Chapter 346: Chapter 174: Underworld Rescue (End of Month Plea for Votes)

Outside Gongzhou City, about a hundred miles east along the river, there is a town built on the Gui Mountain on the left bank of the Min River, called Gui Mountain Town.

On this day, a young monk came by foot, followed by a nimble and graceful young girl, her face veiled, her beautiful features partially hidden, drawing the attention of many onlookers.

Suddenly, a booming sound came from the direction of Gongzhou. Monk Wu Chen quickly turned his head only to be left dumbfounded, as a huge black pall rose slowly from Gongzhou City, spreading outward, enveloping the entire land within a radius of a hundred miles!

"Indeed, some idiot has messed with Chen Shi."

The underage witch, Ying Ruming, giggled and said, "Luckily, we left early, or else had the demon inside his body sensed my scent, I’m afraid it would’ve come searching and devoured me."

Monk Wu Chen exclaimed in shock, "There’s a demon inside Chen Shi?"

Ying Ruming replied, "I took one glance and saw a pitch-black mass, and within the darkness, several hundred eyes were staring at me. The one that came out must be the weakest, the deeper inside, the stronger they get."

Monk Wu Chen was solemn.

The Demon Domain was pitch dark, with light present only inside Gongzhou City, from the numerous masters’ Primordial Spirits, shrines, Divine Embryos, and the light emitted by Spells.

Tianyang Child, the Green-Clothed Musician, Dao Qianqiu, three Independent cultivators bore their injuries, making every Independent cultivator in the city feel chilled to the bone.

At this moment, there were ten Independents in the sky and twelve on the ground, totaling twenty-two.

The Independents’ gathering was scheduled for the coming days, so many going to Henggong Mountain Mist Ridge would stop in Gongzhou before the meeting started.

Some Independents would arrive at Henggong Mountain early to visit friends.

They had their own astonishing achievements in different domains and took pride in their accomplishments, like the Green-Clothed Musician, who excelled in music, treasuring it more than life itself.

"Chen Shi" insulted him by saying he couldn’t even grasp the basics of Spells, wasting his time playing the lute, infuriating him greatly.

The Purple-Clothed Cultivator Dao Qianqiu considered himself profoundly learned, yet "Chen Shi" mocked that his poetry was nonsense.

Tianyang Child believed that no one could catch him due to his youth, having cultivated to the Returning Void Realm and aspiring to Mahayana; however, "Chen Shi" pulled out his past three lives’ histories like a slideshow, utterly humiliating him.

Independents often had strong obsessions, keen on exploring the mysteries of West Bull New Continent, delving into various Taoist Skills and Divine Skills, and because of such obsessions, their achievements were remarkable.

Smart people usually are arrogant and have various character flaws; "Chen Shi" the demon seemed able to clearly discern their weaknesses in Taoist cultivation and attacked them, causing damage to their cultivation, making them restless and irritable.

"Chen Shi" glanced at these Independents with disdain and laughed, "To encounter you all right after coming into this world is indeed a fortune of three lifetimes."

His figure suddenly blurred, and in the next moment, he appeared in front of Han Gongwang, reaching out a hand and pulling Han Gongwang’s Primordial Spirit out of his body!

"Chen Shi" opened his mouth wide as if to swallow Han Gongwang.

Those watching saw "Chen Shi"’s head suddenly grow many times larger than his body, making it seem that swallowing Han Gongwang’s Primordial Spirit was nothing more than a bite, let alone devouring them all.

Han Gongwang snorted coldly; from the void came thunder, countless thunderbolts emerging from around him, spinning outwards and exploding, covering several acres in an instant and striking "Chen Shi." ƒгeewebnovёl_com

That thunder was Yin Thunder, while normal thunder is called Yang Thunder, which contains unbreakable Yang Qi, adept at destroying all things of yin and evil.

Yin Thunder, however, is the thunderbolt of the underworld, infused with Extreme Yin Qi, able to destroy Yang Qi as easily as crushing dry weeds, with a single thunderbolt capable of harming a person’s life and diminishing their cultivation.

Normal cultivators aim to refine as little yin energy as possible within their bodies, the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Primordial Spirit, all are the same. Once the Primordial Spirit is cultivated into Pure Yang, one need not fear the Nine Yang Righteous Qi of Heavenly Thunder and will find it much easier to transcend tribulations.

But being struck by Yin Thunder can instantly break the diligently cultivated body of Pure Yang, diminishing one’s cultivation, resulting in incredible yin damage.

Han Gongwang excelled with his command of Yin Thunder; wherever it passed, "Chen Shi" felt comfortably numb inside and out, feeling indescribably at ease.

He stuffed Han Gongwang’s Primordial Spirit into his mouth, with Han Gongwang’s formidable cultivation having already slain the Three Corpse Gods and achieved the Primordial Spirit of Pure Yang. Almost immediately, his Primordial Spirit grew immensely large, his hands pressing against "Chen Shi"’s upper teeth, his feet against "Chen Shi"’s lower teeth, trying to prevent him from swallowing.

The attacks of other Independents were already upon him, with the Green-Clothed Musician’s music like invisible blades, cutting into "Chen Shi"’s back, making "puff puff" sounds, slicing open his clothes, but leaving only a few white marks on his skin without breaking it.

Tianyang Child’s palm force surged over, "Chen Shi" raised his hand to block, and Tianyang Child was flung backward once again.

"Chen Shi" coiled his tongue around Han Gongwang, pulling forcefully towards his stomach, with his upper and lower teeth pressing down hard while at the same time flipping a handprint down, clashing with Daoist Cao, inadvertently taking a step back.

Daoist Cao roared, his Primordial Spirit stood tall behind him, forming the Void Great Realm, within which was the Taoist Cave Heaven and Blessed Land where the sun and moon shone side by side, mountains and rivers were resplendent, and the scenery was picturesque.

The so-called Void Great Realm is known as Cave Heaven to Taoists, and as Nirvana to Buddhists.

Cultivators at this level are on par with Immortals, their Primordial Spirit Returning Void, refining the Void Great Realm, forming Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands, or ascending Ling Mountain to reach Nirvana.

Daoist Cao was a cultivator at the Returning Void Realm. Although he had not managed to break through to the Mahayana Realm in nine years, his power was immensely profound, much more vigorous than Tianyang Child, taking "Chen Shi"’s first palm strike in his stride and immediately taking a step forward, his second palm rising and falling!
