Chapter 186: Fake Pill Battle, Chu Qingyi!
Inside the guest room, after Lu Changsheng finished drawing five Tier 2 spirit talismans, he brewed a pot of spirit tea, sat down to rest, closed his eyes to recuperate, and recover his mana.
Although the spirit ship had a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator overseeing it, making it very safe.
But you never know when you might encounter an accident.
So, after drawing a few talismans, Lu Changsheng would rest and recover, keeping himself in peak condition.
“Fellow Daoists and passengers, this old man is Red Smoke True Person. I have just received an urgent request for assistance from the sect, so we will temporarily deviate from our course to provide aid. Please remain calm and do not panic.”
Just then, a deep and aged voice sounded, echoing throughout the entire spirit ship.
“Hmm? Urgent request for assistance?”
Lu Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard these words.
He opened his eyes and looked at the itinerary instrument in the room.
Only then did he realize that the spirit ship, which had been heading east, was now turning around, deviating from its course to Nine Heavens Immortal City.
“What kind of request for assistance would make a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator choose to deviate the spirit ship to provide support?”
Lu Changsheng was shocked and suspicious.
He knew that the identity jade token of a Qingyun Sect disciple could be used to request assistance.
As long as a request was made, other Qingyun Sect disciples within a few hundred miles would receive the distress signal.
But now, a request for assistance actually made a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator and such a giant spirit ship choose to deviate and provide support.
This immediately made him realize that things were not simple.
Lu Changsheng looked out the window at the sea of clouds.
At this moment, the spirit ship’s speed had also greatly increased compared to before.
It was obviously accelerating to reach the location of the request for assistance.
“I can’t be this unlucky, right? The first time I ride a spirit ship, I encounter an accident?”
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
The reason he took the spirit ship to Nine Heavens Immortal City was for convenience and speed.
If there was some big trouble after arriving at the support location, and he got caught up in it, he would really be in a mess.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng heard footsteps in the corridor outside.
It seemed that some passengers had heard about the deviation and were leaving their rooms to inquire and check the situation on the deck.
After thinking about it, Lu Changsheng also put away his talisman brush, talisman paper, and spirit ink, and walked out of the guest room to see the specific situation.
At this time, there were several Foundation Establishment cultivators on the deck.
They were asking each other about the situation.
But none of these people knew what was going on.
Soon, everyone stood on the deck, overlooking the sea of clouds, to see where the spirit ship was going.
Just as the spirit ship was speeding for almost half an hour, a deep spiritual pressure suddenly came from the distant sky.
“Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator!?”
Lu Changsheng and the others on the deck looked towards the distant sky.
Through this spiritual pressure, they immediately knew that this was the power of a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator!
However, a chaotic escape light broke through the clouds and was rapidly approaching the spirit ship.
A black divine rainbow closely followed behind, constantly bombarding the escaping light ahead.
“Boom!”
Axe light was unleashed from the black divine rainbow, with countless runes flashing on it, as if stirring up layers of black hurricane blades, sweeping away the sea of clouds, causing the escaping light ahead to groan and cough up blood, about to fall from the clouds.
“Bold villain, how dare you injure a Qingyun Sect True Disciple!”
At the top of the giant spirit ship, an old woman who looked to be in her fifties, with a dignified and stern face, wearing a crimson robe, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted.
Immediately, with a ‘swoosh’ sound, she transformed into a divine rainbow and flew out from the spirit ship.
The Pseudo-Core Realm mana surged throughout her body, turning the sky and sea of clouds into a fiery red, like burning clouds, emitting bursts of heat.
“So it’s a Qingyun Sect True Disciple requesting assistance. No wonder Red Smoke True Person chose to deviate the spirit ship and come to provide support.”
“Which Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator dares to hunt down a Qingyun Sect True Disciple within Qingyun Sect’s territory!”
“As expected of a Qingyun Sect True Disciple, to be able to persist for so long against a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator.”
“That’s natural. Qingyun Sect True Disciples all have Late Foundation Establishment cultivation and are invincible among their peers. As long as they don’t die prematurely, they will at least become Pseudo-Core Realm cultivators in the future.”
The people on the deck couldn’t help but discuss as they watched this scene.
Lu Changsheng was also surprised.
Having spent so much time with Xiao Xiyue, he also knew the ranking of disciples within the Qingyun Sect.
Outer Sect Disciples, Inner Sect Disciples, Core Disciples, and True Disciples!
True Disciples all had Late Foundation Establishment strength and were the Core Formation seeds of the Qingyun Sect.
As long as there were no accidents and they didn’t die prematurely, they would be the powerful elders of the Qingyun Sect in the future, with unlimited prospects.
But now, a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator was actually hunting down a Qingyun Sect True Disciple within Qingyun Sect’s territory.
“If it’s just a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator, it seems the problem isn’t too big.”
Seeing that only one Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator was chasing after them, Lu Changsheng also breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that he wouldn’t be dragged into any big trouble because of this.
After all, the spirit ship not only had a Qingyun Sect Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator overseeing it.
There were also three or four Qingyun Sect Foundation Establishment cultivators and more than twenty Foundation Establishment passengers.
If the Qingyun Sect needed help, everyone would be willing to lend a hand.
“Boom boom boom—”
Qingyun Sect’s Red Smoke True Person held a crimson banner.
With a wave of the banner, crimson flames that could burn the sky and boil the sea spread out, turning into fire dragons and intercepting the black-robed divine rainbow.
Then, with a wave of her mana-infused hand, she wanted to send the Qingyun Sect True Disciple onto the spirit ship.
“Get lost!”
Inside the black divine rainbow was a black-robed man with a concealed face.
Seeing the fire dragons in front of him, he was furious and slashed forward with the black giant axe in his hand.
Countless dark runes appeared, accompanied by a terrifying aura that reached the sky and the earth, extinguishing the fire dragons and erupting with terrifying power.
On the giant spirit ship, even with the array light lingering around it, the terrifying aura of this attack caused the blood of the people on the deck to churn, and their hearts to palpitate.
“Is this the strength of a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator? It’s truly terrifying.”
Lu Changsheng was amazed as he watched the battle between the two Pseudo-Core Realm cultivators. After taking a deep breath, he slowly exhaled.
This was the first time he had seen a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator take action.
He immediately had a general understanding of the strength of this level.
He knew that he was no match for a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator right now.
“If I encounter a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator, I must seize the initiative and use hundreds of Tier 2 spirit talismans to form a talisman array to have a chance to kill them.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he watched the two Pseudo-Core Realm cultivators fighting in the distance.
He knew that with his current strength, if he wanted to kill a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator, he could only rely on the method of refining talismans into an array.
He now had more than two hundred Tier 2 talismans on him.
Once he took action and formed a talisman array, even a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
But at the same time, it wouldn’t be easy for him to find an opportunity to kill them in the talisman array.
After all, those who could become Pseudo-Core Realm cultivators were not stupid and had many tricks.
As long as they sensed danger and something was wrong, they could quickly escape.
“I heard that the mana of a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator is only sixty to seventy percent of that of a Core Formation Realm cultivator.”
“So, if I encounter a Core Formation Realm cultivator, I must run away immediately.”
Through the strength of the Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator in front of him, Lu Changsheng also had a rough estimate of the strength of a Core Formation Realm cultivator.
He knew that he still had a chance to fight against a Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator.
But facing a Core Formation Realm cultivator, he basically had no hope and could only find a way to run away.
“Boom boom boom—”
The two Pseudo-Core Realm cultivators continued to fight, their power was amazing, causing the sea of clouds to roll and surge.
At this time, the Qingyun Sect True Disciple was also sent to the spirit ship by Red Smoke True Person with great mana and was caught by a Qingyun Sect disciple.
“It’s her, Qingyun Sect’s Pure Ceremony Fairy!”
“Pure Ceremony Fairy? True Person Rainbow Cloud’s disciple, Chu Qingyi!”
Someone on the deck recognized the identity of this Qingyun Sect True Disciple.
“True Person Rainbow Cloud’s disciple, Chu Qingyi, Xiyue’s senior sister?”
Lu Changsheng was also surprised when he heard this.
He knew that Xiao Xiyue’s master was Qingyun Sect’s True Person Rainbow Cloud.
But he didn’t know anything about Xiao Xiyue’s other fellow disciples.
He didn’t expect that this Qingyun Sect True Disciple who was being hunted down was actually Xiao Xiyue’s senior sister.
Lu Changsheng looked at this Pure Ceremony Fairy.
The other party looked to be about twenty-five or six years old, with delicate and beautiful features, possessing both the gentleness and heroic spirit of a woman.
Wearing a white martial uniform, her concave and convex exquisite figure was unobstructed.
But at this time, her aura was chaotic and weak, her white clothes were messy and不堪, covered with terrifying bloodstains, and gurgling blood flowed from the dark wounds.
Wisps of gray aura lingered on her delicate and beautiful face, making her beautiful eyes tightly closed, revealing a look of pain.
“Senior Sister Qingyi.”
The Qingyun Sect disciples beside her immediately took out a medicinal pill and administered it to Chu Qingyi.
“Yin corpse, this person is a demonic cultivator!”
“These three Yin corpses appear to be peak Tier 2 Copper Corpses!”
At this moment, someone looked at the two Pseudo-Core cultivators engaged in combat and exclaimed in alarm.
In the cloud sea ahead, after exchanging blows with True Person Chiyan for a moment, the black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator formed hand seals, causing three coffins to fly out.
From within emerged three zombies, their bodies a dark, ghostly black, their muscles seemingly cast from copper, and exuding a dense Yin energy.
“Roar—”
These three zombies let out beast-like roars, fearlessly charging towards True Person Chiyan.
True Person Chiyan’s crimson flag fluttered in the wind, filled with firelight. She took out several talismans from her robes, transforming them into golden lightning bolts that bombarded the three zombies.
Zombies mostly belong to the Yin and cold element, fearing Yang fire and lightning.
Faced with the layers of flames and golden lightning, the three zombies immediately let out miserable howls, their dark bodies seeming to boil as if placed in a hot oil pot, covered with dense white spots.
“Chī!”
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
Seeing this, the black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator formed hand seals, and a black钵体 appeared, from which different baleful auras flew out and entered the bodies of the three zombies.
This allowed the three zombies to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, causing True Person Chiyan and Lu Changsheng and the others to twitch their eyelids.
“What kind of zombies are these? They actually possess such terrifying physiques, and they are not afraid of Yang fire and Yang lightning!”
True Person Chiyan’s eyelids twitched, sensing something was amiss.
“Kill!”
The black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator coldly snorted, wielding a black giant axe as he continuously attacked True Person Chiyan, coordinating with the three zombies’ offensive, forcing True Person Chiyan to retreat repeatedly, unable to parry.
“Not good!”
Everyone on the deck revealed worried expressions upon seeing this scene.
If True Person Chiyan were to be defeated, they would all be in danger.
“Xuanfeng, prepare the Qingyun Cannon!”
At this moment, True Person Chiyan also abandoned her offensive, switching to defense, summoning a Fire Phoenix Cover to envelop her body, and shouted loudly.
“Yes!”
On the third floor of the spirit ship, a Qingyun Sect Foundation Establishment disciple immediately responded.
Soon, on the giant spirit ship, a surging and mighty energy surged.
Several cannon platforms on the spirit ship glowed with spiritual light, as if transforming into primordial ferocious beasts, slowly opening their giant mouths, brewing great terror.
Lu Changsheng and the others stood on the deck, feeling the great terror brewing in the cannon platforms, and they all felt a sense of palpitations.
“This kind of cannon platform, with a full-power strike, is probably comparable to a Core Formation cultivator’s full-power strike!”
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think to himself.
He felt that this kind of spirit ship was simply terrifying.
A Tier 2 formation like the Red Leaf Valley Market Town would probably be shattered with a single blast from this spirit ship cannon.
At this moment, he was even more aware of the importance of a good formation.
“Damn it!”
The black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator saw the cannon being charged on the spirit ship, his eyes twitched slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
Knowing that if these cannon platforms locked onto him, he would be reduced to ashes with a single strike.
“Fire Dragon Pillar, suppress!”
At this moment, True Person Chiyan summoned a fire pillar that was a zhang tall and as thick as a bucket, with a lifelike fire dragon carving on it.
The fire dragon carving flew out, transforming into a fire dragon chain, roaring towards the black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator, wanting to bind him, so that he could be blasted to death by the cannon platforms.
“This little girl has been poisoned by my Heavenly Yin Corpse Poison, and now that the corpse poison is attacking her heart, she probably won’t live for long.”
The black-robed Pseudo-Core cultivator looked at the incoming offensive and then at the spirit ship, his expression unwilling, and with a slash of his giant axe, he collected the three zombies and transformed into a divine rainbow, quickly departing.
“Huff!”
True Person Chiyan breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the other party retreat.
If the two of them continued to fight, she would really not be a match for him with the three Foundation Establishment peak zombies.
As for the spirit ship’s cannon offensive.
Once this kind of offensive was unleashed, she would be affected as well if she wanted to bind the other party.
Therefore, she did not want to use such a method of harming one thousand enemies while damaging eight hundred of her own unless there was no other way.
She transformed into a divine rainbow and quickly returned to the deck.
“Elder.”
“Greetings, True Person Chiyan.”
Lu Changsheng and the others immediately bowed and paid their respects to this Pseudo-Core True Person.
In the world of cultivation, strength generally determines seniority.
“Mm.”
True Person Chiyan nodded slightly and quickly went forward to check on Chu Qingyi’s condition.
“Elder Chiyan.”
Chu Qingyi also slightly opened her eyes at this time, weakly calling out to True Person Chiyan.
“Qingyi, what’s going on? Who is this demonic cultivator?”
True Person Chiyan immediately said.
“The Xiahou Family…”
Chu Qingyi, whose face was filled with gray death aura, opened her mouth, her voice weak.
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
The blood splattered on the deck, carrying a strong corrosive effect, and she fainted again.
“The Xiahou Family.”
True Person Chiyan’s face darkened upon hearing this.
Looking at the unconscious Chu Qingyi, she also knew that the other party’s current situation was very bleak.
Immediately, she disappeared from the deck with Chu Qingyi.
“The Xiahou Family? Could it be the Blackwater Xiahou Family?”
“Hiss, I remember that it’s not far from Blackwater Pool here, it’s the Xiahou Family’s territory.”
“Could it be that the demonic cultivator just now was the Xiahou Family’s ancestor?”
“How is that possible? The Xiahou Family is a great cultivation family, it has been in our Jiang Country for hundreds of years, how could it be a demonic force?”
“If the Xiahou Family is really a demonic family, this news is simply too shocking.”
Everyone on the deck was very surprised when they heard the words ‘Xiahou Family’.
Lu Changsheng was also somewhat surprised.
He naturally knew about the Blackwater Xiahou Family.
This was a great cultivation family with a Pseudo-Core True Person sitting in charge.
In the entire Jiang Country cultivation world, under the jurisdiction of the Qingyun Sect, it was considered a top cultivation family.
But now, this Xiahou Family was suspected of being a demonic force.
It must be known that the Jiang Country cultivation world belonged to the righteous faction.
As for the demonic path, not to mention exterminating them, but on the surface, they were absolutely not allowed to exist.
As long as demonic cultivators and forces appeared on the surface, the major immortal sects would take action to resolve them.
Now, a great cultivation family with a history of hundreds of years in Jiang Country, with a Pseudo-Core True Person in charge, was actually a demonic force, which seemed very shocking.
“If that’s really the case, then it would explain why the other party dared to chase and kill the Qingyun Sect’s direct disciple.”
“That’s right, the Blackwater Pool where the Xiahou Family is located is also under the jurisdiction of the Qingyun Sect.”
“Once this is confirmed as a demonic force, I’m afraid that soon, the Qingyun Sect will send out a Core Formation True Person, with a large army pressing down on the border, to destroy the Blackwater Xiahou Family.”
Everyone was shocked by this news and discussed it.
“Fellow Daoists, please keep today’s news a secret and do not spread it.”
At this time, the spirit ship turned around again, flying towards the Qingyun Sect at full speed.
A Qingyun Sect disciple came to speak to everyone on the deck.
“Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist, I, Xu, will definitely not spread today’s events.”
Upon hearing this, someone immediately made a mental demon oath, indicating that they would not spread the matter.
Seeing this, the others also made mental demon oaths one after another, and Lu Changsheng did the same.
After all, this kind of thing still had to give the Qingyun Sect some face.
As things calmed down, the spirit ship set sail again, and Lu Changsheng also returned to his cabin from the deck.
“Among you, are there any physicians who are proficient in treatment and detoxification?”
Not long after, an old and deep voice spread throughout the spirit ship.
It was the voice of True Person Chiyan from before.
Hearing this voice, Lu Changsheng immediately guessed that it should be that Qingyi Immortal from just now who urgently needed treatment.
Through a few simple glances before, he could see that this Qingyi Immortal was surrounded by death aura, not only was her injury serious, but she was also poisoned by some kind of poison.
However, he did not expect that this poison would actually leave True Person Chiyan, a Pseudo-Core True Person, helpless.
It was necessary to seek physicians on the spirit ship, those who were proficient in treatment.
“I wonder if there are any physicians on this spirit ship.”
“If there are no physicians, I’m afraid that by the time they return to the Qingyun Sect, this Qingyi Immortal will have perished.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
Although he had many methods.
But he was really not good at treating illnesses and injuries, so he couldn’t help much.
