I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night
Chapter 302 - 213: Yin God? Evil Spirit? Take My Blade! [Three Updates!]

Chapter 302: Chapter 213: Yin God? Evil Spirit? Take My Blade! [Three Updates!]

Abandon the physical body, the soul refines the Yin God!

The characters present were all in the Qi Refining Realm, possessing a high level of expertise, and had a great desire for the path of "Qi Refining and God Transformation," thus they had a deep understanding of it.

However, abandoning the physical body and soul refining the Yin God was a new path of Refining God they had never heard of!

This path seemed to greatly differ from the "Qi Refining and God Transformation" they were familiar with.

All those present were solemn and turned their eyes to the Great City Guard.

"The physical body of the Liu family ancestor has already become unusable."

The Great City Guard thoughtfully said, "I see now..."

In High Willow City, there was a line of business that the Liu family had long controlled.

It concerned the deceased!

Birth, aging, sickness, and death were inevitable.

Some died a natural death, some perished from illness, some from accidents, some from murder, some from evil spirits, and some from starvation and cold...

Death, in the vast High Willow City, occurred every day and in great numbers!

On these eerie nights, if the deceased were not properly taken care of, they would eventually be invaded by Evil Qi and thus change.

Therefore, the deceased in High Willow City would be reported to the local Fang Zhang, passed on to the government office, and then to the inner city.

Transported to the inner city, the bodies were handled by Liu Zun Temple, which eliminated the strange Qi of the deceased before cremating them.

The ashes would rest beside Liu Venerate!

The family could take the ancestral tablets home for worship... or they could choose to leave them in Liu Zun Temple, to pay respects again during the holidays.

And the funeral business, ranging from incense and candles, coffins and shrouds, to transporting the corpses, their cremation at the temple, ash placement, and retrieval of ancestral tablets, were all under the Liu family’s business, coordinated with the temple.

This line of business had been monopolized ever since High Willow City was first established, before the first ancestor of the Liu family had passed away.

Even the other five major families had never managed to intervene in it.

That was because the "different type of True Qi" cultivated by this ancestor of the Liu family originated from corpses!

"I originally thought his strange True Qi was related to Corpse Qi, but now it seems it should be the Yin Qi of the deceased!"

Yue family’s Great Elder pondered, "Having cultivated Yin Qi for many years, his physical body probably has long been unusable, no wonder he has been in seclusion for so long!"

"But now he abandons his physical body, and the Yin Qi can become the nourishment for the soul."

The Great City Guard slowly said, "He’s preparing to complete Qi Refining and God Transformation with eightfold True Qi. Although the physical body is destroyed and the Yang God cannot be achieved, a Yin God can be refined!"

"Even if it’s simply a Yin God, if it can be achieved, the Holy Land must regard it highly."

Finally, the Bai family patriarch spoke slowly, "To this day, Li Shen Sect hasn’t managed to achieve Qi Refining and God Transformation, Wu Chang, the number one prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture, may not carry more weight than a Venerate Yin God... So, can Brother Liu preserve his life now?"

The second temple priest fell silent for a moment, then said, "Great City Guard, it’s time to leave the city to save people."

To leave the city to save people now, naturally, was not to save the Liu family ancestor but to rescue the number one prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture.

How could one possibly defeat the Yin God?

Death was certain!

"This farce of a disturbance should be stopped."

Zhou family’s Great Elder shook his head slightly, "If Brother Liu has indeed become a Yin God and preserved his life... it’s also not good for the number one prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture to perish in front of us."

"Young and arrogant, it’s inevitable, after all, he is the coming generation’s prodigy of the Human Clan, it would be a pity if he died."

"..."

The Great City Guard fell silent and did not move for a while.

Not until the person in charge of Observatory Tower finally cried out in alarm.

"It’s done!"

——

Dayin River.

The river roared, transforming into tigers and leopards, pouncing toward Lin Yan.

But at this moment, Lin Yan’s Golden Body shone brilliantly, and with a slash of his long blade, he destroyed the power of the Jiaolong.

Then, a stroke of the Blood Slaughter Thunder Blade crossed more than two thousand steps and struck the river!

Only a dragon-like wail was heard.

The Jiaosnake had already sunk to the bottom of the river and did not surface again.

Ahead, the Liu family ancestor’s body became increasingly stiff, his complexion pale, turning from white to a ghastly green.

Yet an extremely cold aura continued to rise from his body.

"I have seen two treasures of the Yue family’s Great Elder."

Lin Yan stood still and slowly said, "Those two treasures contain the True Qi of the Yue family patriarch, but once the True Qi within the treasures is used up, the treasures turn empty!"

Looking ahead, he said, "I didn’t expect that you already had the Magic Method to eradicate the True Qi seed, pulling it out root and all."

"Rumors in the outside world say that this old man has been at the pinnacle of the Qi Refining Realm for more than forty years."

The Liu family patriarch spoke, "But it has been more than just forty years."

As his voice fell, he looked at his hand that had stiffened like that of a corpse and said, "More than seventy years ago, I went to the Holy Land and obtained this method."

In an instant, a Qi Mechanism burst forth from his body, commanding endless majesty.

Gusting winds surged suddenly!

The great river roared, and waves tumbled!

Even the hurricane-like Qi Mechanism forced Lin Yan back a thousand steps!

They saw the Liu family ancestor, rising upon the gale, ascending ever higher, as if climbing to heaven.

He looked down from above and lamented, "Starting from more than seventy years ago, I have been trying to completely eradicate True Qi, leaving the seed within the treasures."

"On one hand, I cultivated, refining a form of alien True Qi, enduring the torment from that alien True Qi, suffering the immense terror of life and death, unceasing day and night."

"On the other hand, I was extracting it, enduring pain beyond what ordinary people could imagine."

"This seed of True Qi took root in my body, and every time I extracted it, it was as if my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, along with my tendons, veins, and marrow, were being torn out alive!"

"In this back and forth process, after decades of effort, I finally filled the six divine treasures."

"The True Qi in each divine treasure was equivalent to the peak of my cultivation in the Qi Refining Realm during my prime."

With a shudder of his body, those treasures that he had drained of their energy fell down like empty husks.

This included the Dayin River Dragon Pillar.

The material of the Dayin River Dragon Pillar was extremely special, able to have True Qi infused into it.

That was why originally, he buried all his True Qi seeds into this Dayin River Dragon Pillar.

The purpose was to one day retrieve the True Qi from it!

"I filled the Dayin River Dragon Pillar, and afterward, to restore my own True Qi, I almost exhausted the Liu family’s foundation. Together with those expansion materials, I converted them into cultivation resources. Only then was I able to refill my True Qi in a short period, but alas, still not to the full."

"My initial thought was to use ten times the True Qi to forcibly break the shackles and achieve the Yin God."

"Now, with less than eight times the True Qi, there’s not much hope..."

Only to see a gloomy light beginning to appear on his flesh, slowly forming like a human shadow, and slowly said, "But you offended the Holy Land Envoy, who actually pointed me to a path."

"Netherworld Yin Soldier Token?"

Lin Yan, looking at the token in the hands of the ghostly figure, instantly realized and said solemnly, "With this item, one can obtain a great amount of Corpse Qi, and even mobilize different Corpse Qi from tens of thousands of the dead, sorting and flowing them..."

"Exactly!"

As his voice fell, the Liu family’s ancestor trembled violently.

Then, his flesh fell from the storm, now a corpse.

It appeared like a piece of rotten meat that was discarded casually.

Only in the high sky, infinite Corpse Qi converged upon his body.

The figure of the Liu family’s ancestor began to dissipate but was then pressed back together by the robust True Qi that was eight times greater than the normal Qi Refining Realm.

He intended to use the most savage method to fuse his three souls and seven spirits into the Yin God.

The figure solidified, turned dark green and black, and his eyes were cold and stern.

Yet he had strength far beyond what one in the Qi Refining Realm could possess!

"Boy, how dare you not kneel before this god?"

"..." Lin Yan suddenly laughed and said, "Netherworld Yin Soldier, have you ever heard the name Wu Chang?"

"Hm?"

A feeling of unease suddenly rose in the heart of the Liu family’s ancestor.

But he heard Lin Yan say, "If you hadn’t discarded your flesh, I truly wouldn’t be confident in killing you."

——

Atop the Observatory Tower within High Willow Inner City, an uninvited guest arrived—it was Mr. Lu.

"The path of Qi Refinement and God Transformation, I have to see it for myself."

"Mr. Lu..." The Great City Guard hesitated, "The old ghost of the Liu family, he’s already made it!"

"Made it?" Mr. Lu walked towards the Divine Mirror with a calm tone, "The path of the Qi Refining Realm is fraught with hidden dangers, and even the Holy Land has not perfected it, not to mention the Refining God Realm?"

"What do you mean?" The Yue family’s Great Elder frowned tightly, and quickly approached.

"What I mean is that this barbaric path of Qi Refinement and God Transformation was something the Liu family member figured out on his own." Mr. Lu spoke slowly, "Taking the unorthodox path is not the right way; if the path is wrong..."

"He has been to the Holy Land, after all," the Great City Guard came forward, musing.

"The Holy Land Envoy was at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm himself," Mr. Lu said evenly, "If there was a definitive method to achieve the Refining God Realm, would that fellow still be stuck in the Qi Refining Realm?"

"So, the Holy Land Envoy from Qifeng Prefecture simply wanted the old ghost of the Liu family to pave the way for him?" The Great City Guard suddenly revealed a solemn expression.

"It’s a path destined to be incomplete, but once someone has traversed it, they’ll know where it falls short so that future generations can avoid it."

Mr. Lu’s glance swept around, slowly saying, "Today the Great Temple Priest allowed you all to come to the Observatory Tower to watch the battle over the Dayin River in the west, also hoping that everyone would understand the direction of Qi Refinement and God Transformation, and not stray onto the wrong path!"

"How could he be wrong?"

The Yue family’s Great Elder said solemnly, "His Qi Mechanism has already far exceeded the scope of the Qi Refining Realm, integrating into one body with unsurpassed power..."

"The hidden dangers remain, and he can’t suppress it any longer."

Mr. Lu pondered, "Just afraid that before he dies, there will be backlash."

However, Mr. Lu remembered something, and the worry that had just risen in his heart immediately dissipated.

He chuckled lightly, waved his hand, and said, "Looking at this was beneficial to me, no need to continue watching, I’m leaving..."

Just as he was about to leave, he noticed fluctuations in the Divine Mirror.

Mr. Lu couldn’t help but pause.

——

Boom!!!

At this moment, Lin Yan leapt high, dozens of meters into the air!

His whole body shone with golden light; he had already displayed the Golden Body Divine Power!

The Evil Qi gained from slaying evil creatures along the way was all channeled into his cultivation!

The Blood Slaughter Thunder Blade was pushed to its limit!

Divine Skills! Demon Suppression!

"Evil spirit, taste my blade!"
