Chapter 19

He Qingge suddenly thought of the few big families that had died in Beacon City. It seemed that all of them had powerful martial artists to protect their homes.

Could it be that they had discovered that their Qi was flowing out uncontrollably? They wanted to find the problem but were eventually killed?

During this period of time, Zhang Jianchi’s life was actually similar to He Qingge’s. He had also been cultivating seriously.

No matter how arrogant and domineering he was, he had always known that strength was the most fundamental thing. He had always been quite hardworking in his cultivation.

If he did not think that He Qingge had the secret to becoming stronger, he would not have gone through so much trouble to deal with He Qingge.

The main reason was that he had used the same method previously and obtained opportunities from others, allowing him to gain a lot.

Otherwise, why would he waste his cultivation time chasing after He Qingge?

As for letting others replace him, Zhang Jianchi was worried that those people would covet the opportunity.

The subordinates he brought with him were all waiting for He Qingge at important places.

However, he did not expect that after waiting for more than half a month, there was still no news.

On the contrary, Zhang Jianchi felt his Qi being absorbed during the process of cultivation.

Feeling his Qi leave his body, Zhang Jianchi’s expression changed.

He did the same thing as He Qingge. He immediately circulated the spiritual power in his body to prevent his Qi from leaving his body.

His expression was a little solemn. A wisp of his Qi was about to escape his control and fly into the sky.

Fortunately, he was able to stop the circulation of his own Qi. If that were the case, ordinary people would not be able to escape like him.

Thinking of Beacon City, his scalp immediately went numb.

This evil spirit was too bold. This city was definitely not simple. It was impossible for a small evil spirit to create it. Zhang Jianchi wanted to leave immediately.

However, He Qingge had not arrived. He felt a little conflicted.

His main goal had not been achieved, and Zhang Jianchi was a little annoyed.

However, there might be threats if he stayed any longer. This city was definitely not ordinary.

His expression was a little gloomy, but he still decided to leave this place first and set up an ambush on the way back to the sect.

However, how could Beacon City be so simple? It was not a place where one could come and go as they pleased.

He Qingge was also able to escape from the main city to a remote town because of his talent. Even so, he was now trapped in the town and could not escape.

…

In a dilapidated temple in Beacon City, a Buddha statue with a severed arm had turned black all over. It fell to the ground and did not move.

In the middle, there was a huge lotus throne with demonic patterns carved on it. Black flames were burning on the crimson lotus throne.

There was a woman sitting cross-legged on the lotus throne. Her eyes were filled with pain. The endless Qi from Beacon City had gathered here.

All of it was injected into the lotus throne. After the lotus throne was purified, the pure essence energy was injected into the woman in red.

The red-robed woman’s face began to contort as she howled in pain. Blood flowed from her pupils.

She was wearing a red wedding dress that looked so eye-catching.

A handsome young man stood beside her with a joyful smile on his face. He was the young master of the Zhu family.

However, his identity was fake. The real young master of the Zhu family had died long ago.

He was originally Zhu Zheng, a legacy disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect. He did not expect to be able to find a Heavenly Demon Charm Body in this remote mortal city.

This was a physique that made countless demonic cultivators go crazy.

For this reason, Zhu Zheng spent a lot of effort setting up everything in Beacon City, preparing to use the Heavenly Demon Charm Body to build his foundation again.

Building a new foundation was not simple. He needed to shatter his current Dao foundation. If he did not have the appropriate method, he would definitely leave behind Dao injuries.

Other than that, breaking the Dao foundation would instantly cause one’s cultivation level to drop, and one’s body would definitely be weak for a long time.

After the Qi Refinement Realm was the Foundation Establishment Realm. This realm was quite important. The stronger and more stable the foundation, the easier the future path would be.

There were many ways to build one’s foundation, but there were only two that were commonly used. The first was to directly consume a Foundation Establishment Pill and activate one’s Qi to break through.

This method was relatively simple, but it was still quite difficult.

The second method was to use a spiritual item to fuse with one’s own Qi to establish the foundation.

This was a much stronger method than the first one. Not everyone could obtain a spiritual item like that, and it had always been quite rare.

Other than those with heaven-defying luck, powerful backgrounds, or extraordinary talent, very few ordinary people could use this method.

Zhu Zheng was a true disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect. However, he was still in the most ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm back then and did not manage to find a suitable spiritual item.

His master had been in seclusion for several years and had completely ignored him.

Of course, the spiritual items mentioned here included all the living beings in the world, flowers and trees, water droplets, and even rivers. They could all form spiritual objects.

The level of the spiritual items was different, so the strength of the Dao foundation that was ultimately forged was naturally different as well.

Wan Wan’s Heavenly Demon Charm Body could be used as a top-notch Foundation Establishment spiritual item.

Directly using living creatures for Foundation Establishment would leave behind hidden dangers, and Wan Wan’s Heavenly Demon Charm Body had not been activated yet.

Zhu Zheng had set up the Sky-Covering Array in Beacon City to cover the entire city and absorb the Qi of millions of people in the city so that he could activate the Heavenly Devil Charm Body and increase Wan Wan’s strength at the same time. He wanted to reach the best state and turn her into his Foundation Establishment spiritual item.

Zhu Zheng became happier and happier as he watched Wan Wan’s body transform continuously. Her aura grew stronger and stronger.

However, Wan Wan could not feel happy no matter what. She did not expect the so-called cultivation to end up like this.

Countless amounts of Qi flowed into her body, causing her to feel quite a bit of pain. She could not completely absorb such a huge amount of Qi.

Even with the lotus throne under her, it was still quite painful.

She really did not want to endure it anymore. She hoped that someone could save her. She did not want to cultivate anymore. She just wanted to be an ordinary person.

The dream that He Qingge had was her technique. She wanted to send a message to He Qingge, asking him to save her.

For such a long time, He Qingge was the only cultivator who could leave Beacon City, which brought her endless surprises.

However, she did not dare to make any big moves. She could only use the dream realm, and it was a very shallow dream realm technique.

However, who would have thought that at the critical moment, she would be discovered? The dream stopped abruptly, and He Qingge woke up.

This caused Zhu Zheng to immediately activate the array. Even if He Qingge had Hearing, he could not leave.

He did not take down He Qingge directly because he still had other uses for him. Besides, could a bird in a cage escape?
