A Purple Mansion Lord arrives (two-in-one)

Eternal Tribulation Ascension Chapter 185

After leaving Great Night Lake, Li Fuchan flew Southern Lands. That was where the Azure Ram Temple of Hong Commandery was located, and he carried...

"Embrace-Lock Crouching Cicada," by concealing his vital energy, even while hastily traveling on the wind, he did not reveal any trace.

At this moment, however, he was repeatedly pondering the matter of the Yang Family. The strange behavior of those Yang Family members made him marvel at their Divine Ability powers.

The reason why cultivators who have restored their Life Force can easily entice those whose Life Force is incomplete is that they can use their own complete Life Force to fill the gap in the life of the cultivator whose Life Force is incomplete.

It's as if the other person is half of me, so I can influence and stir their emotions. However, if the two are far apart, or if the other person begins to replenish their own Life Force, this way of stirring their emotions will not work.

However, the Fate Divine Ability of the Purple Mansion Lord is not to stir emotions, but to control the mind, and even to influence Destiny.

He wants you to keep walking on the path he has paved.

Under the Divine Ability of the ruler, the people are herded like cattle and sheep; this is how it is done.

Those few members of the Yang Family, especially the one named Yang Xi Hong, Aperture Opening in Outer Scenery, were all here; it was truly terrifying.

Even though he possesses the "Embrace-Lock Crouching Cicada" Register Qi to protect him from the influence of Divine Ability powers, many times, when faced with Divine Ability and the power of the Purple Mansion, even if he is unaffected, he cannot act on his own and may even have to deliberately run into them.

Even with my cheat-like ability to Tribulation Divination Tribulation Qi Golden Finger, I'm still a hundred thousand miles away from achieving true Divine Ability —it's practically unattainable.

Li Fuchan sighed, "It's beyond human capability."

However, though he sighed, his expression grew increasingly resolute.

In this world, only the Purple Mansion can provide a place to reside; only by achieving the Purple Mansion can one do what one wants to do.

He didn't dwell on the matter further and continued to ponder the turmoil.

What is the true purpose behind this power struggle between the Pivot Court and the Azure Ram Temple?

He had spent a long time in the Northern Lands, experiencing the open and covert struggles among the Northern Wei Six Mountains, and also witnessing the tentacles extended by the Southern Yangtze Immortal Sect.

Ultimately, the overall situation in the Northern Lands always revolved around Four Aspects of Slaying Bandits and Five Thieves; it was a battle between individuals, and there were no large-scale casualties.

Although the Immortal Sect was also involved, it never personally participated.

Not to mention the Zhao Kingdom, which had remained indifferent to the matter since the beginning of the conflict in the Northern Lands.

But this time it's different.

Pivot Court and Azure Ram Temple are powerful clans, each using Great Night Lake as their Chessboard and the Yang Family as their Chess Piece, each making their own moves.

The root of all the disputes was, surprisingly, "Wandering Gold".

Why did the Purple Mansion of Azure Ram Temple suddenly purge the "Wandering Gold" cultivators under its jurisdiction?

Li Fuchan frowned deeply, completely baffled.

In his view, there was nothing wrong with the "Wandering Gold" method, at least it did not interfere with the Lesser Yin.

"Even if we were to do it, why go through the pressure from the Pivot Court and insist on attacking the Yang Family?"

From the perspective of benefits and gains, he really couldn't see what advantages this move would bring to Azure Ram Temple.

As a Lower Cultivator, he had no intelligence and no powerful backer. No matter how he tried to figure it out, it remained shrouded in mystery.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

This is the unavoidable consequence of Lower Cultivator.

He couldn't help but miss the perspective that the Three Nothing had given him during the Tribulation Divination.

Perhaps the perspective of the Three Nothing is far from comparable to that of the true Purple Mansion Lord in this era, but its starting point for viewing problems is always from the perspective of the Purple Mansion.

Li Fuchan's ability to navigate the chaotic and unpredictable situation in the Northern Lands was largely due to the borrowed perspective he gained from the upper echelons of society.

Now that we've arrived in South of the Yangtze, under this new situation, our previous resources seem somewhat inadequate.

"The path of 'Wandering Gold' is naturally as difficult as ascending to heaven for a Rogue Cultivator like myself. Just considering a single Spirit Object, I only know of 'The Whorl-Circuit Golden Essence the Universe,' and even that is extremely difficult to refine. But for the Immortal Sect Aristocratic Clan, especially the Yang Family who possess the 'Edge-Raising Pool,'..."

"Aside from the 'Gold-Gathering Current,' the Dao Fruit are almost within easy reach, but there's also a huge risk of failure. Although I've killed one, there may be many more hidden in the shadows."

"But that's enough. Azure Ram Temple Purple Mansion has made a move through my hands, and Pivot Court's counterattack shouldn't be too far off."

He didn't know if the Azure Ram Temple at the Purple Mansion would protect him. He was just a Rogue Cultivator, a nobody casually thrown out.

But he had no choice but to rush towards Azure Ram Temple with all his might. Survival was the priority, and everything else could wait.

As Li Fuchan was traveling swiftly on the wind, he suddenly saw a beam of Treasure Light shooting into the sky from the valley ahead.

As the light shimmered, it echoed the Lunar Soul within his Sea of Qi, clearly revealing the aura of Law Treasure from the Lesser Yin Lineage.

The Treasure Light shone brightly, as if telling passersby that a treasure had been created and that the virtuous should possess it.

Li Fuchan glanced at it, and a sense of horror welled up inside her:

The Purple Mansion of the Pivot Court is about to make its move.

The only saving grace now is that it seems Ping is being watched secretly by the Azure Ram Temple Purple Mansion Lord Temple, and both sides are falling...

It's a contest between children, not something that requires personal intervention.

"This is good news for me. As long as the Purple Mansion and the Inner Vision don't take action themselves, with my current abilities, I'll have almost no rivals in the Outer Scenery. If I can escape to Azure Ram Temple, judging from the attitude of the Azure Ram Temple Purple Mansion Lord Temple who ordered me to kill Yang Xi Yuan, he will definitely protect me."

Without hesitation, Li Fuchan changed direction, bypassing the valley where the Treasure Light soared into the sky, without wasting a moment.

Anyone who wants it can take it.

However, just as he escaped that place of Treasure Light and swept across a large lake, the lake surface suddenly exploded, and a black turtle burst out from underwater, rushing straight towards Li Fuchan.

The black turtle's carapace was dark blue with black hair, its patterns rough like rock. Its head and neck were covered with dark scales, and when it opened its wide mouth, it revealed two rows of sharp white teeth, and a foul stench wafted through the air.

It was extremely powerful, but its attacks lacked any real strategy; it simply relied on its physical strength.

Li Fuchan dodged it with a swift movement, not wanting to get entangled with it.

Unexpectedly, just as he dodged the black turtle, his magical Law Power suddenly sank, as if he had sunk into a swamp. The more he used his Law Power, the deeper he sank.

A chill ran through him. "It's 'Hai Water'."

"Hai Water" is a near-term name for water stored in a reservoir. In Ancient Era times, it was also called "Weak Water," which often manifests as large lakes and marshes, implying sinking or sinking.

It is the auxiliary water that is favored by Lesser Yin.

This mysterious and volatile Yang Aspect is truly extraordinary.

If the "Wu-Gui Di-Yin Spell Light" were mastered, it could kill this beast in an instant. But not now. It could only knock the Xuan Yuan down. It missed its target, spun around on the water, and roared as it charged again.

"Long Thunder Awakens the Cloud Voice."

Without further hesitation, Li Fuchan raised his hand and slashed down with his sword. The sword light was as fast as a startled swan, striking the thick back armor of the black turtle squarely.

The beast crashed back onto the lake amidst thunderous roars, splashing water several feet high, leaving a deep scorch mark on its carapace.

After Li Fuchan stopped, he frowned. Bearing Sword Qi with his human body was really too strenuous. He still needed to find a suitable Enchanted Sword as soon as possible.

He didn't look at the Xuanxun that had sunk to the bottom of the lake again, and turned around to continue his journey towards [Hong Commandery].

But they hadn't flown far when they saw an old man with white hair sitting on a broken bridge, clutching his legs and wailing, his cries heart-wrenching as if his legs were broken.

Li Fuchan's Illuminating Light swept over the old man, who made no attempt to conceal his aura—no, it should be said that he concealed it quite well, but unfortunately his...

Having experienced the devouring of Illuminating Light is no longer the same as before. The old man's tricks are not enough to deceive him.

The Outer Scenery is of minor quality, almost identical to his, and even better than the black turtle from before.

He frowned, but without stopping, he swept straight over the old man's head.

But a moment later, the broken bridge reappeared ahead, and the old man was still sitting at the bridgehead, hugging his knees and wailing, without moving an inch.

Li Fuchan stopped his escape, finally realizing that he couldn't escape like this.

All the obstacles encountered along the way were the work of that Purple Mansion from the Pivot Court.

Treasure Light lured him into a trap, Xuan Chuan slowed him down, and the old man set up an obstacle here.

He's stuck here. He either has to fight back, win, and leave, or he'll be stuck here forever, unable to move an inch.

"The Monster and cultivators created by that Purple Mansion Lord of Pivot Court are not of high cultivation level. It seems that the Purple Azure Ram Temple Purple Mansion Lord of Qingyang Temple is indeed protecting me. Now it depends on my own abilities."

Since we can't get around it, then we won't.

Li Fuchan was not one to hesitate. After confirming that the Purple Mansion Lord of Azure Ram Temple was protecting him, he instead adopted an arrogant attitude.

No one knew better than him how to take advantage of the Purple Mansion Lord's protection.

As he landed, the white-robed, white-haired old man pretended to be serious and said, "Young man, I unfortunately twisted my ankle while crossing the bridge, and my shoe fell off. Please have a kind heart and help this old man pick it up."

Upon hearing this, Li Fuchan chuckled and said, "Old man, you're really too careless. I see you've sprained your ankle. Is it serious?"

The old man wailed, "How can it not be serious? I feel like my bones are going to come out!"

"I am quite skilled in medicine and bone setting, sir. Do not worry, I will take a look at you."

As Li Fuchan spoke, he took a few steps and arrived in front of the old man.

The old man, still thinking his method of concealing his aura was superb, chuckled as he watched Li Fuchan examine his injuries.

However, the next moment, he suddenly felt his body lighten. Looking down, he found that Li Fuchan had lifted him up quite high without him noticing.

The old man intended to unleash his Law Power, but found Law Power blocked by some inexplicable force. His eyes widened in shock and anger as he snapped, "You young man, how utterly rude! What are you trying to do?"

Without a word, Li Fuchan used the Lesser Yin Spell Light in his hand to corrode the old man's body, and then threw him off the broken bridge.

Hearing the old man's wails, Li Fuchan remained unfazed, only asking suspiciously, "Why is it another Water Virtue cultivator?"

The Water Virtue in South of the Yangtze is perhaps a bit too strong.

On Great Night Lake, almost everyone is a cultivator of the Water Virtue path, including Wei Qingcheng, who was once Water Virtue cultivator. Wei Qingcheng was the peak master of Azure Fish Peak.

As the Lord's direct disciple, she cultivates the Water Virtue. From Glimpse a Spot, Know the Whole Leopard; it is likely that the cultivation of the Water Virtue is the most prevalent in the Pivot Court.

Now he is facing one danger after another, from Monster and cultivators, all of whom cultivate the Water Virtue.

He has now witnessed the "Ren Water," the "Weak Water," the "Valley Water," and the "Shi Water," which is about to Southern Return.

O

The entire South of the Yangtze has almost turned into a pond.

Li Fuchan was only puzzled and didn't care much. Seeing the old man, whose Sea of Qi he had locked, fall to his death from the broken bridge, Li Fuchan immediately raised his wind again.

But only a moment later, he landed again. Looking at the identical broken bridge and the white-robed, white-haired old man in front of him, Li Fuchan's gaze narrowed slightly.

"Interesting."

Upon seeing Li Fuchan, the old man's expression remained unchanged. He then uttered a chilling farewell. "Young man, I unfortunately fell off the bridge while crossing it, and my body has fallen to the bottom. Please, have a kind heart and help this old man retrieve it."

Li Fuchan did not step forward easily. Illuminating Light surged between his brows as he began to speculate on the scene before him.

"These repeated broken bridges couldn't be his doing; it's the Purple Mansion Lord of the Pivot Court stopping me. But he doesn't look like False Body; it must be some kind of lost Ancient Arts."

Li Fuchan withdrew the Illuminating Light, and in a few steps arrived in front of the old man. Before the old man could say anything, she attacked fiercely, piercing through his body.

Then, carrying this body, he continued his journey on the wind. A moment later, the familiar broken bridge reappeared, and the old man in white robes and white hair was still there. This time, Li Fuchan didn't even glance at him. Suddenly, a pupilless vertical eye burst open between his brows, and an Illuminating Light shot out, suppressing the old man's Spiritual Nature.

Then, with one hand holding the old man whose body he had pierced earlier, and the other hand grabbing the old man whose Spiritual Nature he had suppressed, he fully activated "Embrace-Lock Crouching Cicada" to absorb and refine the strange energy flowing between the two old men who looked alike, one dead and one alive, allowing him to adapt to it, and then continued on his way.

"Hold lock".

The more energy he absorbs and refines, the stronger his own energy will become, and sooner or later he will become immune to this method.

This time, he didn't ride the wind; instead, he went downhill.

A moment later, when he looked up, he found himself indeed standing under the broken bridge, and on the bridge, there seemed to be an old man gazing into the distance, looking at something.

"Huh? That's strange. I clearly sensed his presence, so how did he suddenly disappear?"

The old man frowned slightly.

He knew the person he was facing this time was no ordinary individual, but the Purple Mansion Lord was watching him closely. If he could...

Successfully accomplishing this task will surely bring great merit and reward you handsomely.

Just as he was worrying, he suddenly felt a chilling aura rising from beneath him.

A Daoist in a blue and white robe, wearing a silver crown and hairpin, slowly rose from under the bridge.

His expression changed instantly, but due to the restraint he had placed while using that Ancient Arts, he was unable to stand up.

Li Fuchan flicked three Sword Qi from her fingertips, aiming at the old man's Three Palaces respectively. Before he could speak, she laughed and said, "Which version of you will fall down, the dead version or the living version?"

The old man was rendered speechless by his question.

His Ancient Arts had clearly been broken by Li Fuchan.

Although he himself cultivated the Water Virtue, his offensive methods were limited, and he was helpless against a Lesser Yin who had mastered Sword Qi.

Looking at the three sharp and unstoppable Sword Qi before him, the old man sighed and said, "Truly, every generation produces outstanding talents. They've only exchanged a few blows, yet they've already broken through my methods."

He pointed to the living body that Li Fuchan was holding and said, "This is the one I threw down."

Li Fuchan smiled gently. Since the choice was made to live, there was no need for him to take action.

Although the old man before him also possessed Blood Qi, he was no longer bound by the "Li Thunder" Restraint, so there was no need for a life-or-death struggle. Moreover, the old man's methods were quite formidable; such methods were truly inconceivable, requiring him to rely on his Register Qi to break through them. He must be the Purple-haired one from the Pivot Court.

A close confidant of the ruler of the prefecture.

If we were to kill him so easily, it would likely anger the Purple Mansion Lord the Pivot Court.

He has now broken through the old man's blockade, and it seems that the Purple Mansion Lord will no longer try to detain him.

Li Fuchan walked past the old man and was about to leave when a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

His eyes turned cold, and he suddenly turned around. His Lesser Yin Law Power surged wildly, converging into a Sword Qi that pierced through the old man's brow when he was completely unprepared.

The Shaoling Sword Scripture.

The moment the old man died, another voice rang out in front of him.

"What a vicious venomous snake."

Illuminating Light surged between Li Fuchan's brows, Golden Light darting about, making even the most Treasure Light pale in comparison.

Danger!

Danger!

Danger!

He is the Purple Mansion Lord.

Even though Li Fuchan had glimpsed the hem of the Purple Mansion True Lord's robe during his Tribulation Divination at the Outer Scenery Great Accomplishment Realm, he lost his sight immediately.

He has only just achieved minor success in the Outer Scenery, yet Purple Mansion Lord has suddenly appeared.

Just as he was filled with despair, another clear, cold voice rang out behind him.

"A bet's a bet, Changyin."

At the crucial moment, the Purple Mansion Lord of Azure Ram Temple finally appeared.
