Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

After hearing Taoist Master Yunyang explain the reason why the sect's mountain gate was filled with evil spirits, Qi Xiu frowned slightly.

When the Shenxiao Sect destroyed the Hell Road, in order to prevent the remnants of the evil spirits from reviving, they pulled its headquarters, the Hell Forest, back to the mountain gate and suppressed and sealed it with the divine artifact [Nine Heavens Shenxiao Thunder City].

The intention is to completely erase it.

In the Hell Forest, besides the remaining souls and evil intentions of those Hellish demon cultivators who died in the past, there are also many magic weapons of Hell.

The most dangerous of them is the sacred weapon that once protected the Hell!

Although this divine weapon was put into a dormant state by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City, it still frequently unleashes its power, which is extremely terrifying.

A thousand years ago, a veteran True Lord of the Jing generation in the Shenxiao Sect, who was also the master of Taoist Yunyang, was injured by the power of this magic weapon. He was eventually seriously injured and died prematurely.

From that time on, no disciples of the Shenxiao Sect were allowed to enter the Hell Forest unless accompanied by an elder who was at the fifth level of Jidao or above.

“Gao Tianxiong broke into our sect, his target was Hell Forest, obviously for the Hell Divine Artifact.

Alas, these warlords have now resorted to every possible means to fight for the imperial artifact.

The Hell Realm was notorious in the past, and the murders it committed were even worse than those committed by the Heavenly Demon Sect, the leader of the evil sect.

Gao Tianxiong and his men actually dared to set their sights on that divine artifact.

If he really dares to revive that divine weapon, the first person the Dao Alliance will destroy will be him!"

Taoist Yun Qing was so angry that the goatee on his chin was trembling.

Warlords in the secular world fought for their own rule.

Basically, these ancient religious families will not participate in it. After all, who becomes the emperor and who sits on the throne does not have much impact on them.

But Gao Tianxiong's actions this time obviously touched the bottom line of the Shenxiao Sect.

The Hell Forest is the red line that the Shenxiao Sect cannot touch. Gao Tianxiong first secretly planted a hidden line in the sect, and then took advantage of the absence of the sect leader Dongfang Qing to leak secrets through the hidden line and break into the mountain gate without permission.

In the end, he even disregarded the taboos of the Shenxiao Sect and wanted to forcibly dig up the Hell Forest.

Any of these three points is a stab at the heart of their Shenxiao Sect.

If this hatred is not avenged, how can the Shenxiao Sect survive in the world?

"What does the Acting Master say?" Qi Xiu asked after a brief silence.

"The acting headmaster said that he will discuss this with you after you, the deputy headmaster, come back."

"Well, uncles and aunts, please go back first. I will inform you as soon as I come to a conclusion with the Acting Headmaster.

In addition, Uncle-Master Yunfeng, you are in charge of the guards inside the sect and the prison. The secret incident last time cannot be let go.

From now on, all disciples above the Dao Entry Realm must enter the Thunder Pool to examine their consciences.

But those who refuse to comply, are unwilling, or intend to escape will be detained directly and interrogated by me personally."

Let the elders go back and wait for news. Qi Xiu also gave instructions to Taoist Yun Feng who was in charge of the security within the sect.

“Don’t worry, Deputy Master, Yun Feng will take care of this matter immediately.

However, there is one thing. Some of the disciples in the sect come from other ancient sects. Most of what they learn is external thunder magic, which does not involve the sect's tradition. Do they also need to..."

“Since we are going to investigate, we must treat everyone equally, including all the disciples in the sect, including the branch sects, without exception.

If those outside the sect have any complaints, let them come to me directly."

Without hesitation, Qi Xiu issued an important order.

Judging from the various news he knows now.

The entire Tianyuan world will be swept up in an unprecedented catastrophe.

In troubled times, severe punishments must be used. If Dongfang Qing was still in charge of the clan, then all of this would be just a small problem.

But now there is no Yuanshen Zhenzun in the Shenxiao Sect.

Any hidden danger may develop into a catastrophic disaster, and Gao Tianxiong is an example of this.

Therefore, even if it means offending some powerful families of ancient sects, eradicating all unstable factors within the sect is a top priority.

"Okay, Yunfeng got the order!"

After giving instructions, Qi Xiu turned around and went into the Lecture Cliff to look for the acting headmaster Dongfang Xiong.

……

Thunder roared and the sky was dark on the cliff where the Dharma was preached.

When he came to the preaching cliff again, Qi Xiu saw Dongfang Xiong practicing in seclusion from afar.

He was still sitting cross-legged on the highest cliff, and the deafening rumbling sound of thunder echoed endlessly, like the roar of the sky or the hum of the avenue.

However, compared to the last time, after only a few months' absence, when I saw the acting headmaster again, his tall and upright figure seemed to have lost some weight.

It's the feeling that the skeleton is still there, but the flesh is withering.

Like a candle in the wind, it seems like it will be extinguished in the next second.

As if he heard Qi Xiu's footsteps, Dongfang Xiong, who had been practicing with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at him, and opened his lips slightly.

"You're back, how are things going?"

"very smooth."

Arriving in front of Dongfang Xiong, Qi Xiu raised his hand and summoned the [Daluo Five Elements Golden Plate].

Amidst the dazzling brilliance of myriad divine lights, Dongfang Xiong's gaze fell on this acquired divine weapon. After examining it carefully, he nodded slowly:

“Yes, the Zhao family spent a lot of effort to refine the [Great Five Elements Nirvana Wheel] and the [Twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls] in order to refine this acquired divine weapon.

It's a pity that Zhao Qianqiu was killed by you just when he had just refined the [Great Five Elements Nirvana Heavenly Wheel].

Relying on the position of one of the twelve members of the Taoist Alliance, Zhao Baiye spent eight hundred years of hard work to find the [Twenty-four Sea-fixing Divine Pearls] which also fell into your hands.

The Zhao family has been scheming for thousands of years, but in the end, it ended up making things easier for you.

If Zhao Baiye knew that you had successfully refined this acquired divine weapon, he would be so angry that the three corpse gods would jump into a rage. "

Seeing Qi Xiu successfully practiced the [Daluo Five Elements Golden Plate], Dongfang Xiong's eyes showed a trace of relief.

Dongfang Qing went far away from home, and he remained in seclusion.

Without utilizing its inherent strength, the top combat power of the Shenxiao Sect has almost reached its lowest point since the Middle Ages.

Fortunately, Qi Xiu now holds a divine weapon in his hand and has mastered two sacred palm techniques. Even if Yuanshen Zhenzun comes, he can have a fight with him.

With him in charge of the sect, the overall situation can be stabilized.

"What should we do with the artifact in Hell Forest? Although the demonic energy in the mountain gate is shallow, it will eventually become a cancer over time.

And that artifact has begun to revive. If we don't find a way to suppress it again, if the spirit inside it wakes up, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save it. "Sitting in front of Dongfang Xiong, Qi Xiu spoke slowly.

“The grade of that artifact is very high, even stronger than our sect’s Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City.

The reason why it was able to be put into a deep sleep back then was entirely because its driver, Hell Taoist, was severely injured by the founder of our sect and was unable to fully revive this magical weapon.

Now that this divine weapon has been awakened by Gao Tianxiong, it has begun to gradually revive. If one wants to suppress and seal it again, one must go deep into the Hell Forest, find the artifact's body, and complete the Ten Directions Heaven and Earth Thunder Seal on it.

But now, all the evil ghosts and spirits in the Hell Forest have been nourished by the aura emitted by the Hell's artifact, and their strength has been greatly enhanced.

Especially those elders in the hell.

I'm afraid it has recovered to 80% to 90% of its original level.

It is not easy to get past their obstruction and head towards the Hell Divine Artifact. " Dongfang Xiong continued, explaining the difficulty of re-suppressing the Hell Divine Artifact.

“So I plan to let Yun Yang select five elders of the Yun generation to enter the Hell Forest together.

The Hell's Divine Artifact is in the process of revival. If too many people enter the Hell Forest, it will become alert and the speed of revival will be accelerated.

The fewer people who go in, the safer it is.

What do you think? "

"Are you sure?" Qi Xiu pursed his lips after hearing Dongfang Xiong's thoughts.

"No.

Although the Hell Forest has been suppressed by my Shenxiao Sect for a long time.

But we have no idea what its interior looks like now.

We can only cross the river by feeling our way forward and try our best.

Even if we can't succeed in one go, we can still find out the situation inside and prepare for the next action." Dongfang Xiong shook his head slowly.

"If there is no better way, let me do this." After a moment of silence, Qi Xiu raised his eyes and spoke.

"You?" Dongfang Xiong's eyes moved slightly.

“Well, I have the Immortal Body of All-Purpose Primordial Beings, which allows me to be introverted and introverted. Even if I enter the Hell Forest, I will not attract the attention of the Hell Dao Divine Artifact.

Moreover, I have practiced the [Yan Luo Jin Zhang] of the hell realm, so I have more experience in dealing with those evil ghosts and spirits.

If you encounter danger, you will have the Haotian Mirror and the Daluo Five Elements Golden Plate to protect you.

Even if you are defeated, you can still retreat safely.

The Tianyuan catastrophe is approaching, and it is not appropriate to damage the combat power of our sect's top leaders at this time.

What's more, I am now the deputy head of our sect.

In such dangerous matters, we should take the lead.

Thinking this way, it would be safer for me to go to Hell Forest."

Looking at Qi Xiu who was presenting various arguments, Dongfang Xiong slowly raised a smile:

“Now I understand a little bit why Qingchen values ​​and cultivates you so much.

But it is too dangerous for you to go alone. If anything happens, I will not be able to explain to Qingchen..."

“Don’t worry, Acting Master. Unless the Hell Divine Artifact is fully revived, those little ghosts in the Hell Forest will not be able to do anything to me.

Don’t you think so, Mr. Xu? "

Before Qi Xiu finished speaking, Xu Zhitian's figure slowly appeared, stroking his long beard and glancing around.

"This kid is very tough. It's really not that easy for him to die."

After teasing Qi Xiu, Xu Zhitian turned to look at Dongfang Xiong and said something that made Qi Xiu look serious:

“But you’re dying, kid.

The end of life is coming, and the oil is running out.

Within ten years, you will be dead for sure!"
