Chapter 1139: Soul Controlling Lord
The Infinite Saint pondered for a while and said, "We don't know the specific situation of Qingmang Mountain, and we can't say what the reason is. This Qingmang Mountain meeting has been held countless times, and there has never been an accident. I believe those people will not risk the world's disapproval. It is better to remain unchanged in the face of changes."
What the Infinite Saint said is right. It is difficult to judge the truth of the matter based on some groundless speculations. Maybe it is just a false alarm. The Jade-faced Bodhisattva nodded and said, "It seems that this is the only way. However, the two of us still need to keep in touch privately and advance and retreat together. If there is really something wrong, the two of us will unite. Others will surely be afraid to act rashly."
This is the best way at present. There are only seven overlords in the Fallen Ghost Abyss. The four people are divided into two factions, and each faction really has two people. If the Jade-faced Bodhisattva and the Infinite Saint also unite, their strength is not worse than any of them, and they will have no problem protecting themselves.
After discussing the coping strategy, the two of them were completely relieved. Jade-faced Bodhisattva simply took her people directly to the flying spiritual weapon of Wuliang Saint, and the group went to the depths of Qingmang Mountain.
More than an hour later, the flying spiritual weapon stopped above a valley. The people below seemed to have heard the movement, and more than a dozen figures rose into the air to greet it.
There were four people in front, the two on the left were somewhat similar to the One-horned Ghost King in some aspects. At a glance, it was known that they were all ghost cultivators. The one in the innermost Jindan had a perfect cultivation level. According to Wuliang Saint, he was the Soul-Chasing Ghost. The one on the outermost was slightly inferior, with a ninth-level Jindan cultivation level, and was the Soul-Demanding Ghost.
The two on the right, the one in the innermost Jindan was a ghost cultivator with a perfect Jindan. He was handsome. Qingyang could tell without Wuliang Saint's introduction that this person must be the Soul-Controlling Dark Lord. The one on the outermost was a man with a stern expression, with a slightly golden complexion and slightly stiff movements. This should be the golden armor zombie Jinjia Corpse Lord who had opened his spiritual wisdom.
These four are all ghost cultivators, two of them are ghost cultivators, one is a zombie, and one is a human cultivator who has practiced ghost cultivation. The seven overlords of the Fallen Ghost Abyss, except for these four, the remaining three are all practicing immortal cultivation. However, looking at the four people in front of them, they are obviously divided into two factions. It seems that what the subordinate of the Jade-faced Bodhisattva said is right. There is really something wrong with the Golden Armor Corpse Venerable and the Soul Controlling Nether Venerable.
Slightly behind these four people is a ghost cultivator of the eighth level of the Golden Core. This person is the master of Qingmang Mountain, Qingmang Layman. The cultivation level of Qingmang Layman is second only to the seven overlords in the Fallen Ghost Abyss, but the territory of the Fallen Ghost Abyss has long been divided up by the seven overlords, and he is unwilling to be inferior to others, so he later found this Qingmang Mountain, which is not under the jurisdiction of the three, as a cave for cultivation.
Further behind, there are the Golden Core cultivators brought by several overlords, a total of more than a dozen people, and their cultivation levels are similar to those brought by the Infinite Saint. Qingyang glanced at them and didn't recognize any of them. They seemed to be native cultivators of the Fallen Ghost Abyss. Qingyang was about to look away when he found that the three Jindan cultivators behind him looked at him slightly differently from others.
Now that Qingyang's divine consciousness has recovered, his sensing ability is still very sharp. He can feel the difference in these people's eyes. Qingyang was a little puzzled. Could it be that these three people knew him? In the two years since entering the Fallen Ghost Abyss, Qingyang has been active in the chassis of the Infinite Saint Ghost Venerable and has no intersection with other people. Why do they look at him differently from others?
Qingyang thought about it and there were only three explanations. The first is that these people really have nothing to do with him, but they are just a little curious about him. However, he just looks younger, and other aspects are not outstanding compared to other Jindan cultivators. It is estimated that this is not the reason.
The second is that these people have a grudge against Qingyang and were sent by Shi Fu Zhenjun to hunt Qingyang down. At the beginning, the True Lord Shi Fu had seen his appearance. Although he had refined the Seven Escape Locks and could no longer lock Qingyang with them, there was no guarantee that the True Lord Shi Fu would not draw Qingyang's appearance and give it to the people chasing him. It was normal to have this reaction when seeing someone who looked like the portrait.
The third reason was that these people knew Qingyang. In the entire Fallen Ghost Abyss, the most likely person who was familiar with Qingyang, apart from the cultivators he had met during the Holy Son Selection, was the One-Horned Ghost King. Moreover, the bodies of ghost cultivators were formed after birth and could change in many ways. If he just changed his appearance to conceal his aura, no one would be able to recognize him. However, Qingyang's image had not changed. Perhaps one of the three was the One-Horned Ghost King, who deliberately used such a look to remind him.
Probably because he was worried that others would see the flaw, the One-Horned Ghost King concealed it very well, but Qingyang still recognized it at a glance, because among the three, two were ordinary body cultivators, and the other was a ghost cultivator. Obviously, this ghost cultivator could be the One-Horned Ghost King.
After making this judgment, the more Qingyang looked at the other party, the more he looked like the One-Horned Ghost King. It seemed that he had come to the right place this time. Not only did he solve the problem of borrowing the ladder, but he also found the One-Horned Ghost King. The Qingmang Mountain Meeting had not yet begun, and both problems were solved.
But think about it, the highest cultivation in the entire Fallen Ghost Abyss is the Golden Core cultivator, and the Qingmang Mountain Meeting is a rare gathering of high-ranking cultivators. It seems not surprising to meet the One-Horned Ghost King.
The ghost cultivator on the opposite side quickly concealed his gaze and returned to a normal expression. Qingyang understood that the One-Horned Ghost King might be concerned about the large number of high-level cultivators around him, fearing that people would see the flaws, or he might have some purpose and didn't want to be disturbed. Anyway, he has already seen the person, and the Qingmang Mountain Meeting will not end for a while, so there is no need to rush to recognize him.
Just as Qingyang was thinking about these issues, the group of monks also came to the Infinite Saint Venerable and others. Seeing the Jade-faced Bodhisattva, the Yuhun Mingzun said: "It turns out that it is the Infinite Saint Venerable and the Jade-faced Bodhisattva." You two fellow Taoists, it looks like you came from the same road. You two seem to be in different directions, don’t you know when you became so close?”
The Jade Faced Bodhisattva said: "What Yuhun Mingzun said is wrong. Are you only allowed to get close to the Golden Armored Corpse Lord? Is there a problem if I come here with the Infinite Saint Lord?"
The Jade Faced Bodhisattva's words were a bit harsh, and Soul Controlling Ghost Lord's face was a little ugly. However, Life Suspension Ghost Lord next to him was very happy and echoed: "That's right, I have been friends with Soul Chasing Brother for many years, and we are very close to each other. It’s normal, but you and the Golden-armored Corpse Lord have never dealt with each other, but this time you came to Qingman Mountain and you were able to wear a pair of pants. Doesn’t this change seem a bit too big?”
The cynicism of the Life-seeking Ghost Lord made Yuhun Mingzun's face even more ugly. Before he could speak, the golden-armored Corpse Lord on the other side scolded: "It is said that it is better to dissolve enemies than to marry them. Can't I be with Yuhun Mingzun?" Let’s clear up all the past feud? Besides, it’s none of your business who I’m friends with?”
