Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1305 Heavenly Jade
Inside the main hall, a dark aura gathered, illuminating the beams. The main seat was suspended in mid-air, and a woman sat below the platform, her hands forming a mudra. Golden talismans, resembling talismans, constantly swept past her, dancing in the turbulent mercury-colored light like tiny golden fish.

Li Quewan sat calmly within, methodically directing beams of golden light to emerge from the gaps in the hall and descend upon the outside world.

But amidst all this orderly change, a crisp sound could be heard:

"Click..."

The woman's expression changed slightly, and she flipped her hand to reveal the talisman hidden in her sleeve.

Li Jiangqian had planned to leave and return immediately, and had only just set off north when news came back. Li Quewan immediately made a judgment in his mind:
'Something's happened in the north…'

She frowned slightly.
'It was originally scheduled for four years, how come it's been moved up so much!'

But she had no worries at all. Her supernatural powers responded, interrupting the ever-changing golden talisman in the sky. The mercury light shattered, and her cinnabar-like supernatural powers suddenly retracted, pulling the azure cauldron outside the hall into her hand!
She clasped her hands together, suppressing the azure cauldron. A moment later, Master Chengqian quickly entered the hall, his expression slightly changed, looking quite frightened. He cupped his hands in greeting and said:
"This is!"

For the past three years, Chengqian has worked diligently and thought it had done a good job. Now, caught off guard by this unexpected turn of events, its first reaction is that it has messed up!
The man was instantly terrified and broke out in a cold sweat—the amount of resources and precious spiritual objects that the Li family had invested in Xuantao were so great that even if he were to dismantle Chengqian ten or more times, he might not be able to gather enough... He was utterly terrified!

Fortunately, Li Quewan merely shook his head solemnly.
"Something's happened in the north!"

Chengqian, on the contrary, breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relief at surviving a disaster. He quickly bowed and said:
"In that case... what arrangements should Su Yun make?"

Li Quewan was eager to witness the "Sun and Moon Shining Together" spectacle, so naturally he wanted to settle things first. Therefore, he solemnly pushed the green cauldron into his hands, took out two jade boxes, and said:
"Add more lead if there is too little, subtract less mercury if there is too much. The balance of Yin and Yang is the key to the elixir... I need not say more about the rest. The Yin and Li Fire elements here can be used to represent Yin and Yang. If Li Fire is inconvenient, use Bright Yang. In all things, prudence is the best policy. Do not be stingy. Leave it to the True Man!"

She had even prepared a backup plan in case Chengqian's cultivation was insufficient, and then bowed deeply, startling Chengqian, who quickly turned aside and waved his hand, saying:

"There's no need to continue refining it; just maintain it. Chengqian is, after all, a master of the complete alchemy technique. Although he doesn't have Miss's abilities, he is still aware of changes. As long as no one interferes, there will be no mistakes!"

Li Quewan's expression was solemn as he said:
"Uncle Tai... and all the colleagues are in the west. I am not on the lake. No matter what kind of supplies are to be allocated, they are all at your command at any time. If we are attacked from both sides, if necessary, you can have them abandon the west and retreat to the lake to defend it!"

Chengqian nodded solemnly, about to reach out to take it, but suddenly froze.

He looked up and suddenly saw someone in the main seat behind Li Quewan.

This person was dressed in black, with his black hair flowing freely. The light behind him dispersed and transformed into colorful light, resembling a screen. His face was resolute, exuding an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty. His eyes were golden, as if they were flickering white flames.

Chengqian knew who he was.

'King Wei...'

He simply sat there, and the entire hall was filled with an extremely eerie brightness, as if it were about to fill the pupils and tear everyone's eyes apart, and it was also filled with a fierce aura.

The golden gaze, like a ray of light in a dark room, swept across his face, instantly illuminating the face of this Master Quan Dan.

Li Zhouwei.

What left Chengqian's mind blank was not the strange appearance of the King of Wei, but the extreme light emanating from Li Zhouwei and the bright yang energy that seemed to tear the hall apart.

This clearly demonstrates another thing:

'Great Master!!'

The man was first stunned, then extremely shocked. Li Quewan also noticed this. She suddenly turned to the side and stood there, which startled Cheng Qian. He took a step back and knelt down on the ground like lightning.

"Meet the king!"

Even though Li Quewan had already suspected something, she couldn't help but feel extremely horrified. Her eyes were dry as she blinked, and tears welled up instantly. She also knelt down, exclaiming with joy:

"uncle!"

'Great Master! Uncle has passed through the Purple Mountain!'

Li Quewan was somewhat better off, but Cheng Qian behind him felt a chill run down his spine. In an instant, he understood everything and finally realized what it meant for the King of Wei to step over the purple robe:
'Dalneungcheon! '

Amidst their trembling voices, the doors of the main hall slammed shut in an instant, locked by the powerful Mingyang divine power, before the steady voice could be heard again:

"The Dalingchuan has been opened?"

Li Quewan bowed and reported:
"My elder brother went to the north to observe, and he has not returned yet. The fact that he crushed the jade talisman means that it is at least... about to be activated!"

'really. ’

It took Li Zhouwei two years to refine the 'Emperor's Observation Yuan' and only two hundred days to surpass the Purple Realm. In fact, it took him less than three years... He did not go out immediately after breaking through the Purple Realm. He even had half a year to stabilize his supernatural powers until today!

"More than half a year ago, I crushed the jade talisman and sent a message to Master Xiao..."

Li Zhouwei and Xiao Chuting exchanged jade talismans, each containing a wisp of the other's supernatural power. When one crushed the talisman, the other would sense it. Li Zhouwei conveyed his message to Xiao Chuting, but the immortal did not respond for a long time.

King Wei stood up, a moment of contemplation flashing across his face.

'Only just now did news of him arrive.'

Li Zhouwei thought about it for a moment and then understood:
'He guessed I was going to go through Ginseng Purple.'

'This old master's thoughts are truly thorough; he's advising me not to leave the lake prematurely and enter Luoyang.'

While Xiao Chuting could certainly activate the [Dalingchuan], it would inevitably take time. The [Shouxuanliu Talisman] could deceive the various Purple Mansions, but it could not deceive the True Lords. Li Zhouwei's strength changes were only unknown to all parties when he was on the lake. Once he left the lake, he would inevitably be discovered!

Even if the waiting time at the start is only one or two days, as long as Li Zhouwei arrives in advance, the various forces can make up for it immediately and continue to make moves!

'He's waiting for the cave to open, for all forces to have entered, for the game to be played once the pieces are placed, for the chessboard to be sealed, before informing me to immediately leave the lake and enter the cave, to strike back from behind!'

A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes:
'Furthermore, this means there's likely a considerable buffer period within the cave. Whether it's an ancient formation or a legacy hidden deep within the cave, it shouldn't be too late for my rescue.'

The newly promoted Grand Master Mingyang's smile deepened. He stood up, looked at Li Quewan, and his voice was filled with soaring fighting spirit:
"Let's go!"

……

Badger County.

The sky and earth were gloomy and dark, like a sea of ​​ink, pressing down on Mount Daling little by little. Divine powers flickered like lamps rising and falling within it.

'Too fast…'

Li Jiangqian waited in the mountains for a while, his face turned gloomy, and he raised his eyebrows and looked into the distance, where he caught sight of the golden-clad man standing with his hands behind his back in the true fire.

Tian Huo smiled.

Li Jiangqian smiled warmly.

'His words had barely faded when Xiao Chuting arrived like a gust of wind… It couldn't possibly be a coincidence. The so-called journey of several days was just a spur-of-the-moment thing, a deliberate fabrication to fool me… He phrased it so gently, so tactfully!'

'He knew who I was waiting for—luckily, I immediately reminded my family!'

Li Jiangqian's mind was racing with thoughts, but his smile remained polite and courteous. In the distance, Tian Huo stood with his hands behind his back, a hint of contemplation in his eyes.

'Is he really not here?'

He stood quietly, and the whispered words entered his ears through supernatural powers:

'Undetectable...it's highly likely they never came...Logically speaking, the level of refinement of the talisman from the Tantai family shouldn't have escaped the detection of the Celestial Astrologer!'

The voice sounded slightly aged, clearly belonging to Jin Yu's Pure Martial Immortal:

'They simply haven't come! Perhaps they genuinely desire that Bright Yang Spiritual Root—after all, it's a top-tier item in the world, and they can't help but be tempted.'

Tianhuo's lips and teeth moved slightly:

'impossible.'

Back then, he personally went to persuade Li Quewan and promised him all sorts of benefits, but now he is so decisive!
However, their subtle exchange was quickly interrupted. The black-clad monk had already taken to the wind and finally saw a few arcs of light emerge from the dark, sea-like clouds. The light was a mix of dark purple and solidified, like glass, rising and falling in the sea of ​​clouds.

'[Daeryungcheon]...'

"Boom!"

A deafening sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth. The figure in the straw raincoat strolled between heaven and earth, and the bronze chariot was like a dragon in the mist, revealing only a few scales and claws.

"Xiao Chuting!"

The blazing fire illuminated the south with a faint red glow. The golden-robed immortal descended through the air, and water and fire clashed in the heavens and earth, creating a deafening roar.
"Boom!"

A burst of intense water light crashed down, weaving freely through the flames like a nimble black dragon, rising into the sky. Xiao Chuting didn't even bother with it.

"A position of danger!"
The old master disappeared into it, followed closely by figures with supernatural powers that reached the heavens and the earth. In the distance, Tian Huo and Su Yan had already stepped into it.

Li Jiangqian stood there quietly, and not only him, but Sima Yuanli and Yu Xi beside him also remained motionless.

'Walking method…'

A moment or two before the cave heaven appeared in the world, it was merging with the void. If one had a void-walking technique or a spiritual artifact like the "Cultivation Technique," one could enter it ahead of time... Tian Huo and the others naturally did so, while the others were naturally a step behind.

'The Great Void Walking Technique…'

Li Jiangqian's gaze turned slightly cold.

The various methods of the Great Void, strictly speaking, include their own [Summoning and Concealing Techniques]. Among them, the methods of creation, movement, and isolation are the most commonly used. The Great Void Isolation Technique is the foundation of many Purple Mansion Grand Arrays and is not difficult. However, the first two methods are tightly sealed by the Great Dao lineage...

There is also a method of walking in the Shanghuan Pavilion. The Li family has a little over a thousand immortal skills, but they can only exchange for one book. They had already decided to search for it in the real world. Li Jiangqian could only wait quietly. Unexpectedly, a person stood out from the void. The ancient cauldron in his hand was tilted. The sky was filled with spiritual light, revealing an object that was neither a bottle nor a bottle.

[Questioning Wu Pingqing]!
A pure white color, like a path to the heavens, spreads down!

"All cultivators of the Great Song Dynasty, come inside with me!"

Yang Ruiyi was a beat slow, but his deep voice resounded through the sky, and joy appeared in Li Jiangqian's eyes:

'This Emperor Song is much more reliable!'

All of them were delighted and took off without hesitation, riding the wind and getting closer to the horizon under the gaze of the crowd, waiting for the purplish-black color to be fully revealed, and finally they could see the magnificent Xuan River that filled the sky in the glass!

Li Jiangqian used his supernatural powers to protect himself. His body sank and he wandered in the light of true qi. When he arrived in front of the glass, he felt a slight stirring in his heart. He slowly raised his head and sensed the [Cha You].

He did not descend into this strange cave, nor did he look towards the sky. Instead, he took the opportunity to rise upwards and suddenly collided with the [Wenwu Pingqing Zhi], which was neither a bottle nor a vessel, suspended in the sky!
The faint, ethereal aura covering the [Wenwu Pingqing Zhi] was as if it were nothing before [Chayou], and was instantly shattered, finally revealing the aura of this treasure that the Song Emperor had refined with his life.

Li Jiangqian felt a chill spread throughout his body. The countless terrifying powers condensed in the object before him were an unprecedented and unimaginable terrifying aura. The feedback from [Cha You] was actually various scenes.

The majestic immortal mountain, with its falling celestial flowers, the Taoist priests refining elixirs and ascending to immortality, all dazzled his eyes. There were also white cranes carrying fruit and stone monkeys knocking on the door. All these scenes seemed to be crashing heavily into his mind. This boundless pressure, which he had never felt before, seemed to be tearing his eyes to shreds, but it was all erased by [Cha You] from the cause and effect!

In just a moment, he naturally fell into the cave and lost all sense of the outside world.

Before me stretched an endless, all-encompassing black river.

Li Jiangqian seemed somewhat shocked, looking up in admiration, but his heart was filled with unimaginable lingering fear. This power, which was entangled with life and death and chilled him to the bone, seemed to be reminding him from the level of his true spirit.

'Is this a magical artifact?'

Let alone Lingbao, such power alone is enough to tell Li Jiangqian that he looked directly at the True Lord and swallowed the Golden Nature!
'That's not some Purple Mansion Spiritual Treasure that Emperor Song risked his life to refine... A Purple Mansion Spiritual Treasure couldn't possibly have such power...'

'That's a magic weapon!'

'This [Wenwu Pingqing Zhi]... is very likely the same one that True Lord Tianwu possessed back then! It's a genuine Golden Core magic weapon!'

What shocked him even more after a belated realization was that the [Wenwu Pingqing Zhi] was no ordinary magic weapon; it was a rank of True Qi! It was something that a True Lord had obtained by exchanging his own rank for a higher position!
'When Master Ning came to the lake years ago, he privately told his father that the True Lord had passed away and gone away, and the position of True Qi had lost its owner. This object had long since been broken and returned... So... it was still in the hands of the Underworld...'

His heart was as dark as ice, and he suddenly realized something:
'The Underworld… possesses such great supernatural powers! Was it after the passing of Heavenly Martial True Lord? …Or… when An Huaitian fell?! The true form of [Wenwu Pingqingzhi] is actually in their hands!'

'Even the [Wenwu Pingqing Zhi] is here, so could the [Quanye Wuyin] and [Fengzhen Ce Xuanbian] also be in the hands of the Underworld...? Only Ning Wan offered the Dragon Tendon, does that mean that only the [Fengzhen Ce Xuanbian] was never in their hands?'

'No wonder Changhuai Mountain was so uninterested, and the dragons were completely silent. Who can compete with the Underworld for this position of master of true qi!'
