He Was No Longer Clean!

Ning Qi continued reading.

One after another, the Twisted Monsters were slain by the divine light, turning into black rain that dripped into the void.

But the horde of Twisted Monsters that followed showed no fear whatsoever and continued to attack the Mountain Ancestor.

Gradually, more and more Twisted Monsters were destroyed, and more and more black raindrops floated in the void.

The Mountain Ancestor was already a true immortal, and the immortal light emanating from his body resembled a full moon, its radiance illuminating this Boundary Sea.

His body was like a vacuum, isolating him from the energy of the Boundary Sea and also from the immortals and mortals.

However, the army of Twisted Monsters that Ning Qi had summoned, upon seeing the Mountain Ancestor, acted as if they were demons seeing Tang Sanzang, insisting on taking a bite.

They desperately crossed the boundary Boundary Sea, one after another, forming a mountain-like mass, fiercely and relentlessly attacking the Mountain Ancestor.

Even though all of their companions who went forward were killed by the Mountain Ancestor and turned into black raindrops suspended within the celestial light, the Twisted Monsters behind them continued unabated.

"Die, all of you!" the Mountain Ancestor roared.

Suddenly, a burst of dazzling silver light erupted from his body, wisps of light like bristling porcupine quills, piercing forward.

Instantly, hordes of Twisted Monsters were pierced by the divine light and turned into drops of black water.

This time, the Mountain Ancestor inflicted heavy casualties, instantly creating a large hole in front of them, so that the Twisted Monsters army behind them had not yet been able to fill it.

The Mountain Ancestor blinked, his gaze suddenly falling on the black raindrops suspended within the celestial light.

"These monsters are born from the most malevolent energy of the Boundary Sea. I have only recently ascended to the Immortal Realm, and my Immortal Power can only destroy their physical forms, not their energy in one fell swoop..."

"To destroy it, I'll have to refine it separately!"

His brows were deeply furrowed, and one could still vaguely see signs of disgust and revulsion.

The next second, the Mountain Ancestor actually condensed those suspended black raindrops together, giving rise to a silvery-white immortal fire that burned them.

However, those Twisted Monsters from the turbulent currents of the Boundary Sea have already attacked.

Furthermore, they abandoned their solitary combat methods and began to coalesce together, transforming into even larger and more powerful Twisted Monsters.

In the distance, Ning Qi, hidden within the energy of the Boundary Sea, continued to observe the battle between the Mountain Ancestor and the Twisted Monsters.

"These monsters have indeed played a role beyond my expectations, but it's absolutely impossible to defeat the Mountain Ancestor with just them."

Ning Qi suddenly raised his fingertip and pointed it at the Mountain Ancestor.

"The Holy Ancestor said that Boundless Evil Qi can be used against the Mountain Ancestor, so let me give it a try."

With a thought, Ning Qi quietly released a wisp of sealed, Boundless Evil Qi from his fingertips.

As soon as the Evil Qi left his body and entered the Boundary Sea, it immediately became several times more active, as if the Boundary Sea was the most suitable place for it, and it almost broke free from Ning Qi's control.

Fortunately, every time Ning Qi used this Evil Qi, he would secretly use the power of the golden key to suppress it, and it would still obey his control.

Whoosh!

The Boundless Evil Qi was formless and intangible. Ning Qi magnified it from a wisp until it was almost imperceptible, and shot it from behind the Mountain Ancestor.

It was the most terrifying energy Ning Qi had ever encountered, even though each strand possessed its own consciousness and was incredibly cunning.

Ning Qi had sensed its cunning when he subdued it before.

Now, as it attacks the Mountain Ancestor, it automatically reveals its cunning side.

Aside from continuing to target the Mountain Ancestor as Ning Qi instructed, it stopped immediately just as it was about to approach the spontaneously radiating immortal light emanating from the Mountain Ancestor's body.

Apart from Ning Qi, it seemed that no one present could detect the presence of the Evil Qi.

The amplified Evil Qi drifted through the energy of the Boundary Sea, and like the Twisted Monsters, it was extremely excited about the mountain ancestor who had become an immortal.

Ning Qi could even indirectly sense its joy, which made him feel uneasy.

In the next instant, the Evil Qi began to separate into several energy points, attempting to contact the celestial light emanating from the Mountain Ancestor.

Unlike the Twisted Monsters, the Mountain Ancestor could sense them instantly and found them particularly repulsive and disgusting.

Strangely, the Mountain Ancestor did not sense the touch of the Evil Qi.

Seeing this, Ning Qi became curious.

Logically speaking, since Ning Qi used this Evil Qi to eliminate many Twisted Monsters and absorb their energy, it should have been easier for the Mountain Ancestor to detect it.

How come the Mountain Ancestor couldn't sense it at all?

Of course, since the Mountain Ancestor cannot perceive it, it is naturally more advantageous for Ning Qi.

Ning Qi continued to sense the movement of the Evil Qi.

After being tested, the Evil Qi gradually became bolder, quietly moving forward and beginning to enter the celestial light as a whole.

It moved forward inch by inch, until finally the entire wisp merged into the celestial light.

The silvery light shone, yet its form remained unseen; the Mountain Ancestor still could not detect its existence.

Ning Qi couldn't help but sigh, this Evil Qi was becoming increasingly bizarre.

When it was still inside the Sword Ancestor's body, this Evil Qi was far less powerful than it is now.

The Sword Ancestor was like a vessel for cultivating Evil Qi, nurturing it within his body for ten thousand years. Then, as his cultivation level rose and he underwent tribulation, the Evil Qi was completely extracted by Ning Qi, which is why it has become the powerful and versatile entity it is today.

The Evil Qi silently coexisted with the immortal light emanating from the mountain ancestor. If Ning Qi hadn't maintained a constant connection with it, Ning Qi wouldn't have been able to sense its presence.

The Mountain Ancestor remained at the forefront, slaying the Twisted Monsters.

The Evil Qi seemed to have completely transformed into the power of the Mountain Ancestor, resonating and shining with the celestial light.

Ning Qi could clearly feel its power slowly increasing.

"Is it quietly devouring the Mountain Ancestor's Immortal Power?"

Ning Qi was startled.

Ning Qi frowned, Ning Qi not to urge it to attack the Mountain Ancestor for the time being. He wanted to see where the power and limits of the Evil Qi lay, and when the Mountain Ancestor would discover them.

Ning Qi couldn't help but turn his gaze to the turbulent Boundary Sea in front of the Mountain Ancestor.

The Twisted Monsters that had crossed the sea have become somewhat sparse.

In a short time, the Mountain Ancestor killed at least a thousand Twisted Monsters.

Every time a monster dies, it sheds black liquid, which the Mountain Ancestor throws into the Immortal Radiance Fire to burn it to ashes.

Later, as the Twisted Monsters coalesced into even stronger and larger monsters, the divine light previously released by the Mountain Ancestor became ineffective against them.

Ning Qi saw a massive, Twisted Monsters, as large as a mountain, charging towards the Mountain Ancestor.

The Mountain Ancestor continued to pierce his opponent with the immortal light containing all the laws of the Dao.

However, it's unclear whether the Twisted Monsters became stronger after coalescing, or whether they were simply more adapted to the divine light.

A silvery-white celestial light struck it, and the enormous, Twisted Monsters let out a deafening roar, its countless eyes practically overflowing with blood-red light.

Faintly, a dark red energy emanated from the enormous, Twisted Monsters, resisting the divine light.

Whether it was Shanzu or Ning Qi, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that at most, only the outer layer of its skin had been scratched.

Aside from making the Twisted Monsters appear even more terrifying, it was impossible to kill it anymore!

Upon seeing this, the mountain ancestor was immediately taken aback.

"As expected of an existence the Immortal Alliance vowed to exterminate!"

The Mountain Ancestor took a step back, and the immortal light surrounding him seemed to become even brighter.

"The Immortal-Slaying Sword!"

The Mountain Ancestor let out a clear whistle.

The mountain-shaped Law Seals on his forehead shimmered with light, and a crystal-clear magic sword flew out from his forehead, incredibly heavy.

The immortal sword hovered in front of the mountain ancestor, its surface seemingly engraved with endless lightning patterns.

"Go!"

The Mountain Ancestor formed Sword Art with his hands, wielding a celestial sword, Twisted Monsters with a single finger.

In an instant, the Demon-Slaying Immortal Sword erupted with a thunderous roar, slashing towards the enormous, Twisted Monsters in front of it.

Click!

Roar!

The former is the sound of a sword cutting through something, the latter is the roar of Twisted Monsters.

The Twisted Monsters's bloodshot eyes condensed into a crimson beam of light that shot towards the incoming Demon-Slaying Immortal Sword. At the same time, its numerous severed limbs swung out in unison, also attacking the immortal sword.

The next second, the dazzling silver lightning collided with the blood-red light, flashing by in an instant.

The crimson light shattered, and many of the Twisted Monsters's limbs were severed.

Even more terrifying, a crack slashed diagonally across the Twisted Monsters's massive body, then sliced it open completely, as if cutting through butter with a knife!

The enormous, Twisted Monsters couldn't even block the Mountain Ancestor's sword strike.

The mountain ancestor's lips curled slightly, but in an instant his expression changed, and he quickly took a step back.

The Twisted Monsters ahead resembled a grotesque balloon filled with water, from which countless streams of black liquid shot toward the Mountain Ancestor.

The Mountain Ancestor released another beam of light from its forehead, which transformed into a mountain-shaped protective shield, protecting it within.

Snap!

The black water surged forth, but ultimately failed to reach the Mountain Ancestor's pure and flawless immortal body, as it was blocked one by one by the mountain-shaped protective barrier.

But a strong feeling of nausea washed over him, and Shanzu couldn't help but vomit again.

"Hateful!"

With a wave of his hand, the Mountain Ancestor gathered the black water with Immortal Power and threw it into the Dao Fire he had previously condensed.

The celestial fire burned the sky, continuing to scorch the black liquid.

The previous fire had not yet been completely burned off, and now even more has been added, making it inexhaustible.

Ning Qi sensed the immortal fire of the Mountain Ancestor, whose energy was extremely powerful, and Ning Qi himself felt inferior to it.

However, the remaining black water from the Twisted Monsters could fight against it. Although it was still no match for the monster, it could still deplete a lot of the mountain ancestor's power.

The mountain ancestor didn't even have time to breathe a sigh of relief.

Because, in the turbulent currents of the Boundary Sea, an even larger, Twisted Monsters was rushing towards him.

Of course, this is also the last one.

Of the Twisted Monsters army that Ning Qi had summoned, only this one remained.

"These guys are incredibly troublesome. When they're alive, they're determined to kill me; when they're dead, they turn into black water that can taint my immortal body. Are they trying to turn me into Twisted Monsters too?"

The Mountain Ancestor covered his mouth with his hand and said.

He continued to manipulate the Demon-Slaying Immortal Sword with his divine sense, slashing at another Twisted Monsters.

At the same time, the Mountain Ancestor continued to speak:

"Ning Qi, I know you brought these guys here, but you'll definitely regret this decision!"

The Mountain Ancestor seemed certain that Ning Qi had brought the Twisted Monsters there, and guessed that Ning Qi was hiding nearby.

"Do you think this Immortal Venerable is afraid of them? Ha! Even if I despise these things, I can leave at any time. But you and your world, as long as you cannot escape this Boundary Sea, will be found by them sooner or later. They will completely devour your world and transform all the living beings within it into a part of them!"

The Mountain Ancestor made two sounds in succession, seemingly hoping that Ning Qi would respond or that it could cause a fluctuation in energy somewhere, allowing him to find Ning Qi's location.

He was tired of fighting the Twisted Monsters; the only solution was to get rid of Ning Qi, the instigator!

However, the Mountain Ancestor carefully sensed the surrounding Boundary Sea but found nothing unusual.

Shan Zu frowned, looking slightly disappointed.

He could clearly catch Ning Qi's clone before, so why is this kid completely lifeless now?

It must be said that even after being so provoked by his words, Ning Qi was still able to remain calm, and the Mountain Ancestor had to admire Ning Qi's cunning.

He was filled with regret, wishing he had killed Ning Qi from the very beginning, then there wouldn't have been so much trouble!

The Mountain Ancestor regretted his previous choices time and time again. He thought that as long as he became an immortal, he could easily solve everything, but he was clearly wrong again.

Ning Qi actually attracted Twisted Monsters that even immortals loathe.

Of course, these guys were actually brought here by the Holy Ancestor, but Ning Qi led the way, so it can't be said that Ning Qi actively sought them out.

Ning Qi remained silent, continuing to lurk within the Boundary Sea.

Even without the Twisted Monsters, Ning Qi couldn't guarantee he wouldn't be discovered by the Mountain Ancestor.

However, Shan Zu's words still caused him some unease.

He knew too little about the Twisted Monsters. If what the Mountain Ancestor said was true, he would have to face the Twisted Monsters ' revenge in the future.

The Mountain Ancestor said he needed to escape this Boundary Sea with the True Martial Spirit World, but how large is this Boundary Sea?

Ning Qi still doesn't know what the entire Boundary Sea is like, or even how large the Boundary Sea they're in actually is.

These distracting thoughts flashed through Ning Qi's mind, but he quickly suppressed them.

He won't fall for the trap; dealing with the Mountain Ancestor is the top priority right now!

Ning Qi continued to look at the Mountain Ancestor.

By this point, the Evil Qi it released had already devoured a significant portion of the Mountain Ancestor's power.

It's like a leech. A leech can suck the blood of an animal without the animal feeling anything, while Evil Qi can suck the power of a cultivator without even the Mountain Ancestor, an immortal, feeling anything.

As its name suggests, the Boundless Evil Qi can be amplified to the limitless, but Ning Qi couldn't wait any longer.

Because he vaguely sensed that if he allowed the Evil Qi to continue to devour him, he probably wouldn't be able to suppress Evil Qi anymore.

so...

"Make your move! If you don't, I'll take you back and never let you out again, forever sealing you within the Evil-Sealing Bottle!"

Ning Qi's thoughts were transmitted to the Evil Qi he released.

The Evil Qi seemed to convey a sense of extreme dissatisfaction, but ultimately had no choice but to do as Ning Qi said.

Ning Qi immediately sensed that the Evil Qi was beginning to stir.

It stopped absorbing the immortal light from the Mountain Ancestor and instead quietly moved towards the ball of scorching black water immortal fire released by the Mountain Ancestor.

The next second, the Evil Qi merged into the Mountain Ancestor's immortal fire.

The celestial fire was actually controlled by it, enveloping the black water, which continued to sizzle and emit black smoke.

Ning Qi involuntarily held his breath.

He had a vague idea of what the Evil Qi was about to do.

Sure enough, suddenly, the Evil Qi controlled the celestial fire to disperse, and controlled the scorching black water within it to spray towards the Mountain Ancestor who was fighting the last Twisted Monsters!

Whoosh!

The black water boiled, bubbling violently, and suddenly poured onto the Mountain Ancestor's flawless, full-moon-like immortal body.

In an instant, the Boundary Sea seemed to darken.

The full moon's celestial radiance seemed to shrink and be shrouded in dust, enveloped by dark clouds.

The energy of the Boundary Sea also eroded the nearby area along with the fluctuations.

The Mountain Ancestor was greatly alarmed!

He never expected that his own immortal fire would be beyond his control, drenching his immortal body with all the black liquid left by the scorching, Twisted Monsters.

A painful scream pierced through the Boundary Sea, releasing terrifying sound waves that pushed the Boundary Sea energy that had just approached even further away.

Shanzu felt he had suffered the greatest insult of his life; he was no longer clean!
