Chapter 91: The Chicken-Raising Sword God, Blood Demon's Strange Movements

Little Qian, a pearl spirit favored by the Lord of Samsara, fought a decisive battle against his lifelong enemy, the Ghost Mother Miaokong, at Lanruo Temple. The Lord of Samsara coerced Little Qian to deal with the Blood Demon Old Monster suppressed under Black Mountain. Fortunately, with the help of the swordsman Yan, the two joined forces to beat back the androgynous Ghost Mother Miaokong. Just as they were heavily injured and dying, the sword immortal girl Ning Caichen, who carried a chicken with her, accidentally broke in...

"Qian World Ghost Soul" is currently a hit!

Qian Chen shook his head, clearing out those strange associations in his mind.

Ning Qingchen nodded slightly, a polite smile appearing on her face, but it was permeated with obvious detachment and a sense of coldness. Clearly, there was no love at first sight or ulterior motives between Ning Caichen and Little Qian.

If Qian Chen hadn't been hiding his inner unreliability very well, the girl might have even thought he was a weirdo.

Ning Qingchen first went to examine the wolf demon corpse that Zhi Qiu had moved. Seeing that she didn't avoid the ferocious, terrifying, and blood-stained wolf corpse, she carefully examined it before saying: "These are demons that have attained climate; their bodies are deeply infected with demonic qi. They are not ordinary demons. Logically speaking, such demons should only appear in the abyssal rifts..."

She looked up at Zhi Qiu, waiting for a response.

"This way of fishing for information is quite open and aboveboard..." After meeting Yan Shu, Qian Chen discovered that the samsara travelers in the Land of Samsara were different from the Main God Space of his previous life, or rather, the samsara travelers here didn't have the 'enlightenment' of samsara travelers, or one could say they didn't have Qian Chen's 'cognitive barriers.' To them, the Land of Samsara and the missions of the Lord of Samsara were just the Jianghu of another cultivation world.

Yan Shu of Shaoqing would immediately strike upon seeing a demon, but when encountering the left-leaning demon Qian Chen was disguised as, he only stayed distant and watched. Once he confirmed that Qian Chen was a fellow Daoist of the Supreme Dao, he trusted him greatly and had no consciousness of hiding his identity, nor did he have an attitude of treating characters in the plot world as NPCs or hiding his own background.

This style made Qian Chen realize his misunderstanding... The native samsara travelers of this world had their own ideas and styles for executing samsara missions and could not be rigidly applied with the 'experience' of his previous life.

Ning Qingchen had clearly found some clues and even knew that Zhi Qiu was the only native plot character among the three, so she directly used the name of investigating the strange movements at Heavenly Tian Shafeng to openly question him for clues.

Sure enough, Zhi Qiu didn't hide anything and nodded: "After the Heavenly Rift Abyss was destroyed, there were only a few rifts left leading to the Nine Heavens, and the demonic qi was thin, the roads complex, and they were closely monitored by many fellow Daoists. It is difficult for demons in the abyss to escape! In the last hundred years, I haven't heard of any abyss where demons have escaped."

"If it's not that a new rift leading to the Nine Heavens has been born at Heavenly Tian Shafeng, then it is... the Blood Demon releasing demonic qi to demonize it."

Ning Qingchen frowned slightly, calm and composed: "Is it possible that both are true?"

Zhi Qiu's eyes widened. Any one of these was already a major disaster for this realm! And both are true?

"The Blood Demon broke into the Boundless Blood Sea and attained the body of the Blood Demon. The Blood Sea Demon Path emphasizes using the body as a furnace to achieve the Blood Sea, which is equivalent to the true body being a Nine Heavens, a blood spring. This Heavenly Tian Shafeng has magnificent terrain and contains thick malevolent qi, indicating that the earth qi here is thick, and the Blood Demon is suppressed at the bottom of Heavenly Tian Shafeng. Although it is worn down by the malevolent qi, it is also almost deep into the lung of the earth, so its location must be deep."

"Even if it breaks through the earth veins with the blood spring and opens up the Nine Heavens abyss, it's not strange, right?"

Zhi Qiu lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying: "What the girl said is reasonable. If so, it can explain why the Blood Demon has not been worn away after two thousand years of wear by Heavenly Tian Shafeng. If the Blood Demon opens up a rift leading to the Nine Heavens and absorbs the Nine Heavens demonic qi, it can indeed maintain the Blood Demon true body."

"And the origin of these demons is also clear... It should be that the Blood Demon lets its own demonic qi out through the secret and winding rifts in Heavenly Tian Shafeng, demonizing the living beings here. That's why there are so many demons appearing at Heavenly Tian Shafeng!"

The girl nodded: "The Blood Demon taking these demons as subordinates and making many arrangements must be in preparation for its own escape!"

Although Ning Qingchen brought a large yellow chicken as a spirit pet and seemed a bit absent-minded, her subsequent performance was quite reliable. Her analysis was logical and, combined with Zhi Qiu's own investigation, seemed very convincing.

The girl's eyebrows relaxed, showing calmness and composure.

At this moment, Qian Chen suddenly discovered that the large yellow chicken with five-colored tail feathers had run in front of him at some point. Its small eyes were staring at the red-skinned gourd at his waist, unblinking. The Ear Dao God was a bit scared and shrank back into Qian Chen's collar.

Ning Qingchen also discovered the chicken's presumptuous behavior. She was a bit shy, and her originally calm and composed image was instantly broken. Qian Chen saw that her ears were even a bit shy and red.

"Master Feng... come back quickly!" Ning Qingchen lowered her voice, whispering like a mosquito.

The large yellow chicken remained unmoved, continuing to stare at Qian Chen's gourd. Before, Qian Chen had taken spirit pills to regulate his breath, and the pill qi on it hadn't dissipated yet. It must have been tempted by this. Not only did it not retreat, but it even tentatively took a step forward, tilted its head, and stared expectantly at the gourd...

The girl had no choice but to take out spirit grain balls, hide them in her hand, and shake them in the direction of the chicken from her sleeve.

But how could spirit grain balls compare to the spirit pills carefully refined by the Supreme Dao? The spirit chicken remained unmoved... The girl let out a small wail, pleading: "Master Feng!"

Qian Chen noticed that her attitude toward the chicken was not like a spirit pet, but rather like an elder.

In this way, 'Master Feng' might not be the name of this large divine chicken, but an honorific like a teacher?

The large divine yellow chicken seemed to have finally heard the girl's call. It regretfully scratched the ground, ground its claws, and leisurely walked back to the girl's side, burying its head under its wings to groom itself. From time to time, it still looked at Qian Chen's gourd. Looking at it, it raised its eyes and looked at Qian Chen again. Its lively eyes seemed to be saying: "You understand?"

The girl quickly pressed it down and held it by her side.

At this time, the prompt of the Lord of Samsara sounded in Qian Chen's ear again: "Main Mission 1: Go to Heavenly Tian Shafeng to investigate the cause of the strange movements of the Blood Demon seal. Completed! Reward 500 merit points. Open Main Mission 2: Obtain recognition from the Orthodox (Blood Demon) faction and join the Orthodox (Blood Demon) faction. Obtain a recognition reward of 500 merit points, and joining the faction will open side mission rewards."

"The samsara traveler has obtained recognition from the orthodox plot character Zhi Qiu. Completion (1/7). Do you want to join the Orthodox faction and complete Main Mission 2?"

Qian Chen was a bit surprised. Although he was busy fighting Miaokong and didn't have time to explore the plot, girl, you figured out so much in one night and deduced the result of Main Mission 1 from Zhi Qiu's few words. This is cheating!

"And the completion of the recognition of the Orthodox faction is actually divided into seven parts. It seems that the Seven Demon-Subduing Heroes of the past each represent a recognition. Then there is only one recognition for the Blood Demon side, and the difficulty of completion is obviously higher. That is to say, the test for joining the Blood Demon side must be more complicated than the Orthodox side."

Qian Chen thought it was reasonable. To obtain Zhi Qiu's recognition, there was a high probability that he only needed to contribute when the wolf demon attacked and protect him from being killed by the wolf demon. And Qian Chen and Yan Shu directly killing the Wolf Demon King, one of the four great generals of the Blood Demon, General Lang, belonged to the explosion of completion and could not be generalized.

But to obtain the Blood Demon's recognition, he first had to find the wolf demon's lair, then obtain General Lang's recognition, be recommended to the Blood Demon, and finally obtain the Blood Demon's recognition.

The difficulty of any step exceeded the difficulty of obtaining Zhi Qiu's recognition, so it was normal that the completion of one plot character's recognition on the Orthodox side was only one-seventh of the Blood Demon side.

At this time, Zhi Qiu, who had sensed the root cause of the strange movements of the demons at Heavenly Tian Shafeng, had already dragged his heavily injured body into action.

He nervously took out a talisman, folded it into a paper crane, and released it, even attaching a part of the wolf demon's body that was obviously demonized. After doing this, he explained to Qian Chen and the others: "This matter is of great importance. I have already notified Kunlun. If the Blood Demon escapes, only by gathering the power of the orthodox path of the world can we contend with it!"

"Join the Orthodox faction!" Qian Chen hadn't considered the Blood Demon side at all. As a true successor of the orthodox path, the future revival ancestor of the Louguan Sect, and the successor of the Supreme Dao lineage's three treasures, if he turned to curry favor with the Blood Sea Demon Path, the Supreme Dao could be angered to death by him.

"Unless I am given a Demon Ancestor position, why would I be bored and defect to the Demon Path!"

Yan Shu, like Qian Chen, was someone who would never choose the Demon Path side no matter what. He soon lit up the same faction sign in the Lord of Samsara's certification, and the girl Ning Qingchen also lit up the Orthodox faction sign not long after.

The three looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere became harmonious again, with one less layer of estrangement than before.

No matter what, they were people on the same boat.

Ning Qingchen then explained: "The commotion here earlier was a bit startling, and many fellow Daoists were alarmed. Among them, there were many who were sneaky, harbored evil intentions, and were demon disciples and evil people. Later, there were rumors that the fellow Daoists here were heavily injured by that demon fire and divine magic dharma image. I was worried that evil people would take the opportunity to make trouble, so I came here to see if there was anything I could help with."

"It's just that I saw you were quite guarded when healing earlier, so it was hard to speak directly!"

Yan Shu nodded: "Yan thanks the fellow Daoist for your help! I accept your heart of help..."

"These kinds of scoundrels, it's just right to sacrifice them to the sword when they come!"

"I didn't hide my tracks when I came, so I must have deterred them. Both fellow Daoists were able to fight that terrifying demon earlier, so even if injured, you are not something they can easily offend. Those people should have already given up this idea..." Ning Qingchen said.

Qian Chen shook his head disapprovingly: "Fellow Daoist Ning still underestimated their dog guts. You are alone, and you can't dispel their thief hearts."

He drew the few people depicted by the Ear Dao God on the talisman paper and handed it to Yan Shu: "I need to suppress those evil objects and cannot spare myself. This matter still requires Brother Yan to act. When you see these people, just draw your sword and kill them... don't talk too much to them."

He nodded to Ning Qingchen again: "I've troubled you, fellow Daoist!" ===== CHAPTER 92 =====
