Damn it, how does Daoist Styx know that elder from Bitter Mountain?
Inside the Su residence, Xia Yunyi, under the guise of taking a walk, went to a small courtyard, avoiding all eyes, and his expression gradually darkened.
He originally planned to try to join the Bitter Mountain sect after the Five Sects Tournament, and then tie that elder to his own chariot, but unexpectedly, the plan failed before it even began.
Based on what he had just seen, and the close relationship between that elder and the Styx Daoist, it was unlikely that he could help him.
I need to consider another option. Perhaps the Azure Nether Palace would work. I've heard that the Azure Nether Palace and Bitter Mountain are at odds and have been vying for rankings.
Taking a few deep breaths, Xia Yunyi calmed down, and the real power within him restored some of his confidence.
Some time ago, he made an excuse to leave the group, inquired about the location of refugees, and specifically sought out small groups of refugees.
After disguising himself, he acted without hesitation, using his Bone Refining level cultivation to slaughter the refugees indiscriminately.
Perhaps because the refugees were starving, the Taotie Jade Pendant provided very little vital energy, forcing him to kill more people in order to elevate himself to the Blood Refining level.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "They provide so little vital energy, no wonder they're just peasants."
Fortunately, no one cared about the lives of the refugees. Even if one or two escaped occasionally, it wouldn't expose his identity, and no one would bother to look for him.
But as time went on, he encountered fewer and fewer groups of refugees.
"I heard that a large number of refugees have gathered at Daze Mountain. It's a pity I don't have time, otherwise I really want to go there and see."
Recalling the exhilaration of his killing spree, Xia Yunyi was somewhat intoxicated, and his killing intent toward the Styx Daoist was also rising steadily, as if something was urging him to kill that Daoist.
Completely unaware that the jade pendant in his arms was emitting a red glow, he was even more unaware that this was not the first time this had happened.
"With the Taotie Jade Pendant, I'll become a Grandmaster sooner or later. That Styx Daoist is no match for me; he'll eventually..."
"Step into the shadows and come to me."
Before the fantasy could end, it was interrupted by a soft, feminine voice.
Xia Yunyi was startled and instinctively became wary, looking around but not seeing anyone.
The voice rang out once more: "Step into the shadows and come to me."
He finally realized whose voice it was, and immediately followed the instructions, stepping into the shadows in the corner.
The moment he stepped into the shadows, his vision blurred, and when he opened his eyes again, he was in a small courtyard.
Five people dressed in different ways were facing him, their scrutinizing, disdainful, and strange gazes falling on him.
After a long pause, the leading man in tight-fitting clothes asked doubtfully, "Lord Yu, is this young man who's only at the Blood Refinement level your new colleague?"
"Yes, I have high hopes for him. From today onwards, he will work with you."
The voice came from the shadows. Xia Yunyi turned his head and saw a pale-faced, beardless man step out of the shadows. It was Yu Guangzhi, the chief executioner of the Western Depot, whom he had met on the road.
Yu Guangzhi glanced at him, his expression calm. "You are a disciple of Hidden Sword Peak. Do you know what I need you to do?"
"This subordinate is unaware," Xia Yunyi said, clasping his hands in a respectful but not arrogant manner.
"I need you to find a way to make it public that Daoist Styx is a remnant of the Food Cult, especially to let the higher-ups of Hidden Sword Peak know."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yunyi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he was secretly delighted.
It turns out that Daoist Styx is a remnant of the Feast Cult. This is truly a stroke of luck! If I can just leak this information, his allies will be endless.
No matter how powerful Daoist Styx is, he will never have the strength of a Grandmaster. There are so many Divine Qi Realm cultivators in the Five Sects. Even if he exhausts his true essence, he may not be able to kill them all.
"Yes, Your subordinate obeys." Xia Yunyi immediately agreed.
In a small courtyard, Mo Di was personally teaching Su Youli martial arts techniques.
"These are the four natures: cold, cool, warm, and hot. These are the five flavors: sour, bitter, sweet, spicy, and salty... Alright, you have grasped the key points of the four natures and five flavors. Now, try to construct a four-energy circulation formation that covers Tianyong City."
Su Youli had just established a balance of the five flavors and the four sexual cycles within her body when she heard this. Her expression immediately fell, and she placed her hand on his waist, smilingly saying, "You want it, don't you?"
"But I really think it's simple, ouch, be gentle."
Modi gasped and immediately changed his tune:
"I think there's a saying that goes, 'Everyone has their own expertise.' Just like how I'm not as good as you in swordsmanship, and you're not as good as me in physical transformation, qi manipulation, and formation setup, that's perfectly normal."
The more he spoke, the darker Su Youli's face became, and her calm gaze sent chills down his spine.
"I'm so sorry, I'm only good at swordsmanship." She gritted her teeth and once again reached out her claws towards Modi.
After tossing and turning with Modi for a while, she wiped her sweat, leaned against him, intertwined her fingers with his, and connected her own four sexual cycles into his body.
Although they are not from the same origin, they have even merged their souls, so this is naturally not a problem.
The circulation within their bodies resonated and complemented each other; with each completed cycle, their cultivation level would slightly improve.
Su Youli lay in his arms, enjoying the thrill of AFK cultivation while pondering something.
She asked softly, "Modi, you are practicing the Food Feast Cult's techniques, right?"
Guang said, "That's right. Speaking of which, I have quite a connection with the Feast Sect. Not long after I arrived, I managed to gather their two fundamental techniques." Mo Di said regretfully, "It's just a pity that I still can't restore the 'Four Qi and Five Flavors Nourishing Body Method,' but that doesn't matter. I'm already trying to create my own technique."
"Others' techniques can only serve as my resources."
During his time at the Su family's residence, he intentionally collected various cultivation techniques.
From some rarer ones, such as "Six Dreams Erosion Curse Chapter", "Seven-Seven Soul-Severing Palm", and "Three Meridians and Seven Wheels Root Source Sutra", to common ones, such as "Wildball Fist", "Boy's Kung Fu", and "Iron Shirt".
He has collected them all.
The more he collected and analyzed, the deeper his understanding of martial arts in this world became.
Now, he has roughly deduced the prototype of his own martial arts technique based on "Blood Shadow Divine Skill", "Treatise on the Prosperity of Qi and Blood", "Four Qi" and "Five Flavors".
"Besides deduce the cultivation method, I also need to get Yuan Tu A Bi equipped with a heavenly weapon, then integrate it into my body as my fifth and sixth marks. I also need to try to find the Heavenly Book, and I have a base to manage..."
Modi explained his plans and adjusted his position to make the girl on top of him more comfortable.
Su Youli listened quietly without saying a word until he closed his mouth, then she spoke: "You should be more careful. The Five Sects are extremely hostile to the Feast Sect and have always ordered their disciples not to let any remnants of the Feast Sect go unpunished."
"Even those who merely practice the Food Feast Cult's techniques will likely not be spared by those old fogies."
"And what about you?" Mo Di chuckled. "As an elder of Hidden Sword Peak, you cultivate the same technique as me. What kind of nonsense is that?"
"You know perfectly well what I'm asking." She rolled her eyes and turned to the side. "I came into this world for you, so I'm definitely on your side, regardless of whether the Food Cult is involved or not."
"Besides, I've even given you my soul, do you think you can just send me away?"
She was referring to the Dragon Soul.
In fact, she hadn't expected that the soul could exist independently of consciousness. The simulator was just too advanced; she couldn't understand this process of separating consciousness and soul at all.
Modi said calmly, "Don't worry, the Dragon Soul and the Styx Law have been fully integrated. If the Five Sects dare to cause trouble, they can test her power."
With his immortal-level dragon soul and the laws constructed around the Stained Holy Grail, he was confident he could rival the grandmasters of this world.
If he's really pushed too far, he can just activate the Seven-Headed Red Dragon form again—for someone who hasn't fully awakened, the burden in this form has been greatly reduced.
The seven-headed red dragon form, combined with the Dead Point Strike, will definitely give any invading Grandmaster an unexpected surprise!
"Speaking of Dragon Soul, for some reason, she seems to have... developed an independent will, and she even makes me call her 'Elena,' otherwise she throws a tantrum."
Modi's words alerted Su Youli. She had never heard of a dragon soul that could develop an independent will after losing consciousness.
"What does she usually like to do?" she asked.
"Doing things you used to enjoy doing, in that respect, she's quite like you." Modi scratched his face, his expression strange.
Su Youli remained silent for a moment, recalling what she used to love doing most, and her eyes suddenly turned dangerous.
A predator-like aura emanated from her, and Mordy, who possessed the Seed of the Soul, immediately sensed that a certain emotion seemed to have become heavy.
"Hey, Modi, doesn't our current state give off a feeling of dual cultivation? What do you think?"
The four cycles of the two overlap, forming a larger cycle. The power of both sides merges and is enhanced through this cycle, eventually flowing back into their respective bodies.
From an academic perspective, it's not entirely wrong to use that term.
Before Mo Di could finish speaking, Su Youli flipped over and stood up, still holding his hand, and pulled him up from the ground.
Then she grabbed his hand and pulled him into her bedroom.
"Come on, come inside with me."
"?"
In the dim light, Modi seemed to hear the mournful cry of the Styx Law.
Several days later, the day before the Five Sects Grand Competition officially began.
Almost all the members of the five sects who participated in the competition came, and the entire Tianyong City was packed with people. All the inns and hotels were full. In addition to the disciples of the five sects who participated in the competition, there were also a large number of wandering people from the martial arts world who came to watch the battle.
Disciples of the five sects hold a prestigious status and have their own accommodations, so they don't have to compete for inn rooms.
But those江湖人士 (jianghu figures) are different; in order to have a place to live, some even discuss sharing a room with others.
The influx of a large number of martial arts figures has made Tianyong City a mixed bag, significantly increasing the difficulty of maintaining public order.
Inside a restaurant on the third floor, Fu Fangheng was with his fellow disciples, either drinking and eating, or looking down at the street below, without the slightest tension.
A senior brother put his arm around Fu Fangheng's shoulder and asked, "Junior Brother Fu, I heard that you and Junior Sister came here in Daoist Minghe's carriage, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Fu Fangheng asked, somewhat puzzled.
"You don't know?" The senior brother smiled mysteriously and whispered, "That Daoist Styx is no ordinary person; his bloodthirstiness is extraordinary. Do you know Zhao Chenfeng?"
Fu Fangheng was taken aback, then nodded and said:
"Zhao Chenfeng? That genius who was personally taught by the Azure Nether Palace of Hidden Sword Peak and broke through to the Divine罡 Realm long ago?"
"Yes, but he was a genius of the past; he's dead now."
"Dead? Who dares to kill him? Who can kill him?" Fu Fanghengran said, "Of course it's that Daoist Styx. It's said that on his first day in the city, he not only killed Zhao Chenfeng, but also most of the Zhao family. Hmph, what a bloodthirsty person he is."
Senior brother exclaimed in amazement, "I bet the Azure Nether Palace won't let this go so easily, they...: Oh, here they come."
Fu Fangheng turned his head and looked in the direction he was pointing. He saw a group of cultivators dressed in clothes that symbolized the status of elders of Cangjian Peak, each with the aura of a Divine Gang Realm cultivator, walking in a grand procession down the street.
It seems they're going to cause trouble for someone.
"Something's not right," the senior brother suddenly spoke up. "Too many people went. The Azure Nether Palace doesn't have that many Divine Qi Realm experts, unless... the entire Hidden Sword Peak came out in force..."
"A major event, this is definitely a major event."
His expression suddenly became excited, like a paparazzi who had caught a whiff of big news. He grabbed the bewildered Fu Fangheng and pulled him outside.
