Chapter 181
Heaven doesn't know how high, the mountain doesn't know how many fathoms high.
When all the dust settled, the former 【Immortal-Imprisoning Temple】 had already turned into a ruin, and everyone gradually relaxed their tense nerves in a trance.
Li Changgeng's corpse lay in the pool of blood, neck broken without a head; such a picture for everyone was like a dream...
The most unreal dream.
Just at this moment, a high-pitched crane cry resounded in the long night that was about to come to an end, the mountain echo not knowing how many.
The dense pale clouds slowly scattered, and the bright moon set off a huge figure, appearing under the blue sky, presenting before everyone's eyes.
That was a white crane, its meat crown red like a gemstone, its long neck black and mysterious like the night sky, its floating feathers actually glowing with silver-white luster, its neck high and crying like a dragon's roar shaking.
"Crane... the crane of the Bai He Temple..." Lin Jianyue's face changed color, calling out first.
Although it is said that after the founding of the nation, transformation into demons is not allowed, there are countless spirits and monsters in the mountains; over a long time, one can always raise a few, which is nothing.
But a real demon, seizing a human body to become another kind, this kind of existence is the truly terrifying one.
They have human bodies to mingle in the mortal world, but the most powerful thing is still the body they hide deeply.
That is their greatest reliance.
Just like Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu, although they are also adult-transformed demons, their bodies are hidden elsewhere; once the original form manifests, the power immediately doubles infinitely.
Because of this, in the world today, real demons are already very few, and as for old demons over three hundred years old, they are even fewer.
However, the ten great Daoist mountains under heaven, with deep foundations, have a few that raise those terrifying demons that are the only ones left.
For example, the crane of the Bai He Temple, the pale ape of Mount Zhongnan, and the old turtle of Zhenwu Mountain, etc.
Lin Jianyue didn't know if this was the old crane that had lived for more than three hundred years, but such a sense of oppression made her feel trembling.
The eyes of that crane actually contained emotions like humans, cold to the point of making people tremble; that kind of high-above fifty-sense seemed to be a god truly standing on the blue sky.
Whoosh...
The mountain wind was wild, Zhang Fan's complexion was solemn, supporting himself under Jiang Lai's support, facing that white crane, feeling great pressure.
If this white crane is also a demon, then Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu are at most two bugs, not the same kind of existence at all.
The cold and indifferent gaze swept over Zhang Fan, staying for only one breath, the white crane suddenly looked up and cried, its wings shaking, and there was a gale...
Following that, it dived, the sound of sonic boom shaking the eardrums.
Under everyone's gaze, its claws grabbed Li Changgeng's corpse, slowly floating up.
Hum...
Just at this moment, a piece of white mist surged at Li Changgeng's broken neck, milky white mist; in that mist, the scattered flesh and blood slowly gathered, like a ball, wrapped in milky white mist, coiling at Li Changgeng's broken neck...
"This... this is..."
Liu Xingchui's face trembled, his hands gripped tightly, looking at this scene, simply unable to believe his eyes.
"Daoist sect supernatural power, broken head regeneration!?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's complexion changed, and even Zhang Fan raised an eyebrow, his gaze condensed into a line.
"Li Changgeng... he actually awakened two Daoist sect supernatural powers?"
"This is impossible... absolutely impossible..."
Everyone's heart stirred up monstrous waves; such shock was more intense than Li Changgeng dying in Zhang Fan's hands.
Daoist sect supernatural power is heaven-sent; being able to awaken one is a great creation, the blessing of ancestors...
Even disciples of famous sects like Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang had never heard of anyone in this world being able to awaken two Daoist sect supernatural powers at the same time.
"A monster? Indeed not human."
Everyone's heart was restless, vaguely guessing that this descendant of the Bai He Temple was extraordinary, hiding secrets unknown to others.
Boom...
The white crane rushed to the sky, flapping its wings and flying high, under everyone's gaze, carrying Li Changgeng's body, disappearing into the vast clouds and sky.
"It's gone..." Liu Xingchui said in a trance.
"Why didn't it kill us?"
Liu Xingyu suddenly spoke, coming up with this sentence.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's gaze fell on him, revealing strangeness.
"I... I'm just curious..." Liu Xingyu curled his lips.
"It disdains."
Just at this moment, a cold voice came from afar.
Everyone looked up and saw a young man, capable figure, wearing sportswear, stepping on white shoes, like a mountaineer, walking over.
"Zhao Jiexuan!?" Lin Jianyue frowned, looking at him, her beautiful face showing a complex expression; she had vaguely guessed something.
"Little white rabbit, don't pretend; you saw it, he and I were originally one."
Zhao Jiexuan pointed to Zhang Fan in the distance, a cold smile appearing on his face.
As soon as these words came out, different thoughts rose in everyone's hearts.
This kind of secret is not something everyone can hear.
But Zhao Jiexuan said it blatantly, looking like he didn't care at all.
"Where did you pop out from?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.
After the primordial spirit separated just now, the Evil God had no trace, and he didn't know where he had hidden his body.
"I hid my body halfway up the mountain; in case I couldn't beat him, I could escape in time." Zhao Jiexuan had long left a way out.
"..."
"You're really shady." Zhang Fan couldn't help but say.
"It's meaningless to praise yourself." Zhao Jiexuan grinned, indifferently.
"How is the recovery? If possible, can you help?"
"Help with what?" Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment.
"Of course, it's silencing." Zhao Jiexuan said as a matter of course.
"Having seen so much, heard so much, shouldn't they die?"
Zhao Jiexuan's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze condensed into a line, sweeping over everyone.
"You want to kill them all?" Zhang Fan raised an eyebrow, subconsciously asking.
"You mean... leave the women?" Zhao Jiexuan showed a thoughtful expression.
"..."
Hum...
Just at this moment, Qi Delong, Dongqiang, Lin Jianyue, and even the Liu brothers' complexions changed suddenly, subconsciously taking a step back, fully alert.
"Do you still have room to resist now?" Zhao Jiexuan sneered.
At the Daluo Treasure Hall, the primordial spirits of Qi Delong, Dongqiang, and Lin Jianyue were suppressed by Zhang Fan and hadn't recovered yet; as for the Liu brothers, they hadn't been put in Zhao Jiexuan's eyes at all.
Whoosh...
Suddenly, Zhao Jiexuan raised his hand, true yang surging, in a trance, as if blood light surged, actually like Li Changgeng's 【Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book】 just now, the power of the primordial spirit turned into four blood-colored long nails, shooting out with lightning speed, livingly sinking into the four people's eyebrows and spirit platforms.
Bang...
The next moment, Qi Delong, Dongqiang, Liu brothers, and Lin Jianyue's bodies tightened, falling down together.
"You learn really fast."
Zhang Fan stood up, walked over slowly, and glanced at Zhao Jiexuan.
This skill, although not the real 【Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book】, had its shape, and the power also had two or three percent.
"Didn't kill?" Zhang Fan glanced.
Zhao Jiexuan left a lot of room; the primordial spirits of the four were imprisoned, just fainted.
"Those two are your people, you handle it." Zhao Jiexuan pointed to the Liu brothers.
As for Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang brothers...
"One body, two primordial spirits... I have to study it first..." Zhao Jiexuan's eyes flashed with excitement.
This kind of material is not easy to find, not to mention this is the descendant of Laojun Mountain; just this identity can be well utilized.
As for Lin Jianyue...
"Little white rabbit, white and white, two ears stand up, cut the artery, cut the vein, motionless, really cute..."
Just at this moment, a pleasant mobile phone ringtone sounded; Zhao Jiexuan walked over, fumbled on Lin Jianyue, took out a mobile phone, lowered his head to look, and hung up.
"A living Maotu is more valuable than a dead Maotu; keep it for now." Zhao Jiexuan said indifferently.
Saying this, Zhao Jiexuan stuffed the phone into his pocket and turned to look at Zhang Fan.
"Chat for a bit!?"
"Let's chat." Zhang Fan nodded.
The two walked to the ruins and sat down face to face.
This feeling is strange, very special.
"Didn't expect Li Changgeng to be so hard to kill..."
Zhao Jiexuan's gaze sank, flashing a cold intent.
After being hit by the 【Picture of the Multitude of Demons Celebrating Longevity】 and the 【Jin Xia Treasure Box】, he could still fight Zhang Fan to a draw, and finally, his head suffered a blow from the 【Jin Xia Treasure Box】; if it were anyone else, they would have died ten thousand times.
You know, for this hunt for Li Changgeng, he had planned for a long time.
"You probed me on the high-speed train to see if there was a possibility of fusion?" Zhang Fan said solemnly.
Zhao Jiexuan nodded: "I am you, you are me... whether I eat you or you eat me, there is no big difference..."
Good god, fierce god, evil god, originally one body; once merged, they are Zhang Fan, and not Zhang Fan.
All things in the past cast the present me, all things today cast the new me.
Because of this, when the fierce god merged, there were no twists and turns.
But the evil god is different; trinity, once the spirit is merged, Zhang Fan can truly escape the tribulation; the most critical thing is, if the spirit merging is really successful, he will be a big step forward on the 【Three-Corpse Illumination of Fate】.
This is not allowed by the natural Dao.
This kind of heretic is absolutely not allowed to appear in the world. "Kill him, must merge the spirit; the probe on the high-speed train, I knew there was no play..." Zhao Jiexuan said indifferently.
Splitting the spirit is not easy, merging the spirit is harder.
If Zhang Fan hadn't practiced the 【God-Demon Holy Fetus】, perhaps there would be a possibility, but now his primordial spirit is too special.
Zhao Jiexuan naturally knew this point; he prepared many means, but to deal with Li Changgeng, he must have that ten-thousandth preparation.
Zhang Fan is the preparation after that ten-thousandth. Since the spirit cannot be merged, he began to ponder the brothers Qi's 【Primordial Spirit Harmonious Phase Great Method】; this method has great reference value.
But never expected...
"I was careless; I didn't expect him to possess two Daoist sect supernatural powers, and one of them is for life-saving." Zhao Jiexuan said solemnly.
Li Changgeng's strength was indeed more powerful than he imagined, but Zhang Fan now is not in a full victory state; fundamentally speaking, he has not escaped the tribulation, just relying on the 【Primordial Spirit Harmonious Phase Great Method】 to be opportunistic.
Li Changgeng was weakened, and Zhang Fan is not in his prime...
This is the second confrontation between the two, still considered a draw.

"Really f***ing hard to kill." Zhao Jiexuan gritted his teeth.
"He practiced Seizing Fortune from Heaven and Earth, naturally his fortune is extraordinary; if he were so easy to kill, he wouldn't be the descendant of the Bai He Temple." Zhang Fan said solemnly.
"It's not without harvest; this time it's knowing each other's roots." Zhao Jiexuan nodded.
"Next time we meet, it will be life-and-death." Zhang Fan knew clearly in his heart.
Ten years ago, under Long Hu Mountain, he and Li Changgeng met for the first time, and it was also the first time the two fought; young and shocking dragon, king meeting king.
That was a draw; Li Changgeng was seriously injured and dying, his body almost torn apart by Zhang Fan, and finally rode a crane away.
Zhang Fan was also forced into the tribulation of the great night without light, in a trance for a full ten years.
The second confrontation ten years later, the victory or defeat is still undecided.
"Broken head regeneration... is there such a supernatural power in this world, can it really grow another head?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but say.
Even as a Daoist practitioner, he felt this level of power was still too magical.
"I've only heard of it; it shouldn't be that mysterious; he should need to recover for a considerable period of time." Zhao Jiexuan guessed.
As long as the primordial spirit is not dead, there is still every possibility.
"The only one in this world that can truly be resurrected from the dead is the legendary 【Jia-Birth Gui-Death】 method."
The 【Jia-Birth Gui-Death】 mentioned by Zhao Jiexuan, also with 【God-Demon Holy Fetus】, 【Three-Corpse Illumination of Fate】, 【Seizing Fortune from Heaven and Earth】, ranks as one of the nine legendary inner alchemy methods.
"You have to be careful; if you find someone practicing this method, you must be extra careful." Zhao Jiexuan said suddenly.
"Jia-Birth Gui-Death? Why?" Zhang Fan asked puzzled.
"I mixed in the Wu Wei Gate for a long time and heard some secrets." Zhao Jiexuan lowered his voice.
"Daoist sect great tribulation... although eighty years have passed, both the Wu Wei Gate and the Daoist sects are exploring the secrets within."
The Great Putian Ritual, the Daoist sect great tribulation, I don't know why, everyone thinks that the tribulation hides the hope of becoming an immortal.
Chu Chaoran, a young man who had just come out of the mountain, became the only survivor of that tribulation, and thus achieved the Pure Yang Limitless Realm.
Because of this, ten years ago, Zhang Lingzong reopened Long Hu Mountain and retreated unscathed, attracting the covetousness of experts from all sides.
In their eyes, Zhang Lingzong walked out alive, perhaps discovering clues to the Daoist sect great tribulation back then.
In fact, he did bring something out from inside.
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan and Zhao Jiexuan subconsciously looked at Jiang Lai beside them.
In their memory, what Zhang Lingzong brought out from Long Hu Mountain was Jiang Lai, the still young Jiang Lai...
Zhang Fan vaguely knew that Jiang Lai was one of the most critical clues to the Daoist sect great tribulation.
Perhaps, their meeting was not accidental.
"I heard that eighty years ago, on Long Hu Mountain, 【Jia-Birth Gui-Death】 once appeared..."
This might be the biggest secret Zhao Jiexuan explored in the Wu Wei Gate.
"Jia-Birth Gui-Death..."
"Be careful; people who practice this method are very dangerous." Zhao Jiexuan reminded again.
Saying this, he turned around, took out an iron box from behind, and stuffed it into Zhang Fan's hand.
"Jin Xia Treasure Box!?"
"This thing is for you; it is said that the Three-Corpse Daoist discovered this golden glow in this mountain back then, only then comprehending the mystery of 【Three-Corpse Illumination of Fate】..."
"If we want to break the tribulation and merge the spirit, I guess the key is still on this thing."
Saying this, Zhao Jiexuan stood up, drilled into the ruins, and searched for a while.
"You don't need to worry about the Bai He Temple; I guess that bastard Li Changgeng won't be able to make trouble for a while, and he won't use the power of the Bai He Temple to find trouble for you." Zhao Jiexuan said indifferently.
"You mean..." Zhang Fan was thoughtful.
"Hehe, if he doesn't kill you with his own hands, you will be his inner demon... Dao heart collapses, the great night without light is right in front of him..."
Saying this, Zhao Jiexuan turned around, looked at Zhang Fan, and couldn't help but say: "Why don't you just commit suicide and let him regret it for a lifetime."
"Inner demon deep, plant him to death!"
"..."
"You are even more ruthless than Li Changgeng." Zhang Fan curled his lips and couldn't help but say.
A moment later, Zhao Jiexuan took out an ancient painting from the ruins, which was exactly the 【Picture of the Multitude of Demons Celebrating Longevity】; he rolled it up and carried it on his back.
"Let's go."
Saying this, Zhao Jiexuan took a step, came to Qi Delong, Dongqiang, and Lin Jianyue, carried them on his shoulders one by one, and strode away, disappearing into the vast night.
"Jin Xia Treasure Box!"
Zhang Fan gripped the treasure box in his hand tightly, turned around, and looked at Zhang Beijiang not far away; the latter's arms had turned charred black, and even started to carbonize.
Zhang Fan couldn't help but frown.
"Just opening the box was so dangerous?"
You know, Zhang Beijiang's body could withstand the two true fires of the Liu brothers and still be unscathed.
"This thing is too dangerous."
Zhang Fan couldn't help but look at Jiang Lai; she had also opened the iron box, but at this moment, Jiang Lai's arms seemed to become transparent, blood flowing, actually recovering injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Indeed unusual." Zhang Fan thought to himself.
"Sorry..."
Just at this moment, Jiang Lai suddenly spoke.
"Why say sorry for no reason?" Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment.
"I shouldn't have let you take risks... you are very important..."
Jiang Lai looked up, looking at Zhang Fan, her clear beautiful eyes shining with different brilliance.
Zhang Fan's heart seemed to move, and he hurriedly laughed: "It's okay, isn't it pretty good now."
"Go down the mountain first."
Saying this, Zhang Fan put away the golden glow iron box and awakened the Liu brothers.
Although there is no need to worry about the Bai He Temple for the time being, Zhang Fan is now in the territory of Dongshan Province, and Luoxia Mountain has made such a big commotion, I am afraid it will have no small influence.
However, right now, he couldn't care much, taking Jiang Lai and the Liu brothers down the mountain and returning to Luoxia Town.
Practicing the God-Demon Holy Fetus, the primordial spirit is powerful, not thinking of sleep.
However, at this time, Zhang Fan felt unprecedented fatigue.
There is no doubt that this was the most difficult and most consuming battle he had ever had in his life.
Just lying on the bed, he fell into a deep sleep, the long and continuous breathing sound echoing in the cold room.
Clang... clang... clang...
Deep in the primordial spirit's inner scene, the heavy chain sound resounded again, and the incense fire coiling like fire clouds was absorbed by the mysterious figure hidden in the darkness...
Just at this moment, light and shadow flickered in the primordial spirit's inner scene, as if it were the mysterious figure's dream.
Under the blue sky and sun, in Luoxia Mountain.
The murmuring stream rushed, falling from a very high place, splashing waves.
Under a towering tree, a young man sat cross-legged; he was tall and thin, his long hair disheveled, barefoot, his clothes shattered, like a wild man, with a wild grass in his mouth.
Swish...
Just at this moment, the stream splashed, and a young girl rolled up her trouser legs, stepping on the water and walking over.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, his mouth raised slightly; seeing the person coming, a bright brilliance surged in his eyes.
"You're here again."
"The method you practice is very special; perhaps it can help me." The girl whispered.
"It's a pity I encountered a bottleneck and couldn't break through, so I could only kill." The young man grinned and laughed lightly.
"Give it to you."
Just at this moment, the girl took out an iron box from behind and handed it to the young man; the latter was stunned for a moment.
"What?"
"Can help you..."
The young man paused slightly, but didn't take it, instead asking: "You don't even know my name..."
"I know."
The girl whispered solemnly, uttering a name from her mouth.
"Three-Corpse!"
"That's just a Daoist name; tell you secretly..." The young man lowered his voice: "My surname is Zhang; what about you?"
"Surname Zhang..."
The girl was thoughtful, chewing on the surname, and only spoke after a long while.
"My name is Jiang Lai!"
