Chapter 211: Evil Immortal, the Strange Appearance of Li Cangwu!

This sudden change caused the entire Splendid Yang Mountain to tremble!

You should know that since the Yu Kingdom was destroyed, the Splendid Yang Mountain has become the holy land of the entire Three Mountain Island, and the myriad martial artists of Three Mountain Island regard the Splendid Yang Mountain as an inviolable holy mountain in their hearts.

Yet at this moment, the Holy Mountain was actually cut in half by a single sword, and even the mountain gate of the Holy Mountain was shattered!

Inside the Splendid Yang Mountain, large numbers of martial artists rushed out from within the mountain.

These people included Martial Masters, Martial Venerables, and experts of the Elemental Martial Realm.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a large number of martial artists had already gathered before the Splendid Yang Mountain.

Fang Xu glanced briefly; among these people, those who were Elemental Martial Realm martial artists numbered over ten, and there was even a late-stage Elemental Martial Realm expert among them.

When did Three Mountain Island become so wealthy?

Seeing so many Elemental Martial Realm martial artists appear, Fang Xu felt very curious.

The spiritual energy of Three Mountain Island is relatively thin, and its resources are also scarce.

Especially high-end resources.

Back then, the entire Three Mountain Island had only Jiang Feng as a single Elemental Martial Realm expert.

Later, Zhao Wuji, who achieved the Elemental Martial Realm, relied on the vast killing qi contained in an extraterrestrial meteorite to barely break through.

As for Emperor Yu Li Cangwu, he broke through to the Elemental Martial Realm by using the evil technique of the Bright Soul Dao, relying on the faith power of the people of the Yu Kingdom.

But now, Jiang Feng has actually gathered so many Elemental Martial Realm experts in just over ten years.

Things are clearly amiss.

After these martial artists appeared at the mountain gate, they did not immediately launch an attack on Fang Xu and the others.

These people are not fools.

They all witnessed the power of Qi Shaoyu's sword strike, knowing that this group before them had formidable cultivation.

Moreover, among those who came, there were not a few who had seen Fang Xu before and knew of his past deeds and strength.

More than ten years have passed; they clearly know that Fang Xu's strength should have grown even greater.

"Fang Xu."

At that moment, a figure walked out from among the many martial artists.

Fang Xu fixed his gaze, and his brows involuntarily furrowed.

"Senior Brother Huang?"

The person who arrived was none other than Huang Qingzhou, who had helped me greatly back then.

Back then, when he was about to leave Three Mountain Island, he had once planned to bring Huang Qingzhou along, but for some unknown reason, Huang Qingzhou refused.

In the end, he only took Chu Ren Di with him.

"Why did you attack the Holy Mountain as soon as you returned?" Huang Qingzhou said with a blank expression, immediately questioning him.

Fang Xu was stunned.

He felt that the Huang Qingzhou before him was very unfamiliar.

"Senior Brother Huang, what exactly happened to you?" Fang Xu felt a doubt arise in his heart, then forcibly enveloped Huang Qingzhou's body with his soul power, wanting to see what had happened to him.

Boom!

As Fang Xu's soul power just touched Huang Qingzhou, an extremely evil force suddenly burst forth from his body!

At this moment, Fang Xu clearly felt that the evil octopus trapped inside his Bronze Treasure Vessel began to struggle violently.

But the Bronze Treasure Vessel is his star chart; no matter how the octopus strikes, it remains completely unmoved.

On Huang Qingzhou's side, sensing that Fang Xu was trying to pry into his secret, a flash of anger instantly appeared on his face.

"Fang Xu, after all I once protected you, if it weren't for me, you would have died back then in Maple Forest Town!"

"You actually dared to attack me!"

Huang Qingzhou wore an evil killing aura, his voice hoarse yet sharp as he roared.

"Fang Xu, Senior Brother Huang seems to be controlled." Behind them, Yun Wan whispered.

Qi Shaoyu and the others also felt doubtful about Huang Qingzhou's current state.

As Divine Connection Realm cultivators, they could easily sense that the aura of this martial artist before them was very strange.

Both righteous and evil.

It seems that two souls exist within his body.

"Is this a case of possession?" Second Elder Zhongli Hui murmured.

When a cultivator's soul becomes strong enough to a certain degree, even if the physical body is destroyed, the soul does not immediately perish; there is an opportunity to possess another body and be reborn.

But this kind of possession is extremely dangerous.

Because the body being possessed certainly contains the original owner's soul, when the two sides fight for the body, a battle is inevitable.

Moreover, the target body and the original owner's soul are highly compatible; as an outsider, one must expend an enormous amount of possibility to have a chance to completely eradicate the original owner's soul.

After successfully occupying the body, one must also spend a great deal of time tempering the compatibility between soul and body.

"It's somewhat like that, but I always feel something is off."

Beside Zhongli Hui, another Divine Palace Elder spoke up.

He is called Yi Tianxiong, an ascetic cultivator just like Ku Lun from back then.

It is well known that ascetic cultivators have very strong souls, and Yi Tianxiong is also a possessor.

Back then, he was besieged by experts of the Great Expansion Dao Sect, his body was shattered, his soul escaped, and he possessed the body of a cultivator from the Great Expansion Dao Sect.

Formerly, his strength was such that it faintly seemed destined to surpass the Divine Palace Hall Master Xing Lin, but after possession, due to insufficient compatibility between soul and body, his strength has not increased much over these years.

As a possessor, he is very clear about the specifics of possession.

Huang Qingzhou's current situation indeed resembles being possessed by someone.

But overall, there is also something strange about it.

Where exactly the strangeness lies, even Yi Tianxiong couldn't recall it for a moment.

Both sides stood in confrontation, and a few more people walked up to the gate of Huayang Mountain.

Fang Xu stared intently; the few people who came were all acquaintances.

Formerly, the steward of the Cliffside Underground Palace, Wuling; the steward of the Divine Weapon Hall, Tieshan; the steward of the Affairs Hall, Yanwu; and the steward of the Hall of Hundred Herbs, Xu Changqing.

Before the four stood Jiang Feng and that mysterious Dragon clan woman, Bai Shan.

The two exuded a terrifying aura, hand in hand, staring at Fang Xu in a rather strange manner.

Fang Xu was about to speak when, behind those people, another figure emerged.

Seeing that figure, Fang Xu's pupils constricted slightly.

Clad in a tattered hemp robe, holding a wooden staff……

"Grand Master Kulun……?"

That's right; the figure that finally appeared was none other than Kulun, who had helped him greatly back then.

Before he even left Three Mountains Island, Kulun had already left Liangzhou City and vanished.

Fang Xu originally thought Kulun had sensed something and was preparing to leave for a breakthrough, but even after he left Three Mountains Island, he had never seen Kulun.

He never expected to see him here today.

Gazing at Kulun, Fang Xu suddenly sensed something off.

Familiar!

That's right; he felt a hint of familiar aura on Kulun.

Although this aura was extremely faint, it was masked by an extremely evil aura.

But Fang Xu's soul was extraordinarily strong, and he still sensed it.

Meeting Fang Xu's gaze, Kulun's eyes twitched slightly, as if hinting at something.

Fang Xu had a realization, then looked at Jiang Feng: "Senior Brother Jiang, long time no see."

Jiang Feng wore white robes; his usually calm face now bore a strange smile.

His hand even, under everyone's watch, never withdrew from inside Bai Shan's clothing.

He looked exactly like a lustful hungry ghost.

"You've come back?"

"Just in time you came back; Bai Shan has been looking for you."

Jiang Feng said with an evil laugh.

"Bai Shan is looking for me?"

Fang Xu's gaze turned to Bai Shan.

Former Bai Shan seemed to have suffered some serious internal injury, her aura feeble, but now she had a ruddy complexion and faintly exuded the aura of a Dharma Appearance Realm powerhouse.

"Just who are you?" Fang Xu asked coldly.

Bai Shan gave a seductive smile, completely unmindful of Jiang Feng's hand pinching her in front of everyone.

"Who am I……"

"My identity is manifold, but I prefer others to call me Bai Xian."

While speaking, Bai Shan's body twisted slightly, breaking free of Jiang Feng's demonic grasp, then she came before Fang Xu.

"Have you heard of an Immortal?"

Fang Xu cautiously stepped back, then frowned and asked: "Are you an Immortal?"

Bai Shan proudly lifted her chin: "Indeed, this seat is an Immortal!"

Before her words even faded, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth behind her!

Within the light, pavilions and towers faintly appeared, with cranes accompanying the brilliant rosy clouds in leisurely flight, and Immortals soaring on swords through heaven and earth.

"Do you see? This is the Immortal Realm."

Bai Shan's ethereal voice echoed before Huayang Mountain.

At that moment, including Jiang Feng, everyone knelt devoutly on the ground, worshiping Bai Shan.

Fang Xu and the others exchanged glances.

Especially Fang Xu, as the inheritor of the Divine Extension, his aperture space within his body connected to other great worlds; at this moment he could clearly sense that the "Immortal Realm" constructed from the endless light behind Bai Shan was not illusory.

Spatial power fluctuated, making everything seem incredibly real.

What method is this?

Fang Xu was somewhat curious.

He currently cannot let his aperture space manifest outside his body.

Moreover, where exactly is that world behind Bai Shan?

"Divine Son, that is a real world!" At this moment, Zhongli Hui obviously also sensed that the world behind Bai Shan was real.

He also couldn't fathom how this wicked, evil woman before them could achieve a technique that even the Unity with the Divine Realm cannot master.

"Trivial trick!"

Fang Xu let out a cold snort; his terrifying soul power turned into boundless Mysterious Water, directly enveloping the so-called Immortal Realm behind Bai Shan.

Under the shroud of the Mysterious Water Soul, Fang Xu quickly discovered the problem.

"What damned Immortal Realm, it's merely a small world akin to a secret realm."

Bai Shan merely employed a few minor tricks at the entrance of that small world, making it appear like an Immortal Realm.

The Mysterious Water Soul transformed into a gigantic sword, which, under Fang Xu's control, slashed straight at that so-called Immortal Realm.

Seeing this, Bai Shan instantly flew into a rage.

Accompanied by her roar, all the cultivators who had been kneeling devoutly in worship suddenly went mad and charged at Fang Xu and the others.

Hand it over to me!

At this moment, Shi Huan took action.

He suddenly waved his sleeve, and in the next moment an endless black-gray aura rapidly spread forward.

In the next moment, the cultivators tainted by the black-gray poisonous mist all collapsed straight to the ground.

Furthermore, after these fallen cultivators lost consciousness, they each began to tremble violently.

Immediately after, strange octopuses of varying forms, colors, and sizes burst out from their bodies!

Again, this kind of thing!

Seeing these octopuses, Fang Xu's pupils constricted slightly, and he immediately unleashed the Bronze Treasure Vessel.

"Be careful, everyone, don't touch these things with your soul power!"

Having prior experience, Fang Xu quickly spoke up to remind everyone.

But his warning left the few people behind who hadn't reached the Divine Connection Realm somewhat dazed.

At the moment these octopuses appeared, many had already tried attacking them, but ordinary blades and martial techniques couldn't harm these octopuses.

They seem to be all souls.

Against souls, the best means of attack is still soul attacks.

"Leave it to me."

Seeing everyone's difficulty, Fang Xu directly took action.

The Bronze Treasure Vessel hovered in midair and instantly expanded!

A terrifying suction targeted those strange octopuses that had burst out from the martial artists' bodies!

In an instant, octopuses of various sizes were sucked straight into the vessel.

This scene made Bai Shan fly into a rage.

Accompanied by an even more shrill howl, its body rapidly expanded and then directly transformed into a gigantic octopus!

The octopus formed by Bai Shan was pitch black, with eight thick tentacles, each a hundred zhang long.

Its upper surface was covered with dense, eye-like strange growths, while below were numerous suckers.

As soon as this gigantic octopus appeared, an evil aura instantly enveloped the entire Huayang Mountain.

Moreover, Fang Xu could clearly feel an evil force permeating everywhere, frantically attacking his sea of consciousness.

Among the crowd, Yun Wan, whose soul power was relatively weak, and those whose strength had not yet reached the Divine Connection Realm, were already struggling to cope.

Under this frantic onslaught of evil power, their bodies gradually became uncoordinated, swaying as if drunk.

Although Fang Xu is now only at the late Primordial Martial Realm, his soul power is extraordinarily strong.

After all, strictly speaking, he has lived for at least several thousand years.

His soul power has long surpassed his physical cultivation.

Endless Profound Water transformed into veils of water that guarded his soul at the center of his sea of consciousness.

That terrifying evil aura, formless and colorless, came wave after wave toward his sea of consciousness, stirring up towering waves within the endless Profound Water.

"Old Seven, quickly attack its true form!"

Seeing that someone on their side could no longer hold out, and worrying that Fang Xu might be harmed, Zhongli Hui immediately spoke up.

Divine Connection Realm experts, because they possess divine fire within, are not afraid of this evil power's attacks in the short term.

Upon hearing this, Qi Shaoyu suddenly stepped forward!

With a single step, myriad sword rays burst forth from her body!

Afterward, these sword rays, like a rain of swords, pierced toward the gigantic octopus formed by Bai Shan!

Bai Shan never expected that in this remote place, Three Mountains Island, a terrifying Divine Connection Realm expert would appear.

It originally thought that by controlling Jiang Feng, it could gradually take over the Three Mountains Island, then slowly accumulate strength, and one day march toward the Central Continent, ultimately gaining complete control of the Heavenly Mystic Realm.

But the sudden appearance of Fang Xu and his companions disrupted its plans.

Divine Connection Realm experts are unaffected by its chaotic will, and its own strength is now insufficient to resist their attacks.

Helplessly, the gigantic black octopus's body began to writhe.

Pfft!

Accompanied by a black mist exuding a terrifying aura, it was spat out.

A figure coated in black viscous liquid slowly walked out.

After those black viscous liquids slowly peeled away, Fang Xu saw another familiar figure.

Li Cangwu!

Indeed, this figure spat out by Bai Shan is the former Emperor Yu, Li Cangwu.

Back then, in the underground secret chamber of the imperial palace, Bai Shan slew Li Cangwu with lightning speed, then sealed the entrance to the underground chamber.

Fang Xu originally intended to go in and have a look, but in the end he did not.

Who would have thought, Li Cangwu would appear again in this manner.

He could clearly feel that the present Li Cangwu merely possesses Li Cangwu's flesh and appearance, while the soul within is an extremely evil entity.

Fang Xu gazed solemnly at Bai Shan's gigantic body, which continued to writhe.

Accompanied by it spitting out another mass of black viscous liquid, another figure slowly emerged.

That…… was Zhao Wuji!

Pfft!

Pfft!

Accompanied by clumps of pitch-black viscous liquid being spat out, Fang Xu saw even more familiar faces.

These people were once deceased beings, many of whom he himself had personally slain.

However, Bai Shan now doesn't know what method she used, yet she actually revived them all.

Not only that, but these people's strength has also become extremely uncanny.

Such as Li Cangwu and Zhao Wují, who were originally only at the Primordial Martial Realm, now the aura emanating from them has already surpassed the Dharma Appearance Realm.

"Protect the godson well."

Zhongli Hui, seeing the situation, hurriedly summoned several other temple elders to protect Fang Xu.

As for Shi Huan and Liang Deming et al., they have already rushed up, preparing to help Qi Shaoyu deal with this monster before them. (End of chapter)
