The Quest for Immortality

True Man Situ made a move.

He had just sensed something unusual and immediately took action; it all happened within just a few breaths, which was impressively swift.

Unfortunately, the ’corruption’ of the human mind is but a matter of an instant.

By the time he acted, the monk had already, like the scholar, become a slave to yearning, not only was half his face ravaged by worm-like lip marks to the point of being blood-soaked, but even his neck and chest were a bloodied mess.

True Man Situ could only use the Red Gold Cup of Six Yang to temporarily suppress the evil thoughts within him, and then said:

”Chant the spell, quickly leave!”

His injuries were too severe, he couldn’t be saved, staying here would undoubtedly mean death, and he would certainly become a ”puppet” of the Evil God, fighting against his own allies.

As for what fate might await after leaving, that could only be left to fortune.

The monk also wore an expression of shame and regret, folding his hands together and saying:

”This humble monk... is ashamed of having failed the Buddhist order.”

”Go!” True Man Situ urged urgently.

The monk gritted his teeth, recited the spell True Man Situ had taught him, and then as he vanished with a flash of Seven Stars light, his Primordial Spirit began to twist.

But in the next moment, the space began to shake, deepening the evil thoughts.

It seemed as if some powerful will was impeding the monk’s departure.

However, this force had yet to awaken and could not truly obstruct the starlight might of the Mystic Sky Beidou Seven Star Formation, and after a momentary standoff, the evil power retreated, starlight shone brilliantly, the monk’s Primordial Spirit twisted into a vortex, and he was forcibly pulled out of the nightmare.

The monk left, leaving True Man Situ with an extremely grave expression.

He wondered in his heart:

”When did Master Kuji, whose Buddhist law is so profound, fall under this spell?”

Unless the Evil God True Embryo was reborn, once the mantra of Prajna Temple was invoked, it wouldn’t so easily have its mental defenses breached and corrupted by such a fetal demon.

Why?

True Man Situ frowned and pondered, and then suddenly his pupils contracted as he understood.

Not now, but before.

Along the way, they had been fighting with evil spirits, and the Prajna mantra couldn’t be constantly activated, so there must have been times when it revealed vulnerabilities.

It was surely during such a moment of vulnerability that this sinister fetal demon unknowingly sowed the seed of evil desire.

This seed gradually grew, only now taking effect.

Master Kuji’s Buddhist law could guard against evil desires.

But he had already been ”polluted” before he could activate the Buddhist law.

This led him to doubt his own Buddhist teachings, which caused a disturbance within, thus a fracture appeared in his Taoist Heart.

This was a major taboo when confronting evil demons!

Therefore, within just a few breaths, the evil desire had already corroded his mental defenses.

And once the defenses were breached, it was too late for regrets.

True Man Situ secretly resented with gritted teeth.

These evil beings’ corrosion of the human heart is truly imperceptible, yet pervasive.

What exactly is this fetal demon?

True Man Situ looked around, saying in a deep voice, ”Everyone, be careful, find the trace of this fiend.”

No sooner had he spoken than the air was filled with an enchanting sound that captivated one’s mind, even True Man Situ’s mind wavered for a moment, then his face changed immediately, ”Watch out!”

Almost at the same time, a dark shadow indeed appeared beside the woman in white.

A bright red lip print moved in to kiss her.

The woman in white’s face turned icy.

Born with exceptional divine sense, she was cultivating the secret divine techniques of the great sect family, and her Magic Treasure, the Three Pure Ones Bell, had a notable background, plus being a woman, she had a stronger natural resistance to such seduction.

Therefore, she awoke early by a breath, seeing the blood-red lip print approaching, she immediately activated the Three Pure Ones Bell, blasting the ”Break Demon” sound.

The evil shadow twisted, emitting a piercing screech.

Not far off, the old woman immediately activated the half-remained Six Ding Six Jia to entangle the evil shadow.

Six Ding Six Jia is a divine puppet, without mind or thoughts, immune to charm.

True Man Situ also immediately cast a beam of Six Yang Red Gold light to envelop the evil shadow.

Under the combined efforts of several people, the light repelled the darkness, burned away the evil Qi, and the evil shadow revealed its true form.

It was a female-like demon monster.

Its body was tall and graceful, full of endless allure, but its limbs and skin were covered in purple-pink decayed flesh, the face was marked by sinewy demonic patterns, the features twisted, inhuman, with only the lips fresh and tempting, exuding an alluring fragrance.

”Pink Fetal Demon.”

True Man Situ frowned, finding it troublesome, then relaxed slightly as he sensed this fetal demon’s realm.

Peak of Third Grade.

This was a Peak of Third Grade evil embryonic companion demon monster.

According to ancient texts passed down in Mystery Valley, the demon accompanying the Evil God True Embryo would be slightly higher in grade than the evil embryo but not more than one full grade higher.

This means the Evil God True Embryo is also Third Grade.

And with us, besides those at Feather Transformation, there are those at Heaven Void. With the suppression of a major realm, dealing with the Evil God becomes somewhat easier.

If it were a Fourth-grade Evil God True Embryo, once it emerged, there would be no doubt that all of us would die.

For now, we at least have a fighting chance.

”Quick and decisive, kill this fetal demon!”

True Man Situ’s gaze was cold, his voice decisive, as he pointed with two fingers, casting a beam of red gold light over.

The Taoist summoned the Peach Wood Sword, the old woman called upon the Six Ding Six Jia, and the several Heaven Void Ancestors no longer held back, releasing Sword Qi and Spell while unleashing the sharp power of Divine Thought.

But in the next instant, the pink fetal demon gave a sinister smile, and right before everyone’s eyes, vanished.

No one’s Primordial Spirit could detect it.

”A fetal demon born with the Evil God, receiving the Evil God’s blessings, is indeed incredibly cunning and insidious...”
