Chixinzi Wearing a green robe, he strode out of the scorching mist, gently stroking his beard and letting out a long laugh.

"Congratulations, junior brother, you are really surprising. Chongyang Palace's <Three Yang Calamity> and other Daoist dharma have been cracked by you. However, Chongyang Palace is one of the three holy places of Daoism in the world. If any outsider can understand <Three Yang Calamity>, if it is exposed, it will cause an uproar."

"Uproar?"

He Ping chuckled.

"Brother Chixinzi, you think too much. Dead people in this world will not reveal secrets."

"It seems that junior brother, you really have murderous intentions."

Chixinzi smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly.

"If I had known this, I should have taken action in advance."

"As the saying goes, 'The sun and the moon pass away, and the years are not with me.' The most important thing in the world should be feared is the opportunity, and the opportunity is fleeting if it is just one cent or less..."

He Ping smiled faintly.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Senior brother, Immortal Puppet Sect has always been destined to be like this. You have made enough calculations. We should also settle the accounts between us, right?"

"Well said."

Chixinzi The shadow beneath his feet expanded, and countless pale arms extended out from the shadow, continuing to grow like living creatures. Hundreds of hands seemed to have turned into some kind of mutated creature, stretching out from the shadow.

There were traces of firelight flowing on the surface of He Ping. He moved his fingertips, and a blazing light and shadow like a fire dragon sprang up, burning toward Chixinzi.

The heat spread over, and the old man in green robes also felt his cheeks burning. He moved between his boots, and the pale arms growing out of the ground were densely covered and collided with the fire dragon. The flames wrapped around him, and those white hands exploded. "Puff", "Puff", they exploded into countless black mud. The fire also swayed for a while and was extinguished by a large amount of black mud.

The next second, the black mud that fell on the ground was sucked back by the shadow, and then dozens more arms grew out of the black shadow.

"... What is this?"

He Ping was also a little surprised. He glanced at it and saw that as densely packed pale arms emerged from the dark shadows on the ground, Chixinzi stood up in a green robe without wind, and a strange field spread all over his body, as if there was an invisible wind hovering outside.

"Senior brother, this is not Immortal Puppet Sect's technique..."

He could tell at a glance that these pale arms were clearly the product of "Severed Ghost Hand" combined with some kind of magic, which turned the puppet's prosthetic hand into a deformed structure that was half living thing and half puppet.

"This is using some Law Technique from <Seed Demon Technique> and some Outer Dao spells from miscellaneous families, trying to graft them onto our own puppetry. To be honest, this is a bit nondescript..."

He Ping's tone was obviously slightly sarcastic.

"Although this method is a bit complicated, it is also a special technique that I have refined after summarizing what I have learned over the years. Junior brother, please don't underestimate it!"

Chixinzi didn't care either, instead he laughed.

"Junior brother, if my guess is correct, the Three Yang Calamity power you stole from that 'Cinnabar Essence Fire Talisman' is not perfect. If not, you wouldn't be here talking nonsense to me for so long to delay time... As everyone knows, <Three Yang Calamity> In addition to the natural Daoism, only those who devoutly believe in Sacrificial Fire can practice it. I guess you took a tricky approach, otherwise why would you hide it and not take action until Narcissus Cave Abode is outside."

Hearing this, He Ping frowned, and he had to admit that Chixinzi's guess was not wrong.

<Three Yang Calamity> After all, it was the power he stole, not that he really mastered the righteous method of entering the Tao. If he continued to use this power for a long time, firstly, it would consume a lot of his own mind, and secondly, it would also put a load on the heart of Undead Abomination.

After he had just used it once, it had to be shut down, just like an overheated engine that needed to cool down. If not for this reason, who would be idle and chatting with this Chixinzi, it would be most convenient to kill him in one go.

'... If something changes later, I will increase my power to 'Azure Yang Undying Body' in one go, and be sure to kill Chixinzi in one blow!'

He Ping made up his mind secretly in his heart and replied casually, "Senior brother, I think you are thinking too much. I just think that with my current strength, I don't need to deal with you seriously, unless you have mastered Sanyuan Devil Palace's <Seed Demon Technique method>."

Having said this, his cold gaze also pierced through.

"By the way, where are the women Granny Miaohua brought and Cheng Zhi? Could it be that senior brother is planning to let those two go get <Seed Demon Technique>, and he is planning to stop me alone."

"Junior brother, I don't know something."

Chixinzi was not in a hurry to answer, but changed the subject.

"Sanyuan Devil Palace The upper, middle and lower meridians each master a righteous method of entering the Tao. The superior Purple Subtlety Lineage division <Mystic Form Method> is also called Nine Veins of the Emperor Form; Seed Demon Technique of Zhongyuan Clear Void Lineage also has an alias, called Nine Refinements of Nether Demons, and its method has two volumes, the upper and lower volumes."

"The second volume of <Seed Demon Technique> is Soul-Refining Demon Transformation, Legilimency's Theravada Secret Method, which is also the 'Resentful Demon' and 'Death Demon' that I passed on to you. ' two volumes... However, this Hinayana Secret Method is just a small path. For us monks, it is only of value for enlightenment and research, and Hinayana Secret Method cannot enter the path."

"The method of <Seed Demon Technique> also contains a volume of Higher Vehicle Secret Method. This Higher Vehicle Secret Method is the essence of <Seed Demon Technique> and the only way to achieve Daoism. My real goal, senior brother, is the first volume of <Seed Demon Technique>."

"Senior brother."

He Ping was startled.

"You are so eager for success and want to get the first volume of <Seed Demon Technique>. Could it be that something went wrong while practicing Cultivation Method of our sect, and that's why you embarked on this path... If not, who would have trained our sect's 'Severed Ghost Hand' to such a nondescript state!"

Chixinzi heard this and was silent for a while. Finally, he sighed and nodded.

"'Five Oaths of the Puppet Sect' is indeed terrible. If not for this, I would not suffer from the 'day and night regression'. My own body does not advance but retreats. This is why I have to find another way to enter the dharma. Otherwise, if I continue to regress, my cultivation will be wasted..."

As he spoke, the number of those pale arms continued to increase, twisting and extending like snakes, squirming and expanding in all directions. One after another, the pale palms opened, and each of the strange fingers was like a long dead branch.

"Junior brother, you said this is the fate of the Immortal Puppet Sect people, but in my opinion, this is not fate. This is nothing more than a poisonous plan set by Wu Yousheng and the ancestors of the Immortal Puppet Sect--"

Chixinzi's eyes seemed to have blazing flames burning in them.

"If this is really destiny, I will never believe it."

"It's the same thing whether you believe it or not!"

He Ping breathed out faintly, time had almost been won. A whole circle of flames burst out from his body, a green flame rose up in the darkness, and the heat wave of moxibustion shot out.

"Anyway, you will definitely die here today..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang... boom..."

A low explosion sounded, the aftershock of the fight, and dust and dust dispersed in the air.

There was another loud crash, and in the dust of the dust, the flames suddenly burst out, and two figures suddenly flashed past, flying away, the sleeves of their robes were turned up, either attacking or defending, and the appearance was unpredictable.

In the blink of an eye and in a very short period of less than a few seconds, the duel between the two came to an end without any suspense.

Canopy!

Several green flames fell to the ground, and the flames spread out like oil and water. A figure fell heavily to the ground with a "bang", and blood and sand and dust were splashed everywhere, which was extremely tragic.

"You... you won after all, junior brother!"

Chixinzi spat out a mouthful of blood, stared angrily, and took his last breath. The strong firelight scattered around him reflected his bruised and bruised face, which was still stained with blood. The old man's facial features were distorted, and his expression showed incomparable regret in the pain.

He Ping slowly walked over, the five fingers of his right hand were filled with flames, and he held a heart in his palm, which soon melted into a ball of rotten flesh.

He lowered his head and glanced at Chixinzi's body lying on the ground. Chixinzi was indeed dead. His chest and abdomen were covered in red stains, and there was a bloody hole in his chest.

"Something's wrong... this Chixinzi, it's as if he came here deliberately to die?!"

He Ping did not feel the pleasure of killing a powerful enemy. Instead, his face was filled with doubts and his eyebrows were furrowed.

It has to be said that Chixinzi died a little strangely. At this time, he had already noticed something fishy...

"What did I miss? Chixinzi's behavior is not so much seeking death as delaying time. What is he delaying, and what is it worth delaying?"

He quickly organized the information in his mind and recalled all the details before and after arriving at Narcissus Cave Abode.

"Cheng Zhi...Cheng Family Ranch...Cheng Tianyou, it seems that all the strange things are hidden in it..."

He Ping realized that he had grasped a key point among thousands of clues, but because he still lacked some key information, he could not sort out the mystery yet.

"It seems that the real reason lies in the Cheng Family's bloodline. Cheng Tianyou, Cheng Tianyou is very suspicious!"

He suddenly laughed.

"If this is the case, then I have brought the right thing!"

He Ping turned over and slapped his palm on the ground. The strong wind shook the ground. A red-painted coffin slowly rose up from the shadows. The coffin kept shaking, and the iron chains wrapped around it also trembled "clanging" and "clanging".

"...Cheng Yujiao, it's finally time to let you out."
