Do they all have to die?

Chen Changming's heart skipped a beat. He could also detect a hint of danger in the voice of the Holy Mother Wusheng, but if he were to help Holy Mother Wusheng, he was even more worried that she would seek Holy Mother Wusheng later.

Therefore, he is now in a dilemma, a dead end. Not helping means certain death, and helping also means certain death.

A rich Spiritual Qi wafted over.

Chen Changming's spirits lifted, and suddenly an idea came to him.

"Let me think about it..."

He feigned surprise, looked at the Spirit Vein, and flew down, muttering to himself, "So there's Spirit Vein here! The Spiritual Qi is so rich!"

Thump!

He plunged into the thick, water-like Spirit Vein, breathing heavily, a look of utter ecstasy on his face.

"What... what time is it now, and you're still... thinking about the Spirit Vein?!"

The Holy Mother Wusheng, exasperated and furious, scolded him.

Chen Changming flew out.

"Tell me, what should I do to control the Ancient Demon?"

He flew above the Ancient Demon's head and said in a deep voice.

While battling the remnants of the Ancient Demon's consciousness, the Holy Mother Wusheng spoke rapidly, "You are Body Cultivator. If I'm not mistaken, you should be at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, right?"

"Hmm, more or less."

Chen Changming did not deny it.

The Holy Mother Wusheng said, "You are very strong. You should be able to pierce the Ancient Demon's head with the Geng-Gold Sword. I will tell you nine acupoints; just insert them as instructed."

"Okay." Chen Changming nodded.

The first acupoint is Baihui Acupoint).

Holding the Geng-Gold Sword, Chen Changming flew to the very top of the Ancient Demon's head and thrust it forward with half his strength.

He was just testing the waters.

Puff!

The Geng-Gold Sword pierced through the flesh with a resounding clang.

However, they could not proceed when they encountered the bones of the Ancient Demon.

Chen Changming exerted all his strength this time, and the Geng-Gold Sword pierced into his skull.

The Geng-Gold Sword was completely pierced, with only the hilt remaining outside.

"Good, you really didn't disappoint me."

The Holy Mother Wusheng was overjoyed and continued, "The second acupoint is Naohu Acupoint, the third is Yuzhen Acupoint, the fourth is Yintang Acupoint, and the fifth is Yangbai Acupoint..."

Seeing that the Holy Mother Wusheng had named four acupoints in one breath, Chen Changming sneered inwardly.

This cunning and Holy Mother Wusheng claims to have nine acupoints, but in reality, she probably won't even use half of them.

He can only puncture a maximum of three acupoints.

All it takes is a little control over the Ancient Demon.

Chen Changming drew his sword repeatedly, piercing the Naohu Acupoint and Yuzhen Acupoint respectively. Then he pulled out his sword and flew up suddenly above the Demonic Qi Well.

"Don't go, it's not over yet..."

"Come again later."

Chen Changming left a message, flew outside, and fled the place with his Senior Sister without saying another word.

He had his Senior Sister carry him on her sword, and they fled all the way to the edge of the Demonic Qi zone.

"Junior brother, what happened inside?"

Luo Lan, still shaken, said...

A smile appeared on Chen Changming's face, "Senior sister, perhaps we can escape."

Escape?

Luo Lan was stunned, and then she heard a deafening sound. The ground shook as if a major earthquake had occurred, and many parts of Mysterious Yin Mountain collapsed.

A golden light shot out from between Chen Changming's eyebrows, heading towards the original location of the formation within the Demonic Qi.

The golden light shone in and was not bounced back.

"Senior Sister, the great formation has been broken!"

Chen Changming said with delight.

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and quickly added, "Senior Sister, wait for me outside. I'll go check on the Demonic Qi Well and come right back."

"Good."

Luo Lan decisively flew away.

Chen Changming rushed back to the location of the Demonic Qi Well, only to find that the place had been reduced to ruins.

The Demonic Qi Well has been buried by sand and soil.

A faint purple light flew over; it was the Spirit-Devouring Insect.

"Well done. Is the Ancient Demon's corpse still there?"

Chen Changming asked.

"His upper body was blown away, leaving only his lower body."

The Spirit-Devouring Insect spoke through telepathy.

"Okay, lead the way."

Chen Changming took a deep breath, his hands turned purple, and he began to dig.

The sand and soil had just been covered, so it was relatively loose. With his iron hands and terrifying strength, he dug very quickly, reaching a depth of more than a meter in just a few breaths.

It took Chen Changming half an hour to dig from the ground all the way to the location of the Ancient Demon, several hundred meters in total.

Upon seeing the Ancient Demon's body, he waved his hand and put it into his Beast Taming Bracelet.

Since the Demon Spirit Vine is so fond of the Ancient Demon's body, he will not let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by! If the Demon Spirit Vine evolves, it will be a great help to him!

He had secretly released the Spirit-Devouring Insect when he entered the Spirit Vein.

After he and his Senior Sister left, the Spirit-Devouring Insect detonated the Spirit Vein. The explosive force of the Spirit Vein was astonishing, actually blowing away half of the Ancient Demon's upper body. This showed that the Primordial Spirit of the Holy Mother Wusheng, who was hiding in the Ancient Demon's head, was also killed by the explosion.

Return through the tunnel.

Chen Changming then used a large amount of soil to reseal the tunnel, made some arrangements outside the Demonic Qi Well, and then quietly left.

He was being so careful because he was worried that after the death of a Golden Core in the Great Qin, they would definitely send people to investigate, and he couldn't leave any clues that would give others a chance to find him.

After sneaking out of the Demonic Qi, Chen Changming didn't rush to go out.

He first sent the Spirit-Devouring Insect out to scout the area. When he saw that there was no one around except for his Senior Sister, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that after the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Demon-Slaying Alliance were trapped by the formation, the Qi Refining cultivators all fled like frightened birds..."

Chen Changming thought to himself.

"Senior Sister, the entire cultivation Immortal Realm of the Chu Kingdom has been ravaged by the Black Lotus Sect, and a Golden Core cultivator has been lost. I'm afraid the cultivation Immortal Realm of Great Qin will send people over soon. I have some secrets that cannot be discovered, so let's part ways now!"

Flying to Luo Lan's side, Chen Changming's expression turned serious.

Half of the Ancient Demon's body would probably be considered an extraordinary treasure by some, and would certainly make others envious.

He and his Senior Sister were too conspicuous.

They must be separated.

He could easily conceal his cultivation level and change his appearance, making it easy for him to evade investigation by the Great Qin Dynasty.

"Alright, junior brother, be careful."

Luo Lan said in a deep voice.

She vaguely guessed that the explosion was related to her junior brother, and since he had returned again, it must be related to the Ancient Demon.

"Senior Sister, do you remember Li Xiushan's hometown? It's Li Family Village in Lingshui Mountain, Zhao State. If any of us arrive here first, we should make a mark on the big tree at the village entrance."

Chen Changming said solemnly.

After saying that, he drew a circle on the ground with a dot in the center, and explained, "Whoever gets there first will draw this mark."

"Okay." Luo Lan's expression was solemn.

Chen Changming continued, "Senior Sister, let's meet at the market stalls on the first day of each month in the city near Li Family Village."

Seeing her junior brother's caution, Luo Lan nodded. She gave him a deep look, then turned and flew away on her sword.

She knew that the sooner she separated from her junior brother, the sooner she could give him a sense of security.
