Chapter 468 Change in the Blood Sea

“Mr. Bai, is there a misunderstanding between us? Didn’t we discuss it beforehand? In the end, the Heaven Ascension Hall will listen to the Heavenly Courts. We’ll use the Soul-Refining Incantation to increase our cultivation level and even hold such a secretive gathering to create the position of Saintess… This!”

In his previous life, this was a Demonic Sect!

In the side hall of the stone hall, inside the array formation, Li Changshou sat on the wooden chair while Bai Ze stood at the side. At that moment, the expression of the ten great ancient demon generals was a little awkward…

Outside the two stone doors, the hall masters and elders of the Heaven Arrival Hall gathered and temporarily stopped what they were doing.

Jiu Jiu leaned against the light wall of the array formation and eavesdropped. Naturally, she could not hear anything.

The others were more or less nervous. After all, when Li Changshou first appeared, his expression was very scary…

Light footsteps sounded not far away. A few gazes gathered.

It was the short Daoist priest, Jiu Wu, who was the butler of the Heaven Arrival Hall. He held a few jade talismans and walked over quickly. When he arrived at the door, he asked softly, “How is it?”

“I haven’t come out yet.”

Jiu Shi agreed and looked worried. She continued, “I don’t know why, but Disciple-Nephew Changshou gave me a strong sense of oppression just now.”

Jiu Wu smiled and said, “Madam, Changshou still calls us Aunt-Master and Uncle-Master because he maintains his initial respect for us. It’s his character. However, he is now a disciple of the Saint. His seniority is much higher than ours. We can’t call him Disciple-Nephew casually. We can just call him by his Dao name.”

“Got it. You’re playing it safe.”

Jiu Wu said, “Master, Mistress, I’ll go in for a while. Changshou wants to see these.”

Jiang Lin’er sent a voice transmission. “Walk slower when you enter. Let’s hear what’s going on inside.”

“Don’t worry, Mistress.”

After saying that, Jiu Wu walked forward. The immortal power barrier in front of him opened automatically, but…

There was still no sound from inside. “Send a voice transmission in person. It’s a necessary skill for experts of Ren School!”

Bai Ze pointed his finger slightly and a conversation appeared in their hearts. At that moment, Li Changshou’s voice was filled with helplessness and hatred. “Even if it’s difficult to make any progress in the early stages, I can’t use such a soul-refining curse to increase my cultivation level! Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai, you’re so intelligent. Why can’t you understand such a small matter? Even if no one would pursue the matter, as long as the Heaven Ascension Hall successfully rose, this bit of dark history could be deceived. However, did our Dao hearts owe anything? Did the foundation of the Heaven Ascension Hall decay? If the foundation is unstable, how can towering buildings be built? The Soul-Refining Incantation could quickly increase one’s cultivation level, but it would overdraft the cultivator’s potential. It would definitely be their longevity opportunity! In the end, the foundation of the Heaven Ascension Hall was destroyed! The Heavenly Dao is looking at both of us at all times. It is looking at the Heaven Ascension Hall. From the beginning, we have to stand on the Heavenly Courts’ side and consider every action and plan. The banner of righteousness must be erected from the beginning!”

Bai Ze explained in an aggrieved voice, “However, the Dao Fruit of Longevity is not easy to obtain. They also know this logic… Moreover, it is different from the ancient times. The human race is not as easy to coax as the demons. If there are no practical benefits, why would the human Qi Refinement Warriors join us? In terms of luck, it was illusory. In terms of merit, the painting in the sky was just a basic usage of Spirit Stones. It could only be used unconventionally. Isn’t that the extraordinary means that you mentioned previously, Water God?”

“Mr. Bai, the extraordinary technique that I’m talking about can be used to imprison a person with a pure heart. While making him work for the Heaven-Reaching Hall, I can also make him do good deeds to wash away his negative karma. In that case, we can expand the Heaven Ascension Hall and be more at ease with these people…”

Although Jiu Wu had already slowed down his pace, he still had to enter.

When the barrier was closed, Bai Ze secretly tapped his fingers again. Everyone immediately fell silent…

It was quiet outside again.

The Hall Master, Wang Fugui, cleared his throat. “I think Changshou’s words make sense.”

Jiang Lin’er frowned and said,

“But if we don’t get something that others don’t have, it will be very difficult to recruit so many Qi Refinement cultivators. Besides, Senior Bai Ze is in the Primordial World. How can you lecture him like that!?!”

Jiu Jiu muttered, “Don’t worry, Mistress. I think Mr. Bai should be quite happy now.”

“Huh?”

They were confused. Jiu Jiu smiled mysteriously and continued to lean on the immortal power barrier to listen.

Jiu Yiyi whispered, “Shouldn’t the main point be that imprisoning others’ souls to drive them away seems even more unjust?”

The members of the Immortal Du Sect fell silent and pondered.

Finally, an hour later.

Creak…

The wooden door was opened. Bai Ze walked out happily. Jiu Wu, who was behind him, frowned and seemed to be in a dilemma.

Jiu Jiu hurriedly asked, “Where is Changshou?”

Bai Ze pointed at his sleeve and smiled. “I’ve already gone back. Everyone, please enter and have a chat. Let’s carefully think about how we should proceed in the future. Everyone has heard a little of the conversation between me and the Water God. We have a long way to go in the future. In order to cover our tracks, the Lord has already begun to rope in the forces of the Trichiliocosm. He wants to use this opportunity to attract the attention of the powerful enemies. We should do our best and take a gamble.”

Jiu Jiu blinked. “Mr. Bai, aren’t you angry?”

“Huh?”

Bai Ze was confused at first. Then, he chuckled.

“I feel at ease.”

The corners of Jiang Lin’er’s mouth twitched a few times. Her expression was surprisingly the same as Jiu Wu’s.

They could not understand why the ancient demon general, who was famous for being reprimanded by a “junior”, was so happy from the bottom of his heart…

That was probably the world of the strong.

In the secret underground chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou opened his eyes and sighed softly in his heart.

Fortunately, he had gone to the Heaven-Reaching Hall to take a look. Mr. Bai’s small decision had almost led the Heaven-Reaching Hall astray!

Indeed, Mr. Bai was very intelligent and had a heaven-defying mystical ability. He had become famous since ancient times and had a lot of experience. However, there was one thing…

He never looked at it from the perspective of the Heavenly Courts.

Li Changshou understood Bai Ze’s previous actions. It did not matter if there were any stains in the early stages of the development of the faction. After the faction rose, it could be washed clean.

However, what Li Changshou could not say was:

“If the Heaven Ascension Hall wants to rise quickly, it needs to obtain the approval of the Heavenly Dao and be pushed from behind by the Heavenly Dao.

With just manpower, it was impossible for the Heaven Ascension Hall to possess the strength to shake the external forces of the Western Sect within a few hundred years…

Things had not been going well for the past few days.

He had been delayed by the Heavenly Dao and almost left the Heaven Ascension Hall. Only the matters in the Netherworld were stable and the matter of Ling Zhuzi had improved.

“Ah…”

It was extremely difficult to just leave the job to others.

“Senior Brother, what’s wrong?”

Ling’e, who was writing on the desk, looked up and looked over in concern.

“It’s fine,” Li Changshou said. “Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu has just become the Saintess of the Heaven Ascension Hall. They have already gathered many Qi Refinement cultivators. They should be able to rise successfully in a few decades.”

Ling’e smiled and said, “With you to share the burden, Senior Brother, you can relax. Senior Brother, do you want anything to drink?”

“Don’t trouble yourself.”

Li Changshou looked at the two stacks of jade talismans in front of him. “I still have to continue being busy everywhere. If you’re tired, go and rest for a while. You can’t forget about your cultivation. Xuanya is now in the Heavenly Courts. Her cultivation speed is already faster than yours.”

Ling’e could not help but sigh softly when she heard that.

“Senior Brother… is there a pill that can allow me to live forever? I don’t want to work hard anymore!”

Li Changshou snorted and said, “Repeat the Steadiness Sutra 500 times and the array formation 20 times!”

“Aiya, I was just joking…” “Give up on your fantasies and cultivate hard,” Li Changshou said seriously. “If your cultivation level is not cultivated by yourself, if your cultivation level is not comprehended by yourself, you will ultimately be controlled by others.”

Ling’e’s face was instantly covered in tears. She lay on the table and sighed.

Li Changshou chuckled and closed his eyes to focus. He shifted his attention to the World Edge Mystic Realm and focused on the battle.

He was busy for five days and five nights.

Li Changshou had set the exact time for the first gathering of the “Anti-Heaven Immortal Dao Alliance’. However, he did not announce the location to prevent the Western Sect from causing trouble.

It was not easy to unite the various factions.

Li Changshou’s strategy seemed complicated, but his thoughts were actually very simple.

First, he would rope in a few large factions and give them the best treatment and benefits. Then, he would use them to threaten the other factions. He would take turns to tell them touching stories.

Finally, they gathered together and poured a cup of hot tea.

Who agrees and who objects?

There should not be any… ahem! The owner of the Heavenly Dao Merit Bond will appear!

The flag could not be inserted!

However, what Li Changshou could not say was:

There should not be any… ahem! The owner of the Heavenly Dao Merit Bond will appear!

The flag could not be inserted!

Li Changshou was concerned about the situation of Ling Zhuzi and shifted his attention to the Netherworld to see how effective his “cultivation” was.

Li Changshou wanted to activate the paper effigy beside Ling Zhuzi, but the paper effigy was stored in the storage Dharma treasure. Although Li Changshou could sense it, his mental connection was not stable.

That was fine. Li Changshou activated a paper effigy that he had hidden in Fengdu City and transformed into the Heavenly Courts’ Water God. He rushed out of the city…

He spread his immortal senses and immediately realized that Ling Zhuzi was still with Ox-head and Horse-face. It was currently sparring with a few experts of the Magi race on the peak.

Li Changshou was not in a hurry to go over. He turned around and went to a hillside outside Fengdu City. He found the roughly built Hall of Courage Testing

However, from the looks of it, Li Changshou was quite satisfied. It was almost the same as the design he had given him.

It was just that the Netherworld servants seemed to have gotten the measurements wrong. The size of the test hall was more than ten times larger than Li Changshou’s design…

At that moment, King Chu Jiang rushed over from Fengdu City.

Li Changshou rode a cloud and waited for a while. After meeting King Chujiang, he made some small talk and entered the Testing Hall together.

When they walked out of the hall, Li Changshou was greatly disappointed.. It was stiff and tacky!

He only found some ferocious evil spirits in the Eighteen Levels of Hell and placed them inside. There was no impact at all!

The situation in the Netherworld could be seen almost everywhere. How could he scare immortals and train his courage?! “Water God,” said King Chujiang. “What’s the use of covering this thing?

If you want to scare the souls of mortals, why don’t you bring them to the eighteenth level of hell to take a look?”

Li Changshou frowned and pondered. He already had the “hardware” of the Testing Hall. What he lacked was “content”.

“Yama Lords, can you summon the souls of some skilled craftsmen and lend me another 300 messengers of death?

“When I modify this place, I can use it to test my courage.”

“Water God, you’re too polite. Not to mention 300, I’ll immediately transfer 30,000 to you!” King Chujiang turned his head and shouted. Immediately, a huge ghost swept up Black Wind City and rushed to Fengdu City. Not long after, layers of ghosts were called over.

Li Changshou nodded in satisfaction. He brought the craftsmen of the Netherworld and the ghost soldiers of the messenger of death into the hall and began to inject souls into the Testing Hall. Building a haunted house in the Netherworld was considered a magnificent feat. Firstly, Li Changshou had set a rule. When entering that place, one had to seal their cultivation level.

That way, he could make use of the uneasiness and weakness that would inevitably arise in his mind after the Qi Refinement cultivators sealed their cultivation level.

Then, Li Changshou began to modify the array formations in that place. He set up twelve small array formations in a row and used the chain array formations that he was best at to connect the twelve small array formations.

He used the array formation to create a sense of oppression and nervousness, allowing those who had sealed their cultivation levels to reach a state of “insecurity”.

To stimulate the Dao heart of an immortal, he naturally had to spend more effort. However, that was far from enough.

Li Changshou began to emphasize the atmosphere of the place. He focused on creating light and sound in every segment.

Details determined the ticket price!

From the moment he entered the first array formation, he could hear a slow heartbeat. Occasionally, he could hear the sound of footsteps and laughter…

The list goes on.

In a very quiet environment, the gentler and more natural the voice, the more it made people shiver.

Apart from that, he had to pay attention to the sudden appearance of the “ghosts”. There was no need to pursue the “strange nature” of the “ghosts”.

Li Changshou carefully selected dozens of Magi and designed a set of clothes for them. He trained them to be agile and grasp the opportunity to appear. From their makeup, posture, and perfect cooperation with the light and shadow…

Unknowingly, Li Changshou was enjoying himself. He had originally planned to finish the work in three days, but he had been held back for half a month.

Half a month later, Li Changshou walked out of the Testing Hall in satisfaction. He made the messengers of death and the craftsmen disperse and smiled at King Chujiang, who had been waiting outside.

He activated the various array formations and barriers in the place and set up a wooden sign that said, “If you want to enter, you have to seal yourself first.”

After thinking about it, Li Changshou added another line.

“It’s too scary inside. It’s best if the three spirits enter together.” “Water God, aren’t you looking down on us Magi?”

King Chujiang said proudly, “I’ll go in and take a look. I’ll admire your masterpiece, Water God.”

Li Changshou smiled and handed over a jade token. “Yama Lord, you can leave the array formation anytime with this.”

“Ah, there’s no need.”

King Chujiang waved his hand and tapped his body a few times with both hands. His blood energy returned to his bloodline and his aura completely disappeared. He sealed his cultivation and walked into the hall. Li Changshou did not mind.

After all, he was a Yama Lord, so he naturally would not be too…

“Hey! What the hell is this! Bastard!”

“Why are the cabinets here still moving!?!”

“I am the Yama King of the Netherworld! I am the Yama King of the Netherworld!”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

The effect seemed good.

A moment later, King Chu Jiang muttered, “I am King Yama of the Netherworld.” His face was pale. He wanted to walk with his chest puffed up, but his legs could not help but tremble.

Fortunately, Li Changshou had reminded him. Otherwise, King Chujiang would have almost forgotten that he could still remove the seal on himself.

After his strength recovered, King Chujiang quickly heaved a sigh of relief. His heart quickly returned to normal. He whispered, “The Water God’s attacks are really extraordinary. I’m impressed.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Yama Lord, you flatter me. I mainly wanted to sharpen Ling Zhuzi. I was doing it happily, so I performed more.”

“Can this hall remain standing here?”

“Of course.”

“That’s good.” King Chujiang chuckled. “When you don’t need this place anymore, I’ll pull those guys over to try and let them have fun.”

Li Changshou smiled and invited King Chujiang to ride a cloud together to find the “master” of the matter.

That was a huge gift for the spiritual pearl! Just as he arrived at the first-stage Heavenly Sky Pass on the east side of Fengdu City, Li Changshou happened to see that scene…

Ling Zhuzi shone with spiritual light. His figure soared into the sky from the top of the mountain. He stood in the air and struck a palm downwards.

“Dragon!”

A four-clawed golden dragon emerged from his palm. The golden dragon phantom suddenly expanded and ferociously bombarded the “Secret Garden” on Ox-head and Horse-face. It pressed the four Battle Magi onto the stone and rubbed them.

King Chujiang praised, “Your Disciple-Nephew’s comprehension is astonishing. Even our Magi can grasp battle techniques so quickly.” Li Changshou nodded with a smile. Just as he was about to send a voice transmission to Ling Zhuzi, his heart suddenly trembled.

Almost subconsciously, Li Changshou turned around and looked at the west of the Netherworld with a solemn expression.

“Water God, what’s wrong?”.

King Chujiang frowned and asked, but Li Changshou could not answer. His spiritual senses were still trembling slightly. That was not a sign of danger, nor was it someone reminding him. It was purely because his incarnation had sensed something related to him.

Li Changshou asked, “What is that place?”

“That place is tens of thousands of kilometers away. It’s all a sea of blood,” King Chu Jiang immediately answered.

Blood Sea?

Li Changshou closed his eyes. Thoughts rose and fell in his heart. A spiritual light flashed and he held it tightly.

He could not be anxious or impatient. He could not make a decision easily.

Clear Dao Heart, open!

The Great Dao of Equalization, open!

The calamity’s luck was not affected. The Heavenly Dao was not controlled. His Dao heart was like a mirror, without any ripples or waves.

Trump card: Wind Speech Incantation.

Li Changshou was shocked. He snorted softly and said in a low voice, “Yan Jun, quickly deploy the troops. There’s going to be a battle in the Blood Sea.”

In the secret chamber of the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou bowed in front of the portrait of the Grand Pure One. Immediately, balls of light appeared in front of him, forming the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, the Cosmic Ruler, the Floating Flame Flag, and a…

Taiji Painting?! Li Changshou pondered carefully and immediately understood his teacher’s deeper meaning.

Almost all the treasures were out. He naturally had to… not be reckless and be steady.

Yes, that must be the case.

At the same time, outside the Primordial World, in the Xuandu City, which had been quiet for a long time,

On the city wall that was surrounded by layers of array formations, there was a rocking chair.

The Great Daoist Master, who did not want to reveal his name, stretched his back and touched his chest. He muttered in a daze, “Huh? Where did the painting go?”
