Chapter 8: No Way Out

  The vast ocean has no boundaries, and the islands on the sea surface are the domain of demon cultivators and immortal cultivators. However, the boundless underwater world is the domain of monster cultivators, whose power far surpasses that of immortal cultivators and demon cultivators.

  The underwater repair demon world has three major forces, like the three great empires.

  One is the Azure Dragon Palace, and the master of the Azure Dragon Palace is naturally the divine beast Azure Dragon. It is known as the number one expert in the overseas cultivation world, and even super experts among cultivators and demon cultivators cannot compare to the master of the Azure Dragon Palace.

  The Second is the Jiuxiao Temple, and the Jiuxiao Temple has nine leaders. The true body of these nine leaders are a variant of the Jiaolong - the Zi Xiaolong. Although their individual strength may not be as strong as that of the Qinglong Palace's master, they have an advantage in numbers with nine brothers, each one being a super expert.

  Three is the Azure Water Mansion, and the master of the Azure Water Mansion is a divine beast, belonging to the variant divine beast 'Three-eyed Azure Toad'. Its third eye has extremely powerful might, and its attack is very sinister. Although its strength is slightly weaker than that of the master of the Qinglong Palace, it's precisely because of that sinister third eye that even the master of the Qinglong Palace doesn't have a grasp on winning.

  These three superpowers, in the underwater Xiāo Yōu world, are like three super empires, each occupying nearly ten thousand square miles of water. The status of these three superpowers is unshakeable, they are the absolute overlords.

  Under these three superpowers, there are also smaller forces.

  The waters controlled by the Jiuxiao Temple are nine million miles in circumference, and within the Jiuxiao Temple, there are eight forces. These eight major forces are completely under the control of the Jiuxiao Temple, and the Chi Xue Cave is one of the eight major forces, controlling the northernmost 800-mile sea area within the Jiuxiao Temple.

  "The layout is clear, just like the Dragon Continent, the Qinglong Palace, Jiuxiao Temple, and Bishui Mansion are like the three major dynasties. As for the Red Blood Cave Mansion, it's like a group under the jurisdiction of the Jiuxiao Temple, and I'm currently in the sea area controlled by the Red Blood Cave Mansion."

  Qin Yu's heart was clear and bright.

  In the past, Qin Yu knew nothing about the world of sea bottom cultivators and naturally felt worried and afraid. A person is most fearful of what they don't know. When everything became clear later on, although Qin Yu knew that there were countless experts among the sea bottom cultivators, he felt much more at ease in his heart.

  The underwater demon repair world is obviously much larger than the Qianlong continent, and there are many more masters. It's not even on the same level. From the underwater demon repair world, dozens of demon repairs can be easily swept away by the entire Qianlong continent.

  Mortal Continent. The world of sea floor cultivators is fundamentally two levels apart.

  "Hehe, others can't tell I'm a foreigner at first glance, it's because of this."

  Qin Yu's hands appeared with two jade tokens.

  These jade pendants were taken from the bodies of two just-killed Xiu Yao, with the top half having the words "Nine Calamities" and the bottom half having the words "Crimson Blood", all emitting a special aura.

  At the beginning, Jiuxiao Temple ordered: Within the jurisdiction of Jiuxiao Temple, all cultivators who reached the Golden Elixir stage must obtain an 'Identity Jade Card'. Cultivators with the same power within the territory of Jiuxiao Temple are not allowed to kill each other.

  There are nine kinds of identity jade cards for the cultivators in Jiuxiao Temple.

  "Nine Calamities, Crimson Blood"

  "Nine Calamities, Gigantic Armor"

  Inside the Jiuxiao Temple, there is a 'Red Blood Cave Mansion' type of major force, so naturally, there are eight identity jade cards of the 'Jiuxiao, Red Blood' type. As for the remaining last one, it's just 'Jiuxiao'. This is directly under the Jiuxiao Temple and is not controlled by the Eight Great Forces. It is a symbol of cultivators who do not belong to any of the eight major forces.

  Those who possess the 'Nine Calamity' identity jade plate, no demon cultivator within the Nine Calamity realm can be killed. Once someone is killed, the guard troops of the Nine Calamity Temple will enforce the law.

  The Xiūyāo Qián who possesses the 'Jiǔshà, Chì Xuè' identity jade card can only not kill other Xiūyāo with the same 'Jiǔshà, Chì Xuè' identity jade card, but can kill those with different identity jade cards.

  "The Nine Evils Hall" order is to let the eight major forces under his command mutually slaughter each other, causing damage to their strength. While he himself controls the Xiu Yao, others are not allowed to kill them. Naturally, the number of Xiu Yao directly under him continues to increase.

  Qin Yu's face had a hint of a smile.

  "From now on, I will be a part of the Jiuxiao Temple and the Chi Xue Dong Fu." Qin Yu took one of the jade cards and dripped his blood onto it to acknowledge its ownership before merging it into his body. The other card was casually tossed into the spatial ring.

  Jiuxiao Hall never worried about others taking away their identity jade cards. They would rather have some masters take this kind of identity jade card.

  Once you have this identity jade card, you can sense the information of other people's identity jade cards. If it is the same kind of identity jade card, then they are considered to be one's own family. If not, then they can kill each other.

  Of course, you can also kill your own family members, it's just that you have the confidence to make law enforcement unaware of it and have the confidence to resist law enforcement.

  At first, it was precisely because they didn't have an identity jade card that Qin Yu and Xiao Hei were discovered by those demonic cultivators as soon as they infiltrated the deep sea.

  "But... even if I had the jade token, I don't have any demonic aura on me." Qin Yu slightly furrowed his brow. The aura of a demon cultivator was commonly known as 'demonic aura', and it was usually easy for other demon cultivators to distinguish. This was also why others could immediately tell that Qin Yu was a immortal cultivator.

  Qin Yu felt a bit complicated.

  Although the identity jade card is present, others can sense the aura of the identity jade card. If they don't pay close attention, they won't be able to discern Qin Yu's true identity. However, once they carefully observe Qin Yu's aura and discover that there is no demonic energy, it will become dangerous.

  "Evil spirit." Qin Yu's eyebrows were deeply furrowed, and he muttered under his breath.

  However, in his mind, he was constantly thinking. The cultivators of the demon race could be identified by their identity jade cards and their demonic aura. After all, the cultivators of the demon race were generally also human-shaped, and their appearance was not much different from that of the immortal cultivators and the devil cultivators.

  "Ah, Beiming!"

  Qin Yu's mouth corners rose with a hint of a smile.

  Beiming, a secret technique of the demonic path. The difficulty is several levels higher than 'Soul Search'. The demonic path 'Beiming' is a secret technique that combines the power of the soul and the true yuan force of the body to cultivate. Beiming has two functions: one is to converge the breath, and the other is to accelerate cultivation.

  If you want to converge your breath, just use a little bit of soul power to cast it out, and the whole body's breath will be completely absorbed.

  If accelerating cultivation, more soul power is needed to be used. Not only all the breath in the body is absorbed, but also the heavenly spiritual energy from outside is absorbed. At this moment, outsiders see that the person who casts 'North Ming' method seems like a black hole, devouring all the spiritual energy around.

  Using spiritual awareness to control a person involves two aspects: one is to examine the other person's spiritual awareness and the other is to examine the aura emitted by oneself.

  "As soon as I use the Northern Dark, my breath doesn't scatter and go out. Others can't sense my breath at all, not even the aura of the Starry Sky's power. The other party might think that I'm cultivating some kind of special demonic cultivation method." This is a compromise.

  Qin Yu is not a demon cultivator. Demon cultivators naturally emit demonic energy that cannot be formed, and can only absorb all kinds of breath. If others find themselves rooted

  This discovery can't detect any aura from Qin Yu, generally people would think that Qin Yu is a mysterious high-ranking expert.

  Qin Yu, who was thinking about cultivating the magic path 'North Ming', didn't notice a small blue fish not far away.

  Qin Yuling's spiritual awareness scanned the surroundings, and she didn't care about ordinary fish and shrimp. Only when Qin Yuling reached the Golden Elixir stage would she pay attention. This small blue fish was

  A small congenital boundary fish, often seen in the deep sea.

  ……

  In the palace of the Sang tribe.

  San Mo sat alone in the grand hall, drinking wine mouthful by mouthful. After spending several days without finding Qin Yu, San Mo had invited Kan

  The thirty top experts of the "Green-eyed Fish Tribe" who were said to have a "line of sight that covered the entire ocean".

  "Senior Sanmo, the murderer has been found." The man with cyan fish scales on his face walked quickly into the main hall and then bowed to Sanmo.

  Smiled and said.

  The ink-stained hand paused with the wine cup.

  "You said...the murderer has been found?" A gleam appeared in Sang Mo's eyes, and a killing intent burst out.

  That blue-eyed fish tribe man proudly said: "Isn't it just a 100,000-mile radius? My thirty tribesmen and I searched together, each of us controlling"

  "Among thousands of fish, countless fish at the bottom of the sea, who would notice an ordinary fish?"

  "Haha. Quick, tell me, where is he?" Sang Mo was overjoyed.

  The man of the Azure Eye Fish Clan handed a jade slip directly to Sang Mo, after all, it was difficult to explain clearly with language. But with spiritual awareness, it was simple and easy to draw clearly.

  Sang Muling's eyes swept across, and in an instant, he knew where Qin Yu was.

  "Alright, once we catch the culprit, I will thank you profusely." Sang Mo was extremely excited at this moment.

  That blue-eyed fish tribe man smiled and said: "San Mo senior, I'll go with you. Even if the murderer moves, I can still locate his position"

  "Clearly tell your seniors."

  "Alright, then follow me."

  San Mo finished speaking and directly transformed into a red light that shot out of the palace, rushing extremely fast in the direction where Qin Yu was located. The man from the Qingyan fish tribe also followed San Mo.

  Shoulder to shoulder they rushed to go, in the flight process, Sang Mo also began to pass on the news to his clansmen to surround that area.

  "This time, no matter what, he can't escape again!" Sang Mo's eyes gleamed with a fierce light, his murderous intent swirling around him.

  ……

  Qin Yu infiltrated a mountain rock and began to try to cultivate the demonic path's secret technique 'North Ming'.

  Searching for one's soul only uses the power of the soul. It's quite simple, really. However, 'North Ming' is about fusing the power of the soul with one's own true yuan power. Qin Yu possesses

  There is the power of the stars, which means merging with the power of the stars.

  A stream of star power is drawn out from within the dantian. It rises up to the brain, where it comes into contact with a stream of spiritual power.

  "What fusion? How to fuse?"

  Qin Yu discovered that the Star Power and Soul Power were fundamentally two different levels of energy, which could not be merged at all, because even Soul Power could

  Crossing the power of the stars. The power of the soul is like nothingness, while the power of the stars is tangible.

  "No wonder this ancient book says that cultivating 'North Ming' is extremely difficult, and the founder only created it after crossing the tribulation." Qin Yu slightly furrowed his brow.

  。

  The power of the soul and the power of the stars are two completely different levels. Only ghosts know how the creator actually merged them.

  ……

  "San Mo senior, my children have sent me information that the murderer is within three hundred miles in the southwest direction, inside a mountain rock, and seems to be cultivating"

  The man of the Azure Eye Fish Tribe smiled confidently at Sang Mo.

  Sang Mo's eyes lit up, and behind him were more than 20 of his clansmen, while in several other directions there were also people from the Sang clan surrounding them.

  "Three hundred miles, very good."

  His whole body was boiling with rage as he recalled the scene of his son's head being pierced and his golden elixir being snatched away.

  Mo was unable to control his anger.

  "Go!"

  The crimson long gown fluttered open, and the speed increased to another level, directly rushing towards the place where Qin Yu was at this moment. The blue-eyed fish tribe man beside him...

  More than 20 tribesmen also followed Sang Mo and Qin Yu to hurry over.

  Only three hundred miles, for a cultivator of demonic arts, it's really very short.

  Before long, Sang Mo and Qin Yu were only a few dozen miles apart.

  Inside the mountain rock, Qin Yu's spirit suddenly changed color and his eyes opened immediately. His spirit clearly discovered that in the northeast direction, Sang

  Mo Zheng brought many experts with him, fortunately Qin Yu's spiritual awareness was stronger than before and its range had also increased significantly.

  Seeing Sang Mo rushing over in a straight line, and with the expression on his face, Qin Yu had 90% confidence that Sang Mo knew where he was.

  He couldn't bear to think about why the other party knew where he was, so Qin Yu quickly left the mountain rocks and stepped on the flying sword, opening up 'Human Mechanism'

  Hei Yi rushed southward in the morning. Sang Mo didn't exert his full speed to chase after him, so naturally he wasn't as fast as Qin Yu.

  ……

  "No good, the murderer seems to have found us and has run south." The green-eyed fish tribe man suddenly became anxious.

  Sang Mo's face changed color.

  The man of the Azure Eye tribe said: "The murderer's speed is extremely fast, my children can't keep up at all. Maybe my other tribesmen can control the fish to...

  Enough to find the murderer, but other tribesmen are still in the Sang Palace.

  "It's okay, I've arranged for our people to be in other directions."

  The dark energy on Sang Mo's face was revealed, and at the same time, a red robe suddenly opened, transforming into a giant eight-clawed octopus with eight fleshy pillars shaking.

  A streak of light shot out and chased after him in the southern direction, its speed even faster than Qin Yu's combined strength.

  ……

  Qin Yu suddenly stopped as he was flying south at high speed.

  "Someone!"

  His spiritual awareness clearly discovered that dozens of miles away, there were more than a dozen eight-clawed octopuses from the same clan, although only a dozen or so were found now, but who knows

  Is there more? Combined with Sang Mo's direct rush towards himself just now, Qin Yu had a judgment.

  "That Nasanmu knows where I am and has formed a siege."

  As soon as Qin Yu stopped for a while, his spiritual sense discovered that dozens of miles behind him, a gigantic red giant squid was rushing over.

  "It's Sang Mo." Qin Yu's face changed instantly.
