The Red Cloud Affair

Zhao Shanming was transformed into Accompanying Ghost, which could resist many Law Technique, but he was ultimately no match for Chen Wang.

Chen Wang's Qi and Blood surged like a rainbow, his eyes blazed like torches, and the Show Overlord Sword in his hand was incredibly sharp as he relentlessly attacked Zhao Shanming! At this moment, he did not unleash the Show Overlord Sword, but instead infused it with the power of his Qi and Blood, making it extremely hot and emitting a faint red light! This kind of Qi and Blood and qi has a great restraining effect on evil spirits and ghosts, even Accompanying Ghost.

Zhao Shanming let out a series of shrill screams, then fled into the mountains, turning into a wisp of green smoke at an extremely fast speed!

Zhao Shanming wanted to lure Chen Wang to the location of the Tiger Demon.

He had tricked Chen Wang into going with him to steal the spirit medicine with this very idea in mind.

The Tiger Demon refined cultivators into Accompanying Ghost to deceive people, luring them into caves to devour them; he did this kind of thing many times.

Zhao Shanming is a disciple of the Spirit Medicine Valley, and his cultivation level is quite impressive, reaching the Late-Stage Qi Refining.

If this Tiger Demon could kill him and refine him into Accompanying Ghost, it might be at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

If he really lured him there, there would be real danger! But how could he outrun Chen Wang? Chen Wang transformed into lightning and used the power of the Thunder God to strike him directly!

With a snap! It hit the wisp of green smoke squarely!

Zhao Shanming's figure appeared, letting out a miserable scream! Thunder and lightning are the ultimate yang power, the most effective against ghosts like them.

However, at this moment, Zhao Shanming's body became ethereal. After all, the Accompanying Ghost was different from ordinary wandering ghosts and Wrathful Ghost. He once again turned into green smoke and left!

Snap! Snap! His figure appeared several times in succession, each time being struck on the head by Chen Wang's sword, his head flying high into the air! Zhao Shanming screamed in agony as his headless body rose into the air to clutch his severed head!

He clutched the head in his hand, but the scorching Qi and Blood of the Show Overlord Sword was like boiling oil poured onto ice water; even after reattaching his head, the pain made him scream! He immediately fled into the mountains to avoid having his limbs severed by Chen Wang and then painfully piecing them back together.

Finally, he was free from this torment.

The bell in Chen Wang's hand had the power to summon souls. With each step and control, Zhao Shanming was finally beaten to the point of having his soul scattered!

After death, a person becomes Accompanying Ghost, unable to escape its clutches; it is better to simply vanish into nothingness.

Otherwise, a dignified cultivator would die for a demon, losing his true self and revealing his ugly side.

After killing him, Chen Wang looked up and realized he was already far into the mountains. He squinted.

"We should be careful as there are many dangerous Demon Beast in these mountains."

Chen Wang discerned the direction and intended to head towards the Market, but after thinking it over, he turned around and went to the Slum Area instead.

When I arrived at the Slum Area, I found many dilapidated houses and a messy, untouched area.

Some houses were vacated and new ones were built. Although cultivators lived in dilapidated houses, the places they lived in were rich in Spiritual Qi. Moreover, they could exchange cultivation items with each other.

They don't place much importance on material enjoyment, and their houses are generally built in a simple style, mostly wooden or Thatched Hut.

Now some new houses have been built again.

When Chen Wang arrived at his house, he found it had been smashed to pieces and turned into ruins, with no one caring about it.

That day, he saw two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators fighting nearby, so he immediately decided to make a strategic retreat. Therefore, he did not know what exactly happened that day or how many people fought.

Chen Wang stood in front of his house in the Slum Area for a while when someone suddenly called his name.

"Chen Wang!"

Someone shouted uncertainly.

Chen Wang turned his head and saw a man in his thirties wearing a blue long robe, who looked somewhat refined.

"Fellow Daoist Qin," Chen Wang said, cupping his hands in greeting.

This man was a neighbor in the Slum Area, Qin Yong, who was an Alchemist. He would usually refine some pills and exchange them at the Market. The two didn't have much of a relationship, but he was gentle and kind and got along well with the people around him.

Qin Yong pulled him aside and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, I thought you were dead. Your house was smashed up."

Chen Wang's lips twitched slightly as he said, "That day was too chaotic, so I took advantage of the chaos to escape and hid for a while before just returning."

There are also mortal dynasties outside the Cultivation World, but no one wants to stay there and would rather live a hard life here.

Immortal cultivators have long lifespans, which are incomparable to those of ordinary kings and nobles.

Qin Yong sighed, "You reacted really quickly. Luckily you managed to escape. You were practically blinded by rage that day!"

He sighed with emotion.

Chen Wang's house was now in ruins, so Qin Yong invited Chen Wang Chen Wang to sit in his home and poured him some tea.

The tea in the Cultivation World contains a faint Spiritual Qi and tastes excellent.

Of course, this wasn't some high-grade spiritual tea, but Chen Wang, having spent some time in the Winter, could clearly taste the Spiritual Qi within it, which made him somewhat impressed.

I couldn't help but smack my lips.

Qin Yong watched this and couldn't help but think, "I wonder where this Fellow Daoist Chen has gone to, to drink this wild mountain tea with such relish."

Chen Wang asked, "Fellow Daoist Qin, I wonder what exactly happened that day, and also, what is the current situation of the Red Cloud Sect?"

He wanted to learn some of the latest information about the Red Cloud Sect from Qin Yong.

Qin Yong he recalled the bloody events of that day, "That day, the Seven Stars Sect, the Five Poisons Sect, and many other Aristocratic Clan besieged the Red Cloud Sect. It was a complete mess, and some people even had evil intentions and went out to kill their way out."

"Nobody cares about rogue cultivators like us at the bottom. It's funny, most of the rogue cultivators who died that day were killed by their own people."

Although he was smiling, there was a complex emotion in his eyes.

Chen Wang understood what he meant: taking advantage of the chaos to kill and plunder; in such a disorderly situation, many people would transform into bandits.

This is a very common occurrence.

Qin Yong appeared somewhat refined. He took a small sip of tea and then said:

"Red Cloud Old Ancestor's cultivation has run into problems, which none of us knew before. He married several concubines in order to absorb the Pure Yin energy of women to solve the problems in his cultivation."

"At the time, I thought this Old Ancestor wanted to try to sow seeds and have offspring, but now it seems that he was sowing the seeds for turmoil back then."

"A Golden Core expert also made a move that day, but we don't know his or her identity."

"Red Cloud Old Ancestor is truly formidable. That day, when half the sky was ablaze, I witnessed the battle right here. The scene was absolutely astonishing!"

"I thought the other party was fearless and the Red Cloud Sect was in imminent danger, but that Red Cloud Old Ancestor was extremely brave and actually defeated that mysterious Golden Core expert."

"Moreover, the Red Cloud Sect had already invited some helpers who were silently lurking in the mountains."

"Many experts from other sects intervened, and after a chaotic battle, they severely damaged the enemy and preserved the foundation of the Red Cloud Sect."

Qin Yong one breath and drank the tea in his hand in one gulp.

Recalling how much Chen Wang had enjoyed drinking it just now, he thought to himself, "Could it be that my tea-brewing skills have improved again?"

He smacked his lips and found that the wild mountain tea still lacked any Spiritual Qi.
