before being cut into pieces.

The smile on the Hundred Poison Boy's small face disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by murderous intent: "Bold, you actually dared to hurt this lord's treasures, it seems that you are too impatient for your death"

He opened his mouth and spat out some dark green smoke, which then quickly expanded, in the blink of an eye it grew into a few meters radius. It then quickly rushed over.

Master Feng Lei would naturally not show weakness. The blue and red sword lights wrapped around his body and greeted it without hesitation.

The rumbling sounded in an endless fashion, and it was quite a great battle.

...

By the side of a stream.

A pair of dual cultivators monks were resting. Both of them looked like ordinary humans. However, their cultivation base was terrifyingly high, it was the pair of cultivators in the Core Formation Stage from Thunder Cloud Mountain.

"Hey, it's a signal for help, it seems that the Ouyang Fairy of Blue Cloud Mountain has met some trouble."

"Wait. Brother De, what are you doing?"

The male cultivator stopped and turned his head: "Sister Yun, what happened? It's of course to save Fairy Ouyang, and our three factions are all of the same Righteous Dao, not to mention the order issued by Uncle Master and the elders... "

"You, you're really such a rough old man. So honest." The female cultivator gave him a blank look.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, you don't even want to stop and think. In the past few years, especially after having a second Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, Blue Cloud Mountain has been quite arrogant and domineering, and they don't even put the other two factions in their eyes. The female cultivation calmly sat down by the stream and stopped her husband from saving people: "And I heard that the current head of Blue Cloud Mountain is about to a condense Nascent Soul. If he succeeds, then The balance of power in the Righteous Path would be broken. It is not a good thing for our Thunder Cloud Mountain!"

"Sister Yun, you mean..." The male cultivator showed a thoughtful look.

"Yes, Uncle Master's edict is just for appearances. How could he possibly hope that the Blue Cloud Mountain would come back in one piece, and a Core Formation Stage cultivator is also the backbone of our Big Three. I heard that Ouyang Qin has excellent innate talent. Falling here is a blessing to the sect!"

Cheng Hao nodded, but he still had some concerns: "Sister Yun is right, but one day, the Heavenly Dust Pill may fall into the hands of the Demonic Cultivators."

"Rest assured. This manpower shortage is because the matter with the Demon Lord was too sudden. At the latest tomorrow, elite reinforcements will be sent from the sect. In any case, we will not let the demonic cultivators take advantage."

"Okay, then what should we do Sister Yun?"

"Nothing, it's okay to abandon her. Even if Blue Cloud Mountain traces it back to us in the future, we will say that a demonic cultivator had us entangled and we couldn't get away. At that time what can they do to us?"

The two laughed and sat down on the grass.

...

The three giants of the Righteous Path all have their own motives. And demonic cultivators are different. Therefore, after seeing the bright red glow, they did not go to help at all and just sneered. Then they each went on to do their own things.

As for the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage?

They are not idiots. How can they interfere in matters involving battles between Core Formation Stage cultivators? Even if they happened to be nearby, they immediately turned around and left.

...

"Ouyang Qin, don't waste any effort, no one will save you, just be caught obediently, this old man will not kill you."

Ouyang Qin bit her lips. Her face was as cold as ice. Half an hour has passed since meeting the old demon, but the so-called reinforcements have not yet arrived. To be honest, not even a shadow could be seen. She did not believe that all the Core Formation Stage Masters of the Righteous Path have all encountered trouble, then there is only one possibility left...

Ouyang Qin thought sadly and indignantly, but suddenly her body softened, and she could not help but be shocked. She knew that her heart was shaken just now and that she was hit by the old demon's Soul Stimulating Sound.

This kind of mental attack seems to be invisible, but it was in fact the most dangerous. She quickly bites her tongue and wakes up from the severe pain. It was quite dangerous.

On the other hand, the Red-Eyed Old Ghost also secretly cried out in pity. Although Ouyang Qin was in the Core Formation Early Stage, it was even more difficult than imagined. It was no wonder that Master Miao fell into her hands.

Mental Cultivation Methods are one of the best choices. It was not impossible for her to condense a Nascent Soul.

Thinking of this, a killing intent flashed on the old demon's face. His eyes were only slightly red before, but now, they are completely red, and even more surprising, the two eyes keep getting bigger. Soon, it took up two-thirds of the entire face.

Ouyang Qin was stunned, and naturally, she would not let him cast his spell easily. Her jade finger plucked the strings of her musical instrument. With the beat of the music, one bird after another flew out of thin air.

These birds were only the size of a fist, but their claws and teeth are sharp, and their bodies exuded an amazing aura.

"Oh, Ling Xiang bird, you are able to find so many souls of this Spirit Beast."

The Red-Eyed Old Ghost laughed, but Lin Xuan could hear that his voice contained a hint of jealousy. Then, countless beads of red light emerged from his strange eyes, and it then turned into a strange crimson snake, which greeted the Ling Xiang Birds.

The Spiritual Qi fluctuated in the sky, and the red snake and the birds began biting each other. Lin Xuan stood in a place not far away, and his eyes flickered, unknown what he was thinking.

The mantis catches the cicada, not knowing of the oriole behind, the three did not notice, just in the jungle behind them, there were a pair of strange eyes, watching the three people. And by looking at the strange figure, it was a fusion of a cultivator and a Moon Demon Spider.

It was that bizarre monster…
