The Terrifying Path of Immortal Cultivation

Li Qing quietly followed in the shadows, occasionally sneaking into various buildings, concealing his presence.

Soon he discovered a problem.

There was no aura on Niu Shisan's body. If it weren't for his gaze, one wouldn't even feel the presence of this person.

He thought to himself, "No wonder he's so open and aboveboard. It turns out that you have to see him to realize his existence."

Silently following Niu Shisan, they soon arrived at the center of the Heavenly Maiden Temple.

A huge palace was built here, inside of which was enshrined a strange statue of a heavenly maiden.

Around this palace, there was a small surrounding wall that isolated it from everything else.

At this moment, Niu Shisan had already slipped into this surrounding wall.

Li Qing frowned as he watched. He did not enter the range of this surrounding wall.

He could feel the dangerous power pervading within the wall. Approaching it casually would immediately lead to discovery.

But Niu Shisan did not alarm any power and easily entered.

Li Qing hid in the shadow outside the wall, observing through the crack in the door.

He saw Niu Shisan approaching the palace, hiding in a corner as if listening to something.

...

Inside the palace, there were several figures.

The most striking was a strange statue of a heavenly maiden with six arms, a strange dark golden color all over, wearing a thin veil, with important parts faintly visible, a beautiful face with a slightly upturned mouth, flashing a hint of sinister and charming smile.

Below the statue was a strange lotus platform, made up of countless men, all with twisted expressions, as if they wanted to throw themselves at the heavenly maiden statue.

Beneath the heavenly maiden statue was a pink canopy, where the Blood and Bone Heavenly Maiden lay elegantly. A child was massaging her shoulders, while another was massaging her legs.

Standing below the canopy were two young girls, one black and one white, who were the disciples of the Blood and Bone Heavenly Maiden - White-Faced Maiden and Black Wood Maiden.

There were also three figures sitting on chairs below the main hall.

Blood Moon Monk, Yellow Ghost Daoist, and the Master of San Chuan Sect, Li Sanchuan.

Both Blood Moon Monk and Yellow Ghost Daoist were cultivators in the Spirit Awareness Realm, with their cultivation only below that of the Blood and Bone Heavenly Maiden.

They held positions as senior elders in the Heavenly Maiden Temple.

As for the Master of San Chuan Sect, Li Sanchuan, he was a cultivator in the True Law Realm, holding the position of elder, just like Black Wood Maiden and White-Faced Maiden.

They were the core figures of the Heavenly Maiden Temple.

The Blood and Bone Heavenly Maiden's voice was charming and delicate, "How are the arrangements below?"

Li Sanchuan quickly stood up and said, "Replying to the Heavenly Maiden, everything below has been arranged."

"30 true disciples, 150 inner disciples, and 350 outer disciples."

"Attacking San Chuan City is already sufficient."

The Blood and Bone Heavenly Maiden nodded, "There's no need to rush. I have also invited the Grandmother of Canaan Mountain and the Ancient Poison Ancestor of Wudu Mountain to join us. With the combined cultivation of the five of us in the Spirit Awareness Realm, our chances of breaking through San Chuan City are even greater."

"The Mohist School is after all a mechanical sect. To attack their city, we need at least three times the strength."

"At this moment, the Divine Child of the Heart still doesn't know that I have arrived, so we can prepare well."

"I won't engage in a battle without certainty. If we fight, we will take it all at once."

"He has a deep grudge against me. He has already turned into my inner demon, and this is my final tribulation to break through the Spirit Awareness Realm."

"If I don't kill him, I will never be able to break through in the end."

"It's a rare opportunity to learn that he is in charge of San Chuan City this time."

"You must ensure 100% control over everyone and not leak any information."

"Do you understand?"

"We understand, Heavenly Maiden, please rest assured!" Li Sanchuan said solemnly.

They did not notice that Niu Shisan was eavesdropping on their conversation outside.

Suddenly, a stern shout came from outside, "Who goes there!"

The people in the main hall's expressions changed, and Black Wood Maiden was the first to rush out.

She wore a black veil and a strange black mask, her graceful figure sparking one's imagination.

When she rushed to the door, she saw the fleeing "Niu Shisan."

With a wave of her hand, a black scarf flew out from her sleeve like a streak of light, and in a flash, Niu Shisan was bound tightly.

But in the next moment, Niu Shisan's figure suddenly disappeared, as if he had never appeared.

Seeing this scene, Black Wood Maiden seemed to be taken aback as well.

Li Qing, who was observing outside the wall, immediately sensed the danger and quickly ran back to his room.

Just as he had returned to the room, the entire Heavenly Maiden Temple was filled with the sound of a bell.

Soon, there was a knock on the door, and Li Qing opened it to find an outer disciple outside.

"Leader Sun, the Heavenly Maiden has called for a gathering. Please come with me."

Li Qing nodded and, with caution in his heart, silently made his way to the square in front of the Heavenly Maiden's hall.

Soon, over 500 people had gathered here, almost filling the square.

The 30 true disciples had gathered their subordinates, each with a look of confusion, not knowing what had happened.

In front of them, Black Wood Maiden walked out of the main hall, her icy gaze sweeping over everyone.

This icy gaze was filled with terrifying killing intent, causing everyone to involuntarily lower their heads.

"Someone just intruded into the Heavenly Maiden's hall and eavesdropped from outside. It has been confirmed that it was a spy from San Chuan City."

"Now, everyone will be thoroughly inspected."

"Everyone should monitor each other, and any issues should be reported immediately."

Li Qing's heart skipped a beat, but he was not afraid.

Because his Indestructible True Body was a true physical transformation technique.

His appearance was genuine, belonging to his flesh and blood rather than being false.

The Myriad Laws Essence Qi could simulate the mixed Essence Qi of monsters, and combined with the concealment of the Qi-Hiding Pearl, he believed he would not be found out.

Soon, Black Wood Maiden began to investigate one by one.

She held a mirror in her hand that seemed to dispel illusions and reveal the true faces of these people.

Even if there were any abnormalities, they could not be hidden.

One by one, people were screened, and Li Qing observed carefully.

He found that the mirror could even dispel the strange power emanating from the mutated organs.

Feeling slightly nervous, he also wondered if he could withstand the scrutiny of this mirror.

Yellow Ghost Daoist looked at him with calm eyes, seemingly unafraid of this inspection.

Li Qing looked at him, and the two understood each other, silently waiting.

Soon, Black Wood Maiden with the mirror came to Yellow Ghost Daoist.

As the mirror was directed at Yellow Ghost Daoist, Li Qing's eyes narrowed, feeling slightly tense.

If this person was exposed, it might involve him as well. He had already prepared to use the All Things Escape Technique.

If something went wrong, he would run immediately, although he didn't know if he could escape.

When he saw the face in the mirror, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's your turn!" Black-Faced Maiden's gaze turned to Li Qing.
