Yellow Court Daoist

Chi Yun Peak.

Lu Qingfeng had been setting talismans non-stop these past half-months, which were activated by the situation.

One by one, they absorbed Spiritual Energy, containing spirit light.

The Qi of the Nine Heavens circulated within them, connecting the local energies, Spiritual Energy.

Chi Yun Peak.

Disciples, deacons, and elders, whether cultivating or conversing, almost simultaneously noticed a sudden tremor in the Spiritual Energy of Chi Yun Peak, and the earth also shook violently.

"What's going on?"

"An earthquake!"

"It's an earthquake!"

"Chi Yun Peak is a Spiritual Mountain protected by arrays, how could there be an earthquake like in the mortal realm?"

...

The cultivators of Chi Yun Peak each showed a look of surprise.

An earthquake.

For mortals, it belongs to the wrath of heaven, irresistible. But for Immortal Sect and cultivators, Spiritual Mountains are sturdy, caves, and houses are protected by arrays; thus, the impact of an earthquake is minimal.

The crowd was not scared.

They were merely curious about the occurrence of an earthquake on Chi Yun Peak.

Several Foundation Establishment Elders flew into the air to investigate.

Upon seeing that, they were immediately shocked.

They saw that above and below Chi Yun Peak, places were flickering with spirit light. Upon closer inspection, these spirit lights were clearly individual talismans. Countless talismans connected into one, enveloping the entire Chi Yun Peak.

Oddly enough, the Mountain Guarding Array showed no reaction whatsoever.

"Quickly report to the Sect Leader!"

The Foundation Establishment Elder shouted loudly, finally showing a hint of panic in the face of the unknown.

There was no need for the Foundation Establishment Elder to report.

Yang Bufan was cultivating in seclusion in the Chi Yun Cave behind the mountain of Chi Yun Peak, and he felt the tremors of the earth's veins and fluctuations of Spiritual Energy early on, prompting him to leave Chi Yun Cave to investigate.

Upon seeing the talismans scattered all over Chi Yun Peak, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, a sense of foreboding surged in his heart.

Just about to move, to first leave Chi Yun Peak then investigate further.

Buzz!

In his ears and mind, suddenly a buzzing sound echoed, causing Yang Bufan's legs to weaken, his True Yuan to rage, and he fell directly from the sky, crashing into the ground headfirst.

"Pu!"

Yang Bufan's mind roared, his True Yuan uncontrollable, immediately spitting out a mouthful of reverse blood, his face turned ghostly pale.

At this time on Chi Yun Peak.

Even the Sect Leader, at the Spirit Void level, couldn't withstand it, fell from the sky, severely injured and coughing blood.

How could the Postnatal and Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Red Rainbow Sect withstand it?!

In just an instant.

At least five hundred Postnatal Cultivators on Chi Yun Peak, their bodies exploded open at all acupoints, Inner Breath and True Qi raging. Even their Dantians burst open with a huge hole. Years, even decades of hard cultivation turned to naught.

Upon observing the mere six remaining Foundation Establishment Elders on Chi Yun Peak, including Elder Wu Ming who was in seclusion within the Hidden Treasure Hall, they were equally severely damaged.

The earth's energy overturned, Spiritual Energy fluctuated.

Causing their internal True Yuan to become uncontrollable. Wu Ming was in the midst of closed-door cultivation, his True Yuan raged in an instant, with his cultivation technique running out of control.

"Pu!"

Wu Ming tilted his head back and spewed blood, his body burst open all over, blood splattered, turning into a bloody figure in an instant.

His eyes dim and lifeless.

Thus, he perished!

The other elders were luckier, yet still could not escape severe injuries.

Pu Pu Pu!

Bang Bang Bang!

Hundreds of people on Chi Yun Peak bled, their bodies' major acupoints exploded.

Next to the Hidden Treasure Hall, Lu Qingfeng's body surged with True Yuan, his expression solemn and even somewhat pale.

Beads of sweat gathered.

In his mind, Zhu Rong Demon God silently roared out. Ju Mang Demon God looked dim, only recently visualized by Lu Qingfeng, its power limited, yet it also released a trace of force roaming through Lu Qingfeng's body, suppressing peculiarities in various places.

Back Mountain.

Yang Bufan slowly rose to his feet.

Blood trickled from the corners of his mouth, struggling desperately to suppress his True Yuan, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

The strike he had just experienced was indeed beyond his expectations.

It was neither the force of an array nor a common Daoist skill. Everything was traceless, catching him totally off guard and causing severe damage. Although he managed to suppress the injury for the moment, it seemed that an even more terrifying strike was brewing.

"This place is not safe to stay!"

Yang Bufan's thoughts moved, and he staggered underfoot, intending to flee towards the outside of Chi Yun Peak.

But at this moment.

A thunderous and heavy sound erupted from above and below Chi Yun Peak.

Yang Bufan had just risen when he suddenly felt the entire Chi Yun Peak overturn, pinning him to the ground.

Bang!

"Spurt!"

Yang Bufan instantly fell prone to the ground, feeling as if a mountain weighed on him, his entire skeleton seemingly about to be crushed to dust. He clenched his teeth tightly, and in an instant, his teeth shattered.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators and Postnatal cultivators of Chi Yun Peak also collapsed to the ground, unable to resist or move at all due to the mountain's oppressive force.

All his bones shattered, his Inner Breath, True Qi, and True Yuan dissipated.

Years of hard cultivation turned into nothing.

From now on, he would be crippled!

"Hmph!"

With that strike, Lu Qingfeng let out a muffled snort, a trickle of blood escaping his lips.

Within his body, the short-lived form of Ju Mang Demon God sprang forth—

Bang!

A soft sound, and it directly dissipated into nothingness.

Over a month of hard work turned to vain.

However, as Lu Qingfeng opened his eyes, a pale smile appeared on his face.

This smile, combined with the tragic scene on Chi Yun Peak at the moment, gave a chilling sense.

As he opened his eyes, the entire Chi Yun Peak was in his sight.

The vast Chi Yun Peak still sat upon the earth. But in Lu Qingfeng's eyes, the mountain seemed to be upside down, pinned above the earth. All beings in the mountain, including cultivators and wild beasts, except him, were suppressed by it.

Including Yang Bufan, none could move.

Lu Qingfeng rose to his feet, his steps unsteady as he walked towards the Hidden Treasure Hall. Along the way, the cultivators of the Red Rainbow Sect sprawled on the ground, blood splattered, each with eyes wide open in immense terror and agony.

"Just a quarter of an hour ago, these cultivators were all talking and laughing, planning to follow the Red Rainbow Sect, to slay the cultivators of Luoxia Sect and gain merits."

"Full of vigor."

"In the blink of an eye, their cultivation destroyed, their bodies wrecked, reduced to useless beings."

"The workings of Heavenly Mechanism are indeed unpredictable."

Lu Qingfeng recalled the faces and the discussions of these Red Rainbow Sect cultivators he had seen and heard in Chi Yun Peak over the past half month, finding it ironic at one moment and heartlessly cruel at another.

"Nine Heavens Talisman Inverting Heaven and Earth Technique!"

"Truly a Divine Power of the Demon Dao!"

Lu Qingfeng shook his head, feeling no pity for these Red Rainbow Sect cultivators, while marveling at the strength and ruthlessness of the Demon Dao Method.

"Divine Skills: Nine Heavens Talisman Inverting Heaven and Earth Technique"

"Grade: Common"

"Derivation Technique: Tenfold Strengthening"

"Description: A technique to flip mountains, capable of inverting mountains to suppress and exterminate all life spirits within."

This was a Daoist skill he had derived in the Red Smoke Realm from the twelve Du Tian Fierce Fire Divine Banners, converted it into a high-level technique.

He had never practiced it before.

But arriving in the Changqing Realm, moved by the realities of the situation, he enhanced it to the Divine Power Level and began cultivating mastery.

Originally performed by the Fiery Fire Wanderer, given enough time, even Luo Fu Immortal Mountain could be forcibly flipped and overturned.

Destroying the Immortal Mountain.

But this technique harms others and not oneself, causing immense damage to oneself. Even the Fiery Fire Wanderer, at the Mahayana True Immortal Level, could not withstand it.

Lu Qingfeng had enhanced this technique to the Divine Power Level, its strength increasing by at least tenfold!?

If originally performing the Nine Heavens Talisman Inverting Heaven and Earth Technique could only overturn Luo Fu Immortal Mountain at the Mahayana True Immortal Level, then after enhancing to Divine Power, it could be done even at the Primordial Spirit Stage.

Of course.

The difficulty would naturally be much higher.
