"Big brother!"

In the cries of Zhang Kui and the others, Wang Songhe’s body unexpectedly fell straight down.

He only said half of his words, his eyes still open, but he had no breath.

Qiao Mu frowned and opened his eyes, seeing a blurry soul that looked exactly like Wang Songhe flying out of his body, drifting into the distance in the night sky.

Qiao Mu flashed his figure and leaped into the air to reach out his hand.

However, his grab was in vain as the blurry soul of Wang Songhe passed through his fingertips like trying to catch the moon in the water.

"True strength, activate." Qiao Mu didn’t stop and reached out his hand again.

A pale and thick aura surrounded his whole body, flowing out and turning into invisible pressure sweeping in all directions.

True strength is a tangible substance born from the fusion of energy and spirit. Qiao Mu was able to use his powerful True strength to kill the Nascent Soul of an Immortal Gate real person. So, dealing with the detached soul of Wang Songhe shouldn’t be a problem.

The essence of True Strength combines with the "divine" of martial artists, which can hurt people’s hearts and minds.

As soon as his True Strength emerged, Wang Songhe’s soul floated out like ice under the scorching sun, starting to blur and distort…

"Huh?" Qiao Mu suddenly stopped, stepping on nothingness beneath his feet, abruptly stopping the figure that was about to pounce in mid-air, briefly hovering in the air.

With these two delays, Wang Songhe’s soul had already risen and flown towards a distant direction.

"To move or not to move, is it a retaliation like thunder?" Qiao Mu squinted his eyes.

No wonder after Wang Songhe, the South King turned against them, Elder Jiuyang and Elder Tianxing didn’t even look at him, their attention focused on Qiao Mu who was demolishing the mountain and temple.

They didn’t forget Wang Songhe, they just didn’t care.

As the Medicine Man of Xuantian Sect, Wang Songhe’s cultivation method is not the orthodox Immortal Gate method. It seemed to progress rapidly. Under the training of Xuantian Sect, he quickly broke through to the Golden Core Stage in a short time, but it actually had huge flaws and hidden dangers, not fully inherited.

Looking at it now.

This is the cost of Wang Songhe cultivating his Golden Core.

Qiao Mu fell from the sky, his toes touching the ground, looking at his own hands.

The True strength swirling around his fists retracted, returning to calmness.

Qiao Mu, who was over two thousand four hundred years old, had an overwhelming True strength.

If he were to throw a punch, the golden core cultivator would be turned into a pile of mud along with their body and soul.

This level of power was too fierce for Wang Songhe’s out-of-body soul, just nearing it caused some damage to his soul.

Therefore, Qiao Mu could only hold back.

He was at a loss, as he only had experience in killing cultivators, and he was not prepared at that moment.

At this time, the mountain bandits Zhang Kui and others were carrying Wang Songhe’s body and running out.

"Senior Qiao, our eldest brother…lost his breath." Bandit Zhang Kui’s eyes widened as he spoke in a daze.

"It must have been the Xuantian Sect," Qiao Mu sighed.

With limited knowledge of immortal cultivation, he was temporarily at a loss, so he used the Spiritual Sound Conducting Technique to communicate with old man Li Changshi from Peach Blossom Villa from a distance.

Li Changshi was the only Foundation Building Stage cultivator on Qiao Mu’s side. His immortal cultivation lineage came from the Great Dao Sect techniques plundered from within the Hundred-mile Desert.

"Wang Songhe is a golden core cultivator. While immortal cultivation emphasizes the soul, the physical body of a golden core cultivator naturally differs from an ordinary body," Li Changshi explained.

"For a soul to leave the body is a sure path to death for ordinary people, but for Wang Songhe, it can buy some time."

"In other words, as long as we can find Wang Songhe’s soul and return him to his body, the problem shouldn’t be too big," Qiao Mu gazed up into the depths of the night sky.

However, Li Changshi opposite remained silent.

Although he was within the villa, he was also aware of the recent happenings in Nan Province.

"Senior Qiao, this is the long-planned Thunder Counterattack of the Immortal Gate Xuantian Sect, it seems not so simple," guessed Li Changshi.

"Perhaps, when Wang Songhe’s spirit left his body, it was just a trap,"

"A trap? I get it, if we follow his spirit, we might find the leader of Xuantian Sect," Qiao Mu suddenly understood.

Li Changshi: …

That’s the way it is, indeed.

But isn’t following the enemy’s trap like walking straight into a trap?

"This is fighting fire with fire!" Qiao Mu leaped and followed Wang Songhe’s spirit from afar.

"Senior Qiao, that direction, I’m afraid it leads to… Qingming Mountain Range," bandit Zhang Kui furrowed his brow, warning.

Qingming Mountain Range?

The place called Qiao Mu is not unfamiliar. In fact, deep in the Qingming Mountain range, there lies the Xuantian Sect’s sect.

The former Emperor Yonghe worshipped the gods in a temple on the outskirts of the Qingming Mountain range.

"Qingming Mountain range… Qingming Valley, perhaps it’s there too?" Qiao Mu suddenly remembered Wang Songhe’s unfinished sentence.

As he gradually figured it out, he leaped and followed behind Wang Songhe, flying far away.

…………

The night was dark, the full moon hung high in the sky, and a faint moonlight enveloped everything.

Only the sounds of insects in the mountain forest, along with the wind passing through the trees, could be heard.

Qiao Mu moved swiftly in the moonlight, then he leaped onto a tree branch, scanning in all directions and listening attentively.

A vague spiritual entity flashed in the distance and drifted away with the wind.

Besides Wang Songhe, there were other blurry spirit bodies floating in the same direction.

However, these other spirit bodies were just a blur, nowhere near as clear and lively as the golden core cultivator Wang Songhe.

"Are these other Medicine Men?"

Qiao Mu had a sudden feeling and looked in a direction.

Suddenly, several rainbow lights broke through the sky, also chasing after those out-of-body souls.

"Another cultivator?"

Qiao Mu stood on top of a tree, drew out the King Qin Sword, and unleashed his True strength towards the sky with a slash.

A silver-white sword aura diagonally soared up into the sky, tearing through the vast air.

Qiao Mu sheathed his sword and stood still.

But he saw two rainbow lights falling from the sky, avoiding the sword light that shot up, and landing in front of him.

After clearly seeing the newcomer’s face, he was a little surprised.

The person in front was a middle-aged woman with a round figure who looked like a female Taoist.

She originally looked okay, but after seeing Qiao Mu’s face, her expression noticeably changed.

"You… are a member of the Qiao family who practices martial arts among ordinary people?" the chubby Taoist asked absentmindedly.

The other person made Qiao Mu feel a little dazed.

This was a young female cultivator, with exquisite features and a beautiful face, but her eyes remained tightly closed without opening.

"Returning to Nan Province this time, it seems I am meeting old acquaintances everywhere," Qiao Mu sighed inwardly.

This female cultivator with closed eyes was Qiao Canxue, the blind woman who had led him into martial arts and taught him the Long Life Fist and Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method in Yan City, Nan Province.

Two years had passed since they last met.

Qiao Canxue looked the same as before, but she had lost her youthful innocence. Now she seemed like a refined female cultivator.

The plump nun beside Qiao Canxue was her master, Lingling Taoist Priest.

Back when he was in Zhong Province, Qiao Mu had briefly met these two individuals under the name "Qiao Shui."

During Qiao Mu’s vacation in Zhong Province Imperial Capital, he learned about the past of the Nineteen Immortal Gates from Qiao Canxue and Lingling Taoist Priest.

Strictly speaking, Qiao Canxue was actually the original member of the Qiao family.

However, the Qiao Family in Heyang City had been wiped out, and the only survivor couldn’t practice martial arts or cultivate Dao anymore. This once prestigious family had vanished into dust.

"Indeed, I am a Qiao family member, my name is… Qiao Shuangxin," Qiao Mu spoke up.

"I see," Lingling Taoist Priest, the plump nun, said with lingering fear in her heart.

Just now, a sudden flash of sword scared her, clearly not a magical spell, but its power still made her nervous. She had to stop and not make any moves in front of Qiao Mu.

Lingling Taoist Priest is a descendant of the ancient Ten Realms Immortal Gate, officially recognized as the sect leader and head of Earth Origin Temple.

Despite using many treasures left behind by the Immortal Gate and Earth Origin Temple, her skills in magic only managed to reach a basic level. She couldn’t progress further.

When she saw a member of the Qiao family again, she felt a deep sense of fear.

"It’s no use avoiding it… Jiu Province may be vast, but there is no place left untouched by chaos…"

Earth Origin Temple was originally in Nan Province.

After the incident with Emperor Yonghe, Lingling Taoist Priest and her disciples fled overnight to Zhong Province.

Later, in the Imperial Capital of Zhong Province, they encountered "Qiao Shui," causing Qiao Canxue’s eyes to bleed. Lingling Taoist Priest was afraid and didn’t want Qiao Canxue to have any connection with the Qiao family member.

During these two years, she traveled around Jiu Province, searching desperately for a peaceful place for cultivation, eventually returning to Nan Province.

Who would have thought that while trying to find the Medicine Man’s spirit in the astral realm tonight, Lingling Taoist Priest ran into a member of the Qiao family, leaving her feeling amazed.

"Qiao Shuangxin?" Qiao Canxue repeated the name and turned to face Qiao Mu.

She tried to open her eyelids gently, and could see her long eyelashes fluttering slightly, but even after fluttering for a while, her eyes remained closed.

"Your eyes.." Lingling Taoist Priest wanted to say something, but after looking closely for a few moments, she became quite surprised.

It seemed that Qiao Canxue’s eyes were not the problem and couldn’t open.

Was she struggling between opening and not opening her eyes?

After trying for a while, Qiao Canxue’s forehead was slightly sweaty, but her eyes still did not open…

Finally, she lowered her head, stopped trying, and just called out, "Senior Qiao."

Qiao Mu stayed silent.

"Don’t try anymore," whispered Lingling Taoist Priest, looking at Qiao Mu.

"The Qiao family in Jiu Province is well-respected, so why stop us from chasing after the Medicine Man’s spiritual soul?"

Qiao Mu thought to himself that he didn’t see clearly earlier, he just casually blocked with a sword… He didn’t mention this, but simply said:

"You’ve arrived at a good time."

"Do you know the method to save the Xuantian Sect Medicine Man?"

At Peach Blossom Villa, there was only Li Changshi, a beginner cultivator, with limited skills and knowledge.

Lingling Taoist Priest and Qiao Canxue, one being a powerful Nascent Soul Immortal, and the other…

Huh?

Qiao Mu squinted slightly.

Comparing Qiao Canxue’s cultivation with Wang Songhe’s, it seems that Qiao Canxue has reached the Golden Core Stage just like him.

So, here comes the question.

Two years ago, Qiao Canxue just joined the Immortal Gate, which means she has been practicing cultivation for a shorter time compared to Wang Songhe.

But now, after two years, how did she also reach the Golden Core Stage?

Wang Songhe, as the Medicine Man of the Immortal Gate, made rapid progress in cultivation at a great cost, sacrificing for others.

So, why did Qiao Canxue progress in cultivation in such an extraordinary way?

This surpasses the usual level of cultivating talent, something seems off.

Lingling Taoist Priest spoke up, "The cultivation method of the Medicine Man is inherently flawed and cannot be saved."

"If you are asking about how to save the soul of a Medicine Man who has left the body, there might be a way."

"But first, we have to follow these spirits and go to the Medicinal Valley in Xuantian Sect."

"Otherwise, even if we temporarily capture these wandering spirits, can we really keep them forever?"

Qiao Mu nodded in agreement.

"Are you also here to save the Medicine Man?" Qiao Mu looked slightly surprised.

After all, this Lingling Taoist Priest is also a cultivator in the path of immortality.

According to her previous words, she claimed to practice an ancient method of a sect with ten realms, not taking advantage of ordinary people.

But to say that they are great people actively saving ordinary people, it may not be true.

At this moment, Qiao Canxue interjected, "We are not here to save the Medicine Man, we just want to use him to find that Medicinal Valley in Xuantian Sect."

She did not open her eyes to look at Qiao Mu, so to her, the elder of the Qiao family standing in front of her was a stranger named "Qiao Shuangxin," speaking with a hint of restraint.

She continued, "To be honest, within my ‘Earth Origin Temple’, there’s a senior sister who left our sect and joined the Xuantian Sect. She should be in the Qingming Valley Medicinal Valley now."

Lingling Taoist Priest frowned at Qiao Canxue, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Qiao Canxue said, "We are here for her."

"Master. Our ‘Earth Origin Temple’ is no longer the same as before, how can we compete with the Xuantian Sect?"

"If we can work together with… with Senior Qiao Shuangxin, supporting each other, perhaps this matter would be more appropriate, with a greater chance of success."

Lingling Taoist Priest opened her mouth to argue at first, but ended up letting out a soft sigh.

"You’re right, but…"

"Forget it, no ‘buts’."

Even Qiao Mu, a martial artist, could see that Qiao Canxue’s progress in cultivation was exceptionally fast – how could she not see it herself?

Now this so-called "Earth Origin Temple" only has a big name left.

The remaining heavenly materials and earthly treasures from the past are just enough for her to cultivate to the primordial stage of Nascent Soul.

And a figure like Qiao Canxue… even if placed among the Nine Heavenly Immortal Gates that dominate Jiu Province today, would also be revered.

These two master and disciple, though they seem to have a gap in their cultivation levels, Qiao Canxue’s opinion is something she has to seriously consider.

After all…

Whether the Earth Origin Temple can continue to exist and pass down in the future depends on Qiao Canxue, not on her, a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Then let’s go together."

"This time heading west to the Qingming Mountain Range, we must be careful, as it’s right at the foot of the Xuantian Sect…" Lingling Taoist Priest cautioned.

"By the way, we must also be wary of the Xuantian Sect’s… diversion tactics," Qiao Canxue reminded in a low voice.

Luring the tiger away from the mountain?

Qiao Mu smiled, he turned to look at Qiao Canxue, and said slowly:

"Luring the tiger away from the mountain, what’s the use? We, the Qiao family, have more than just me alone."

Qiao Canxue "gazed" quietly at his face, seemingly momentarily stunned.
