The two of them weren’t going to alert the enemy at first. They were going to climb the Celestial Asking Road and reach the peak of the Eight Views Celestial Mountain with the other and find out what they were plotting from there. However, their plan could not keep up with the situation. They were about halfway up the mountain when suddenly, they noticed that the watchful, malicious gazes on their person had suddenly disappeared without warning. It could mean that something had happened at the mountain peak, and it caused the observers to look away. They weren’t going to let go of such an excellent opportunity, of course. They immediately hid themselves and rushed up the mountain as soon as possible. After that, they saw the walking dead and heard the conspiracy Yan Guhui and Fu Qingbai had concocted. Since they were the ones who stumbled upon this incident, they decided to get involved. And how did they plan to get involved? By sending these people to the King of Hell, of course. Yes, the Eight Views Sect was an ancient and powerful Taoist sect. Yes, they had eliminated the evils and protected the people. And yes, these people were definitely the descendants of the Eight Views Sect. Unfortunately, they had ceased being humans a long time ago. Sure, it might look like their souls still existed, and they were intelligent enough to think for themselves. Their physical bodies looked terrible as a matter of course, but they were essentially no different from human beings. For a powerful warrior, true death did not arrive until their mind and soul were gone. However, these people’s souls had been twisted and corrupted by some sort of dark, corruptive power a long time ago. They had all been warped into dark, cruel, evil, treacherous, and vile existences that no longer possessed even a speck of humanity. It was like the Eight Views Celestial Mountain. On the surface, it looked gorgeous and surrounded by celestial qi. But on the inside, it was ruined and filled with dark, evil energies. Although this evil energy wasn’t as anomalous as the Nine Nethers Demonic Qi, it was decidedly more evil. It was incredibly well hidden and almost undetectable, but it was evil and corrupt to the max. Without exaggeration, anyone who lingered here would instantly be corrupted by the energy. Their soul and mind would be twisted into the shape of cruelty and evil. Take Fu Qingbai for example. Sure, he came up with that vile plan to survive, but it was also because his mind was affected by that evil energy. Ye Qing could not help but wonder what the heck the Eight Views Sect did to incur the wrath of such an evil creature; one that had warped them into this twisted visage. In conclusion, these people were just evil Strangers clad in human skin. They had lost what made them human a long, long time ago. If they ignored these people and allowed them to recover their strength, they would definitely cost a lot of lives. It was one thing if they didn’t run into them. But they did, and these people hadn’t yet regained their strength. In that case, they did not mind playing the heroes of justice one time. Of course, they originally did not plan to fight these people. Take out the leader, and the rest would fall eventually. They were going to kill Yan Guhui first because their instincts told them that the sect master was the most dangerous of them all. Unfortunately, they were discovered before they could execute their plan. That was fine though. Subtlety might have failed, but there was still brute force. “You are courting death! I will rip you all to pieces!” “Fool! Look at their young and beautiful bodies. It would be a shame to rip them apart.” A normal person could not have endured such humiliation and disregard without reaction, not to mention that they weren’t humans. Unable to restrain their anger any longer, they roared and unleashed the evil, corrupt energies. They transformed into a twisted, terrifying storm that threatened to engulf Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou. “Hey ghosts. Dare you meet the bright sun?” Ye Qing took one step forward, and his vitality and vigor slowly rose to the sky like the morning sun. It was noon all of the sudden. Powerful light reached every corner of this land and left not even a speck of shadow for the demons and monsters to hide. Everyone including Xin Yuyao immediately screamed at the top of their lungs. Their evil energies receded, and their body and soul melted like candles. They were crumbling away constantly under the sun’s illumination. As decrepit as these people looked, they weren’t actually weak at all. Combined with that evil energy, they were not inferior to any Half-Sage. Even an ordinary Sage would have to tread carefully or risk being corrupted by that evil energy. Chapters first released on novel(ꜰ)ire.net Unfortunately for them, their opponent was Ye Qing. Ye Qing had become a Sage via his body. His vigor was as exuberant, and his life force was as immense as the sun itself. Not only that, the Profound Yellow Mother Qi was the bane of all evil and ghosts, and he had enough to make up an entire world. Therefore, even without using any Magia, Ye Qing could have buried these evil creatures with ease. In the blink of an eye, every man and woman disintegrated into ash. However, dark, evil qi suddenly gushed out from the underground, and the sky abruptly grew as dark and windy as the night. It suppressed even Ye Qing’s immense and exuberant vigor. “Kekeke... you can’t kill us...” “No one can kill us here!” Xin Yuyao and everyone else he just killed abruptly came back to life. In fact, more ghosts were floating in from multiple directions. None of them had physical bodies though. Only their minds were left. Their minds were also horribly warped, terribly distorted, unimaginably ugly, and brimming with evil. Clearly, these were all former disciples of the Eight Views Sect. However, they had all been warped into this. People like them were usually called monsters. “You think your numerical advantage means anything?” If he was anyone else, then maybe they would be a bit intimidated by this scene. To Ye Qing though? It was just a piece of cake. He took one step forward, and a hum washed through the air. A black fish rose from the earth, and a white fish fell from the sky. The black fish was black and yin, but not evil. The white fish was white and yang, but not intense. As the two fishes grew closer and closer to each other, the dark, gloomy mountain peak was slowly overcome by monotonous colors. It felt like the beginning of the world, when yin and yang were first born. When the two fishes started chasing each other’s tail, the black and white colors permeating the entire area began rotating in opposite directions. They weren’t too fast or too slow; too light or too heavy. It was like a millstone. As the fishes swam, and the two colors rotated, every monster on the mountain was ground into powder like the grains in a millstone. It wasn’t just them. Even the evil energy permeating the air had been ground into primal chaos and nothingness. The reason these monsters were unkillable was because of the evil energy that existed everywhere. Since the black-and-white millstone was annihilating even the evil energy, it was only natural that the monsters could no longer resurrect. They began perishing one after another. The surviving monsters finally felt terror. They screamed as they scattered in every direction. They might be evil, cruel, treacherous and ruthless, but right now, the only thought in their mind was escape, and the only emotions in their hearts were fear and terror. Their fate was no longer in their hands though. Suddenly, the two fishes began swimming faster, and the black-and-white millstone suddenly gained a powerful attraction force. It kicked up currents of wind and pulled everything into it including the ever present evil energy, and the scattering monsters.
