Colorful lanterns were hung high with bright red candles on the walls!
Under the night sky, a beauty wearing a white monastic robe came from the cold wind. Leaves were falling from the sky. Even though it was not the season for them to fall, the leaves were falling for her.
The air seemed to be frozen, and the bodies of all the cultivators were frozen. Even their heartbeats and breathing slowed down. All eyes were fixated on the supreme beauty outside the door.
This was the legendary Evil Woman with hands stained with blood?
No one would think that this beautiful and elegant woman before them was an evil woman who massacred millions of lives. Her white monastic robe was spotless like a lily on a rainy day. Her black hair was tied up by a jade hairpin, and there was no trace of murderous intent on her body.
Gradually, she entered the Supreme Beauty Pavilion and brushed past Feng Feiyun's side. Then, she sat on an ebony dragon carved chair at the center of the lobby and didn't say a word.
She seemed to have forgotten about Feng Feiyun and essentially didn't leave any memories in her mind. There was not even a glimmer of light in her eyes.
Even though she didn't say anything, no one here dared to say anything, including the dao protector of the Qin Clan, Young Noble Flawless, and the old woman on the seventh floor. Everyone held their breaths out of fear that they would disturb this legendary evil woman.
Even though no one said that she was the Evil Woman, when she sat in the middle of the lobby, everyone already considered her to be the Evil Woman. No one dared to doubt her.
Silence. After Xiao Nuolan entered the Supreme Beauty Pavilion, the originally noisy place in Fire Beacon City became the quietest place. It was so quiet that one could hear the hawkers on the street outside.
No one even dared to move their feet.
Feng Feiyun was standing in the middle of the lobby and was the closest to Xiao Nuolan. Even though he wasn't trembling like the other cultivators, he still couldn't remain calm.
However, in the eyes of all the cultivators here, he was the calmest one. His backer had finally arrived, and those who offended him would not have a good ending tonight.
The one with the most frightening expression was the dao protector of the Qin Clan. His heart was beating extremely fast and his legs weren't listening to him. In the end, he spoke with a trembling voice: "Your Excellency, earlier was truly a misunderstanding. Our Qin Clan had no intention of offending you."
Xiao Nuolan glanced at him indifferently, then retracted her gaze and said, "Hand it over!"
Everyone was confused by her words. What was it? Was she looking for something?
While everyone was still in a daze, her hand suddenly reached out and grabbed the neck of Nalan Xuejian who was hiding in the private room. However, Monk Jiu Rou also made his move at this time. He unleashed a golden palm seal that slammed into Xiao Nuolan's sleeve.
"Bang!"
Even though Monk Jiu Rou and Xiao Nuolan acted at almost the same time, they were still half a step too slow. Nalan Xuejian was captured by her.
Earlier, when Nalan Xuejian used the Buddhist Jade Bead to fight against Qin Zhan, it leaked its aura. This was why Xiao Nuolan was able to find this place.
"Thump thump thump!" The sound of the Buddhist staff appeared!
Monk Jiu Rou broke through the door of the private room and rushed out with his Invincible Buddhist Staff. Both his body and the staff were wrapped in a golden light as he brazenly attacked Xiao Nuolan.
This Monk Jiu Rou was extremely ferocious and was not much weaker than Xiao Nuolan. His cultivation was frighteningly high.
In the blink of an eye, he had unleashed more than two hundred moves and finally took Nalan Xuejian from Xiao Nuolan's hands. However, he paid a certain price. A drop of blood spilled out from his sturdy arm; it was cut by Xiao Nuolan's fingertip.
Even though the wound disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye and not even a scar remained, it was clear that he had suffered a loss in Xiao Nuolan's hands earlier.
However, he was able to take back Nalan Xuejian, so this confrontation could barely be considered a draw.
Xiao Nuolan was still calmly sitting on the chair with a calm and indifferent gaze. She stared at the direction of Monk Jiu Rou and Nalan Xuejian and gently opened her red lips to say: "Give me the Buddhist Jade Bead."
So she came for the Buddhist Jade Bead. Feng Feiyun had a bad premonition. The Buddhist Jade Bead was on Nalan Xuejian. If she really wanted to take it, then Nalan Xuejian would be in danger. Even with Monk Jiu Rou's protection, she would not be able to escape from Xiao Nuolan's evil hands.
When experts of their level fought, the most they could do was to ensure that they would not be defeated. They simply could not protect the people next to them.
Monk Jiu Rou's entire body was emitting a golden light. With one hand holding the Invincible Buddhist Staff and the other holding Nalan Xuejian's hand, he solemnly said: "Amitabha Buddha, Benefactor Xiao has already undergone the fourth Corpse Transformation and reversed life and death. Why is the evil energy on your body still so heavy? This shouldn't be the case, ah!"
A completely dead person naturally could not be revived. This was the law of the heaven and earth. The so-called reversal of life and death was to let the dead experience Corpse Transformation, and from there, they would be able to transform.
The first Corpse Transformation would allow one to crawl out of the grave and become a walking corpse!
The second Corpse Transformation would allow one's body to not decay and become indestructible!
The third Corpse Transformation would give birth to a wisp of intelligence and their battle prowess would be comparable to Ju Qing!
And the fourth Corpse Transformation would allow one to reverse life and death. Their bones would regrow flesh and their memories would be restored, and they would be no different from a living person. Xiao Nuolan was currently in this realm.
She had already embarked on a different path compared to other cultivators. Right now, she was at the fourth Corpse Transformation, and in the future, there would be a fifth Corpse Transformation, a sixth Corpse Transformation … Even to the legendary ninth Corpse Transformation of the undying.
The ancient deified records stated that there was once an eighth Corpse Transformation Ancestral Devil that tore an ancient immortal to shreds. The immortal's blood spilled into the mortal world and formed nine blood lakes. Even now, one could still hear the anguished cries of the ancient immortals above the lakes.
However, this was only a record in the deified records. The later generations had never seen an ancient immortal's blood lake, so they only treated it as an absurd story made up by the predecessors.
However, Xiao Nuolan was already this terrifying at the fourth Corpse Transformation. If there really was an eighth Corpse Transformation Ancestral Devil in this world, then it could truly slay immortals.
Even though Xiao Nuolan was human, she couldn't be considered a human anymore. She was classified into another category: Yin World's Three Evils, Corpse Evil.
Of course, "Yang World's Three Strange, Yin World's Three Evils" was a very strange term in the cultivation world. Only Treasure Seeking Masters that roamed the border would have dealings with them. Under normal circumstances, the Yang World's Three Evils and Yin World's Three Strange would stay in the Yang World, Yin World, or some special narrow spaces.
This was the first time a Corpse Evil like Xiao Nuolan's appeared in the Godly Jin Dynasty.
Yang World's Three Strange: Void Strange, Abnormality Strange, Formless Strange.
Yin World's Three Strange: Corpse Evil, Ghost Evil, God Evil.
This thought flashed through Feng Feiyun's mind. Suddenly, many of the questions that he had before suddenly became clear. It was as if he was suddenly enlightened, and many things that had happened recently became clear.
Xiao Nuolan wanted to take the Buddhist Jade Bead because she wanted to borrow the pure buddhist energy inside to undergo her fifth Corpse Transformation. In her eyes, slaughtering the millions of existences in the Grand Southern Prefecture to accumulate enough blood energy for her Corpse Transformation was just as important as taking the Buddhist Jade Bead.
Everything else was secondary, only cultivation was the most important thing. Persevering with an indomitable dao heart, whether it was killing people or saving people, different daos had different paths.
She wanted to reach the peak of the immortal path, but many people didn't want her to undergo her fifth Corpse Transformation and take the Primordial Dao Fruit, such as the Yang World Monarch and the Yin World Mother.
