Chapter 197: Chapter 142: Descent of the Evil God
“Demon Path secret technique?”
Su Ping saw the expression of the captured black-robed evil cultivator suddenly change.
And seemingly like a completely different person, he voiced his doubt.
Su Ping, of course, had no intention to kindly answer the query of a demon from the Demon Path.
At the same time, to prevent the possibility that the other party was deliberately stalling for time to deploy some Demon Path secret technique.
Su Ping chose to immediately increase the output of the fiery power in the hands of the Fire Knight.
He directly controlled the flames to burn the black-robed evil cultivator into ashes.
To ensure that whatever demon trick or ploy the elder had would die before it could even begin!
Afterward, from the scattered remains, he found the storage bag left by the evil cultivator.
The Fire Knight then got back up and set out towards the middle of the mountain.
Without the black-robed evil cultivator, the journey became much quieter, and no evil spirits suddenly emerged to attack the Fire Knight anymore.
Upon reaching the middle of the mountain, Su Ping discovered that this area was likely the residence of the cultivators from the Bai family of the Golden Spring.
Although, due to the Blood Sacrifice Array, no corpses were in sight.
He could still see many ownerless magic artifacts and storage bags quietly lying on the ground amidst the rubble.
Su Ping, being kind-hearted, couldn’t bear to see these relics scattered on the ground.
He waved his hand and, with a suction motion, collected them all into his possession.
When a deafening explosion, as if half the mountain top had been flattened, erupted.
The Fire Knight Elvin’s waist was already adorned with seventeen or eighteen storage bags.
And as the ground shook and the earth split open.
Su Ping discovered an underground chamber, where he found what seemed to be the secret prayer room of the black-robed evil cultivator.
Inside was a wooden carving of an evil god with a twisted face and a body covered in hands, feet, and eyes, lying on its side.
Additionally, in a nearby corner, there were dozens of tomes written in
Immortal Text about the classics of the Demon Path.
It was evident that the black-robed evil cultivator was also a studious person.
After praying to the evil god in this chamber, he remembered to sit down and read to improve his knowledge.
“Hmm?”
As Su Ping, who had collected all the Demon Path-related books into the storage bag with the intention to return and critique them, felt an anomaly and soon discovered that an immense amount of Power of Faith was stored inside the evil god wooden carving!
This Power of Faith seemed to have been activated at this moment.
It burst out from the evil god wooden carving and then rushed into the giant rhinoceros shadow atop the mountain peak.
It seemed to act as some sort of booster, making the aura of that shadowy rhinoceros swell up in an instant.
“Storing Power of Faith, using Power of Faith, this should be counted as a secret technique of the Incense Fire Path, right? Does the Demon Path also know this technique?”
The Fire Knight suddenly turned his head towards the evil god wooden carving, his eyes flickering with curious light.
Then, the Fire Knight Elvin reached out with his right hand and firmly grasped the evil god wooden carving’s face.
Hum!
In that instant, the evil god wooden carving suddenly trembled all over, and a wave of evil thoughts mixed with the despairing cries of thousands rushed at him.
It seemed formidable.
But under the Fire Knight’s Unyielding Will trait, it was like an egg against a steel plate.
A light splat and then it went silent.
This caused the evil god wooden carving to crack and splinter all over its body.
It also made the black-haired clan chief, who was standing atop the black rhinoceros in the sky, suddenly scream in agony.
The foundation establishment cultivators besieging him flashed looks of puzzlement, even suspecting a feint.
In the agonizing black-haired clan chief’s mind, the vision from the evil god statue appeared.
Then he saw a handsome red-haired man grabbing his face with a large hand, and he was forcefully lifted up and stashed into a storage bag!
Mixing together with all manner of miscellaneous items in the bag.
“This is desecration!”
The black-haired clan chief roared in his mind, maneuvering the black rhinoceros the size of a small hill to charge towards the mountain waist.
The cultivators sieging him, thinking he wanted to escape, refused to let him go and unleashed their ultimate moves to forcibly hold him and the beast back.
This infuriated the already maddened mind of the black-haired clan chief, and the intensity of the fierce battle surged again, causing the besieging cultivators to inwardly curse their luck.
A fight to the death raged at the mountain peak.
While the Fire Knight assisted in dealing with the relics and eliminating the evil spirits that had been born from the evil qi and evil techniques.
And as the Fire Knight went further into the higher residential area of the Bai family cultivators.
Su Ping found that the chambers here were actually hiding several evil god statues of different shapes.
It turns out the Bai family had not just been infiltrated by one evil cultivator, but several factions!
However, it seems that only one faction was successful in the end, while the evil cultivators who were slow to act were mostly likely sacrificed in the Blood Sacrifice.
Nevertheless, some of these statues and some items of the evil cultivators were still left behind.
Su Ping didn’t worry about whether they were of use or not, he decided to take them all along and stuffed them into his storage bag.

Even going so far as to specifically clear out a large storage bag to store these items of the evil cultivators.
“Eh?”
“Are there actually survivors here?”
The Fire Knight emerged from a chamber, searching for the next target, when, guided by the intuition of a second-tier array master, he suddenly discovered a modest wooden attic that had a skillfully deployed Shielding Array.
Then, it seemed that a few people managed to escape the Blood Sacrifice because of this array.
Out of curiosity, Su Ping guided the Fire Knight closer.
Realizing they had been discovered by the red-haired foundation establishment cultivator,
The attic proactively opened its wooden door, after which a pregnant female cultivator stepped out holding hands with a boy and a girl, her lips tightly pressed together.
In a situation of urgency, neither side wasted words on formalities.
Su Ping learned that this female cultivator, who was at the late period of qi cultivation, was the cherished wife newly wedded by a Supreme Elder of the Bai family of the Golden Spring.
The boy and the girl behind her were also direct descendants of the Supreme Elder.
They had survived thanks to the life-saving trump card given by the Supreme Elder, and had detected something amiss early on.
Then Su Ping refused the direct request to take them away.
And quickly reached a new consensus.
After obtaining the map of the Golden Spring Bai Family from this female cultivator.
Su Ping turned around to face the way he came, took a deep breath, and then.
With both hands gripping the fine iron greatsword, he lifted it high and charged for dozens of seconds before fiercely slashing down the mountain.
Instantly!
The cultivators besieging from afar were astonished to find that a blinding red light burst out from the mountainside of the Bai Family!
Then, as if a fire dragon emerged from the earth, it charged from the mountainside all the way to the foot of the mountain.
Along the way, both the buildings and the blood on the ground were ignited and purified by this fire dragon.
At least for this moment, an abruptly purified path appeared from the mountainside all the way down.
Seeing this scene, the female cultivator did not hesitate. After secretly thanking and sharing a secret with the Fire Knight.
She then summoned a small wooden boat, carrying the two children and turning into a gray light, dashing down the path cleared by the fire, out of the Mountain Gate.
“Someone is coming out!”
“There are still survivors in the Golden Spring Bai Family!”
“Didn’t you notice something strange about the fire from that sword strike just now?”
“This is a ground for a blood sacrifice. What kind of fire can purify evil qi so quickly, even preventing the surrounding evil qi from encroaching for a short time?”
“Even the monks from the Great Golden Light Temple don’t have such a secret technique to restrain evil qi, do they?”
“Of course, not, otherwise why bother to slowly grind away evil spirits every time they encounter one, then seal them into magic artifacts to suppress for thousands of years?”
On the mountainside.
Su Ping turned his gaze toward a spot near the mountain’s peak.
Through the female cultivator’s secret message, the treasure vault of the Golden Spring Bai Family was there.
Although there might be deceit or dangers galore.
But Su Ping was still very bold now.
As a Memory Illusion, Su Ping no longer feared even death!
Looking at the ominous dark red in the sky seems to be getting more intense.
The Fire Knight’s instincts also faintly felt a hint of unease.
Su Ping did not plan to waste time and headed straight for the vault.
Minutes later.
With his knowledge as an array master, Su Ping quickly found the entrance to the vault, and directly used the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist with the physical prowess of the Fire Knight.
With just one punch, he violently breached the protective formation of the vault.
A physical breach naturally triggered the vault’s alarm.
But where were there any living people or guardian spirit artifacts in the Golden Spring Bai Family to trouble Su Ping now?
After swinging his greatsword to destroy a ten-meter-long puppet snake guarding the vault.
Su Ping saw the items segregated and placed in the underground vault of the Golden Spring Bai Family.
It wasn’t filled with the anticipated glittering golden and silver mountains.
Perhaps a part had been moved earlier, and a lot of the reserves had been used in recent times for formations and spiritual beasts.
Most areas of the vault were empty.
Only seven or eight three-tiered cabinets still held goods, one of which had a dozen mid-grade spirit stones and over ten thousand ordinary spirit stones.
Another cabinet contained over a hundred vials of various pills.
The remaining cabinets were stacked with scrolls of books.
Su Ping swept over them with his divine sense as the Fire Knight and found that these books were mostly left behind by successive Clan Leaders and Supreme Elders of the Golden Spring Bai Family.
Aside from personal insights, they recorded major family events and post-event analysis.
They seemed to be items only the Clan Leader or Supreme Elder were qualified to view.
“Hmm, these are divine power training methods and Divine Power Seeds?”
Checking the end of the cabinet, Su Ping discovered that a few of the scrolls at the bottom were actually cleverly designed boxes that could shield one’s presence.
Inside the boxes were various divine power training methods and matching Divine Power Seeds.
Among them was a suspect Li Water Ape Divine Power Seed which the black-haired Clan Chief at the peak seemed to have cultivated, allowing him to attack with body hair as one.
“This must be the most important inheritance item of the Golden Spring Bai Family.”
“But if I don’t take it, others will, and it might even be completely lost in the upcoming disaster.”
“Preserving the divine power inheritance also counts as an act of boundless merit!”
Su Ping took away everything valuable in the vault.
Coming out satisfied.
He looked up to see that the battle at the peak had already reached a fever pitch.
But for now, the Righteous Path had the upper hand.
After all, they outnumbered the enemy and had both an Immortal Boat and golden-armored puppets.
No matter how strong the red-backed giant rhinoceros was nor how much it was supported by evil qi, it too had its limits.
Especially since the other side also had various evil-exorcising spiritual objects slowly starting to suppress.
Accompanied by a thunderbolt that fell on the red-backed rhinoceros, it was the first time the beast was knocked down and fell.
This battle against evil seemed to be about to end!
Then, the next second.
There was no follow-up attack on the downed beast from any Foundation Establishment cultivators or Immortal Boats.
Instead, they crazily turned into spirit light and retreated back to their Immortal Boats.
After that, those Immortal Boats turned around, attempting to flee the battlefield.
Outside the mountain, the onlooking cultivators also took in a breath of cold air and immediately turned to run.
Nobody dared to look back to take another glance at the anomaly at the peak.
The Fire Knight stared straight up at the peak of the mountain, staring at the anomaly that no one dared to see.
There, it seemed as if the dark red sky was suddenly torn in half, revealing a huge black fissure that occupied one third of the sky.
After that, inside the fissure, it seemed a gigantic eye appeared, peeking through the crack, looking this way!
