Slaying Nangong and Learning the Truth!
Upon hearing this!
Nangong Qinghong's heart sank immediately. He activated his own Dao Law and fled frantically, while the Second Elder was undergoing the Four-Nine Lightning Tribulation...
But since it hasn't come out yet, the answer is self-evident!
The Second Elder is dead, and the Three-Headed Strange Bird is dead too!
Regardless of whether Qin Lu killed him or not, the mere fact that a dead person could come back to life is enough to shock the world...
Nangong Qinghong simply couldn't fathom what had happened within this secret realm!
But the more they fled...
Nangong Qinghong's heart grew even more terrified!
The glaciers here naturally possess the power to suppress the Dao Law of nature. Only by cultivating the Surging Tide Dao Principle can he unleash eighty or ninety percent of his strength...
But Qin Lu--
Yet they were almost completely unaffected, which shocked Nangong greatly!
"Is this guy a human or a ghost?!"
"No..."
"My cultivation is already inferior to his; if things continue like this, I'll be caught up sooner or later. I have to fight back and see if I can drive him away!"
After much deliberation...
Nangong Qinghong already knew he was doomed. The glaciers here Endless, and he was isolated and helpless. If he didn't fight desperately...
His only fate was to perish here!
"Qin Lu!"
"I***!"
Nangong Qinghong cursed angrily, and as he turned around, his natal magic Law Treasure, the [Billowing Waves Zither], appeared. He simply plucked the strings...
Waves of sound, like surging waves, stirred up the surrounding Dao Law!
"Snort!"
Qin Lu merely snorted coldly, and that decadent sound was instantly shattered. Even his powerful Divine Sense erupted with a terrifying pressure!
[Soul Technique: Annihilating Divine Might!]
now--
In Nangong Qinghong's eyes, Qin Lu's figure magnified rapidly, his cold pupils resembling a god looking down upon mortals with supreme authority!
A feeling of fear suddenly welled up in my heart!
"We cannot defeat them by force!"
Nangong Qinghong's legs went weak, and the will to resist that he had painstakingly built up instantly crumbled. He knew he was strange...
But he couldn't control it!
Nangong Qinghong felt her thoughts were in turmoil. On one hand, she had the instinct to run away, but on the other hand, she knew perfectly well that it was a futile escape...
It will only hasten his demise!
But he couldn't control himself; it was as if something was suppressing him, limiting his thinking, and guiding him in a certain direction...
This feeling is very subtle!
But Nangong Qinghong was too preoccupied to think any further and could only flee like a Shiba Inu with its tail between its legs!
Seeing this--
Qin Lu's smile grew increasingly wicked, like a cat playing with a mouse. Not killing Nangong now was simply to enjoy the thrill of toying with his prey!
Qin Lu made Hand Seals and released several Dao seals.
The next moment--
A massive soul hammer materialized and slammed down on Nangong Qinghong's head!
Nangong Qinghong was sent flying backward, embedding himself deeply into a glacier, blood flowing from his seven orifices, his Divine Sense on the verge of shattering...
Its body and limbs were covered with grayish-black poisonous spots!
"Cough cough..."
Nangong Qinghong coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, his Divine Sense on the verge of collapse...
Perhaps it was that heavy blow that cleared Nangong Qinghong's mind, and the hazy feeling dissipated...
He glanced at the sky, then at the grayish-black poison spots on his arm.
He gave a wry smile and asked, "What kind of poison is this?"
"When was this done? And what about your Dao Law? Why did they change from Wood-based Dao Law to Soul Dao? Even if it means my death..."
"That would be good for me to die knowing the truth, wouldn't you say, Fellow Daoist Qin..."
Upon hearing this—
Qin Lu smiled, and with a wave of his hand, his Divine Sense and Spiritual Power combined to form a palm, lifting Nangong up like a chick...
Seeing that he was powerless to resist, Nangong hardened his heart and decided to detonate the Dao Law to commit suicide!
Qin Lu, however, reacted swiftly, grabbing Nangong by the neck and using his Divine Sense to bombard Nangong's sea of Divine Sense once more...
Then, he placed his hand on Nangong's head, Nether Soul Dao Principle manifested!
"Aaaaaah!!"
At this moment, Nangong Qinghong's Divine Sense was forcibly extracted from his body. The pain of having his soul extracted and his spirit refined was like ten thousand insects gnawing at his heart and eating his flesh!
The pain was excruciating, piercing to the bone; the muscles spasmed with agony!
Kill me!
"Qin Lu, you bastard! If you have the guts, kill me!!"
See here--
Qin Lu remained silent, only relentlessly extracting Nangong Qinghong's soul. This Nangong Qinghong was clearly seeking death, so how could he grant his wish!
The situation is still unclear...
Qin Lu didn't want him to die so easily; how could the hatred in Qin Lu's heart dissipate without torturing him for ten or a hundred years?!
How can thoughts possibly lead to understanding?
"Let me see..."
"What exactly are you Frost Spirit Demon Race hiding?!"
As his soul was extracted, Nangong Qinghong's body went limp, turning into a lifeless corpse. Qin Lu then took the Qiankun Pouch...
Then the Qing Centipede directly devoured this remnant of Dao Foundation and blood!
Then--
Qin Lu then began the soul search. His mastery of the Nether Soul Dao Principle, particularly soul-manipulation techniques, combined with his overwhelming Divine Sense, made the soul search a natural and effortless process...
But once you look, you're shocked!
After reviewing all of Nangong Qinghong's memories, Qin Lu sealed away her soul...
Or perhaps it should be called: Sada!
In the language of the Frost Demons, it means: Soul Planting Seeder!
According to Sada's memories, the Frost Spirit Demon Race's third eye primarily possesses three talents: True Form Divine Ability, Ice and Snow Power, Soul Planting...
Among them, Sada is one of the very few Frost Demons Soul Planting Seed talent!
Its ability is very simple--
It involves transforming one's own soul into a Soul Seed, which is then parasitically implanted into the host's body, growing stronger as the host's cultivation level increases...
The Soul Seed will also awaken, eventually merging the two souls into one!
When souls merge, it also means the original host's will dissipates, and the body is taken over by the newly merged soul...
And this new soul is the Frost Demons, who inherited the host's memories, experiences, and personality!
Sada had been parasitizing Nangong Qinghong's body for over a century, and her Soul Seed awakened when Nangong Qinghong broke through to the Dao Foundation Realm...
And successfully erased the original Nangong's will, becoming the new Nangong!
after--
The fake Nangong lured Master Chunyang, an elder of Medicine King Valley whom he had met once before, and later lured and killed several of the Da Zhou's most Wood Dao masters...
The final two targets were Gao Xiong, a close friend, and the powerful Qin Clan, which was currently hosting a grand competition...
Although Qin Lu had long suspected something was amiss, he never imagined that it would involve Third-Tier Upper Grade demon, and that it would become someone else's sacrificial offering!
He had his sights set on the territories of the Nangong Clan and Gao Clan, and intended to refine Gao Xiong into a powerful elixir...
But unexpectedly--
They themselves became prey in the eyes of others!
Perhaps this matter already constitutes a considerable scheme, but compared to what follows, this mere century-long Core Formation stage pales in comparison...
What does it matter anyway!
According to the fake Nangong's memories, the Frost Spirit Demon Race had one king and three elders...
The Grand Elder is extremely mysterious, and he is also Frost Demons has awakened the Soul Planting Seed talent. Now, he is the former Core Formation Ancestor of the Daliang State!
That one who fled to the Ten Nations Alliance: The Demon-Quelling True Person!
That's right--
That Demon-Quelling True Person was actually the Frost Demons Elder in disguise...
