Half an hour ago.
In a secluded place in Origin Mountain City.
Rakshasa's expression was solemn.
The surrounding Hades cultivators kept quiet out of fear, afraid that they would offend Lord Rakshasa.
Reverend Weeping Soul, who was carrying the Divine Secrets Mirror, had yet to return, and they had a bad feeling about this.
.....
Rakshasa suddenly stood up and ordered, "Everyone, retreat from Origin Mountain City. Abandon all arrangements in Origin Mountain City."
The hearts of the Hades cultivators instantly sank to the bottom.
Reverend Weeping Soul was carrying the Divine Secrets Mirror. It was impossible for everyone to retreat without waiting for him, unless …
Rakshasa's expression was as gloomy as water.
Because just now, he sensed that the Heart Demon Venom in Reverend Weeping Soul had died.
After years of planning, he did not hesitate to expose his identity as the City Lord of Origin Mountain City, and even sent out soldiers and beasts. The Void Demon Child even took the risk to attack once.
In the end, he gained nothing.
A crushing defeat!
He could already imagine how the other Hades members would view their Origin Mountain City Hades after this battle.
Everything was going according to plan.
But in the end, this was the outcome.
It seemed that after Reverend Bloodcorpse was captured, things started to go wrong.
Could it be that Zhishou Tower really obtained some information from Bloodcorpse?
Rakshasa could not believe it.
But he did not have time to think about this now.
The most important thing now was to stop the losses. He had to evacuate the remaining Hades members from Origin Mountain City.
This operation was too big, and it would be difficult to hide the traces left behind. If they did not retreat, they would be waiting for death.
Under Rakshasa's orders, the Hades cultivators quickly sent out spiritual messages to inform the other Hades members.
A Hades cultivator took out a black-gold circular disc.
This was a formation disc used to activate the formation.
The Hades cultivators placed spirit stones into the formation disc.
Soon, the ground they were standing on lit up with patterns, extending and weaving into a Hexagram Formation.
[Small Teleportation Formation].
"Let's go!" The Hades cultivators and Rakshasa stepped into the Hexagram Formation.
Soon, light shone brightly.
After the light dissipated, everyone in the array disappeared without a trace.
.....
Zhenjiang City.
In a secluded house.
The teleportation array shone brightly.
The cultivators from Hades, who were still in Origin Mountain City, appeared in the array.
Through the Teleportation Formation, Rakshasa and the rest instantly arrived at Zhenjiang City, which was thousands of miles away from Origin Mountain City.
"Dismantle the teleportation array," Rakshasa ordered.
Soon, a cultivator from the Hades received the order and stepped forward to dismantle the teleportation array.
This way, even if the Origin Mountain House managed to find the teleportation formation in Origin Mountain City, they would not be able to find out where their destination was.
.....
Inside the Genesis Mountain House.
Jiang Rong looked at the frosty Dantai Qingrun ever since she returned from Lu Qingshan's place. She found it extremely interesting. "Could it be that Lu Qingshan offended our Tower Lord Dantai?"
Dantai Qingrun rolled her eyes at Jiang Rong and said exasperatedly, "Looks like Uncle Rong has a lot of free time to tease me?"
Jiang Rong said unhurriedly, "I do have a lot of free time now. In this battle, Hades's influence in Origin Mountain City has been reduced by eighty to ninety percent. This is a great victory that the Origin Mountain House has never had before.
If Hades is not stupid, they would have retreated from Origin Mountain City by now. Based on this situation, not only am I very free now, I probably won't have anything to do for a long time to come. "
Dantai Qingrun felt rather helpless at Jiang Rong's words. She no longer hid anything and laid her cards on the table. "You're still calling Lu Qingshan kid. In my opinion, calling him an old monster is letting him off easy. Lu Qingshan was still a Qi Refinement level two cultivator two days ago. Do you know what level he was at when I went to see him today?"
Dantai Qingrun paused for a moment, before raising her voice a little. "Qi Refinement level eight. For his cultivation to have soared so much in two days, I dare to say that Lu Qingshan must have been possessed. Otherwise, how could there be such a ridiculous thing in this world?"
Jiang Rong was also taken aback when she heard this. She seemed to have thought of something as she said, "We had such a guess before, but it seems that it is true now."
Dantai Qingrun's tone was indignant. "But when I asked him, he gave me all sorts of excuses, and kept saying that he was Lu Qingshan of the Lu family."
Dantai Qingrun snorted softly. "Who knows how old an old monster is, yet he's still so shameless."
"Perhaps there's another secret?" Jiang Rong pondered for a moment, then said meaningfully.
"There's another secret?"
Jiang Rong nodded and explained, "Think about it. After the possession, everything has to start from scratch. Even with the previous experience, it is not easy to cultivate back to the previous state. If not for the fact that there is no other way, which cultivator would so easily choose to possess another person?"
Possession seemed to have many benefits, but in reality, there were also many restrictions.
There were two iron-clad rules that had to be followed.
First, there was a cultivation restriction. Only cultivators who had reached the Nascent Soul realm or above could possess someone. Moreover, regardless of their cultivation level, a cultivator could only possess someone once in their lifetime. This was set by the Heavenly Dao.
If there were no such restrictions, wouldn't high-level cultivators be able to break free from the limitations of their lifespans and continuously cultivate through possession? The world would be in chaos.
Second, it was only possible to possess someone with a higher cultivation level than someone with a lower cultivation level. The greater the difference in cultivation level, the safer it would be.
Yes, possession wasn't a hundred percent success rate, and the probability of failure was extremely high.
In order to succeed in possession, cultivators generally had to prepare the corresponding auxiliary formations and medicinal pills to increase the chances of success.
This was because once possession failed, the cultivator's body and soul would be destroyed and his soul would scatter, never to enter the Yellow Springs.
Therefore, many cultivators would rather die in exchange for a chance to be reincarnated than gamble on the so-called possession technique.
Dantai Qingrun quickly understood this point. "What you mean is that Lu Qingshan was forced to possess someone's body and cultivate again by an enemy cultivator. The reason why he refused to admit that he possessed someone's body was because he was afraid that his identity would be exposed and his enemy would come knocking on his door."
Jiang Rong nodded. "Moreover, his enemy is very likely to be a demonic cultivator from the Hades!"
"Firstly, how could he know so much information about the Hades that even our Zhishou Building doesn't know about?
Secondly, you and I have both seen his hatred towards the Hades cultivators. He only asked for the Blood Corpse Daoist from us for such important information about the Hades's plan to guard the Qi Dynasty, and did not mention any other conditions. How is this different from giving it to him for free?
If he didn't have a deep grudge against the Hades, why would he be so generous? "
Dantai Qingrun agreed. "You are right. Although we don't know the true identity of this' Lu Qingshan ', the enemy of an enemy is a friend.
Since that's the case, we should try our best to be on good terms with this' Lu Qingshan '. Everything else aside, being on good terms with a Nascent Soul cultivator, even if he loses his cultivation, we will definitely not lose out! "
Jiang Rong laughed. "Tower Lord Dantai, what you should be most concerned about now is what reward the Zhishou Building will give you this time.
This time, you have uprooted the Hades's forces in Origin Mountain City. With such a huge contribution, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in Origin Mountain City for long. "
The Zhishou Building was never a rotten organization that ranked people based on seniority.
In the Zhishou Building, the promotion of one's position was completely dependent on one's ability.
Although it had only been three years since Tantai Qingrun had been promoted to the Genesis Mountain House's house master, her next promotion was likely not far away from the glorious results of this battle.
