"Kid, this is the 'Ten Yin Lock Soul Hand' that I, Lao Zu, have refined using the secret methods of the demonic path. How's that? Pretty good, huh? Heh heh! Dying at my hands can be considered your good fortune!" Xuan Yuan Fa Wang originally had a handsome and elegant appearance as a young man, but wearing a golden yellow Taoist robe, combined with his habit of referring to himself as "Lao Zu" and occasionally letting out eerie laughter, made him look extremely strange and incongruous.
"That's not necessarily true! Divine Blade, shatter for me!" Just as Zhou Qing was about to be caught by the Blood Hand, he calmly said. A needle-like blood light fiercely stabbed into the center of the giant palm, and the thickness of this blood light was at least ten times that of the condensed blood hand. The surrounding vengeful spirits were all sucked in, and in an instant, at least dozens disappeared.
Ah! Xuan Yuan Fa Wang let out a sharp cry, so many living souls were unknowingly gathered over the years, losing one would be a huge loss. Who knew that little scoundrel still had such a disaster hidden away? Seeing it once and losing over ten at a time, his face muscles twitched with heartache. However, Zhou Qing was afraid of enraging Xuan Yuan Fa Wang, fearing he would go berserk in his great anger. So, he carefully controlled the suction force of the knife body. Originally, the Tian Shen Sha array was specifically designed to absorb such vengeful spirits and ghostly objects. Wasn't Xuan Yuan Fa Wang sending over a complimentary supplement? If Zhou Qing were to fully activate the Hua Xue Shen Knife, wouldn't it be possible that in an instant, several thousand living souls would be sucked dry?
"Ten thousand yin lock the soul, quickly return to its place!" Xuan Yuan Fa Wang swiftly pinched the finger technique, and the bloody hand quickly changed into a blood light flying back into Xuan Yuan Fa Wang's body. The speed was so fast that it could be compared to Wang Ba Jiao being frightened by thunder.
"Haha! Senior, since you knew I'd be using the Heavenly God Slaughter Formation, how could you forget about this Blood Demon God Knife?" Zhou Qing's face was pale and smiling, his hand stroking the ancient, mysterious black knife body. He put on a profound and unfathomable appearance in front of Xuan Yuan Fa Wang, but in reality, he was secretly worried that the old demon would go berserk. At that time, no matter what, he'd charge forward, and even with the magic knife, he feared he wouldn't be able to withstand it. The best outcome would probably be mutual defeat and injury.
"Blood Spirit Blade!" Xuan Yuan Fa Wang finally noticed the double-headed wolf knife handle in Zhou Qing's hand, and his eyes emitted a green glow, as if he couldn't wait to snatch it over and use his primordial spirit to refine it. "If I had this thing back then, would I still fear Longmei's Purple and Green Twin Swords? I would have long unified the demonic and immortal realms under my banner!" Xuan Yuan Fa Wang sighed in regret, hesitating whether or not to step forward and seize it. He remained silent for a long time.
Actually, Zhou Qing was also a soldier who took risks. Seeing Xuan Yuan Fa Wang not speaking for a long time, Zhou Qing naturally knew what he was thinking about. "Senior isn't thinking of snatching something from his junior, is he? This Blood God Knife has great power, but it's hard to control. I'm always nervous every day, afraid that if I'm not careful, I'll be counterattacked. Even if I give it to Senior, what can be done?"
Xuanyuan Fawang wasn't an idiot, hearing Zhou Qing say this, he coldly flipped his eyes: "What exactly do you want to say, don't play dumb with me, I'll personally take action, at the very least I have a 10% chance of killing you!"
"But the junior's counterattack... Under this Blood God Sword, ghosts and gods do not stay, immortals and Buddhas are avoided. Seniors who have seen and known much naturally know its power! I originally wanted to give it to seniors, but unfortunately, the treasure of our sect was sent out and it would be bad to go back and explain to the master." Zhou Qing started to show off his eloquence again.
"Do you still have a master? You didn't obtain it by chance, did you?" This time, Xuan Yuan Fa Wang was surprised. The other party had a sect, which made things difficult. Although he could risk his body, condensed over a thousand years, to snatch the divine knife from that kid's hand, he would need to undergo another thousand years of bitter cultivation to recover. But what was more troublesome was that the other party had a sect, and they would definitely come after him, beating him until his soul scattered. The risk was too great! A thousand years is a long time! Even if a needle fell into the ocean, it could still be found. This risk couldn't be taken lightly.
"Haha! Although Yu Hua's ancestor was killed by the hands of the Xuan Jiao, the Taoist lineage has been passed down. The two paths of demons and monsters are originally connected, and I'm sure you're also a person of both paths. How should I address you? By treating me like this, your reputation will be damaged, not to mention that the two paths of demons and monsters are now in decline, and our Taoist door is in chaos. Are we still killing each other, causing pain to those who care about us and joy to our enemies?" Zhou Qing's words made him secretly admire himself.
Xuan Yuan Fa Wang thought for a moment, feeling that it was not worth it, so he dispersed the aura around his body and said coldly: "Not bad, since our demon clan's decline over a thousand years ago, I, as a senior, taking things from my junior is also not good. The reputation of Mo Dao Zong Shi Yu Hua is one that I admire greatly, and you are his junior, so I shouldn't bully the weak with my strength. However, the Hook Chen Tian Shu is something passed down by our demon clan's saint, Hook Chen Da Di, so it naturally should be returned to our demon clan." Xuan Yuan Fa Wang's words were reasonable and showed his seniority. But his eyes slightly rotated, as if thinking of some plan.
Zhou Qing naturally knew that the refined demon head was not easy to deal with, looking at his appearance, he knew that there was no good idea, but Zhou Qing would not point it out: "The Great Emperor Hu Chen passed on the Heavenly Book to the fox tribe's Ta Ji Niang Niang, Ta Ji Niang Niang was harmed by the Tian Jiao, and handed over the Heavenly Book to the ancestors for safekeeping. Our Tiandao Sect has been helping the fox tribe protect the Heavenly Book for generations. This time, I heard that something happened to the fox tribe, so the seniors of our sect asked me to come out and help. How can you say that the Heavenly Book is yours?" Zhou Qing was indeed talking nonsense.
However, Xuan Yuan Fa Wang was stunned. Although he was an ancient monster, his consciousness had only emerged over a thousand years ago, and he knew a little about the general situation of the Heavenly Book. How could he know so many secrets, and even less guess that Zhou Qing was talking nonsense?
"This!" Xuan Yuan Fa Wang was at a loss, neither moving nor staying still. He couldn't win the argument and didn't know what to do for a moment, so he just stood there stupidly. However, as a thousand-year-old demon, he still had some ability to adapt: "Oh! So that's how it is! Since this is the orthodox Dao passed down by Yu Hua Zong Shi, just like you said, our two demonic paths are originally connected, I wonder if I can pay my respects to the ancestor?"
"Let's see the demeanor of the masters of the demonic path?" As he spoke, his eyes and those of the other person stared fixedly at Zhou Qing's changing expression.
"This old devil, is really not easy to get rid of." Zhou Qing cursed in her heart, but her face remained unchanged, with a very elegant smile: "Of course, I'm eager to leave, but this time I came out, there are still a few things to do, after the matter is settled, naturally return to the mountain, I don't know if the predecessor can wait?"
"That's alright! I have plenty of time anyway, so I'll just follow you for now and we can talk about it later after you're done." Xuan Yuan Fa Wang said with a sly tone.
