Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The sword flashed like purple lightning, swift as a shooting star!
In an instant, a purple sword rainbow unleashed a chain of lightning stretching for thousands of miles, stirring up endless thunderous light.

The sword rainbow's momentum was majestic and awe-inspiring, like a comet striking the moon. When Dingyuan Zhenjun and Chiyuan Zhenjun looked up, they saw a three-foot-six-inch indigo immortal sword, carrying boundless ferocity, hurtling towards them amidst the flashing lightning and roaring thunder.

The purple immortal sword unleashed a terrifying and malevolent aura, stirring up clouds of calamity and transforming them into the breath of impending doom. In an instant, a scene of utter destruction swept over us.

What an eccentric Legend of Sword and Fairy!

Just as Dingyuan Zhenjun and Chiyuan Zhenjun were shocked by the fierce and malevolent aura of the purple immortal sword, the indigo-purple immortal sword struck the bone shield like a meteorite, shattering it into pieces on the spot.

boom!
Bone shield collapses!

As True Lord Chi Yuan gazed at the shattered bone shield, he felt a pang of pain in his heart: this was a Void Refining Treasure that he had painstakingly refined, not an ordinary magic weapon!
However, in the next instant, True Lord Chiyuan had no time to mourn his bone shield. The collapse of the bone shield caused True Lord Chiyuan's magic power to flow backward, his face turned pale, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

The purple immortal sword, undeterred, destroyed the bone shield and then struck Dingyuan Zhenjun, instantly tearing apart the thirteen layers of magical energy barriers on his body. It then shattered Dingyuan Zhenjun's last protective aura as easily as tearing silk!

At this moment, the purple immortal sword crackling with lightning pierced through his chest, and Dingyuan Zhenjun was immediately sent flying backward.

Immortal-killing Sword!
Jiang Sheng immediately used the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, the most swift and powerful of the Slaughtering and Trapping Swords.

Aside from his natal magic weapon, the Qingping Sword, Jiang Sheng's most powerful and deadly magic weapon is none other than the Four Immortal Swords of Slaughter and Traps.

Among them, the Zhuxian Sword is guided by the wind, making it the swiftest and most elegant, as well as the sharpest, capable of slaying the primordial spirit and destroying the physical body.

The Immortal Slayer Sword, powered by lightning, is the most swift and unparalleled offensive weapon, adept at using strength to attack strength, capable of shattering magical artifacts and destroying physical bodies.

At this moment, as soon as the Immortal Slaughtering Sword was unleashed, True Monarch Dingyuan was unable to withstand the attack and was sent flying millions of miles away before crashing down.

"Dingyuan!"

Crimson Primordial True Monarch's eyes were bloodshot, but only a moment later, an extremely sharp blade hurtled through the air and hurtled towards him!

As True Monarch Chi Yuan looked up, he saw a gust of green wind carrying a green immortal sword that whistled through the void.

Killing Immortal Sword!
The Immortal-Slaying Sword slays gods, the Immortal-Exterminating Sword slays souls.

The fragile protective aura on Chi Yuan Zhenjun's body was easily torn apart by the Zhuxian Sword, and then the three-foot-six-and-a-half-inch cyan immortal sword pierced through his body, causing Chi Yuan Zhenjun to fly backward involuntarily.

One breath, two swords!

Dingyuan Zhenjun and Chiyuan Zhenjun were both severely injured!

"Fellow Daoists, farewell."

Jiang Sheng spoke loudly, raised his hand to recall the Zhuxian Sword and the Luxian Sword, and disappeared without a trace in a flash.

True Monarch Chiyuan struggled to his feet from the broken rocks, gritted his teeth and swallowed a pill after looking at the wound on his chest. He then contacted the other True Monarchs through the communication jade pendant: "Lingyuan passed through my Zhushan Dao Palace, and both Dingyuan and I were injured by him!"

Upon hearing the news, True Lord Fufeng, who was in command at Beitian Pass, frowned: Two more True Lords had been injured! And it was Chi Yuan and Ding Yuan, two juniors he had high hopes for!
This Lingyuan
A sharp glint flashed in Fu Feng Zhenjun's eyes, clearly indicating that Jiang Sheng had piqued the interest of this Feng-generation Zhenjun of the Qiankun Dao Sect.

Although Jiang Sheng had gained fame for killing Qi Yuan, the most promising student of the Qiankun Dao Sect, to people like Fu Feng Zhenjun, Qi Yuan was indeed the most outstanding junior of the Yuan generation, and a genius that would not appear for ten thousand years.

However, it would be a lie to say that without Qi Yuan, the Qiankun Dao Sect would have no more Pure Yang seedlings.

Which Pure Yang Holy Land has only one Pure Yang Seedling?
It can be said that every generation of true disciples of the Xuanmen Daozong is a pure Yang seedling, but very few can make it to the end.

Even if Qi Yuan is gone, there are still Han Yuan, Xiang Yuan, and Wen Yuan.
Even at the very least, those of the Feng generation are still Ling Feng, and those of the Feng generation go upwards...
Yanzhou is, in essence, just a place where the Feng and Yuan generations reside. The older generation of the sects are all in Mingzhou and Cangzhou.

Therefore, although Jiang Sheng's killing of Qi Yuan did have some impact within the sect and caused some unrest among the Yuan generation, it was all within the sect's acceptable range.

Even if Jiang Sheng single-handedly interrupted the upward momentum of the Yuan generation of the Qiankun Dao Sect, it's nothing.

Moreover, when the Eastern Heaven Daoist School and the Qiankun Daoist Sect, along with other alliances, were fighting between Zhuzhou and Yanzhou, Jiang Sheng didn't show up much. This led True Lord Fufeng to perceive Jiang Sheng as just a relatively outstanding junior. Even when Lin Fan used Jiang Sheng's name to set up a sword formation using the projection of the Four Swords of Slaughter and Traps to kill two juniors, True Lord Fufeng didn't take him seriously.

However, as Jiang Sheng entered the Nine Provinces Realm, he first defeated the Three Calamity Lords, and then almost wiped them out right in front of him in the Northern Region of Yan Province. It was as if the fifty-three Dao Palaces and sixty-two True Lords of the Qiankun Dao Sect in the entire Northern Region of Yan Province could not defeat a junior of the Penglai Ling generation!
This piqued the interest of True Lord Fufeng: a young junior from the Xuanmen sect with such skills and extraordinary courage—the Penglai Dao Sect truly has a wealth of talent.

"True Lord?"

Seeing that True Lord Fufeng had not moved for a long time, the attendant carefully reminded him that all the True Lords in the entire Northern Region of Yanzhou were waiting for True Lord Fufeng to give orders.

However, True Lord Fufeng smiled slightly and said, "It's alright. I just find this Lingyuan somewhat interesting."

"It seems I must personally go and meet this peerless genius of the Penglai Dao Sect."

Having said that, True Lord Fufeng swept out of the Northern Heavenly Pass, soaring into the air and leaping hundreds of thousands of miles high.

After pushing aside the fierce winds and thunder that enveloped the human world, True Lord Fufeng continuously made finger movements, using the Xuanmen divination techniques to calculate Jiang Sheng's location coordinates.

All Taoist schools practice the art of divination, the only difference being whether they are proficient in it or not.

As a veteran True Lord of the Qiankun Dao Sect with combined Dao cultivation, Fu Feng Zhenjun, although he did not like the art of divination, could use it at will and with ease.

"Hmph, although the calamity of the Xuanmen Great Calamity is currently shrouding the Nine Provinces, finding a mere Void Refinement junior will not take much effort on me!"

As Fu Feng Zhenjun spoke, with the flow of his magical power, his left hand made calculations, and traces of energy veins appeared among the countless stars above Yanzhou. These were the veins of the earth's energy veins throughout Yanzhou.

One could see that the traces of energy veins were interconnected, weaving into a net that covered the entire Yanzhou sky, echoing and resonating with the earth veins that flowed through the mountains and rivers.

With his eyes closed, he sensed the resonance between the Qi and the earth's veins. Before his eyes appeared mountains and plains in the northern region of Yanzhou. As the light and shadow flickered and overlapped, they finally settled on a vast plain.

"White Millet Grass Sea?"

"Shuhai Daogong?!"

Fu Feng Zhenjun's eyes snapped open, gleaming with a sharp light: "Very good, very good, Shu Hai Dao Palace!"

As he spoke, True Lord Fufeng immediately took out a communication jade pendant: "You all quickly surround the Shuhai Dao Palace, do not reveal any secrets, and wait quietly for Lingyuan to fall into the trap!"

After delivering the order, True Lord Fufeng himself headed towards the Shuhai Palace, ready to personally witness the rising fame of Penglai Lingyuan among all the heavens and myriad realms.

However, just as True Lord Fufeng and a group of True Lords were heading to Shuhai Dao Palace, Jiang Sheng calmly turned around and returned to Baibo Dao Palace.

Meanwhile, the cultivators within the Baibo Dao Palace were busily engaged in their tasks. A tense atmosphere pervaded the entire palace, with all the Dao soldiers mobilized to guard all directions. At the same time, a group of Enforcement Hall disciples were deployed to various towns and cities within the Baibo Dao Palace's jurisdiction to prevent any unrest.

Deep within the Dao Palace, Pingyu was personally tending to the injured True Lord Liufeng, True Lord Hefeng, and True Lord Fenyuan.

The three True Lords were injured and are recuperating within the White Wave Palace, which is why the White Wave Palace is currently under such tight security.

The entire White Wave Palace could clearly see the scene when the True Lords revealed their true forms in the sky and laid out a net of heaven and earth.

At that time, the sky was dark and the earth was shrouded in darkness. The twelve immortals of the upper three realms revealed their true forms and descended to the mortal world. The stars in the sky shone brightly, illuminating all directions. On the earth, a golden net covered the eight wastelands. The Qiankun Dao Sect had set up such a grand formation, clearly intending to demonstrate the prestige of the Qiankun Dao Sect and suppress any local dissent.

However, all these arrangements fell through.

With Jiang Sheng's sword strike shattering the formidable divine power of a group of True Monarchs, the Qiankun Dao Sect lost all face.

The twelve True Lords joined forces, but Jiang Sheng managed to shatter the Heavenly Net, and three True Lords were severely injured and fell to the ground.

The dim stars in the sky and the shattered net not only signified the failure of the Qiankun Dao Sect's scheme, but also revealed the sect's weakness to everyone.

Under normal circumstances, the White Wave Palace might be peaceful.

But now, not only Baibo Dao Palace, but also the True Lords of the nearby Pinghe Dao Palace and Hengsong Dao Palace have been severely injured. Baibo Dao Palace had previously suppressed the rebellion in Xihe County, so it can be said that Baibo Dao Palace is not stable at all.

After taking care of his master and the other two True Lords, Pingyu hurriedly left the palace. Upon seeing Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoists."

Huang Ping'an laughed and said, "We two are just helping you out, while you are personally taking care of three True Lords. You are the one who is working the hardest."

"The situation is critical and the surroundings are unstable. This palace must be outwardly relaxed but inwardly vigilant to prevent any villains from causing trouble."

Pingyu nodded repeatedly: "Brother, what you say makes sense. But in the current situation, I really can't spare any attention. I can only hope that Master will get better soon."

Upon hearing this, Li Jianchun feigned ignorance: "Is that Daoist Lingyuan really that powerful? Why couldn't the twelve True Monarchs defeat him?"

"Are the three True Lords really that badly injured?"

Pingyu glanced at Li Jianchun, sighed softly, but still pulled Li Jianchun and Huang Ping'an to sit down to the side: "You two are not outsiders, so I'll just speak frankly."

“It’s not just you two fellow Daoists, I didn’t believe it at first either! But you two also saw what happened earlier, and Ling Yuan is truly powerful.”

"As for my master, there are two other True Lords."

"Ling Yuan's sword strike was too brutal; he'll need at least two or three years to recover."

Take two or three years to recover!

Li Jianchun and Huang Ping'an were both shocked. Although they knew their master was powerful, they had never seen their master truly display his supernatural abilities. Today, at Baibo Dao Palace, the two of them finally witnessed their master's skills.

He treated the twelve True Monarchs of the Qiankun Dao Sect as nothing, instantly slaying three of them with his sword. Such supernatural power and swordsmanship truly made the two of them yearn for it.
Seeing the shocked expressions on Li Jianchun and Huang Ping'an's faces, Ping Yu assumed that these two fellow disciples were also frightened by Jiang Sheng, so he reassured them, "Don't panic, fellow disciples. Ling Yuan has already fallen into Uncle Fu Feng's trap. He will be captured soon."

Huang Ping'an's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Oh? Uncle-Master Fu Feng has already laid a trap?"

Pingyu chuckled: "I'm not too clear on the specifics either. It was Master who comforted me with those words at the last minute. I suppose Uncle-Master Fufeng already has a plan in mind."

Huang Ping'an nodded repeatedly, saying intentionally or unintentionally, "I had previously heard that Uncle Fu Feng was a man of great foresight, but he disliked divination. It seems that even without divination, capturing Uncle Fu Feng of Lingyuan would be a piece of cake."

Upon hearing this, Pingyu lowered her voice and asked, "Have you also heard that Uncle-Master Fufeng dislikes divination?"

Li Jianchun deliberately showed off: "It's said that during a divination class, Uncle-Master Fufeng was so engrossed in sword techniques that he forgot to listen to the elder's lecture. He was called out by the elder and embarrassed himself, and ever since then he has disliked divination."

"Rumors, rumors, don't tell anyone else about this."

Pingyu's eyes widened in surprise. He had only heard his master, True Lord Liufeng, mention that Uncle-Master Fufeng disliked divination, but he didn't know there was such a reason behind it.

Looking at Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun in front of him, Ping Yu understood: those who know such secret information must have extraordinary lineage, and may well be one of the other Feng generation senior uncles.

However, Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun didn't mention it, and Pingyu didn't feel comfortable asking either.

As the three discussed the embarrassing incidents of True Lord Fufeng in the past, their relationship became closer. Pingyu said, "Brothers, I need to be busy with my master's affairs these days. I entrust the Dao Palace to you two to take good care of it."

Upon hearing this, Huang Ping'an said, "That's inappropriate."

Pingyu was taken aback: "Why?"

Huang Ping'an explained, "Firstly, this is Baibo Dao Palace, the Daoist temple of True Lord Liufeng. We are guests, so how can we act recklessly in the host's temple?"

"Now that the temple is unstable and True Lord Hefeng and True Lord Fenyuan are injured, the most urgent task is to invite True Lord Hefeng and True Lord Fenyuan's disciples to come and stabilize the people's hearts."

"Fellow Daoist trusts the two of us and asks us to guard your Daoist temple, but this is putting the cart before the horse."

Pingyu suddenly realized and apologized repeatedly: "I was too hasty and negligent. Right now, I should indeed notify True Lord Hefeng and True Lord Fenyuan and ask their disciples to come and take care of things."

"I will go and tell my master to ask True Lord Hefeng and True Lord Fenyuan to send people over immediately."

Watching Pingyu leave in a hurry, Li Jianchun and Huang Pingan exchanged a glance and remained silent.

After Pingyu returned to his palace and reported Li Jianchun and Huang Ping'an's insights to Liufeng Zhenjun, Liufeng Zhenjun nodded: "Those two lads have indeed spoken with maturity and prudence."

“At times like these, it’s definitely more reassuring to have your own people by your side to take care of you. I’ve already spoken to He Feng and Fen Yuan about this and asked them to send their disciples over to take care of you as soon as possible. This will also help relieve some of the pressure on you.”

"When your two senior uncles' disciples arrive, they will bring at least several thousand Dao soldiers, which will be enough to stabilize the situation at Baibo Dao Palace."

Seeing that her master was still thinking about how to help her relieve the pressure at this time, Pingyu couldn't help but have tears well up in her eyes: "Master, this disciple is incompetent and has troubled you."

Liu Feng Zhenjun smiled and patted Ping Yu on the shoulder: "It's not your fault. In the end, we underestimated Ling Yuan and the heroes of all the heavens and myriad realms."

"I should get closer to those two lads in the future. Although they are unwilling to reveal their master, I have guessed a thing or two."

As he spoke, True Monarch Liufeng glanced meaningfully in the direction of the Longevity Immortal Palace. (End of Chapter)
