Chapter 1842
Demon Seed 5
Liu Dong crushed Liu Han's primordial spirit and threw the original soul into the underworld to await reincarnation.
The scattered fragments of his primordial spirit contained Liu Han's memories, from which Liu Dong and Zhang Qingqing learned about his past experiences.
Upon learning that Liu Han was Liu Suiqi's son and that he was born on the same day as Liu Dong, Zhang Qingqing was furious.
"What a brilliant Liu Suiqi!"
If Liu Suiqi hadn't already died, Zhang Qingqing would definitely have dragged him out and torn him to pieces.
Liu Tong comforted Zhang Qingqing: "Mother, don't be angry. The person is dead. Besides, isn't our life now better than it was in the cultivation world? I might not have had such a carefree life in the Liu family."
"Too……"
Zhang Qingqing recalled the Liu family's contempt for her being an orphan.
The Liu family head and his wife wanted to find Liu Pei a wife of equal social standing, and Liu Pei was even tempted...
Zhang Qingqing: "Life is... great now!"
Unbeknownst to her, two thick beams of golden light descended from the sky and merged into her and Liu Tong's bodies.
This is merit, and the amount is considerable.
From that day onward, Zhang Qingqing's cultivation progressed smoothly, and she entered a state of sudden enlightenment several times.
After each moment of enlightenment, her strength increased significantly.
Another fifty years passed, and Zhang Qingqing successfully formed her Nascent Soul.
They had already traveled all over the human world, and there was nothing new or exciting about the mortal realm for them.
The two decided to return to the world of cultivation.
That top-grade spiritual artifact exhausted all its power due to interdimensional teleportation.
However, after a century, the depleted energy has been replenished, and the teleportation can proceed once again.
And so, the two returned to the world of cultivation.
With their current strength, the two of them naturally no longer need to hide their identities and will openly use them.
Although the powerful figures in the cultivation world found it strange that the two were still alive, they stopped bothering with them once it was confirmed that Liu Tong was not a born demon.
However, Liu Pei heard that the two had appeared, so he came to find them, wanting them to return to the Liu family.
Zhang Qingqing sneered: "You're after my father's inheritance, aren't you?"
Liu Pei: "No, I'm thinking about you. You are my wife, and A-Qiang is my child. Naturally, you should return to the Liu family."
Zhang Qingqing: "Your wife is someone else, and you already have a son and a daughter. You don't need A-Tong."
How could Zhang Qingqing not see through Liu Pei's scheme?
This person is no longer the somewhat naive young man she once knew.
Zhang Qingqing sighed but was not disappointed, after all, she had been disappointed long ago.
Zhang Qingqing immediately kicked them out.
Liu Pei refused to leave, so Zhang Qingqing revealed her cultivation level and overwhelmed Liu Pei.
More than a hundred years have passed, and Liu Pei has finally formed his golden elixir.
Zhang Qingqing, however, was a Nascent Soul stage expert, whose aura overwhelmed Liu Pei.
Liu Pei broke out in a cold sweat and dared not linger any longer, so he slunk away.
He is now filled with deep regret.
If he had chosen Zhang Qingqing back then, he would be a Nascent Soul cultivator by now, right?
Given the Liu family's resources, he could only become a Golden Core cultivator.
It's extremely difficult to achieve Nascent Soul formation...
Zhang Qingqing used her strength to thwart the Liu family's attempt to take advantage of her, simply because the Liu family was a small clan.
Some powerful families, relying on the presence of experts at the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stages, attempted to seize the inheritance of the Tribulation Transcending stage expert in Zhang Qingqing's possession.
Of course, they were all dealt with by Zhang Qingqing and Liu Dong.
Those at the Nascent Soul stage were naturally dealt with by Zhang Qingqing. Relying on the magical treasures left behind by her father, Zhang Qingqing could even withstand powerful figures at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
Zhang Qingqing's experience and strength increased rapidly in her battles with these guys.
As for those above the Nascent Soul stage, they were all handed over to Liu Dong for handling.
None of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators who caused them trouble were able to return.
Without powerful cultivators at the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stages, those large families rapidly declined, their resources were seized by others, and the families disintegrated.
Venerable Yuheng and several Nascent Soul stage experts felt that Zhang Qingqing and Liu Dong had acted too ruthlessly, and relying on their seniority and strength, they criticized the two, telling them "not to be too arrogant."
Liu Tong sneered: "Caught in a web of karmic burdens, your cultivation is struggling to improve, yet you still have time to meddle in other people's business?"
Several big shots didn't quite understand what Liu Dong meant, since after the Nascent Soul stage, a cultivator's progress in cultivation becomes increasingly slow.
It's normal for a person to not improve their cultivation level for several hundred years after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
However, Venerable Yuheng had a premonition and, upon returning to the mountain gate, immediately took out a ten-thousand-year-old tortoise shell to perform divination.
As a result, before the divination could be completed, Venerable Yuheng vomited blood, then aged rapidly and lost all his cultivation.
Less than half a month later, Venerable Yuheng passed away.
A Nascent Soul cultivator died just like that!
They died from competing with others.
Such a death shocked the entire cultivation world, and made many Nascent Soul stage cultivators extremely uneasy.
They remembered Liu Dong's words: "Entangled in karmic debts!"
What did they do to deserve this?
There is no such thing as being entangled in karmic debt in the cultivation world, so a group of cultivators went to a monk to ask for his explanation, and thus learned what being entangled in karmic debt meant.
But they still couldn't understand what sins they had committed.
A powerful cultivator who had some connection with Zhang's father went directly to inquire with Liu Tong.
Liu Tong gave him three words: "Demon Seed, Mortal Realm, Teleportation Array".
This Nascent Soul cultivator transmitted three words to all Nascent Soul cultivators.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
They understood where their misdeeds came from.
Indeed, they made a mistake.
They should have tried to use the teleporter to go to the mortal realm to stop the demonic seed, instead of destroying the teleportation array and annihilating the entire mortal realm.
They are accomplices in the demonic destruction of the world!
But what can they do now that it's already done?
They could not see the future, and several Nascent Soul cultivators immediately shattered their Dao hearts.
Some are quite audacious, unafraid of karmic retribution.
As a result, a peak Nascent Soul cultivator's choice to undergo tribulation attracted the Purple Heaven Lightning Tribulation, the intensity of which shocked everyone who witnessed it.
That person, naturally, had not read about the tribulation lightning and dissipated within it.
After that, those Nascent Soul stage experts truly confirmed Liu Tong's words.
Unaware that the mortal realm was still fine because of Liu Dong, they developed inner demons.
After that, these Nascent Soul cultivators fell one after another, and the power structure in the cultivation world was reshuffled.
Zhang Qingqing and Liu Dong ignored the power struggles between these factions and traveled around on adventures, during which Zhang Qingqing gained many opportunities.
With Liu Qiu's guidance, Zhang Qingqing unknowingly reached the Tribulation Transcending stage.
He became one of only three peak experts in the cultivation world.
Afterwards, Zhang Qingqing successfully overcame her tribulation, becoming the only ascendant in nearly ten thousand years.
By this time, Liu Pei had already passed away.
His son, still alive, shook his head and sighed upon hearing the news of Zhang Qingqing's ascension, lamenting that his father had squandered a golden opportunity.
After sending Zhang Qingqing to ascend to immortality, Liu Dong left this world.
He took away Zhang Qingqing's spatial magic item.
This magical artifact was forged from fragments of Mount Buzhou. (End of Chapter)
