Chapter 1: The Seven-Colored Dragon Boat, Azure Pearl...

  A dimly lit room filled with a nauseating atmosphere, most of the floor covered in black animal hides, piled high with many dried and strange medicinal herbs. On the eastern wall, which was pitch-black, hung some bizarrely shaped animal skeletons. Below them, on a wooden table, lay many knives of different shapes, all seemingly made of white silver, their blades thin as cicada wings yet extremely sharp, gleaming with a chilling light.

  On the southern wall, there were over ten earthen jars, most of which contained unknown contents. However, in the few jars closest to the door, one unsealed jar was brewing a gigantic red centipede in a strange green liquid.

  In the center of the room, on a brazier, a small black pot heated by charcoal simmered with a substance resembling black gelatin, its surface churning and revealing the bodies of snakes, scorpions, and other poisonous creatures.

  In one corner of the room stood a black shrine, containing a statue about three feet tall. The entire shrine was shrouded in a layer of black wax-dyed fabric, exuding an air of mystery and eeriness.

  In front of the shrine, there is also a three-legged incense burner, which obviously is not just an ornament. It can be inferred that the owner of this room worships the statue as if it were a deity.

  With a "bang", the door of this room was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and dark-skinned Miao man with peculiar tattoos on his face appeared at the entrance. From the opened door, one could see the vast mountains and more than a dozen simple stilt houses outside.

  This room is also located on the same stilts floor.

  This is a Miao village nestled in the desolate mountains, where only the indigenous Miao people who are accustomed to the harsh environment of vast wilderness, venomous snakes and ferocious beasts can survive for generations. "Ga Za Ab!" The Miao warrior with tattoos all over his face, dark skin, and wolf-blood-stained feathers on his head is Dewa Cai, the leader of this village. And the one he called "Ga Za Ab", who lifted his head from the small black pot, was an ugly old Miao man wrapped in a spotted animal hide, with long fingernails over a foot long, and dark spots all over his face like toads. He is the great shaman revered by all the surrounding Miao villages within a hundred miles.

  The Miao Yi priest is good at divination and medicine. The ugly black pustules on the face of this old Miao Yi man are caused by testing medicine.

  "Don't panic." The old Miao man, huddled in his spotted animal skin, casually picked up a pinch of medicine from a small bottle on one side with his fingernail and flicked it into the air. "What's going on?"

  The powder's flavor was pungent and irritating beyond compare, directly assaulting the nostrils. However, Dewa, who had been filled with terror and unease, finally calmed down slowly upon smelling this scent.

  Originally, in this mountain village where the population was not large to begin with, three people went missing within two days. What's more, these three people were all young men from the village who had gone out hunting and failed to return. Dewa Cai originally thought that they must have encountered some ferocious beast, but just now, one of the missing youths returned.

  And when he came back, he was no longer human!

  Because he was covered in blood, half of his facial skin had been peeled off, revealing the white bones underneath. What's even more terrifying is that his abdomen seemed to have been ripped open by some kind of foreign object, and it appeared that many of his internal organs were missing.

  The young man drew a winding and tortuous blood path on the ground, and when he crawled to the entrance of the village, he only struggled to say one sentence, "Everyone run away quickly, there is a very terrible monster..." before he died.

  "Oni?" The old man's hand trembled slightly, and he didn't immediately go to look at the young man's corpse in the hut. Instead, he took out a few pieces of turtle shell that had been polished until they shone like jade, muttered an ancient dialect, and tossed them into the air.

  The young people in the village are all brave warriors. Even if they were attacked by ferocious beasts and died of serious injuries, it is impossible for them to say that they saw a ghost.

  The tortoise shell thudded to the ground, and with just one glance, it seemed as if something extremely terrifying had burst out of the shell and pounced on the old man, causing him to stumble backward and fall to the ground.

  Blood light covering the sky! Great calamity!

  The old priest, crouched in his animal skin, saw that he could cure the diseases and sufferings of the nearby Miao people, but he could not stop this great calamity, even himself was trapped in this catastrophic bloodbath!

  Feeling his way to stand up, and then kneeling down again in front of the shrine, the old priest already had three dark green incense sticks in his hand. After lighting the three incense sticks, the old priest solemnly lifted the black cloth on top of the shrine, inserted the three incense sticks into the three-legged incense burner, and together with Devadatta, repeatedly kowtowed.

  Behind the black cloth, it turned out to be a young man with disheveled hair and bare feet, with clear eyes and an extremely delicate face!

  Into the night.

  A thick black fog slowly moved along the bloodstains on the ground and advanced towards the Miao village in the mountain valley.

  In the dark fog, there was a rustling sound, like a piece of rotting flesh, dragging on the ground, step by step, walking towards this desolate Miao village.

  Is this fog or evil spirit?

  In the dark fog, a rustling sound suddenly came out.

  A sound like savoring human delicacies.

  Suddenly, this black fog stopped moving.

  Because in front of the dark fog, under a tree two zhang away, stood a person, a young man with bare feet, wearing a moon-white coarse linen long gown, handsome to the point of being almost otherworldly.

  The black fog dispersed a bit, and in the midst of it, there was actually a man draped in bloody clothes. In his hand, he was holding a tiger's head with its skullcap removed, still dripping blood. The sound just now had actually been him slowly sucking out the brain marrow from the tiger's head.

  This man raised his head, and if anyone passing by saw him, they would surely cry out in surprise. No wonder that miserable young Miao Yi shouted that he was a monster.

  He indeed has a terrifying ghost face. His facial features seem to be forcibly pieced together, with an inexplicable strangeness. Moreover, what's most shocking is that the facial features on his face appear to be constantly changing. One moment his left eye is big and his right eye is small, the next moment it's the other way around, looking at his face is like looking at many different people's faces mashed together.

  However, seeing that young man with bare feet and spotless clothes, the person in the dark fog was instead frightened out of his wits.

  "Who are you?" The person in the dark fog swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked.

  "What's the Twelve Heavenly Devilish Methods?" The young man with disheveled hair and bare feet didn't answer his question, but instead coldly said, "Someone like you who can't even guard their own heart, will only become a bloodthirsty zombie if they continue to cultivate..."

  "Is that so?" The young man's words had barely left his lips when a bright green light burst forth from the black fog, shooting towards him.

  In the dark fog, people didn't know who this barefoot young man was, but he felt the murderous intent and that kind of breath that seemed to make him look up.

  So he had no choice but to take the initiative and be aggressive first.

  A flash of silver in the young man's eyes, a hint of surprise flickered across his face.

  He was astonished, not because of the cultivation of the person in the black fog, but because that one green light that illuminated dozens of meters around him, apart from containing a destructive and earth-shattering pressure, actually also stirred up an extremely pure Heart Fire, and this green light's Heart Fire did not leak out even a bit, condensing at one point, like a sharp cone, rushing towards the young man, without harming even a single blade of grass or shrub around him.

  Extremely true and extremely condensed, returning to one place, this is actually a rare earth immortal level treasure.

  At the same time, dozens of feet underground, countless dull and gloomy spirits emerged, emitting a mournful cry that made one's head split, wrapping around the young man.

  A powerful treasure, a strange technique, seizing the initiative, yet despite this, this blood-robed figure was still no match for this young man clad in moon-white robes!

  A crescent-shaped jade disc suddenly spun in front of the young man, emitting a faint glow that enveloped him like flowing silk. The green light condensed with pure yang fire and those dull yin spirits hit the light shield, but it was as if they had touched something extremely sticky, slipping to one side without any resistance.

  In an instant, a golden starlight shot out from the young man's hand.

  Fine as a grain of gold dust floating away between fingers.

  However, the man in black robes suddenly changed his expression as soon as he saw it, because he had already seen that the power contained in this golden starlight was enough to kill gods and destroy immortals!

  He frantically urged on his full-force magic, and the surging magic instantly condensed into a black crazy knife in his hand. However, with a "puff" sound, that golden starlight and his black crazy knife only touched once, and after a deafening explosion, it was not just his black crazy knife, but even his entire arm, which exploded into a bloody mess of fragmented bones and flesh, a truly horrific sight!

  "Reincarnation of the Moon Flower Dharma Wheel! You are the Sect Master of Luo Fu...!" The man in red clothes was sweating profusely, unsure if it was due to pain or fear. Yet he stood frozen in place, not daring to move a muscle. For he had already recognized who this person was, and knew that if they wanted to kill him, even if he spared no expense, it would be absolutely impossible for him to escape.

  "You decide for yourself. If you want me to take action, you will surely be destroyed." Under the faint halo, it was impossible to see the original expression of Tian Yi.

  The man in red robes couldn't help but step back, the swirling green light also flickering uncertainly. "You and I have no grudges or grievances, can't you spare my life?"

  Yu Tianyi said in an icy tone, "If I weren't here, you would have already slaughtered this village to cultivate demonic powers, and what's more, it's the most inferior and beastly way. Do you still want me to spare you?"

  The man in the bloody clothes begged bitterly: "Those are just some ignorant mountain people, as long as you can spare my life, I will definitely repay your kindness... I also know where there is a vein of fine gold ore, as long as you spare my life, I will tell you that place..."

  Yún Táng jīng jīn! That is a rare treasure in the eyes of cultivators, because Yún Táng jīng jīn, apart from its own texture and diamond-like hardness, does not reject most heavenly and earthly spiritual energies, making it an excellent material for refining the embryo of a magical artifact.

  The man in red clothes surprisingly said he knew of a mine vein!

  A vein of ore containing Yun Tang Jing Jin is enough to make more than a dozen law treasure embryos' main materials.

  But Haruhi simply shook her head.

  Because he would never negotiate with anyone, especially not with a cultivator who had fallen into the demonic path and was seduced by his own nature!

  A speck of golden starlight flashed at his fingertips, "You madman! Is a pile of ant-like barbarian lives more important than a vein of Cloud-Top Golden Ore?!" The man in red clothes let out an incredulous and mournful cry, the green light in front of him surging to great heights. However, this green light did not strike towards Yuan Tianyi, but instead struck towards himself. In his mournful cry, his entire body was strangled by this green light, turning into ashes!

  Because Blood Shirt Man knew that Yu Tianyi always kept his promises.

  And Yu Tianyi's cultivation made it impossible for him to have any room for resistance.

  So this blood-clothed person, like a demon, can only kill himself before the original Tianyi kills him!

  "When others respect me by an inch, I repay them with a foot; when others deceive me by a foot, I deceive them with ten feet. This is the rule of Luo Fu. When others regard me as a god, how can I treat them like ants?" Yu Tianyi said lightly, seemingly speaking to the blood-robed man, yet also seeming to be saying it to himself.

  With a clang, the emerald green treasure that condensed the essence of the Departed Fire's energy dimmed its radiance and fell to the ground.

  Out of thin air, Yuan Tianyi picked up the green crystal ruler that was only two feet long from several meters away. As he turned around, everyone in the entire Miao Yi mountain village had already knelt down on the ground, extremely devout.
