The Outrageous Six Desires Heaven

"This young monk's internal organs are shattered. Unless he has heavenly treasures to heal him, he won't live for more than a few days."

Chen Xuan stared, dumbfounded, at the fallen young monk. His face was ashen, and he was severely injured, clearly on the verge of death.

"Cough..."

The young monk lay prostrate on the ground, coughing up large amounts of blood tinged with White Qi, mixed with fragments of his lungs and internal organs.

Monk Kong Wen's kick carried nearly ten thousand jin of force and was utterly merciless, almost completely destroying his chest.

Chen Xuan cultivated White Qi and understood the power of that kick, as well as how poor the defense of people like this was.

The Twelve Qi of Mountains and Seas each had their own marvels. Those who cultivated Metal Virtue White Qi, while their bodies were tough like metal and their killing power was immense, their vitality was far less tenacious than other types.

For example, a Fire Virtue Red Qi cultivator, even if their body was destroyed, as long as their soul's three thoughts remained, they would have a chance at Nirvana in the future.

Another example is a Wood Virtue Green Qi cultivator, who is the other extreme. Their body possesses boundless vitality, constantly regenerating. Even if only a head remains, as long as the Green Qi is not exhausted, the body will quickly regrow...

"The precepts and rules of the Hanging Temple are actually so strict? They can't tolerate their disciples making even a small mistake, not even speaking out?"

Chen Xuan found it unbelievable. The other party had merely spoken disrespectfully and didn't even have much hostility, yet Monk Kong Wen had directly struck down his junior brother, even forcing him to atone with his death.

No wonder the great monk he met in Small River Village was so terrified after overhearing the magic trick back then that he didn't even dare to return to the mountain gate.

Monk Kong Wen clasped his hands together, first expressing deep apologies to Chen Xuan for his junior brother's rashness and disrespectful words causing a misunderstanding, then explained:

"Fellow Daoist, do not be alarmed. It is not that our temple's precepts are strict and cannot tolerate disciples doing evil. Rather, this junior brother of mine has impure six roots. If he were to meet Yan Yushu later, I fear he would immediately become restless and his life would be worthless... At that time, defecting in battle would ruin the temple's important matter."

He spoke of this without hesitation, indicating that these temporarily summoned young monks were completely useless and might even hinder them.

Since he had discovered the issue at this moment, he naturally had to immediately remove him from the team.

Chen Xuan frowned and asked, "What exactly is Six Desires Heaven?"

Yellow Millet Dream was a reborn person.

So what kind of ability did this Six Desires Heaven possess? Why would seeing her result in a worthless life?

Monk Kong Wen glanced at his severely injured, dying junior brother in the distance, his expression solemn, and explained, "Men in this world, no, even women, as long as they see Yan Yushu once, will immediately develop a favorable impression, and then lose their true nature, willingly being played with by her, and from then on become a numb puppet... Everyone she has met along the way has been without exception."

Living the rest of their lives in a daze naturally meant they were beyond saving, people with worthless lives.

Chen Xuan understood. In short, men and even women would be seduced by Yan Yushu's beauty, lose their true nature, and become playthings under her feet, allowing her to manipulate their lives as she pleased.

No wonder when he met Yan Yushu just now, he felt something was strange... The other party was seducing him!

"If it were only this, it would be fine."

Monk Kong Wen paused, then spoke of the true terror of Six Desires Heaven:

"Yan Yushu will select some Qi Refiners from among them, and then devour their vital energy, magic tricks, and realms, turning everything into her own use."

Devouring others' cultivation?

Chen Xuan was startled upon hearing this. This 'cheat' was too overpowered, wasn't it?

Directly devouring cultivation and turning it into her own use, wouldn't that directly skip the cultivation process?

If Yan Yushu devoured a Daoist Immortal, would she directly become an immortal? That's too absurd!

He found it unbelievable. Compared to this, what was Wang Chan's Yellow Millet Dream but a simple, corner-dwelling thing? What was having a lifetime of memories? Didn't he still have to risk his life to seize opportunities and then cultivate slowly? This person could just go seduce a great Qi Refiner, then devour them, and have everything!

Monk Kong Wen's expression was solemn, his golden-white lips opening and closing as he continued.

"Last night, an ascetic monk from our Hanging Temple who had undergone secondary Ascension caught up to her nearby, and was subsequently devoured. In a single night, that monk's cultivation, accumulated over years of arduous practice, all became hers!"

Chen Xuan gasped upon hearing this. Last night, he had seen similar records on Mystic Cat Goddess's jade token, but he hadn't expected the hidden truth to be so astonishing.

One must know that he had gone through immense hardship, spending over half a month, just to complete the first Ascension.

He didn't know when this secondary Ascension could be undertaken, how long it would take, and how many heavenly treasures it would consume. It would definitely be a massive number.

But this Yan Yushu obtained secondary Ascension cultivation out of thin air in one night? This was simply beyond common sense, horrifying to hear.

Chen Xuan asked curiously, "Can this Yan Yushu keep devouring indefinitely? Are there no restrictions?"

This ability of Six Desires Heaven was too outrageous. He believed there must be restrictions, and perhaps even severe ones.

Monk Kong Wen explained everything he knew: "Firstly, she cultivates by devouring people. How could our Hanging Temple be easy to provoke? We naturally won't let her go. Secondly, once she cultivates by devouring people, she will suffer severe side effects. She just devoured someone's cultivation last night, so she will definitely suffer backlash today."

So that's how it is.

Chen Xuan understood. Yan Yushu would suffer great side effects every time she devoured someone's cultivation: "There are pros and cons. This is barely acceptable."

Chen Xuan then scrutinized Monk Kong Wen for a few moments, choosing his words carefully.

"Forgive my bluntness, but with your strength, even if you find Yan Yushu, I'm afraid it will be useless, right?"

This Monk Kong Wen was only at the secondary Ascension realm. Wasn't this like a sheep entering a tiger's den, throwing himself into a trap?

Monk Kong Wen shook his head and said, "It's not just the two of us. As long as I can maintain my true nature and hold her back for a moment, sending out a signal, she will have nowhere to escape..."

The Hanging Temple had mobilized a large number of people, forming a net. As long as Yan Yushu's whereabouts were discovered, they would quickly surround her.

In the distance, the severely injured young monk, wriggling, knelt up from the ground and murmured.

"Senior Brother Kong Wen, I, I understand. I will immediately leave the Southern Wilderness, stay away from Yan Yushu, and will definitely not ruin your important matter."

With his immature temperament and youthful vigor, he would likely develop evil thoughts as soon as he saw Yan Yushu, immediately willing to kneel at her feet and desperately protect her.

The monk Kong Wen didn't reply, but he also didn't stop the young monk from leaving.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan also prepared to leave. After learning this shocking information, he was even less likely to reveal the route Yan Yushu took to leave... In fact, the mountain paths in the Southern Wilderness twisted and turned, and crossing one mountain path meant facing a fork in the road. Even if he pointed out the direction now, it wouldn't help the Hanging Temple.

Moreover, Yan Yushu was clearly a Heavenly Fate Immortal Seed with a promising future. Only someone who had lost their mind would offend her.

But the monk Kong Wen was unwilling to let Chen Xuan leave just like that.

Chen Xuan asked coldly, "Is the Master trying to force me?"

The monk Kong Wen shook his head and replied, "Not at all. It's just that you have already met Yan Yushu. If you leave alone, it might cause an accident... Please accompany my junior brother to the temporary station of the Hanging Temple outside the mountain. After Yan Yushu is captured, you will naturally be free to leave."

He was worried that Chen Xuan had already been influenced and would involuntarily help Yan Yushu escape in secret.

But the monk Kong Wen kept his posture very low and repeatedly emphasized that this was not malicious custody or imprisonment.

At the station outside the mountain, monks were brewing precious tea with Terrestrial Treasure Tree as the main ingredient. This would be given to those "worthless people" like them as compensation.

As long as they waited for one day, they would receive a day's supply of tea.

"There's such a good thing?"

Chen Xuan was surprised upon hearing this. Was the Hanging Temple being overly generous? They were taking out a treasure like the Terrestrial Treasure Tree, which ordinary Qi Refiners dreamed of?

From this, it could be seen that they were determined to obtain the Six Desires Heaven.

The monk Kong Wen smiled slightly, "It's a last resort. The Hanging Temple has brought out all the wealth they've accumulated over the years this time."

The Six Desires Heaven fled all the way to the Southern Wilderness, meeting countless people?

Ordinary mortals who were influenced were easy to deal with.

But Qi Refiners were much more troublesome. Some of them had considerable backgrounds, and the Hanging Temple couldn't possibly use harsh methods against all of them. It was too unrealistic to shout and kill every time they encountered one.

Chen Xuan blinked, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Does the temple have any eminent monks who recognize ancient seal script?"

The monk Kong Wen replied that there were monks at the station who specialized in studying these things. If Chen Xuan wanted to learn, they would definitely teach him everything they knew.

"Good."

Chen Xuan immediately agreed. He had left the Southern Wilderness Mountains precisely to learn ancient seal script. Now that this opportunity had presented itself, and there was even free Terrestrial Treasure Tree tea soup served, there was no reason for him to refuse.

Where else could he cultivate in seclusion?

So what if his innocence was slandered? The clear will clear themselves. They were giving too much.

He wished that Yan Yushu was a bit more cunning and would escape for a few more days, so he could stay at the Hanging Temple's station for a few more days.

But in fact.

Chen Xuan had a faint intuition that these ascetic monks would not be able to catch Yan Yushu and would ultimately return empty-handed.
