chapter 233
233. Ling Huang Xian’s Plan
Listening to Ling Huang Xian’s confident words, the black gas mass gained some confidence.
It wished for the death of those immortals, after all, it had almost been purified by them.
As it stayed longer in this Valley of Resentment, its anger towards the immortals grew stronger.
This gas mass was originally a divine-level blood beast, the remnant soul of the Forbidden Blood Dragon, which had been killed by the combined efforts of the immortals. However, its soul was tenacious and did not easily dissipate.
The immortals could kill its physical body but could not immediately destroy this gas mass, which was the soul of the blood beast. They could only bring it back to the Valley of Resentment in the Purple Peak Valley for long-term purification.
Initially, through long-term spellcasting, this soul gas mass gradually dissipated and shrank, eventually “perishing.”
However, the immortals did not know that this was a facade created by Ling Huang Xian. When the gas mass was about to be destroyed, its aura was extremely weak, no different from an ordinary evil spirit gas mass.
Its final disappearance was also ordinary, just a mass extinguished, without triggering any earth-shattering events.
Thus, Ling Huang Xian exploited this loophole, using a ruse to preserve it, making the guarding immortals see only an ordinary blood beast spirit.
The soul of the Forbidden Blood Dragon was preserved, and Ling Huang Xian used the environment here to let it recover. Now the gas mass was gradually growing. If it turned blood-colored, it would mean it had the hope of returning to its original divine-level blood beast state.
Ling Huang Xian also had research on blood magic and had figured out a good way to reverse-kill the immortals of Purple Peak Valley.
With the help of this Heavenly Spirit Stone and his spiritual magic, this soul gas mass had reached the level where it could inhabit another’s body.
Moreover, with his understanding of both immortal and blood magic, he fused them, making this soul a weapon to kill immortals.
“You will inhabit that immortal’s body, incite a spirit beast riot, and then take the opportunity to attack other immortals. You are no longer what you used to be. The immortal blood aura in them will become your weapon. As long as they have immortal energy in their bodies, your blood aura will invade and quickly become fatal.”
Ling Huang Xian smiled, and the blood beast soul felt it had already won half the battle.
Long-term absorption of resentment and blood aura in the Valley of Resentment, coupled with Ling Huang Xian’s help, allowed the blood beast soul’s blood aura to invade the immortals’ bodies. When it encountered immortal energy, it would react, causing their demise.
This was Ling Huang Xian’s plan to reverse-kill the immortals of Purple Peak Valley and also prepare for his departure from Purple Peak Valley to live incognito.
Once the riot started, he would take the opportunity to leave, live incognito, and embark on the path of the blood disciple. The immortals would be unaware, possibly thinking he had died in the riot.
In a few days, those high-ranking immortals would go out, making it a perfect time to kill.
“Alright, the immortal who trains the spirit beasts is coming soon. Let’s proceed according to the plan.”
Ling Huang Xian said, opening the secret room door and leaving.
Soon after, they successfully executed the plan. The blood beast soul infiltrated the immortal who trained the spirit beasts. This immortal still retained consciousness, and the blood beast soul could interfere with his consciousness.
Now let this immortal continue to act according to his own consciousness, so as not to be seen as inappropriate. Intervene when he trains the immortal beasts.
“Even if I have to leave, I will make sure to turn your Zifeng Valley upside down.”
Ling Huangxian sneered.
……
Now.
In the Rain Rainbow Cave, a mix of one man, two women, and many beasts.
“It’s really like a zoo.”
Lin Nuo looked at the cave, which already had several immortal beasts, and the circles drawn were almost not enough. Moreover, the two male immortal wolves were huddled together, creating a tense atmosphere.
“Unexpectedly, senior brother, you hid all the immortal beasts here.”
Su Kexin curiously observed these majestic immortal beasts, marveling at the significant difference between immortal beasts and spirit beasts.
Lin Nuo frowned. He didn’t expect Su Kexin to join their pirate ship.
Su Kexin, with her protagonist’s physique, directly attracted attention, drawing all the immortal beasts here. Coincidentally, he and Li Ruo’er came here to feed the immortal tiger and discovered this, so they conveniently hid the rest of the immortal beasts here.
Li Ruo’er communicated with the immortal beasts, and the result was the same. These immortal beasts were uneasy because their companions had problems, and they escaped in groups.
Originally, the immortals dispersed to find the immortal beasts, and logically, they would quickly bring the rest back. However, the beasts were not brought back, and several people died.
The cause of death was the same, no external wounds, died of internal injuries, and then all the immortal energy disappeared, extremely strange.
Within a day, the immortal energy was gone. The immortals couldn’t figure this out.
Lin Nuo thought this method of committing the crime was related to immortal energy, but he didn’t want to be Conan or Sherlock Holmes, just a spectator laughing at the scene.
“Senior brother, do you really plan to keep them hidden here?”
“Yes, it’s chaotic outside now, several immortals have died, and there must be a reason for their escape. I have to protect these immortal beasts.”
Lin Nuo spoke righteously, but in fact, he wanted to hide these immortal beasts to cause a bigger riot.
“Senior brother is so kind. Indeed, these immortal beasts are quite pitiful. I hope this matter can be thoroughly investigated, and no one else will be sacrificed.”
Su Kexin prayed in her heart, hoping that everyone would be safe.
She subconsciously looked around the Rain Rainbow Cave, where there was clear mountain water flowing, beautiful heavenly lotus flowers, and immortal energy permeating. Suddenly, she had the urge to rest against her senior brother.
“Young master, Sister Kexin, let’s eat~”
Li Ruo’er took out food from her backpack, distributed it to Lin Nuo and Su Kexin, and spread out a cloth, enough for the three to sit together.
Lin Nuo sat down, eating the food, thinking about what to do next.
“Senior brother, drink some water. This is water I collected from the immortal spring.”
“How is it different from the water here?” Lin Nuo asked.
“It’s different. The water from the immortal spring is very sweet and delicious, much better than the water in this cave.”
“How did you pick the immortal fruit and also get the spring water?”
Lin Nuo said disdainfully, “This protagonist, what’s with all the sneaky behavior like a thief?”
He took a sip and set the kettle down:
“Where did you hide it? Take me there when you have time.”
“Sure.”
Su Kexin smiled, leaned closer to Lin Nuo, and pressed against him. Her faint fragrance wafted out, which was quite pleasant.
“Senior brother, I’ve peeled the fruit for you, here, eat it.”
Su Kexin handed Lin Nuo the fruit. The two of them appeared very intimate, and Li Ruo’er felt uncomfortable in her heart, unwilling to be outdone.
“Young master, you’ve worked hard~ Let me massage you~ You can relax and eat at the same time~”
Li Ruo’er quickly began massaging Lin Nuo with skillful hands—legs, arms, shoulders, a full-service treatment.
“Senior brother, I’ll wipe your sweat.”
Su Kexin hastily took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Lin Nuo’s forehead. Without realizing it, they both were fanning him, massaging, and wiping his sweat. Eventually, both of them were clinging to his arms, pressing close to him.
“Can you two let me eat in peace?”
Lin Nuo was helpless. He hadn’t spoken, yet these two girls kept getting closer, touching him all over.
At that moment, the immortal beasts became like dogs.
