Twin Dimension Yin-Yang Mirror: Attaining immortality through the martial path-Chapter 802 - 621: Hong Lian Devil Shadow + - 622: Karma Severing Blade_2

Chapter 802: Chapter 621: Hong Lian Devil Shadow + Chapter 622: Karma Severing Blade_2

It seemed as though Zhou Ping’an had brought two hundred soldiers here not to cause trouble but as if he were here for a consultation.

"You shouldn’t have come."

The elder sighed softly, lifting his head, his expression somewhere between a smile and a sneer.

"And yet, here I am."

Zhou Ping’an scoffed, his toe lightly touching the ground. The entire Medicine Hall trembled slightly, his presence overwhelming like an abyssal sea, rising and encompassing the entirety of the Medicine Hall and even the Three Bridge Ancestor Master Association’s quarters behind.

He truly couldn’t comprehend how, given the circumstances, the other party could still have some hidden card to turn the tide.

"To be honest, this old man initially had no confidence in facing General Zhou head-on, but you truly shouldn’t have stepped into my Chang Chun Inn. Once you enter this door, don’t ask about the past."

The elder chuckled sinisterly as illusory flames suddenly ignited in all directions.

The flames radiated a crimson hue, shooting several zhang high, spiraling into lotus shapes as they emerged. Strangely, they didn’t harm the building in the slightest but burned directly into the hearts and minds of people.

"Ah... the pain..."

Yu Changsheng and Su Youxian, initially curious and trailing behind, were caught off-guard by the abrupt eruption of flames.

The two channeled their True Yuan, causing vibrations in the air, attempting to isolate the flames, only to discover that the attack was intangible and directly scorched their souls.

An unbearable wave of pain surged into their hearts.

Even these True Martial Realm masters reacted this way, let alone the two hundred trusted aides Zhou Ping’an had brought. As the flames spread, everyone was left defenseless, their bodies weak, expressions vacant.

Swept by the remnants of the fire’s aftermath, they grew utterly drained and collapsed helplessly to the ground.

"Ha-ha, this fire does not judge strength but only asks about virtue and sin. You are born guilty; the Karmic Fire can determine life and death, purify your sins, and perhaps in your next life, you’ll reborn into better circumstances."

The elder’s refined face revealed a hint of malice as he threw his head back and laughed.

Chapter 622: The Soul-Severing Blade

"Burning karma without burning flesh, severing souls without severing the body."

Zhou Ping’an clicked his tongue in admiration. "The Red Lotus Karmic Fire, used like this... no wonder you are so bold."

He felt the flames burning on his body, yet all he sensed was a warm comfort, akin to the sun shining upon him during a cold winter afternoon, making him utterly relaxed. In a word: comfortable.

Zhou Ping’an waved his hand gently, sending a breeze across. Yu Changsheng and Su Youxian, who had been following closely, along with dozens of soldiers engulfed by the flames, were suddenly swept away by the gust, thrown over ten zhang backward, beyond the fiery domain of the Chang Chun Inn’s Karmic Fire Blood Flame.

He himself, however, did not move a single step, instead standing at the entrance of the medicine hall with an expression of apparent enjoyment.

"You, how is this...?"

The elder laughed, only to feel that something was off.

He realized Zhou Ping’an remained entirely unaffected, standing there leisurely as the Karmic Fire Divine Flame grew brighter, yet seemed to have no effect whatsoever.

No, it was having an effect. freewёbnoνel.com

As the flames burned, Zhou Ping’an’s complexion looked increasingly radiant, his eyes glimmering like starlight, his spirit lifting higher and brighter.

Even a blind person could tell he was thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Doesn’t sit right, does it? I won’t be telling you why."

Zhou Ping’an smirked. "Let me see what kind of demon or ghost you truly are disguised as."

He didn’t bother drawing his blade. His form blurred and, in the blink of an eye, he was before the elder, slamming his palm down.

Winds surged, clouds churned, and countless flames converged into the center of his palm, vanishing like a whale swallowing water.

The pressure of the strike fragmented and detonated the air, akin to Mount Tai itself bearing down.

The elder’s face twisted in panic, attempting to retreat, only to discover that the enormous, mountainous palm pressing down created an irresistible suction force, pulling him closer and rendering escape futile. His body leaned involuntarily toward the hand.

Smack...

The elder’s entire body shattered into smoke, crimson lotus petals fluttering to the ground, slowly burning into ash.

At the same time, within the hall, all the staff and physicians leapt into the air, scattering in all directions.

"Still trying to flee at this moment? How little respect you must have for me..."

Zhou Ping’an inhaled deeply.

The air currents reversed.

None could resist the pull, their forms drawn back by his breath.

The faint glint of a blade flickered.

Szz...

Over a dozen figures froze mid-air, instantly split in two.

Before they even touched the ground, they had disintegrated into lotus petals dancing through the air, swiftly burning and reducing to ashes.

"So they were all fakes." Zhou Ping’an sneered coldly.

He was finally starting to grasp the true essence of this Chang Chun Inn.

It seemed that the fourteen physicians and staff members had actually all been impersonations by the same individual.

Utilizing puppet substitutes and shadow clones.

Similar to the Lotus Shadow Substitute Skill he had obtained from Saintess Yunling previously.

It was a supremely advanced mystical technique.

For the average person encountering it—even in the True Martial Realm—it would undoubtedly lead to severe suffering, if not death.

After all, the presence of Karmic Fire Blood Flame was simply too ferocious.

Zhou Ping’an pinched between his fingers a lump of flame-like gel, solid and substantial, the residue he’d absorbed and gathered with his breath.

Giving it some thought, he opened his mouth and swallowed it whole.

The craving emanating from his soul assured him that this substance was likely an extraordinary tonic.

Indeed, as the flame entered his mouth, it transformed into a surge of intense warmth, flooding into his Sea of Consciousness.

A previously fist-sized Red Lotus Karmic Fire blossoming within his mind suddenly doubled in size, the flames growing fiercer and more intense.

’Just consuming a single Karmic Fire Divine Flame is equivalent to ten years of painstaking cultivation and meditation.’

Zhou Ping’an thought in astonished delight.

Thrilled beyond measure.

In his mind, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire had been slowly nurtured through years of diligent practice using the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Visualization Method.

Its versatility was endless.

Alongside the flame painstakingly cultivated through his efforts, there was also the Red Lotus he had absorbed after Saintess Yunling’s demise, now fused into one entity.
