Bi Changchun's Masterpiece

P. S.: Um... ahem, I'm shamelessly asking for some recommendation votes! Ahem... I promise, if this week's recommendation votes exceed 2,000, I'll write three chapters every day next week. If it reaches 3,000, then four chapters a day. If I can't do that, I'll compensate with two chapters for every one less. Um... I've been a little embarrassed to ask for more after the previous few breaks, but I'm a bit lazy, so I'm asking for recommendation votes to put pressure on myself. If you have any votes, please support me! It's really not good to waste recommendation votes.

The two traveled westward, Yue Qianchou flying low on his sword, following behind the demoness. The demoness's slender figure seemed to float on the grass, her feet barely touching the Qingcao, appearing light and airy, yet Yue Qianchou was astonished; she was practically flying on grass! It seemed even more graceful than that. Her slender figure, pink dress, even her shoes were small and pink, the Qingcao swaying with her toes, carrying her far away. Her flowing hair, pink dress against the Qingcao —she was breathtakingly beautiful!

Plant spirits truly possess unique advantages! Yue Qianchou suddenly asked, "What kind of monster is that old demon?"

The succubus replied somewhat timidly, "He is an ancient vine spirit who has cultivated for a thousand years. Everyone in this area calls him Old Monster Teng." She was no match for that Vine Monster to begin with, but now this man in front of her could even make the Vine Monster flee in disarray and chase it all the way to its lair. With such abilities, dealing with her would naturally be no problem, so it's not surprising that she was afraid.

"Oh! No wonder you use vines as weapons." The banshee's words confirmed his guess. He looked at the lithe figure in front of him with interest and said, "I heard that Old Monster Teng you Peach Blossom. Could you be a peach tree spirit?"

The female demon hummed softly and said, "Sir's guess is correct. I am indeed a peach tree spirit who has cultivated for a thousand years."

"Peach Blossom, you and that old demon have both cultivated for a thousand years, so why are you no match for him?" Yue Qianchou asked.

"Although we have both cultivated for a thousand years, he took human form two hundred years ago. I am just a Nascent Soul Realm and not good at fighting, so naturally I am no match for him," the Peach Blossom Demoness replied.

Yue Qianchou nodded slightly. He had heard Bai Suzhen mention these things before. Among the Demon Race, the cultivation of plant spirits was even more difficult than that of animals. It was extremely difficult for them to cultivate and gain spiritual insight. How could plants without intelligence cultivate? Therefore, it was much more difficult for them to become spirits than for ordinary animals. To reach the point where they could transform into human form, all Demon Race had to reach the Nascent Soul Realm stage of cultivation. Most plants withered and died in the end, unable to gather intelligence to cultivate. Even those that could cultivate often struggled for thousands of years without being able to transform into human form. In the eyes of human cultivators, this lifespan would be enough for even those at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage to die of old age.

As the saying goes, there are gains and losses. Heaven may seem unfair, but it is also quite fair. Compared to humans, demons, or ghosts, the cultivation of late Spirit Transformation stage, it is said that the heavenly tribulation is the weakest, and they can almost always ascend to the immortal realm. This can only be described as a blessing from heaven.

"Since you can't beat him, why don't you agree to Old Monster Teng's repeated demands for you to submit to him?" Yue Qianchou laughed.

"If I hadn't refused, I'm afraid I would have died a violent death long ago," Peach Blossom whispered.

Yue Qianchou asked curiously, "Why is that?" His thoughts were wandering. Could it be that the Old Demon knew some kind of yin-yang replenishment method and was draining his mating partner dry? He wondered how two plant spirits could mate.

Peach Blossom bit her lip and said, "Sir, you should be careful on your journey. Old Monster Teng has a wife named Old Lady Teng, whose cultivation is even higher than Old Monster Teng's. She has reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul and is a subordinate of the local Demon King, Wood Lady Mu."

Although she didn't answer directly, Yue Qianchou understood. She guessed that Old Lady Teng was a jealous woman who couldn't tolerate her husband having other women. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "What kind of demon is this Demon King, Wood Lady Mu? Is she the Demon King who rules this place?"

"Wood Lady Mu is a magnolia flower fairy, whose cultivation has reached the late Tribulation Transcendence stage. She is the Demon King who rules this place."

Yue Qianchou let out an "oh" and thought to himself, "Why are there so many plant spirits here?" Looking around, he understood. The vegetation here was indeed much more lush than in other parts of the Demon Ghost Domain, making it a good place for plant spirits to emerge.

Speaking of Wood Lady Mu, he thought of the Three Saints of the Spirit Mist who were killed back then. One of them, Lady Hong, was definitely a flirtatious and beautiful demon. He wondered what Wood Lady Mu looked like. As he was thinking, a flash of inspiration struck him. Didn't he have a demon-revealing Demon-Illuminating Mirror? He hadn't used it before because he was worried that Bai Suzhen was also a demon. Now that he was in the Demon Ghost Domain, wouldn't it be perfect to use it?

"Let's give it a try, "Yue Qianchou immediately took out the exquisite Demon-Illuminating Mirror. Judging from the chain on it, this treasure was meant to be worn around the neck. After putting it on, he looked at the Peach Blossom in front of him with the mirror, but found nothing. Only after channeling his Divine Sense into it did he discover its wondrous use. It turned out that he was using his Divine Sense to view through the Divine Sense -Demon-Illuminating Mirror. The Peach Blossom he saw in the mirror were no longer slender women; instead, a peach tree full of blossoms appeared clearly in the Demon-Illuminating Mirror.

"The Divine Craftsman truly lives up to his Divine Craftsman; his creations are indeed wondrous." Yue Qianchou exclaimed in admiration. After withdrawing his Divine Sense from the mirror, he felt that the small bronze mirror hanging on his chest was rather unsightly, almost indistinguishable from the longevity locks worn around the necks of ordinary children. So he tucked the mirror back into his robe and tried channeling his Divine Sense into the Peach Blossom again. Fortunately, it still revealed the Peach Blossom's true form. "What a wonderful thing!" He touched his chest; the Demon-Illuminating Mirror was still hanging there.

Along the way, they kept encountering some of the largest groups of creatures in the Demon Ghost Domain, the Blood Wolf that Yue Qianchou had seen when he first arrived. These ferocious animals were fearless and undaunted. Yue Qianchou had dealt with them before and knew that if they summoned their companions, it would be troublesome even if he wasn't afraid. So, without saying a word, he killed them one by one, not even giving them a chance to howl. This action made Peach Blossom a little terrified.

Emerging from the dense forest, the view suddenly opened up. A few hundred meters away, a towering stone mountain appeared to have been cleaved in two; one half remained intact, while the other seemed to have been moved away. Vines spread everywhere at the foot of the mountain, covering the entire area. Yue Qianchou pointed to the mountain wall blocking their path and asked, "Is this the Xishan Cliff you mentioned? Is it the hiding place of that old demon?"

"Exactly!" Peach Blossom glanced around timidly and said, "Sir, please be careful. It would be troublesome if Old Lady Teng were here."

"Tsk tsk! This stone mountain looks like it was cleaved in two. The power of nature is truly amazing, beyond human capabilities!" Yue Qianchou exclaimed as he looked at the smooth stone wall. He was clearly admiring the scenery. As for Old Lady Teng, he wasn't afraid of her at all. Since she was the subordinate of the Demon King who controlled this place, what could she possibly do to Bi Changchun's disciple?

"Sir, this stone wall was not formed by natural forces, but by human hands. It was cleaved open by a single sword strike," Peach Blossom whispered a reminder.

"Uh..." Yue Qianchou immediately stood there, mouth agape, stunned. This stone wall was probably seven or eight hundred meters high and three or four hundred meters wide, and it was a mountain made entirely of stone. Could someone really split this entire mountain in two with a single sword strike? That was simply unbelievable! He asked incredulously, "Split it in two with a single sword strike? That's impossible! Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but everyone in this area knows about it." Peach Blossom glanced around nervously, bit her lip, and slowly said while looking at the stone wall, "It is said that more than a thousand years ago, the Blood Wolf Clan was the most powerful being in the Demon Ghost Domain. At that time, the Blood Wolf King's cultivation broke through to the Spirit Transformation stage, and he had the largest group under his command in the entire Demon Ghost Domain. So he harbored rebellious intentions and was no longer willing to obey the 'Punishment Envoy's' constraints. As a result, he fought a great battle with the 'Punishment Envoy' here and was finally killed by the 'Punishment Envoy'. This stone wall was cleaved in two by the 'Punishment Envoy's' sword during that battle, and the other half of the mountain was shattered. The Blood Wolf King was buried under these rubble. If you peel back these green vines, you will find that there are rubble underneath."

Yue Qianchou stared at the half-stone wall, his mind a little dazed. More than a thousand years ago? At that time, Bi Changchun should have already taken over as the 'Punishment Envoy' of the Demon Ghost Domain. He swallowed hard and asked, "That great battle... um... the 'Punishment Envoy' you mentioned, is it Immortal Master is now on Shuntian Island?"

"It was Immortal Master Bi. After that great battle, I heard that I angered Immortal Master Bi, and then..." Peach Blossom seemed to realize that she had said too much, and looked around guiltily, not daring to continue.

But Yue Qianchou was eager to know what that old bastard Bi Changchun had done next, so he urged, "What happened next? Tell me quickly!"

He pressed her hard, but Peach Blossom hesitated and wouldn't speak. Finally, after being threatened by Yue Qianchou, she reluctantly said, "After that great battle, the 'Punishment Envoy' was furious. Over 400,000 members of the Blood Wolf clan with any cultivation were wiped out by the 'Punishment Envoy' overnight. At that time, there was still one demon and one Demon Ghost Domain in the Spirit Transformation stage, but they were implicated because of that incident. The 'Punishment Envoy' said they had provoked the whole thing and demanded that the two Spirit Transformation stage cultivators commit suicide as atonement. The demon and ghost naturally refused, so the 'Punishment Envoy' Spirit Transformation stage them both alone and finally killed them as well. From then on, apart from the 'Punishment Envoy,' there were no more Spirit Transformation stage in the entire Demon Ghost Domain. Sir, that's all I know; I really don't know anything else."

Yue Qianchou stared blankly at the stone wall and nodded. Good heavens, this stone mountain was actually Bi Changchun's masterpiece, cleaved in two by a single sword strike! His cultivation level was terrifying! To annihilate over 400,000 Blood Wolf with cultivation in one night—ruthless! Utterly ruthless! And to kill two Spirit Transformation stage at the same time—two Spirit Transformation stage! The scene of that battle must have been incredibly thrilling, beyond description. One Spirit Transformation stage killing two Spirit Transformation stage at the same time—good heavens!

He's truly formidable and ruthless. No wonder the demons and ghosts of the entire Demon Ghost Domain tremble with fear at the mere mention of Bi Changchun's name, not daring to even raise their voices. Who would dare to speak loudly when faced with such a killing god? No wonder He Li said he was merciless towards demons and ghosts, killing without mercy at the slightest provocation! It's no exaggeration.

"This Immortal Master is indeed remarkable, hehe..." Yue Qianchou forced a smile. After learning about Bi Changchun's glorious deeds, he was indeed quite frightened. He just hoped that Bi Changchun hadn't seen through his little tricks. If he angered this god of death, with his cultivation level, he was afraid he wouldn't even have time to escape...
