Chapter 607: Borrowing Gu for Rebirth

Hehe, you understand now? Too bad, it's too late." Wuming's muffled voice came again from the throat of the Mountain Demon King.

He slowly raised his arms, and a long, complex incantation came from his throat.

The cave where Chen Yu and Ye Qingning were located suddenly trembled, and countless poisonous insects and snakes surged out of the water, surrounding the two of them.

Some of these poisonous insects were brightly colored with tall crests on their heads and loud voices, while others were black and white and remained silent.

But the swarm of thousands upon thousands of poisonous insects crawling over made one's scalp tingle.

Ye Qingning, after all, was a girl, and she naturally feared snakes and insects, especially when she saw those poisonous insects, her face turned deathly pale.

"Chen Yu, you ruined my grand plan, I will make you suffer the agony of ten thousand gu devouring your heart. These gu will burrow into your body and slowly gnaw at you, tormenting you for seventy-seven forty-nine days before killing you."

Wuming shouted in a deep voice, the face of the one occupying the Mountain Demon King's body twisted into a strange and ugly smile.

"Is that so? Many have wanted my life, what are you anyway?" Chen Yu shook the Dust-Off in his hand, facing the poisonous insects surrounding him, his face showed no fear.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly, dragged the Dust-Off backward, and charged at the Mountain Demon King, then with all his strength, he swept a sword toward the Mountain Demon King's chest.

The Mountain Demon King's huge arms opened again, and he uttered a few muffled incantations.

Boom, Chen Yu's Dust-Off burst forth with a sword light several zhang long, striking toward the Mountain Demon King, but suddenly a powerful witch power erupted from the Mountain Demon King's body.

Chen Yu's tiger mouth shook, he felt a powerful witch power surge from the opponent's body, his body as if struck heavily, he flung backward with a plop.

"Hey, Chen Yu, do you still want to resist? The gu technique passed down by our Witch Clan is unparalleled, one could say it's invincible under heaven, but our weakness is our frail physical bodies."

"That's why I was easily killed by you before, but now, by using our Witch Clan's possession technique to occupy the Mountain Demon King's body, whether it's witch power or physical body, it's unparalleled, let's see how you break through."

The Mountain Demon King stepped forward, grabbed Chen Yu with one hand, and then punched him in the chest.

Chen Yu's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, landing with a plop in the midst of countless gu insects.

"Chen Yu..." Ye Qingning cried out in loss, she was anxious, wanting to rush forward, but was blocked by a swarm of gu insects.

Chen Yu leapt up, several fire talismans shot from his palm, the gu insects before him were burned with crackling sounds, and a large open space appeared before him.

These poisonous insects and snakes, born underground, are naturally light-averse; after the fire talismans burned a large number of them, their momentum waned, so for a time they dared not advance.

The Mountain Demon King leapt up and landed heavily before Chen Yu, he laughed hoarsely: "Chen Yu, didn't expect this day, do you? What other tricks do you have? Bring them out."

"Then you'd better be careful." Chen Yu's face was covered in blood, two thunder-fire talismans suddenly shot from his hands, which had formed a Dao Seal, tightly binding the Mountain Demon King's body.

"Break..." Chen Yu uttered a word, the two Dao Seals in his hands changed, and with a boom, the two fire talismans exploded.

The Mountain Demon King staggered back, the fur on his body emitted a scorched smell.

But now the Mountain Demon King's body was bolstered by Netherworld Witch Power, his defense was astonishing, completely ignoring Chen Yu's attacks.

He merely retreated a few steps, aside from some scorched fur, he suffered no injury.

Chen Yu grabbed the Dust-Off, gathered his remaining strength, and thrust a sword at the Mountain Demon King.

The Mountain Demon King seized Chen Yu's Dust-Off with one hand, casually threw it aside, then stepped forward and heavily stomped on Chen Yu.

Chen Yu shrank his body, dodging behind a large rock, with a crack, the rock before him was crushed by the Mountain Demon King's foot.

At the moment the rock was crushed, Chen Yu suddenly punched out, the fire tattoo on his arm suddenly lit up, boom, this punch drove the Mountain Demon King back.

Chen Yu took the moment the Mountain Demon King retreated to grab Ye Qingning and flash into a cave behind him.

The Mountain Demon King let out a wild howl and chased after him, but his body was too huge, so he couldn't enter the narrow space, he roared and pounded the cave entrance with his fists, trying to break it open.

The cave entrance was small, barely enough for two people to enter, and it was a long passage, the end of which was a cavern the size of a basketball court, with a small pond inside.

Chen Yu plopped to the ground, he panted violently, the wound on his shoulder reopened, yin energy raged inside his body, he was already at the end of his strength.

"Chen Yu, how are you?" Ye Qingning embraced Chen Yu, tears falling: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have let you come on this adventure."

"I'm doing this for myself too." Chen Yu took a breath, sat upright, then took out two talismans and handed them to Ye Qingning: "Stick them at the cave entrance, Wuming's possession of the Mountain Demon King's body is too huge, he can't get in."

"Next he will surely use gu technique to control many poisonous insects to attack here, this is the gu-repelling talisman, it can stop poisonous insects from entering, but only for a while."

Ye Qingning did as instructed, sticking the gu-repelling talisman Chen Yu gave her on the wall, then returned to Chen Yu's side.

She saw Chen Yu's face was deathly pale, almost no color, and couldn't help but worry.

"It's fine, the main injury is still from the Mountain Demon King's Yellow Springs filthy water." Chen Yu took a breath: "Now I need to find a way to expel the yin energy from my body."

At this moment, the Mountain Demon King's roar came from outside the cave, he was desperately pounding the cave, stone chips flew from the entrance.

Fortunately, the cave entrance was deep, even if the Mountain Demon King's body was strong, he couldn't break it open for a while.

This guy pounded for half a day with no progress, he shouted at the entrance: "Chen Yu, you've become a shrinking-head turtle? If you have the ability, just stay inside for a lifetime."

"Ignore him." Chen Yu sat properly, took a deep breath, then sat cross-legged, formed a Dao Seal with his hands, his true qi circulated, and he began to expel the yin energy from his body.

Because the yin energy in his body was caused by the Yellow Springs filthy water, medicine couldn't dispel it, only Chen Yu's own ability could slowly resolve it.

But just now, after being possessed by Wuming, the Mountain Demon King tormented Chen Yu, now Chen Yu's breath is disordered, for a while he probably can't expel the yin energy.

Just as Chen Yu was fully resisting the yin energy, the fire tattoo on his arm suddenly lit up.

Chen Yu's vision darkened, he entered an ethereal world, at this life-and-death juncture, he actually entered a state of ethereal meditation.

And this state is exactly the condition for the second level of the Tai Xuan Sheng Qing Jing.

Chen Yu now possesses the first level of the Tai Xuan Sheng Qing Jing, already a master of the Martial Ancestor Realm, if he advances to the second level, his strength will leap to the entry level of Dharma Cultivators, the "Primordial Qi" Realm.

However, the Primordial Qi Realm belongs to Dharma Cultivators, who cultivate the Heavenly Great Dao, wanting to enter the Primordial Qi Realm is no different than shedding the womb and changing bones.

Moreover, this is not yet the hardest part; the hardest is the myriad heart demon illusions when entering the Heavenly Dao.

Suddenly, Chen Yu groaned and collapsed to the ground.
