Chapter 9 The Nether River's Plot

Lin Zu thus left with his people in a rush. Ming He ordered a blood god son to follow quietly. He planned to observe the effect before deciding how to trick other races into dealing with the Three Pure Ones!

After all, the Three Pure Ones were now his mortal enemies!

Under the leadership of Tai Qing Lao Zi, the Three Pure Ones headed towards Kunlun Mountain. To be honest, they did not pay much attention to the minor incident just now. In Tai Qing Lao Zi's view, it was not a big deal. Even if that kid called for reinforcements, it would not matter. He had the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, which made him naturally invincible and immune to all forms of magic. He did not fear the three races at all!

However, as they neared Kunlun Mountain, they were surrounded by Lin Zu and his men!

Seeing that Lin Zu himself had appeared, Tai Qing Lao Zi sighed and flicked his hand. The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda appeared, hovering above the three of them. He looked at Lin Zu with a composed expression!

This was Tai Qing Lao Zi's method. Although he had not reached the quasi-sage level, he possessed a treasure of merit, making him naturally invincible!

Seeing the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda appear and shroud the three of them, Lin Zu's face turned extremely grim. He never expected the Three Pure Ones to have such a life-saving artifact. Of course, they were the Pangu Three Pure Ones, the orthodox descendants of Pangu, so how could they not have life-saving means?

He had lost his mind to seek trouble with the descendants of Pangu!

Thinking of this, Lin Zu left without a word, taking his men with him!

Just as he had arrived in a hurry, he left in a hurry, without leaving a single cloud behind!

Seeing Lin Zu retreat just like that, Yuan Shi sneered dismissively. Was this all the patriarchs of the three races were capable of? Heh heh!

The three of them soon returned to Kunlun Mountain. Lao Zi said, "Now is the great tribulation for the three races! We should cultivate well!"

Coincidentally, Yuan Shi and Tong Tian had also gained something from their discussions, so they went back into seclusion!

The blood god son who had followed them all along, after seeing Lin Zu turn and leave without even a fight, also dissipated on his own!

When the news reached him, Ming He was displeased. He had initially thought the Qilin clan would be somewhat useful, but they turned out to be so incompetent? This? This? And you still want to dominate the Great Desolation? Go eat shit!

There was no other way. Ming He had to resort to the second method!

That was to disgust the Three Pure Ones!

Yes, he would spread the word about the treasures possessed by the Three Pure Ones, making them targets of public criticism!

Afterward, while Lin Zu was still away, Ming He, using his identity as an honored guest, began to frantically spread all the news about the Three Pure Ones through the mouths of the Qilin clan!

The gist of the news was: the Three Pure Ones would tell anyone who met them that they were the orthodox descendants of Pangu, the true descendants of Pangu, and that all others were mere insignificant beings, beneath their notice!

Moreover, the three brothers, the Three Pure Ones, each possessed two top-grade innate spiritual treasures, making them incredibly wealthy!

Not only that, but Ming He also fabricated some tales about innate spiritual roots, claiming that Kunlun Mountain was a blessed land of immortals, containing top-grade innate spiritual roots, each of which was extremely alluring!

For a time, the entire Great Desolation was in an uproar. The Three Pure Ones were too extravagant, so rich!

You Three Pure Ones have noble origins, but we are just insignificant beings? This immense sense of disparity also made most beings in the Great Desolation have no good feelings towards the Three Pure Ones; instead, they gradually developed animosity!

After spreading the news, Ming He fled directly, fearing that Lin Zu would settle accounts with him later!

When the news was flying everywhere, Lin Zu also returned, his face not looking good. He wanted to ask Ming He about some matters, but was told that Ming He's whereabouts were unknown. He could only give up reluctantly!

At this moment, Ming He had already returned to the Sea of Blood to cultivate. There was nothing he could do. For now, it seemed he could not deal with the Three Pure Ones. He could only wait for an opportunity. It was good to at least disgust them for a while!

"Are the Daoist friends of the Three Pure Ones here!" At this moment, outside Kunlun Mountain, Hong Yun shouted!

Tai Qing Lao Zi opened the formation, and Hong Yun immediately flew in. Upon entering, he said, "Daoist friends of the Three Pure Ones, this is bad! There is talk about you all over the Great Desolation now!"

Tai Qing Lao Zi was full of question marks. Yuan Shi and Tong Tian, who had also arrived, looked bewildered. What did he mean?

"This, this, and this!" Hong Yun recounted the events that were circulating in the Great Desolation. After he finished speaking, as expected, the faces of the Three Pure Ones did not look good. Hong Yun then quietly withdrew!

Tai Qing Lao Zi escorted Hong Yun out of Kunlun Mountain. Upon returning, Tong Tian snorted, "It must be the Qilin clan. These people actually resorted to such despicable tactics! They want to disgust us, the Three Pure Ones!"

Yuan Shi also nodded. Indeed, the only ones who had a grievance with them now were Lin Zu and his ilk. And the fact that the news could spread so quickly and be known throughout the Great Desolation must be the Qilin clan's doing!

Tai Qing Lao Zi remained silent. Instead, he flew into the air and began to patrol the surroundings of Kunlun Mountain. To his surprise, under Tai Qing Lao Zi's intentional investigation, he immediately discovered the hidden blood god son and some minor tribes from the Great Desolation!

"Ming He is also involved in this!" Tai Qing Lao Zi mused. It seemed that Ming He had not been taught enough of a lesson!

Of course, the Qilin clan must also be involved, but the Three Pure Ones themselves did not have the strength to participate in this great tribulation while the Qilin clan was in tribulation.

However, that kid Ming He would not have it so easy!

"There is Ming He's blood god son here. Let's go to the Sea of Blood together!" Tai Qing Lao Zi said!

Tong Tian immediately nodded, and Yuan Shi went to retrieve his treasures. The three of them then headed towards the Sea of Blood!

Lao Zi did not even glance at the great formation outside the Sea of Blood. He charged in with his two brothers. However, upon entering, Ming He had already hidden himself. Indeed, the surroundings were densely packed with blood god sons, at least hundreds of millions of them. Although they knew Ming He was among them, could they really kill them all? Even if they killed them all, what then? Would they dare to evaporate the Sea of Blood?

This was Ming He's confidence!

Tai Qing Lao Zi, with his two brothers, entered the Sea of Blood but could not find him. They could only vent their frustration by smashing things around before leaving. Before leaving, Lao Zi also declared, "Ming He, I know you can see this. It's best not to provoke us three brothers, or there will come a day when you will reap what you sow!"

Ming He sneered. In Ming He's opinion, this was merely the impotent rage of a loser. What could you do to me?

However, he was not yet in a position to confront the Three Pure Ones directly. He could only snort and begin cultivating!

Upon returning to Kunlun, Tai Qing Lao Zi also felt a bit frustrated, as not being able to find his opponent meant it was all for naught. They also dared not truly evaporate the Sea of Blood, as the immense karma involved was something the Three Pure Ones could not bear!

"This is so infuriating! That bastard Ming He, the next time I see him, I'll definitely kill him!" Tong Tian roared in frustration!

"Alright, that is his foundation for survival. We shall see in the future!" Lao Zi said meaningfully. In the future, they brothers would become saints, and by then, they might be able to control Ming He. If they couldn't kill you, couldn't they at least control you?

"Yes, Eldest Brother!" Tong Tian cupped his hands and returned to cultivate!

Yuan Shi also went to cultivate. Ultimately, it all came down to cultivation!

Tai Qing Lao Zi also began to cultivate, as he faintly felt that he was also on the verge of a breakthrough!

Not only that, but Tai Qing Lao Zi also planned to practice body refinement. After all, he had the inheritance of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique. Although it was not the complete version, the incomplete Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique was enough to cultivate to the quasi-sage realm!

And so, the Great Desolation never counted the years. Tai Qing Lao Zi began to cultivate and successfully broke through to the late stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal, then began to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique, which he had now cultivated to the seventh turn!

At this moment, outside the mountain protection formation, there was a rumble. Lao Zi was awakened from his body refinement state and hurried to investigate. He saw that Tong Tian and Yuan Shi were already fighting with many people!

Lao Zi glanced at them and nodded silently. Tong Tian and Yuan Shi's cultivation had reached the middle stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal, and with two top-grade innate spiritual treasures, they were fully capable of protecting themselves without any pressure!

Looking at an old Daoist commanding the attack over there, a fierce glint flashed in Lao Zi's eyes. How dare they attack Kunlun Mountain!

He immediately flew towards that old Daoist!

That old Daoist also had the cultivation of the late stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal. Seeing Lao Zi charging alone, he didn't even think and ran. He knew his own capabilities. Although he was in the late stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal, he lacked spiritual treasures. Fighting against peers who possessed top-grade innate spiritual treasures was not seeking death?

He had originally intended to rely on these allied forces to deplete the Three Pure Ones' strength and then reap the benefits. Now that Lao Zi was directly attacking him, how could he care about anything else? Of course, he had to run!

"Wretched creature, trying to escape?" Lao Zi sneered. He threw out the Coiled Dragon Flail, which immediately grew against the wind, becoming infinitely large and pressing down on the old Daoist!

Seeing such a massive magical treasure, the old Daoist immediately transformed, revealing his true form: a giant cyan bull. It looked like a bull, but it was actually an ancient ferocious beast, a Dou!

He rammed the Coiled Dragon Flail with its horns and actually pushed back the top-grade innate spiritual treasure!

Although it delayed him for a moment, it did not affect his escape!

Seeing how ferocious this beast was, and thinking of his own mount, was it not a cyan ox? But this cyan ox's cultivation was too high! Late stage Great Luo Golden Immortal! If this was released in the future, would you be sure the Monkey King could defeat it?

Putting aside such thoughts for the moment, since this old Daoist dared to lead people to surround and attack Kunlun Mountain, he had to be captured first!

With that said, Lao Zi waved his hand. The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda immediately appeared and flew towards the head of the old Daoist's transformed cyan ox. Boundless golden light poured down, directly immobilizing the cyan ox on the spot!

The old Daoist was clearly greatly alarmed. He did not expect the Pangu Three Pure Ones to have such a trick. Feeling that the surroundings were like a mud ox entering the sea, the old Daoist knew he was in trouble. He hurriedly shouted, "Great Immortal, spare my life! I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again!"

Tai Qing Lao Zi had no time to bother with him now. He directly beckoned, and the Exquisite Pagoda imprisoned the cyan ox within. He then quickly flew back to Kunlun Mountain. Seeing that Tong Tian and Yuan Shi had almost finished dealing with their opponents, he slowly descended!

"Eldest Brother, have you captured the main culprit!" Tong Tian quickly asked. Regarding the main culprit, he naturally knew it was the old Daoist in the distance. If he hadn't been entangled by an opponent, he would have killed him long ago!

"Yes, deal with these people!" Tai Qing Lao Zi said indifferently, waving his hand. Since they dared to attack their Kunlun, there was nothing more to say!
