Zhi Qiu Yi Ye chuckled and jumped down from the tree.
“They’re idiots, aren’t they? Last time we almost fought to the death, why would they think I’d still want to talk to them?”
Ao Qing shook his right hand twice, wiping the blood off his sword.
“You have to admit, people’s minds are different.”
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye scratched his head, raising an eyebrow and laughing:
“Long Jun is right.”
Ao Qing immediately extracted the souls of the two corpses on the ground, searching their minds one by one.
It was a pity.
The identities of these two were not high, they were essentially low-level thugs, only knowing how to kidnap people and hand them over.
As for what was in the capital, and whether the mastermind behind it was that centipede spirit.
These two were completely unaware.
Fortunately, Ao Qing did not expect to get all the information so easily.
He began to search the bodies of the two Daoists.
Previously, he had searched for these two Daoists in Yu Hang Town with his divine sense but had not succeeded.
He was still searching the ground with his divine sense from the sky just now, and still couldn't find them.
This made Ao Qing certain.
There must be something strange about these two.
After carefully searching them.
Ao Qing discovered something unusual on their waists.
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye approached Ao Qing and looked at the waists of the two Daoists.
Two round holes were clearly visible on each Daoist’s skin.
Surrounding the holes was a circle of very fine black lines.
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye squinted his eyes and stared at the lines.
He looked for a long time, his eyes were dizzy and his head was throbbing.
“Who stabbed them?”
“Is that person blind?”
“This isn’t a tattoo.” Ao Qing looked at them, outlining them with his hand, “The holes are the bite marks of poisonous fangs, the lines are the spells of a curse.”
“Seal God Lock Thought, Control Heart Like a Puppet, this is a spell of the Earth Immortal level.”
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye was stunned, then gasped.
“Earth Immortal?”
Ao Qing nodded, his eyes closed as he pondered.
He could now be certain.
The monster in the capital was the centipede spirit, Pu Du Ci Hang.
The bite marks were the shape of a centipede's fangs, the spells left behind were all Earth Immortal level magic.
Thinking back to Zhi Qiu Yi Ye’s age.
It was estimated that in about ten years, Pu Du Ci Hang’s strength would reach the peak of Earth Immortal.
It was at that time, for the sake of transforming into a dragon and ascending, becoming a True Immortal, he would choose to devour the imperial dragon's aura.
It sounds terrifying, but Ao Qing was not worried at all.
Because he was now a True Immortal.
Cultivation in this world, starts with refining essence into qi and ends with refining emptiness into the Dao.
After refining essence into qi, refining qi into divine sense, and refining divine sense back to emptiness, cultivators must begin to ascend, breaking through the refining emptiness into the Dao realm.
There are also three steps to refining emptiness into the Dao.
Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Golden Immortal.
Cultivators who succeed in ascending remain as Earth Immortals in the mortal world, and become Heavenly Immortals if they ascend to the heavens.
Essentially, it is two directions of one realm, with no major difference in quality.
This realm is not considered very strong.
Heavenly soldiers and generals are all Heavenly Immortals, and are killed in large numbers by Monkey’s stick.
The Earth Immortal of Mount Lao that Ao Qing had seen before was a 仙人 who had succeeded in ascending and remained in the mortal world.
He was also the kind who could be killed in large numbers by Monkey’s stick.
Above Heavenly Immortals are True Immortals, who have touched the path they need to take, who can see through the true and the false, and touch the traces of the Dao.
There is an outlier among the True Immortals, called the Taiyi True Immortal.
What is Taiyi?
Taiyi is Taiyi, is the Dao, is the path.
Taiyi True Immortals are True Immortals who have completely mastered their own path, with unparalleled strength and boundless Dao techniques.
There are not many of these True Immortals in the heavenly court, they are all tough guys, especially good at fighting.
Above True Immortals are Golden Immortals, with endless lifespans, indestructible, and with the power to change the world and the earth with their every move.
There is another realm above Golden Immortals, called Da Luo.
This realm is the sage of this world.
Omniscient, omnipotent.
Their Dharma body spans past, present, and future, transcending time and causality, with the uniqueness of ten thousand worlds and ten thousand ages.
However, that realm was too far away for Ao Qing, he didn’t even want to look at it.
Living in the present was enough.
Ao Qing thought for a moment, reached out and cut off two pieces of flesh with the spells inscribed on them.
“This is for you, take it back to the seniors of Kunlun, tell them that there is a big monster in the capital, be careful.”
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye understood the seriousness of it, and carefully put the flesh away.
“I will return after taking care of things here.”
“The capital is the root of the dynasty, if the capital is in chaos, the people will suffer, we, the Kunlun Sect, will not allow such a thing to happen.”
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye’s execution was high.
After accompanying Ao Qing to send the five kidnapped women home.
He immediately used his escape technique and returned to the Kunlun Sect.
After he left, Ao Qing stretched, and headed towards West Lake.
Zhi Qiu Yi Ye was in a hurry, Ao Qing was not.
The centipede spirit had taken root in the capital, and would probably be difficult to find.
Wait until Kunlun Sect figured out a way to find it.
Before then, Ao Qing had to continue considering Bai Su Zhen’s tribulation.
“Unless someone can block the tribulation?”
Ao Qing sighed softly, his mind filled with thoughts.
However, a red figure blocked his way.
Hua Yun smiled and spread out her small hands.
“Where are the paints my husband said he would bring me?”
