Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Spirit Tool: Phantom

Quality: High Grade

Spirit Patterns 5: Thousand-Face Phantom Contour Pattern, Breath-Hiding Skin-Fusion Pattern, Voice-Phantom Transformation Pattern, Light-Hiding Pupil-Bewilderment Pattern, Obsession-Confusion Pattern

Effect 1: Can completely change the wearer's appearance, disguising them as another person.

Effect 2: Fuses with the skin, leaving no trace after wearing.

Although five basic runes were added, the overall effect didn't change much.

Xu Zhangqing held Phantom, covering it bit by bit on his face, his entire appearance changing in an instant, as if he had become another person. He coughed lightly a few times, then lowered his voice: "I am Zhu Rong, Fire Spiritual Root, master of Fire Crows, kekekekekeke..."

At this moment, he suddenly understood why that obscure Alchemist Youquan liked wearing a black cloak, looking so mysterious?

Hiding one's true self and feeling like another person is simply too exhilarating.

After tidying up the Lian Dan Fang, Xu Zhangqing came out of the basement, quickly returned to the ground, and soon arrived at the door of the Stone House.

At first, Wangwang thought his Master had come out, with a fawning smile on his face.

After discovering it was a strange face, he was first stunned, then jumped out of the Dog Kennel, barking loudly with a fierce look in his eyes: "Woof woof woof!"

It wanted to remind its Master, but there was not a sound in the house.

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "After wearing Phantom, although there isn't much change in clothes, height, or figure, the appearance and temperament are completely opposite."

Even Wangwang, who had lived together for many years, couldn't recognize him.

One can imagine how astonishing the effect of this thing is.

The next second, he operated the Nine Flames Mysterious Technique, and the Fire Spirit Power in his Qi Sea surged out.

Instantly, blazing firelight burned in his pupils, and his aura became exceptionally overbearing.

At the same time, a scorching breath swept around centered on himself.

Wherever it passed, weeds and insects were ignited in an instant, burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Wangwang was barking the previous second, and the next second turned and ran with his tail between his legs.

As for the guinea fowl in the Chicken Coop, it shrank into a ball even more.

The Light Spirit Turtle floated on Shui Mian amusing itself, seeming quite enjoying, when suddenly it felt the scorching breath surging violently, and its head and four limbs immediately shrank into its shell.

All living things around were at this moment like "birds startled by the twang of a bow."

Xu Zhangqing saw the situation and his mouth corner twitched slightly, then operated the Fire Crow Qi Nurturing Method again. The five Fire Crows in the Night received the order and immediately flew out, circling around his body.

Although the one below did not look like his Master.

But the order was fine, so it would not resist.

Ga wu~

Ga wu~

Ga wu~

A shrill voice.

Paired with a dangerous aura.

The entire Spirit Field fell into dead silence in an instant, with not a single sound anymore.

Xu Zhangqing issued an order, and the five Fire Crows quickly landed.

Afterwards, both person and Fire Crows turned into a mass of burning firelight and rushed toward Yuan Chu.

After pulling enough distance, he stopped, then cast Blazing Yang Finger, snapping his ten fingers with both hands, shooting out one yellow fire line after another.

In a flash, the pitch-black night lit up one after another.

The ground, trees, flowers, and plants melted upon contact, the scene too horrible to behold.

Xu Zhangqing felt himself with firepower fully open, only feeling comfortable all over, and couldn't help but say: "Is this what it feels like to have a mask?

Too exhilarating!"

His Wood Spiritual Root self was timid and submissive.

His Fire Spiritual Root self struck out with heavy fists.

In a flash, five days later.

Xu Zhangqing, a few days ahead of time, rode a Giant Flying Sword and descended upon the Loose Cultivator Market of Dongqing City.

Because there was plenty of time, he did not rush to trade with Sun Peng.

First he found an Inn and rented a single room.

Because he would be staying for a relatively long time this time, he rented it for several more days.

After dressing up as a Loose Cultivator, he came to Yixiang Pavilion... the residential area beside it.

Xiao Taohong's old lover had already escaped danger; Huang Sha E was not completely cured, but the Earth Evil condensed on his body had weakened greatly.

No longer a stone lying motionless on the bed.

Daily life had no problems at all.

Knock knock knock!

Suddenly, knocking came from Outside.

Wu Mang inched his body to the door, then opened it.

Outside the door, a stranger stood.

He looked ordinary, with nothing memorable about him.

Xu Zhangqing narrowed his eyes, sizing him up: "Looks like the recovery is going well."

Wu Mang was first stunned, then said rather excitedly: "You, you're that divine physician who treated this body full of ailments, right?"

"Divine physician?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "Correct."

Wu Mang cupped his fists in salute: "Thank you for saving me!"

Although, he guessed the other party surely had an ulterior motive.

But regardless, after all, he had saved his life.

One could even say, it wasn't just him who was saved, but also the wretched Xiao Taohong.

Otherwise, the two of them would have no future, their prospects pitch black.

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "No need for more words of gratitude, I just want to know what exactly is the situation inside Huang Yuanhua's Cave Abode?"

Wu Mang took a deep breath: "It's like this..."

As someone who experienced it firsthand, he naturally knew more than Xiao Taohong, and in greater detail.

From going to Huang Yuanhua's Cave Abode, then being seized by a Golden Core Stage expert who had been waiting inside for a long time, everyone becoming pawns to scout the way.

Until the Earth Evil Qi leaked out, killing many, many people, he told it all clearly.

The situation at the time, just hearing about it was incomparably perilous.

That Golden Core expert, and the deceitful dog of a man and woman.

Facing that leaked Earth Evil Qi, they had absolutely no power to resist.

After listening, Xu Zhangqing only felt Wu Mang's luck was too good.

The situation at the time, the slightest misstep would have resulted in death and Dao dissipation.

Now although he survived, his physical condition is still not optimistic.

Wu Mang asked in a low voice: "Dao Friend, what else do you want to know?"

Xu Zhangqing countered: "Do you have a map?"

Wu Mang said in surprise: "Isn't Huang Yuanhua's Cave Abode already without danger, even anyone can enter and explore inside?"

Xu Zhangqing gave a half-smile: "Who knows?"

Wu Mang was dumbfounded, then nodded vigorously: "Fine, I'll draw it for you, but it's only a rough sketch, the situation was urgent at the time, there was no time for me to explore in detail."

"Good." Xu Zhangqing agreed.

But when Wu Mang finished drawing, his mouth corners twitched.

Good fellow, isn't this just a rough sketch.

Called a rough sketch, it really is just a rough sketch!

Entrance.

What's the situation on the left.

What's the situation on the right.

Deep inside, the region where Earth Qi erupts.

That's about it, overall it looks extremely crude.

Wu Mang said regretfully: "Pity, my body still can't move freely, otherwise I would definitely go with you."

Xu Zhangqing said lightly: "Going after your illness heals isn't too late either."

"True." Wu Mang smiled awkwardly.

"Alright, you continue resting, I'm leaving." Xu Zhangqing turned and walked away.

Wu Mang watched his departing back, his face instantly showing an extremely unwilling expression: "Damn it, missed another chance to turn things around."

On the road, Xu Zhangqing used his spiritual sense to inscribe the full map into memory, confirmed it was correct, then a wisp of fire directly burned it to ash.

Returning to the inn room, he quickly shed his loose cultivator disguise, then took out "Illusion" from the Lightly Vitality Gourd and covered it on his face.

Instantly, loose cultivator Cai Kun disappeared.

In his place, was a fire cultivator named Zhu Rong!
