Chapter 1033: Chapter 887 Mahayana Heart Demon_2

"This... this is..."

The two looked at each other, speechless, both shocked.

After a long while, the male sword practitioner murmured, "Even if he were a cultivator who has achieved Integration, the feeling he gives us wouldn’t be so terrifying... I’m afraid it might be... Mahayana!?"

"At a time when our human race is in turmoil, is it finally going to witness the rise of another Mahayana existence?"

The female cultivator looked back with admiration and reverence in her eyes.

Even though they had advanced to Returning to Emptiness, they had little hope of reaching Integration in this life, let alone becoming a Mahayana, the pillar of the race.

Elsewhere.

"Hee hee... This is the second time, huh? You think you can slip past me just on the strength of an exotic treasure?"

Transformed into human form, Xiao Qing looked ahead into the void with a smile, her green-shadowed eyes carrying a hint of coldness, "If you were to get past and offend my master... I cannot afford to take the blame, so you better die!"

With a flick of her hand, a pitch-black mirror flew out.

As Fang Xi’s spiritual pet, Xiao Qing was the first to get close to the water tower and obtained many treasures from the cultivators who were killed by Fang Xi, and she could even pick and choose from among them.

This pitch-black mirror was naturally a seventh-order treasure!

The black treasure mirror hung in the air, suddenly emitting a gloomy radiance that locked onto a particular spot in the void.

A figure in a purple robe appeared, his cultivation around the early stage of Integration, holding in his hand a crystal-clear leaf, his face showing an uncertain and surprised expression, "Is this... the ’Mystic Light Mirror’? No wonder it could break through my ’One Leaf Blinds the Eye’ secret skill. But wasn’t the ’Mystic Light Mirror’ the treasure of Changqingzi? How come it’s here?"

This person seemed to be quite knowledgeable, as he recognized the origin of the ’Mystic Light Mirror’.

At that moment, he let out a strange cry, and his figure swiftly turned into mist, scattering in all directions, as purple butterflies flew in every direction.

It was evident that after the failure of his unique secret skill, the purple-robed cultivator didn’t think he could fight against the Integration-stage Azure Luan, and he chose to flee.

"Quickly!"

Seeing this, Xiao Qing smiled slightly and cast a magic spell.

Above the Mystic Light Mirror, black beams of light emerged, like arrows piercing through each of the purple butterflies.

With a gentle rubbing of her delicate hand, a green feather fan appeared, and just a light wave produced a strange wind between heaven and earth.

The void rippled subtly as the figure of the purple-robed man emerged in an embarrassed state, his robe already marked with slashes.

Whoosh!

A blur of green shadow, and Xiao Qing was already in front of the man, her mouth slightly open as a line of green fire appeared.

This was the Azure Luan True Fire!

After Xiao Qing’s advancement to Integration, this life-bound flame had also evolved and had become one of the most powerful True Fires in the Earth Immortal Realm.

The purple-robed man’s black jade pendant shone brightly, forming a protective screen.

On the screen were numerous colorful prohibitions, interwoven and forming strange symbols.

Crack!

The green line of fire hit the screen, hesitated only for a moment, and then penetrated the screen, moving directly in front of the purple-robed man.

Blaze!

The thin line of green fire quickly expanded into a net of green flame that enveloped him from above.

The intense heat burned the void, causing continuous ripples.

The purple-robed man’s treasures melted in an instant, and even his physical body was scorched.

Spurt!

Suddenly, the purple-robed man’s body turned to ashes in the firelight, leaving only a purple Nascent Soul screaming, "I am..."

Whoosh!

The green fire net fell, seeming to carry the power to seal the void, preventing the Nascent Soul from instantaneously escaping.

Then, strands of green fire wrapped around the purple Nascent Soul, and in a flash of green light, the Nascent Soul vanished into nothingness, leaving only a purple treasure bottle falling from mid-air.

"I don’t care who your backup is, my master said to show no mercy!"

Xiao Qing smiled and extended her hand, retrieving the purple treasure bottle before her gaze shifted to a certain spot.

There, a streak of escape light suddenly appeared, tinged with blood, desperately fleeing back the way it had come...

...

Fake Immortal Vein.

Inside the dongfu.

Two identical Fang Xis sat opposite each other.

"Is this what the Nascent Soul looks like after reaching Great Perfection?"

One ’Fang Xi’ touched his own cheek, feeling no different from real flesh and blood.

Upon reaching Nascent Soul’s full maturity, it could completely materialize, existing independently from the physical body!

Moreover, it could disperse and gather at will, and one more step forward would be the Origin Soul of immortality!

Suddenly, he approached the other Fang Xi, and their two silhouettes overlapped each other.

"The Heart Demon is about to arrive!"

Fang Xi murmured to himself, flipping his hand to stuff all the pills from several Ten Thousand Years of Empty Green bottles into his mouth.

Then, he picked up an exotic treasure that resembled a head ornament and tied it to his forehead.

After everything was done, Fang Xi’s Divine Consciousness blurred, and he momentarily forgot his whereabouts...

...

Thousand Island Lake.

Falling petals filled the air.

Under the Peach Blossom Tree, Fang Xi lifted the wine gourd and silently took a sip.

Suddenly turning his head, he saw an ordinary-looking Foundation Establishment female cultivator gracefully approaching: "Green Bamboo Wine is indeed fine, but one must not indulge too much..."

"Xingling?!"

Fang Xi turned back with a smile, yet deep inside him a passage surfaced—’All loving encounters are impermanent and can hardly last long. Life in this world is filled with fears, as one’s life is as fragile as dew in the morning. From love arises worry, from love arises fear. For those who stand apart from love, there’s no worry nor fear...’

’This is a line from the "Six Consciousness Heart Scroll"; wait, what is this Six Consciousness Heart Scroll?’

Surprised by his own thoughts, he suddenly felt confused, forgot about it, and wandered arm in arm with Ruan Xingling.

In a trance, the two became Taoist companions and lived a fairy-tale life on Peach Blossom Island.

Decades later.

Fang Xi let out a long howl, a green Golden Core condensed and he swallowed it.

The next instant, a blood-stained hand emerged from his abdomen, and prohibitions appeared, restraining the Golden Core.

He turned around in disbelief, staring at Ruan Xingling: "The method... of Core Taking? You..."

In a split second, six-colored radiance swirled in Fang Xi’s eyes, revealing a hint of a smile: "Break!"

He seemed to awaken the Buddhist tongue-based Divine Skill, exuding the air of a command that brings forth reality.

The bloodied ’Ruan Xingling’ paused for a moment, then dissipated like a dream or a mirage.

What came next were two enormous Demon Eyes, each with countless smaller eyes within, which could almost induce one to become possessed upon a single glance: "...Dying in the arms of a woman is far better than being tortured to death by the true Sky Demon..."

"Break!"

Fang Xi’s tongue blossomed like a lotus, but to no avail. He couldn’t help but feel shocked: "You... you’re not the Heart Demon?"

"Hehe... I am your Life-bound Demon Calamity. Give me your cultivation, your treasures, your opportunities, all of it!"

The Demon Eyes loomed high above, and a massive Demonic Palm descended.

"Life-bound Demon Calamity, Sky Demon Transmigration? How is that possible?"

Fang Xi’s eyes were filled with horror: "Could it be... because I cultivated the ’Self-Transforming Heavenly Sovereign Commanding Ten Thousand Spirits True Demon Skill’ from the Authentic Sky Demon Sect, it resulted in an additional Life-bound Demon Calamity within the Mahayana tribulations?!"
