Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Chapter 496: Chapter 189: Sword Like Azure Rainbow, Able to Sever the Heavens (Part 3)

”Should we pursue them?”

The man on the left frowned as he looked toward the poison-misted dense forest path.

”Ahead is the Black Death Forest, filled with the power of Yin evil, inhabited by various powerful demon-like creatures, and swarming with many Demon Martial Artists.”

”To rush in recklessly is akin to seeking death.”

”Let’s go, first regroup with the others.”

The man on the right shook his head, turned around, and vanished into the forest.

After the two left, a figure slowly emerged from the dense forest; it was the very man who had just fled in embarrassment.

”Ha, a bunch of cowards, if you’re so bold, then come after me!”

The man sneered coldly, his appearance shifting to that of Pei Xuan.

”The Palace Master instructed us to stay hidden and avoid the attention for a while. Pei Xuan, why are you still provoking them?”

A rather eerie voice echoed through the forest.

The rustling sound came as a man with a sinister appearance slowly emerged.

”How did I provoke them?”

”I was just strolling in the city when they inexplicably targeted me. It’s not like I was looking for trouble!” Pei Xuan said displeased.

He turned and headed into the forest with the sinister man.

”Has the Palace Master issued new orders?” Pei Xuan asked.

”The order came a few days ago for us to wait in the Black Death Forest; new tasks will arrive soon,” the sinister man said lightly.

”Oh, then I’ll be off.”

Pei Xuan waved his hand and disappeared into the forest.

Within the forest, the roars of demons occasionally echoed, resounding through the mountains and forests.

The entire dense forest was saturated with an extreme concentration of Yin evil force, and any fierce beast that accidentally strayed into this Black Death Forest would gradually transform into new demons.

In this forest saturated with rich Yin evil force, Pei Xuan felt no discomfort; instead, he felt as if a fish had returned to water, experiencing a sense of ease.

Reaching the depths of the Black Death Forest, Pei Xuan entered a dense thicket and appeared in a deep tunnel.

After walking for a while, the cave suddenly opened up to reveal a vast square and a cluster of buildings with a mysterious style.

”Duan Ping, I have a task for you.”

Pei Xuan found Duan Ping and spoke lightly.

”Please instruct me, sir,”

Duan Ping said respectfully.

”Take a few skilled Transforming Force practitioners with mastery of Lightweight Skill, keep a constant watch on the Infinite Sect’s newly promoted True Disciple, Lin Zheyu. Wait for an opportunity, then strike and bring his head to me.”

Pei Xuan said lightly, a hint of violent slaughter in his eyes.

”Yes, sir.”

Duan Ping responded and promptly turned to leave.

”So he became a True Disciple of the Infinite Sect and even made it onto the Hidden Dragon List. His talent in Martial Dao is truly monstrous.”

”But what of it, no matter how high his talent, if he doesn’t grow strong, he’s just an ant.”

”I particularly enjoy snuffing out these genius Martial Artists.”

”After several pursuits, I almost didn’t make it. Not just with Infinite Sect, but with the other sects as well, I will settle accounts one by one.”

Pei Xuan’s heart was filled with a desire for slaughter.

The whites of his eyes nearly disappeared, and if he lost control, they would completely transform into black pupils, appearing exceedingly terrifying and bizarre.

”If you don’t control yourself, heedlessly absorbing the Yin evil force to enhance your strength, not even the Mother of Pain can redeem you.”

The eerie voice sounded behind him again.

The sinister man entered the hall and sat down opposite Pei Xuan.

”You should mind your own business. If not for relying on the True Intent of Ice to freeze your mental emotions, how much better off would you be than me?”

”Wu Chen, do you have any Demon Suppression Elixirs left? Lend me a few, and I’ll return them when the next batch of elixirs arrives.”

Pei Xuan looked at the sinister man.

”None left.”

”I only have two remaining, which I need for myself. You should ask Bao Guanlin; he probably still has a lot of Demon Suppression Elixirs.”

Wu Chen said coldly.

”Where is Bao Guanlin? I’ll go borrow a few from him,” Pei Xuan said.

”He hasn’t returned yet; he’s likely still being hunted by the experts of various sects.”

Wu Chen said without a trace of emotion, as if recounting an unimportant matter.

His expression was exceptionally cold, with terrifying violence and madness hidden deep within his emotionless pupils.

This violence and madness were tightly suppressed by him, but should they explode one day, Wu Chen would likely lose his self-awareness instantly, becoming a demon conscious only of killing.

”Damn!”

Pei Xuan cursed.

He rose and left the hall, proceeding to the square, where he respectfully started worshipping the Divine Demon Statue with three sticks of incense.

Without the Demon Suppression Elixirs to suppress the Yin evil force in his body, he could only use this method, borrowing the power of the Mother of Pain.

Given the choice, Pei Xuan would not want to rely on the Mother of Pain’s power.

If he worshipped too often, his spirit and will would be baptized by the Mother of Pain’s power, transformed into a fanatic follower.

This outcome was not much better than losing one’s intellect and becoming a demon that only knew slaughter.

...

Morning.

Gold sunlight filtered through the clouds to shine on Lin Zheyu’s face.

Unconsciously, he had spent another night in cultivation.

Guo Wenzi had left the previous night, leaving Lin Zheyu sitting alone in the courtyard until dawn.

”Sir, sir, it’s morning.”

The voice of Yuqing came to his ears, and Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes.

He had instructed Yuqing, should he unconsciously cultivate until the next day, to wake him after sunrise.

Today, he still needed to go to the Cyan Rainbow Sect to challenge Fan Qingxue.

”Sir, the medicinal bath is ready. After soaking, you can have breakfast,” Yuqing said respectfully.

Lin Zheyu nodded lightly, got up, and entered the house.

The frost clinging to his body was gently shaken off as he moved.
