Two days later.
The land of the Southern Demon.
At the foot of a deserted mountain.
Shi Shuhong looked up at the towering mountain reaching into the sky with a complicated expression.
"Qinglian Mountain didn't expect me to come here again."
That tall, beautiful, but nightmare-like figure emerged uncontrollably in his mind.
The three major sects and Qinglian Sect have been fighting for hundreds of years, and there has never been a winner.
It's not because the three major sects are not as powerful as the Qinglian Sect, but because they all have their own agendas and are constraining each other.
However, the emergence of the peerless genius Xia Qinglian forced the three major sects to put aside their suspicions and selfishness and join forces.
For the first time in hundreds of years, they cooperated sincerely. The masters came out in full force and used many despicable methods comparable to those of the Demon Sect. Only then did the Qinglian Sect be wiped out in one fell swoop.
Ironically, without an enemy as strong as Xia Qinglian, the three major sects would not be so united, and the Qinglian Sect would not be destroyed.
Speaking of which, Xia Qinglian was too strong and harmed the Qinglian Sect.
Shi Shuhong shook his head and smiled: "No matter what, I will soon be able to become a god and get rid of my inner demons."
In the battle of Tianlu Mountain, Shi Shuhong and the elders of the three major sects besieged Xia Qinglian, but they were almost killed by the other side in a confrontation.
From then on, that tall figure that was half red and half white became his inner demon.
Even the Qinglian Mountain, which had become a ruin, he did not dare to set foot on easily.
Now, he was finally able to overcome his inner demons and come to Qinglian Mountain again.
"The best innate spiritual roots are waiting for me."
Shi Shuhong took a deep breath, raised his feet, and took the first step up the mountain.
At this moment, he finally set foot on Qinglian Mountain again.
"Haha, Xia Qinglian, you can never disturb my Taoist mind again!"
"Shi Shuhong, didn't you go to the Western Imperial City? Why are you here?"
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind him. Shi Shuhong turned around with a cold expression:
"Wei Shouyuan, how dare you go down the mountain privately without the master's permission?!"
Wei Shouyuan laughed loudly: "Shi Shuhong, stop pretending at this point. You are also here for the best innate spiritual roots, right? If you get the innate spiritual energy and advance to become a god, I will still pay attention to a mere Tantai Mingyue. inside?"
Shi Shuhong's face was full of righteousness: "Wei Shouyuan, how dare you disrespect the acting head! If the head is out of seclusion, how dare you be so presumptuous?!"
"Hahaha, Shi Shuhong, you are so hypocritical. You and I both understand that if you are promoted to the Transformation God, even if Chen Qingmo recovers from his injury, he will have to give up the position of head to me!"
The righteousness on Shi Shuhong's face disappeared, and a cold and stern look appeared in his eyes:
"Junior Brother Wei, do you really want to rob me?"
Wei Shouyuan sneered: "Senior Brother Shi, what are you talking about? Those who are able will come first. How about we compete. Whoever finds Xiaotang first will get her top-quality spiritual roots?"
"OK!"
Before Shi Shuhong could finish his words, his figure suddenly disappeared and he had already climbed up to Qinglian Mountain first!
"Shi Shuhong! You are still so despicable!"
Wei Shouyuan was furious, his body turned into a stream of light, and he rushed up Qinglian Mountain.
Both of them had a clear destination, chasing each other all the way to the back of Qinglian Mountain.
According to what He Zhiqiu said, his outhouse named "Xiaotang" lived in the lotus pond in the back mountain.
The two of them ran quickly, only to see bones everywhere, turning the beautiful Qinglian Mountain into a ghostly and gloomy place.
When Chen Qingmo used a trick to lure Xia Qinglian and her master away, Qinglian Mountain lost its two top masters and was taken advantage of by the three major sects.
Then came a massacre.
Thousands of disciples of the Qinglian Sect, plus the maids, cooks, servants, and children who had no cultivation, were all slaughtered!
In that battle, corpses lay everywhere, and the blood dyed the entire Qinglian Mountain red.
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan also participated in this massacre. They were both extremely brave and fought for the lead.
Because there was no one on Qinglian Mountain who could rival them at that time. This was a good opportunity to take credit, and they naturally would not let it go.
Hundreds of Qinglian sect disciples died at the hands of these two men, including many women, children, and children who had no cultivation base.
They are all villagers living nearby. Because the disciples of Qinglian Mountain often go down the mountain to help them treat diseases, deliver babies, kill monsters, etc., they all regard Qinglian Gate as the Bodhisattva, God and Buddha, and often go up the mountain to thank the immortals.
These villagers are not monks and have never been near Qinglian Mountain. Naturally, they do not know that Qinglian Gate is called the Demon Gate.
On that day, they sent eggs, wheat cakes, and rice up the mountain as usual to thank the immortals for their help to the village.
These ordinary villagers were also killed by the three major sects as accomplices of the Demon Sect.
Shi Shuhong killed more than a dozen villagers, including a pregnant woman. Wei Shouyuan killed even more, dozens of people, including children aged no more than seven or eight years old.
These innocent lives are all counted as their merits in fighting to the death against the demon sect to protect the common people in the world.
Naturally, the superior Nascent Soul Daxiu would not care about the lives of dozens of ordinary people.
For them, the path of spiritual practice is already covered with bones and blood, so how can they be innocent?
At this moment, the bodies of the two people were flying past, and there were pieces of white bones beneath their feet, but it had no impact on their Taoist hearts.
Now they only have the best innate spiritual roots in their hearts!
The two ran with all their strength, as fast as lightning, and soon reached the top of Qinglian Mountain, and couldn't help but stop at the same time.
This is a vast and lush grassland, with row upon row of houses, all of which are white bricks and blue tiles. They are not as luxurious as the pavilions and pavilions in Zhenyang Mountain, but they exude a strong sense of life.
When the people from the three major sects arrived here, they were all surprised.
In the imagination of these righteous disciples, the core of this demon sect must be gloomy and terrifying, with black clouds everywhere.
But I didn't expect that it was no different from ordinary people's homes.
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan both remembered that at that time they saw this extremely ordinary house with clothes hanging to dry and even food such as bacon and sausages.
The women were squatting by a small river washing their clothes. They were laughing and chatting. They had no idea that all their men had been killed at the foot of the mountain.
There was still a massacre after that. Shi Shuhong learned from the interrogations of several women before they died that the so-called core of the Demon Sect was actually the residence of the children of the Qinglian Sect disciples.
The master of the Qinglian Sect and the saint Xia Qinglian also live here.
Qinglian Sect is not as hierarchical as the three major sects, and the residences of the sect master and the saint are the same as those of ordinary disciples.
Later, they also found many children in those ordinary residences. These were the descendants of Qinglian Sect disciples.
Naturally, you must not stay behind the Demon Sect.
Shi Shuhong came to a ruined wall that was scorched black. He remembered that it was here that the children were disposed of.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of breaking through the air behind him.
Shi Shuhong was furious, turned around and raised his hand to block a green sword energy, but saw that Wei Shouyuan, who had just made a sneak attack, was already flying towards the back mountain.
"Wei Shouyuan! Stop! The best spiritual root is mine!"
