Because of the Profound Records, he had thought those from the Ao Jing Sect worshiped Ba-Hui.

However, that was not the case. He had been wrong... dead wrong.

After failing to figure it out for a moment, he asked Shou San, “Why do you think you can rob Ba-Hui’s power? Don’t you realize just how strong it is? You are nothing but ants in front of it.”

Even though Li Huowang was incapable of recalling what Ba-Hui looked like, he still remembered just how strong it was. Ba-Hui was not an entity a few mortals could take on.

However, Shou San's eyes were filled with determination when he looked at Li Huowang. “And why not? The Sacrificial God could do it, and so can we.”

Li Huowang recalled the statue of the man being burnt at the Cross Temple. “Your deity was once a mortal?”

However, regardless of what Li Huowang said, Shou San continued to talk to himself, “The monks always say that the Buddha was once a man and only a man will eventually become a Buddha. I agree with this viewpoint. Ba-Hui might be strong in the present, but that won’t always be the case!”

Li Huowang digested the unexpected information and took a deep breath. “Alright, I don’t care what’s going on between your sect and Ba-Hui. Let’s get back to the topic. Do you really have a method to get rid of Dan Yangzi?”

Shou San nodded. “As long as you perform the Cang-Qiang Ascension once more, we will get rid of your Half-Immortal Master.”

Li Huowang remembered the moment he had summoned Ba-Hui’s strength through the Profound Records. His face slightly contorted as he recalled the intense pain he had to go through. Experiencing the highest level of both physical and mental pain at the same time was not something easy. Li Huowang had the urge to commit suicide every time he recalled the experience.

Li Huowang calmed himself down and talked slowly, “I would love to, but it’s easier said than done. I can’t do it right now.”

Summoning Ba-Hui was difficult, especially since it required the resonance of intense physical and mental pain. It was very rare to encounter a situation in which the summoner would experience the necessary levels of pain. free(w)ebnovel

“Hoho.” Shou San chuckled as he became more welcoming. “No worries, I will help you on behalf of Abbess Jingxin.”

Li Huowang felt chills run down his spine when he saw the smile on that burnt face; Those words were filled with hidden meaning.

Looking at the man he had only just met, Li Huowang finally opened his mouth after considering the proposal, “Senior Shou San, let’s not talk about this for now. I need to know how you plan on getting rid of Dan Yangzi? I have the Profound Records too so I know that there’s nothing on it that can help someone, much less get rid of a Half-Immortal.”

Li Huowang did not trust the Ao Jing Sect, especially after the warnings given to him by Abbess Jingxin.

“Hoho, young man, your thinking is too shallow. The Profound Records require the assistance of other items. In order to approach the Abyss of Worldly Suffering, one must experiment with many things. In the past, we were also doing things as you are doing right now. As they say, suffer from illness for long enough and you can be considered a doctor. In terms of treating people, no one is as good as us,” said Shou San.

Hearing the word ‘illness’, Li Huowang reacted unconsciously. “Illness? I’m not ill, and this situation is not caused by an illness either. A part of Dan Yangzi is in my stomach and he’s already a Half-Immortal at this point.”

Hearing this, Shou San stared at Li Huowang mockingly. “That is an illness. It’s an illness where the Taoists want to become Immortal so badly that they turn crazy.”

It was not very convincing coming from someone trying to steal Ba-Hui’s power. However, even though Li Huowang was suspicious about their words, he did not question them openly. He was here to request their help in getting rid of Dan Yangzi, not engage in a debate with them. As long as their technique worked, he wouldn’t mind even if they called Dan Yangzi a bitch.

“Have there been cases like this in the past? Have you treated them before?” Li Huowang asked another question.

“Naturally. All branches of the Taoist sects talk about killing the Three Poisons[1]. The Upper Poison: Peng Ju; the Middle Poison: Peng Zhi; the Lower Poison: Peng Jiao. Those who seek to achieve Immortality must first remove the Three Poisons. Without desires, the mind becomes clear and peaceful. With enough merits, one can become an Immortal,” explained Shou San while shaking his head. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝓂

“Of course, I do not believe in any of these shitty explanations myself. I’ve seen many so-called Half-Immortals and possessive spirits in my life, but never a true Immortal,” continued Shou San.

Then, Shou San raised his burnt hands and revealed his bloody fingers while pointing at Li Huowang’s head. “Taoists like you crave Immortality to the point of insanity, cultivating themselves until they become neither human nor monsters. They seek only external strength but fail to realize what true internal strength is.”

Li Huowang decided to ignore that comment. Instead, he patted the torture tools at his waist. “Senior, I can settle the physical pain part, but how will you help me with the mental pain?”

Shou San was overjoyed when he heard him; Li Huowang had agreed to his conditions!

Shou San raised his head and one of the gray-robed sect members understood his signal. The sect member then walked into one of the smaller caves.

Soon, he brought a disheveled girl out of the cave. The girl wore the same type of oversized robe and tall hat as the rest of the people here. The only difference was that her hat didn’t cover her eyes.

A girl? Is this related to the technique to induce maximum mental pain?

On the other hand, the girl was even more shocked when she saw Li Huowang as she stared at him intently.

At that moment, a hand pushed her, causing her to fall forward and onto the ground in front of Li Huowang.

The girl lowered her head as she clutched her robes, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Li Huowang looked past the girl’s skinny shoulder and asked, “Senior, what is the meaning of this?”

“Take this girl, have sex with her, and let her bear your children. When your child in her womb is almost ready to be delivered, you will slice open her stomach, dig out your child, and then—” Shou San began explaining.

“Stop! Don’t talk anymore!” Li Huowang’s voice trembled as he interrupted Shou San. In fact, just hearing what Shou San wanted him to do sent sharp pulses of pain through his temples.

He had been conversing so peacefully with them that he had almost forgotten the kind of madness they were capable of.

Now that he knew the method they used for inducing maximum mental and physical pain, he realized that the people from the Ao Jing Sect were no better than Dan Yangzi!

On the other hand, Shou San misunderstood Li Huowang’s intention when he told him to stop talking. “Is that so? You think the pain would be too mild? No worries, since you’ve already been noticed by Ba-Hui, then we can heighten the pain even further with the medicines I have in my inventory.”
