Chapter 183: Burning the Essence Soul
Editor: Atlas Studios
Miao Hongjian and the others were stunned when they saw Qi Ming charge into the battlefield of the Astral Layer. Clearly, they did not expect Qi Ming to interfere in the battle of the Grand Elders.
“Personal Disciple Qi…”
“You have to be careful!”
“The Grand Elders are all mighty figures in the Tribulation Transcendence realm.”
“The Lifeless Mother is also an existence in the same realm.”
“…”
They shouted.
Swish!
Qi Ming did not respond. He had already used the Riding Golden Light and directly broke into the Astral Layer like a golden stream of light.
In the battlefield of the Astral Layer.
“Ah!!!”
The Lifeless Mother let out a miserable cry. She was surrounded and attacked by the four Grand Elders. It was already very good that she could persist until now. It was sufficient to see her strength.
She was already at the end of her rope.
Boom!
There was a loud sound.
Daoist Martial Saint used his martial path divine power and his fists landed. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, he destroyed all of the defensive spells of the Lifeless Mother.
Roar!
Immediately after, the azure dragon breath blasted over and sent the Lifeless Tower flying. Patriarch Wei He came and destroyed the Lifeless Demon Lotus.
In the end.
“Die!”
Boom!
Daoist Wuchen controlled the Dustless Bell to land. It contained a destructive power that suppressed everything and destroyed the body of the Lifeless Mother with extremely powerful might.
Swish!
The Lifeless Mother’s Essence Soul fled like an extreme stream of light. It surrounded the twelfth-grade Lifeless Demon Lotus and fled into the distance.
“Oh no.”
Daoist Martial Saint shouted, “This is the Essence Molting Technique. The Essence Soul of the Lifeless Mother can escape when her body is about to be destroyed.”
“Stop her.” Daoist Azure Dragon shouted.
“We can’t let her Essence Soul escape.”
“It’s too late…”
Patriarch Wei He’s tone was a little anxious.
Coincidentally…
At this moment, Qi Ming came.
He had calculated the timing and the direction in which Lifeless Mother wanted to escape. He blocked in front and waited for her to arrive.
“Qi Ming!!!” A surprised expression appeared on Daoist Martial Saint’s face.
“How did you…” Daoist Azure Dragon was also stunned.
“Qi Ming!” Patriarch Wei He shouted, “Quick! That’s the Essence Soul of the Lifeless Mother! Quick! Stop her! We can’t let her escape!”
“Stop her!” Daoist Wuchen shouted as well.
“You…”
Lifeless Mother was also a little dumbfounded. She did not expect this situation at all. The direction she fled in was as if she was running into Qi Ming’s arms.
“Lifeless Mother.”
Qi Ming’s gaze was cold. He circulated his Essence Soul Dharmic powers and released his divine power. He stretched out his right hand and grabbed at Lifeless Mother’s Essence Soul. The True Samadhi Fire burned furiously.
“No!!!”
The Lifeless Mother cried out in despair. She mobilized the power of her remaining Essence Soul and released the light of the Demon Lotus, but she could not withstand the burning of the Samadhi Fire.
“Ah!!!”
An incomparably miserable cry sounded.
Qi Ming grabbed the twelfth-grade Lifeless Demon Lotus. The True Samadhi Fire burned as the Lifeless Demon Lotus was burned, revealing the Essence Soul of the Lifeless Mother hiding inside.
Her Essence Soul was only the size of a palm and was completely pitch-black, as if it had shrunk many times.
“Qi Ming!” The Lifeless Mother roared, “The Demon Master will definitely not let you off! Definitely not!”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Qi Ming said indifferently, “Go in peace.”
Qi Ming’s Dharmic powers surged as the Samadhi True Fire suddenly surged. Amidst the incomparably miserable cry of the Lifeless Mother, Qi Ming’s expression was calm. Her Essence Soul was burned to nothingness by the Samadhi True Fire.
This way, the Lifeless Mother’s body was destroyed, her Essence Soul was destroyed, and her soul dissipated.
She had completely died.
“Okay!”
Patriarch Wei He heaved a sigh of relief. He was a little surprised by Qi Ming’s methods, but he did not say anything or ask, “Qi Ming, you did well. Fortunately, you arrived in time. Otherwise, it’s really possible that Lifeless Mother’s Essence Soul would have fled.”
Daoist Martial Saint returned to his original hunched appearance. He also came over and said, “Qi Ming, if not for you, I’m afraid we would still be kept in the dark by the Lifeless Mother.”
Daoist Azure Dragon was filled with emotion, “I indeed didn’t expect that not only would Yu Xuelan be fine, but Fairy Feng Xi would actually be the Lifeless Mother of the Myriad Demon Cave. She even infiltrated the Heaven Enlightenment Sect for more than a thousand years. We don’t know how many secrets the Heaven Enlightenment Sect has been discovered by her or even told to the Myriad Demon Cave.”
Daoist Wuchen bowed to Qi Ming, “It was indeed my oversight this time. I didn’t expect there to be so many secrets.”
“After this matter, I will leave the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain and head to the Heavenly Demon Mountain to suppress the entrance of the otherworldly demons. Unless something major happens in the sect, I will never leave the Heavenly Demon Mountain again.”
“This…”
“Daoist Wuchen, there’s no need to do this, right?”
“That’s right.”
“You were only deceived by Lifeless Mother. Moreover, Feng Jiu is your most beloved legacy disciple. His talent and aptitude are extremely outstanding and he has a chance to break through the tribulation. When you know that Feng Jiu’s daughter is still alive, it’s understandable for you to make some mistakes due to your emotions.”
Daoist Azure Dragon and the others said.
“Everyone, there’s no need to persuade me anymore.”
Daoist Wuchen waved his hand, “I’ve already made up my mind. Moreover, the calamity of the world has descended. In the unseen world, the killing intent of the world is chaotic. It might be a good thing for me to hide in the Heavenly Demon Mountain now and avoid this calamity.”
“Since Daoist Wuchen is determined, we won’t persuade you anymore.”
“The Heavenly Demon Mountain is not a good place to go.”
Daoist Martial Saint and the others replied.
Under the chaos of the killing intent of heaven and earth, the Heavenly Demon Mountain suppressed the entrance that the otherworldly demons used to enter the Mystic World. It was originally chaotic and filled with various dangers, so how could it be a quiet place to avoid trouble?
Daoist Wuchen was indeed guilty, which was why he wanted to go to the Heavenly Demon Mountain to guard against the otherworldly demons.
“Personal Disciple Qi, what do you think?” Daoist Wuchen asked.
Qi Ming looked at Daoist Wuchen and said, “You’ve already made your decision. Why ask me now?”
Daoist Wuchen asked bluntly, “Yu Xuelan is the disciple of Lifeless Mother. She’s a spy of the Demon Sect, and Fairy Feng Xi’s true identity is Lifeless Mother. I’m also Fairy Feng Xi’s foster father.”
“Don’t you doubt me?”
“No.” Qi Ming smiled.
“Thank you for your trust, Personal Disciple Qi.” Daoist Wuchen said.
“Cough cough.”
Patriarch Wei He coughed lightly and said, “Elder Wuchen is our Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s Grand Elder. He’s definitely not a spy of the Demon Sect.”
“This matter is indeed thanks to Qi Ming. It was him who sensed that there was something wrong with Yu Xuelan and Fairy Feng Xi and discovered the spies of the Demon Sect. To our Heaven Enlightenment Sect, this is a huge good thing.”
“That’s right.”
Daoist Martial Saint nodded, “After the Lifeless Mother was forced to appear, the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror immediately sensed it. Therefore, the Sect Master immediately informed us to come.”
“After this matter is resolved, it should be able to calm down for a period of time.” Daoist Azure Dragon said.
“Grand Elders.” Qi Ming said, “I have something else to say.”
“What is it?”
Daoist Azure Dragon and the others looked over.
“In a while, I’ll make a list. On the list are all spies from the Myriad Demon Cave, the Spring Autumn Sect, the Demon Court, and the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple.”
Qi Ming said, “There are many of them from all twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment. After you obtain the list, it’s up to you to decide what to do or how to deal with it.”
“This…”
“Really?”
“I didn’t expect the Dao of Heaven Secrets grasped by Personal Disciple Qi to actually reach this realm. Back then, before the Heaven Perish Forbidden Zone, before the Patriarch Heaven Secrets sealed himself, no faction could bypass the Dao of Heaven Secrets. As long as they dared to come, they would all be discovered. The various factions were basically controlled toyed around by Patriarch Heaven Secrets.”
“Patriarch Heaven Secrets can really display the past glory of Patriarch Heaven Secrets!”
Daoist Azure Dragon was shocked and sighed repeatedly.
Swish!
Then, Qi Ming took out the Heaven Secrets Brush and a jade slip. He used his Essence Soul Dharmic powers as ink and held the Heaven Secrets Brush as he wrote the name list on the jade slip.
Names were written on the jade slip.
Not long after, Qi Ming was done.
“This is it.”
Qi Ming casually handed the jade slip to Daoist Azure Dragon, “Elders, you’ll know when you take it back and show it to the sect.”
“Okay.” Daoist Azure Dragon accepted it solemnly.
“Don’t worry.”
“This matter is very important. We won’t be careless.”
Patriarch Wei He and the others also said.
“I’ll go back.”
Qi Ming cupped his hands and bid farewell.
Then, Qi Ming left the Astral Layer and glanced at the surrounding Heaven Enlightenment Sect disciples and elders, as well as the twelve Peak Masters and the legacy elders of the various peaks.
“Come back.”
Qi Ming waved his right hand and put the five spirit pets into the spirit pet slot. He then took out the Heaven Secrets Book and constructed a spatial passageway that was connected to the Heaven Secrets Manor.
“Return to the Heaven Secrets Manor.” Qi Ming said.
“Yes.”
“Yes.”
“…”
The 60 late-stage Dao Integration subordinates replied in unison. Although their injuries were not light, they had already stabilized their injuries. They were fine. They only needed to heal for a period of time before completely recovering.
“Senior Sister, let’s go.”
Qi Ming looked at the confused Lü Qingyan.
“Senior Sister?”
Lü Qingyan frowned, “What do you mean?”
“We’re going back.”
Qi Ming smiled. His gaze was gentle as he reached out and held Lü Qingyan’s hand. She did not struggle but left with Qi Ming and entered the spatial passageway.
“Sigh…”
Feng Zimu looked at this scene. He had already figured out the reason for the matter. His heart was quite complicated, “I’m really too incompetent as a master. Such a huge matter has happened. I only understand it now.”
“Don’t be so stressed.”
Miao Hongjian said, “You’ve already done everything you can. If you really can’t do it, there’s nothing you can do, right?”
“In this sect battle, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect mobilized a portion of their forces with the intention of destroying the Scarlet Blood Demon Sect. However, the news was leaked by Lifeless Mother and the others, causing this to happen.”
Wei Huadong explained, “In order to deal with Personal Disciple Qi, the Myriad Demon Cave wanted to attack the people around him. Lü Qingyan died on the spot. He used the divine power technique to revive her but she completely lost her memories.”
“Elder Feng, you were after all Personal Disciple Qi’s master. If the Myriad Demon Cave still wants to target him, it’s very likely that they will attack you. Oh right, there’s also Yuan Feng.”
Wei Huadong looked at Yuan Feng, who was not far away and was still in a daze.
Feng Zimu nodded, “I’ll be careful.”
