I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Yinn Xingchao was speaking one moment about how this was a plot by the Demon Race, and that they wouldn’t engage again. Yet now he was asking in the boat if anyone dared to go out for a fight, contradicting himself, leaving the disciples somewhat puzzled.

Seeing this, Yinn Xingchao smiled faintly, flicked his fingers, and surprisingly, another spiritual artifact emerged from his sleeve.

It was a cyan-green bean the size of a dragon eye, floating unceasingly in the air, jumpy and eager, seemingly wanting to transform.

”This is the Cyan Yi Spirit Bean, capable of transforming, replacing someone to guard the Dharma Boat. It was bestowed by the Daoist School, specifically for this battle.”

Then he waved his robe again, and a black gourd floated out, flickering with a strong Evil Qi.

”This gourd is called ’Earth Evil Gourd.’ It is full of Earth Evil Qi, best at contaminating spiritual mechanisms and weakening the power of a grand array.”

”The Demon Race’s challenge is merely to delay our time breaking the array. The more they do this, the more we should act contrary.”

”If there are courageous individuals, holding this gourd, go out of the boat and release the Earth Evil Poison, wear down the Earth Evil Celestial Water Array. The Demon Race cannot sit still; they must come out to challenge, break the crisis of this gourd. Then we can slay the Demon Race and avenge Junior Brother Ji.”

”I initially didn’t want to employ this method, but the Demon Race are stubborn, so there’s no need to be courteous!”

Clearly, with a Foundation Establishment Cultivator being slain right under his gaze, the morale wavered, and Yinn Xingchao was somewhat displeased. At this moment, using two treasures, his eyes burned as he looked at everyone in the boat.

”I am willing to avenge Junior Brother Ji!”

Yinn Xingchao barely finished speaking when Su Jingming stood up, loudly responding.

”Good!”

”Remember, although most of the Demon Race are scaly and armored, they are a mixed bag, and there are exotic species born naturally with strange ways. Be careful, and if anything goes wrong, act decisively. I will use the power of the Dharma Boat to support you!”

”You only need to kill the Demon Race, then return, no need to stay in battle.”

Seeing Su Jingming brimming with spirit, Yinn Xingchao showed a satisfied expression, waving his hand to hand over the Earth Evil Gourd to him, but still warned.

This battle, if lost again, will surely greatly diminish morale, not beneficial for the subsequent campaigns.

”How can mere Demons withstand the true methods of our Daoist School? Rest assured, Senior Brother, I shall slay this band!”

Su Jingming bowed in salute, then held the precious gourd tightly, transforming into a stream of light, heading straight out of the Dharma Boat.

Everyone’s Divine Sense surged out, watching together with Su Jingming outside the Dharma Boat.

...

...

”Crash!”

Su Jingming exited the Dharma Boat, wasted no words, and threw the Earth Evil Gourd above his head. Instantly, countless black Evil Qi surged out like a tide, clawing and gnashing, heading toward the array above the Great River below.

”Hiss hiss!”

The sound of corrosion and gnawing echoed above the Earth Evil Celestial Water Array.

The light of the array dimmed slightly; although the change was extremely subtle, the rolling Earth Evil Power seemed inexhaustible, continually eroding the power of the array. Coupled with Yinn Xingchao on the Dharma Boat gathering everyone’s strength, with thick spiritual mechanisms, simultaneously severing the water vein and earth power of the array, for a moment, the Demon Race’s array’s aura continually weakened.

At this rate, no need for half a month, at most seven days, the array would be thoroughly worn down.

Seeing this, the Demon Race couldn’t sit still, Demon Qi roiled, and a burly figure emerged from the rolling Demon Qi, looking fiercely at Su Jingming.

”Pah, you call yourselves the Righteous Daoist Sect, yet resort to such despicable means. Once the Earth Evil Poison Gas is released, within a hundred miles, spiritual mechanisms are contaminated, nothing grows for a hundred years—truly shameless!”

This big man was none other than the Silver-Horned Hans who previously killed Ji Fenghua, holding a great halberd, cursing at Su Jingming.

”To deal with you inhuman beings, why need ethics? Come and take my head if you dare, shatter the treasure gourd!”

Su Jingming showed no courtesy, retorting angrily.

”I’ll ensure you won’t return!”

The Silver-Horned Hans roared angrily, wielded his great halberd, and charged straight at Su Jingming.

Cloud Qi roiled, spiritual mechanisms swayed, the Silver-Horned Hans’s true demon form was unknown, but his Qi Power was astounding. With one swing of the halberd, it was as if he could split a mountain, extremely formidable.

”Hiss!”

But Su Jingming neither dodged nor flinched, green divine light flashed in his eyes, his Divine Sense surged out, coalescing into a massive vine-like whip, aiming straight at the Sea of Consciousness of Silver-Horned Hans.

The Power of Divine Sense was the swiftest, like lightning, attacking the Silver-Horned Hans even before the great halberd could reach.

”Ha!”

Yet the Silver-Horned Hans only coldly sneered, opened his mouth to shout, sound waves rolled with a terrifying howl, greeting Su Jingming’s Divine Sense assault.

Although Demon Race beings do not cultivate Divine Sense, their natural five senses are acute, and those with exceptional talents have their ways to counter the cultivators’ Power of Divine Sense.

This howl contained powerful Soul Capturing Power, not only resisting Su Jingming’s Divine Sense assault but faintly also had a suppressing effect, holding Su Jingming in place, unable to move.

”Slash!”

Seeing this, the Silver-Horned Hans leaped, the great halberd descended like Mount Tai, directly splitting ”Su Jingming” in two.

But the Su Jingming before him did not spill any ”blood,” instead turning into countless wood chips, fluttering down.

In the distance, green light flashed, Su Jingming appeared again, his body intact, though his complexion slightly pale.

The Silver-Horned Hans, seeing this, also wasted no words, pressed forward again wanting to engage Su Jingming in close combat.

Su Jingming suffered a loss, yet his eyes showed no sign of discouragement, instead a cold smile appeared.
