Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist-Chapter 241 - 156: Master of the Cave of Myriad Poisons! Blood Movement Technique!
After Su Que finished absorbing the Death Qi from the corpses, he turned around and walked back towards the Heaven-Breaking Army.
To avoid arousing Su Que’s suspicion, Fan Gushan immediately calmed his demeanor, allowing his expression to become gentle.
Meanwhile, he headed towards the battlefield, whistling softly.
Wherever he passed, the Gu Insects that had lost control due to the death of the Gu Master flocked to him at the sound of his whistle.
He took out several cloth bags from his robe and opened them one by one.
The Gu Insects, under his control, flew into the bags.
Fan Gushan appeared to be occupied with his efforts, but his thoughts remained focused on Su Que.
He pondered whether this mysterious person might be the "Innate Demon Monarch," yet needed verification.
After all, it was based only on experience that he discerned this mysterious person’s Martial Arts resembled the Yin Wind Claw, with some side effects.
However, whether these side effects truly existed was not certain.
In just a moment, he devised a method of verification.
Since he intended to move the "Demon Blood" into his body, his True Qi should not be affected by the Black Tortoise Blood during regular exertion.
And even when deploying the "Demon Saber," he should maintain clarity.
Thus, he could teach a small portion of the Demon Possession Secret Technique to this mysterious person, and observe the reaction upon Cultivation.
If this mysterious person remained unchanged, it would indicate without a doubt that he was the "Innate Demon Monarch."
With this in mind, Fan Gushan began to contemplate under what pretext he might teach Su Que the "Demon Possession Secret Technique."
Suddenly, he recalled that Li Xuanji had mentioned this mysterious person’s keen interest in Li Xuanji’s "Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill," having brought it up several times.
He thought if Su Que mentioned it again next time, he could use that as an opportunity, explaining that the "Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill" could not be passed on, but could be substituted with another Cultivation Technique.
Fan Gushan mused as he collected the chaotic Gu Insects on the battlefield into his bags.
Meanwhile, witnessing Su Que’s formidable strength, Li Xuanji was both amazed and contemplative.
Perhaps with this mysterious person, using the "Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill," along with his master and the Heaven-Breaking Army’s Meridian Opening Realm experts, he might directly confront the Master of the Cave of Myriad Poisons Liao Tianshan and the Five Immortals Sect Leader He Lingyu, both in the Gang Condensing Realm, along with other Meridian Opening Realm Miaojiang Village Chiefs.
His Heaven-Breaking Army could then engage Miaojiang head-on.
Thus, he immediately sent messages to rally the troops, planning to attack Miaojiang as soon as all forces gathered.
...
Within the vast mountains of Miaojiang, there lay a series of staggered, ingeniously arranged stilt houses in a valley.
This cluster of stilt houses served as the headquarters of Miaojiang’s Cave of Myriad Poisons.
The sky had deepened, and these stilt houses were alight with flickering fires, resembling a galaxy amidst the night sky.
The most majestic stilt house was brightly lit.
Liao Tianshan, the Master of the Cave of Myriad Poisons, along with He Lingyu, the Leader of the Five Immortals Sect, and their close aides, were hosting a banquet there.
And as they feasted, they were also discussing the upcoming plan to invade the Southern Domain.
Liao Tianshan appeared to be a man in his sixties.
His gaze was sharp, and his hair and beard were grizzled.
Crow’s feet extended from the corners of his eyes to his temples.
Standing tall at eight feet, he possessed a sturdy physique.
His attire was of Miaojiang style, albeit more splendid than that of his subordinates.
Silver ornaments adorned his neck and shoulders.
He wore a hat, on the front of which was sewn a blood-red Jade Pendant.
His physique, attire, and demeanor marked him unmistakably as a person of authority.
He Lingyu, on the other hand, was a charming woman.
Her skin, tender enough to seemingly squeeze water from, made it hard for those who knew her to believe she was nearly fifty.
She wore a silver crown typical of Miaojiang, and her waterfall-like hair draped down.
Her elongated phoenix eyes were alluring, as if capable of captivating souls.
Her lips, though devoid of lipstick, were attractively red.
She donned a blue-purple long dress typical of Miaojiang women.
Yet, this gown was tailored to make her seem more liberated than other Miaojiang women.
The neckline exposed a larger area, revealing an exquisite collarbone and snowy skin.
The sides of the skirt were slit, revealing her long, white legs with each movement.
Her slender waist was girded with a Jade Flute, both a weapon and a tool for Gu Control.
As Liao Tianshan and He Lingyu, along with their subordinates, were discussing their plan,
suddenly, a servant approached to report the battlefield situation.
"The city has been retaken; the squads led by Tian Longteng, Tong Fu, and Teng En have vanished?"
Liao Tianshan listened carefully to the servant’s report, pondering silently.
A moment later, he said to He Lingyu, "Sect Leader He, the city has been retaken, and the squads led by the three Village Chiefs are missing. It’s very likely they were slain by the Heaven-Breaking Army."
He Lingyu narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, "The strength of the Heaven-Breaking Army is indeed greater than we anticipated."
Liao Tianshan said, "However, I learned that the Heaven-Breaking Army has no masters in the Gang Condensing Realm."
"Why don’t we personally search for Li Xuanji, the commander of the Heaven-Breaking Army? Unprotected by experts, his demise is certain."
"Once Li Xuanji is killed, the army’s morale would shatter, becoming disorganized, and then defeating the Heaven-Breaking Army would be easier."
"In doing so, we could also reduce the casualties of our Gu Masters."
He Lingyu agreed with Liao Tianshan’s words and said, "When shall we make our move?"
Liao Tianshan replied, "There’s no time to lose; we strike now, before Li Xuanji realizes!"
