I come to see Bai Yujing today

Chapter 309 Chen Zhian, the Oriole

The longbow in the hands of this female general of Dali seemed extremely precious and mysterious, changing at will, transforming from a longbow into a long sword, and then into a long spear in a short time.

The spear, like a dragon, pierced straight into the universe, creating sonic booms in the void.

An unimaginable spirit blossoms in the void.

The woman, dressed in white armor and with a full head of red hair, strolled leisurely in the void, yet the Heavenly Palace seemed to be able to suppress the area within a ten-mile radius, terrifying to the extreme.

In terms of cultivation, Chi Xuanzi is only at the Xuanfu realm, far inferior to this female general.

However, Chi Xuanzi possessed profound knowledge and his Dao Xuan Sect divine abilities and skills were extremely refined. His true essence was also very abundant, flowing like a long river.

besides……

The whisk in Chi Xuanzi's hand and the Bagua diagram drawn on the wooden hairpin on his topknot were actually priceless treasures!

Such a treasure... how precious it is!
Chen Zhian was knowledgeable and experienced. Up to now, among those below the Creation Realm, he had only ever seen Xie Wuju of the Xie family in Longxi possess one supreme treasure.

That was the demonic seed planted in his body!

However, this demonic seed is quite mysterious, very different from ordinary treasures, and is not a treasure for attack!
Both the whisk and the wooden hairpin in Chi Xuanzi's hand were mysterious, yet Chi Xuanzi, a cultivator of the Xuan Mansion, was able to perfectly wield these two treasures.

Even if his true essence and primordial spirit were insufficient to unleash the full power of these two treasures, they were still far superior to the Xuanbao.

That's why... even though the Dali female general had a similarly profound foundation and surging true essence, and her cultivation was even much higher than that of Chi Xuanzi, she did not gain any advantage in their battle.

even……

When the Eight Trigrams Formation Diagram of the Mysterious Child condensed again, it exploded once more, transforming into Yin-Yang sword energy that poured down like a torrential rain.

The spear in the female general's hand trembled suddenly, and the strong impact caused her body to be violently pushed back.

Chi Xuanzi stood still, the Bagua formation behind him condensing again. He gently waved his whisk, and the rolling true essence flowed again, almost locking in the world within a ten-mile radius.

Chi Xuanzi looked at the Da Li female general with cold eyes.

The Great Li female general looked at the mountain beneath Chi Xuanzi's feet and vaguely sensed that the jade pendant on her body, which was used to explore opportunities, was still heating up.

"The Dao Xuan Sect prides itself on being a prestigious and righteous sect, and its leader wants to bring righteousness back to the world."

Now, the disciples of the Dao Xuan Sect are fiercely vying for this demonic weapon of slaughter…

The female general looked closely at Chi Xuanzi and felt that the cold aura emanating from him was becoming increasingly intense, and it also carried a lot of strange energy, which surprised her.

Chi Xuanzi remained silent, while the Bagua formation behind him spun even faster.

Only then did he finally speak his first words.

"This treasure in the mountains is called the Soul-Devouring Cauldron. When a living being is thrown into the cauldron, it can be refined into a Soul Pill. Consuming it can increase one's cultivation. The black mist in the cauldron can defile the nature of the spiritual treasure."

"General Chu, this treasure is not suitable for you. Although you have cultivated great killing techniques, all your killing aura comes from the battlefield, and those who die at your hands are all soldiers."

You are not a truly evil person; you cannot control this Soul-Devouring Cauldron.

As Chi Xuanzi spoke eloquently, the dragon-shaped patterns on his whisk surged, truly resembling real dragons.

The female general whom Chi Xuanzi referred to as "General Chu" remained silent, yet showed no sign of yielding.

General Chu's red hair flew wildly, and with a sudden twist of his spear, the tip emitted a blinding crimson light, transforming into a ferocious blood dragon that roared and lunged at Chi Xuanzi. Chi Xuanzi flicked his whisk, and the Kan (water) and Li (fire) trigrams in the Bagua formation suddenly lit up, the water and fire intertwining to form a barrier that kept the blood dragon at bay.

"Dao Xuan's sealing technique... is indeed extraordinary." General Chu's Heavenly Palace was filled with surging blood, and wisps of blood energy overflowed from her seven orifices, actually condensing into a blood-red war god phantom behind her.

The phantom figure wielded a giant axe, and with one swing, the Bagua formation shook violently, and the Kan-Li barrier shattered!
Chi Xuanzi's face was slightly pale, but he showed no panic. He made a hand seal with his left hand and softly shouted, "Thunder!"

Boom——!
In the Bagua formation, the Zhen trigram exploded with lightning, and countless electric snakes shot out from the void, entangled with the blood-red war god.

At the same time, the peach wood hairpin on Xuanzi's topknot shone brightly, splitting into eight illusory figures, each corresponding to one of the eight trigrams, which surrounded General Chu.

"Eight Gates Lock the Heavens!"

General Chu suddenly felt the space around him freeze, as if he were sinking into a swamp.

She snorted coldly, and her spear suddenly plunged into the ground. The blood-red patterns on the spearhead lit up, and it transformed into a river of blood that surged forth!

Wherever the Blood River passed, the eight illusory gates were corroded and dissolved, and the power to lock the sky instantly collapsed.

"Your Taoist arts are profound, but your cultivation level is still insufficient!"

General Chu took a step forward, and the Crimson War God merged with her, traversing great distances, and punched towards Chi Xuanzi's face.

Holding Xuanzi's whisk, it coiled like a silver dragon, wrapping around General Chu's wrist. With his other hand, he pointed his fingers like a sword, gathering a wisp of azure light at the fingertips, aiming straight for General Chu's brow: "Azure Xuan Finger!"

This seemingly casual gesture contained the true meaning of the Daoist sect's power to ward off evil. General Chu felt a sharp pain between his brows, and the blood-red war god was pierced by the blue light, disintegrating into a sky full of blood mist.

She groaned, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and her body retreated dozens of feet.

"A true disciple of the Dao Xuan Sect, truly deserving of the name!" General Chu wiped away the blood, his eyes burning with even greater fighting spirit.

She suddenly closed her eyes and focused her mind. The sea of ​​blood in the Heavenly Palace suddenly calmed down, and a ray of golden light emerged from the depths of the sea of ​​blood.

Chi Xuanzi frowned, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

The next moment, General Chu suddenly opened his eyes and held up a golden cicada in his palm!
The golden cicada's entire body was like crystal, and as its wings trembled, Buddhist chants resounded throughout heaven and earth—

"Om! Mani! Padme! Hum!"

The six-syllable mantra of Om Mani Padme Hum transformed into tangible golden patterns, sweeping across all directions like a tidal wave.

When the Xuanzi Bagua Formation touched the golden pattern, it melted away as quickly as snow meeting the blazing sun!
His expression changed drastically. He waved his whisk, but he couldn't stop the Buddhist chant from reaching his ears. His primordial spirit was struck as if by lightning, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

"The Great Zen Buddhist Sound?!" Chi Xuanzi shouted sharply, his body staggering.

General Chu did not answer. The Buddhist chant changed again, and the golden cicada flapped its wings and flew up, hovering above her head, showering down endless Buddhist light.

Chi Xuanzi gritted his teeth and made a hand seal. The Bagua formation suddenly contracted, transforming into a yin-yang escape light that enveloped him, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"They escaped?" General Chu's breathing became disordered, and the golden cicada's Buddhist light dimmed.

She took a moment to catch her breath and finally felt relieved.

"This Master Chixuan is rather strange. The Great Zen Golden Cicada Demon Sound, which is specifically used to subdue demons and evil spirits, can make him feel as if he is facing a formidable enemy, and can even directly injure his primordial spirit and Xuanfu."

"He doesn't seem like a righteous Daoist master; he's more like a young demon."

General Chu pondered for a moment, but was not worried that Chi Xuanzi would make a comeback.

With the Great Zen Golden Cicada, even though Chi Xuanzi had a profound foundation, he was completely restrained and was no match for her.

"This Chi Xuanzi is incredibly powerful and can also activate a supreme treasure. Fortunately, I have this Golden Cicada; otherwise, in a prolonged battle, I might not be a match for him."

She shook her head slightly, her full head of red hair like fire.

General Chu turned and walked towards the mountain stream. True essence emanated from his palm, and a blood-red vortex rose from the ground. A small, pitch-black cauldron slowly emerged from the vortex.

The body of the cauldron is carved with hideous ghost faces, and black mist swirls around the mouth of the cauldron, faintly emanating mournful howls.

General Chu smiled slightly and nodded gently.

She took a few steps forward, stretched out a hand, and tried to take down the small, black cauldron.

At this moment.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened; the distant clouds and mist abruptly dispersed.

A bolt of lightning and a burst of fire suddenly descended from the sky, igniting the surrounding clouds.

The surrounding mountains and rivers were instantly transformed into a sea of ​​fire.

General Chu's expression turned cold as he vaguely sensed flame puppets emerging from the surrounding flames.

These puppets crashed down, carrying raging flames, and were upon her body in an instant.

The scorching heat seemed to burn everything away.

"A second-grade Xuanbao (mysterious treasure)."

General Chu snorted coldly, his long, crimson hair fluttering in the wind.

With a swift movement, she grasped the longbow in her hand. In an instant, General Chu drew the bow and nocked an arrow, his true essence surging forth like ocean waves and instantly flowing into the first-grade Xuan Treasure longbow!

As the bowstring trembled, a crimson arrow tore through the sky, piercing through all the incoming fire golems. Its momentum undiminished, it shot straight into the depths of the clouds!
There stood a figure in blue armor, riding the thunderbolts.

"A cultivator from the Mysterious Pool?" General Chu was quite surprised when he sensed Chen Zhian's cultivation level.

But she didn't feel much contempt for it.

In this celestial palace, there are countless powerful figures and countless extraordinary individuals.

For a cultivator at the Profound Pool Realm to dare to attack her, he must have something to rely on.

Then her eyes lit up, and she looked closely!

When she saw the Divine Profound Sword hanging above the head of the blue-armored expert, her pupils suddenly contracted.

The lightning and fire wrapped around the sword's edge caused the longbow in her hand to tremble slightly!

The longbow in her hand is called "Hundred Forms," ​​a gift from the Great Li Heavenly General.

Although this treasure is not a supreme treasure, it is an unparalleled treasure among first-grade mystic treasures, with immense power, far surpassing ordinary first-grade mystic treasures.

But at this moment, when the Hundred-Form Longbow sensed the sharpness of the sword, it couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"A sword that has been forged more than 100,000 times and is renowned throughout the world?"

General Chu frowned.

But in the next instant, she realized that the person in front of her was not only relying on the sword.

At this moment, Chen Zhian held the Nine Dragons Fire Mirror in his left hand, and nine fire dragons roared and surged in the mirror.

The Azure Emperor's sword intent, wielded by the Tiger Soul Blade in his right hand, soared into the sky, carving out a hundred-foot-long sword river in the void.

Even more terrifying was the image of the Killing Heavenly King behind him—his white robes stained with blood, his eyes lowered, and the light of the Evil-Pursuing Sword in his hand flickering erratically, as if he were about to judge all living beings at any moment.

"Not weak!"

General Chu may appear beautiful and delicate, but she possesses an imposing presence.

Seeing Chen Zhian's profound background, she nodded and said, "Okay!"

Although General Chu was wounded in a great battle with Chi Xuanzi, his fighting spirit only grew stronger.

Blood surged within her Heavenly Palace as three spirit arrows were simultaneously nocked onto the bowstring!

"Three Waves Over Chu!"

The arrow is released from the bow!

The three spirit arrows plummeted like stars.

The first arrow pierced through the thunder and fire, the second arrow shattered the sword river, and the third arrow aimed straight for Chen Zhian's brow!

Where the arrow passed, three blood-red grooves were left in the void, which could not be healed for a long time.

Chen Zhian neither dodged nor evaded, and the Divine Profound Sword suddenly slashed down from above his head.

The sword's edge clashed with the blood arrow, and the resulting shockwave pulverized all the surrounding rocks within a hundred feet.

He pressed forward, and the Tiger Soul Blade suddenly changed its move to the [Mountain-Splitting Style] from the Mountain and River Blade Chapter. The blade light fell like a silver river, crossing many distances, and slashed towards General Chu's right shoulder.

General Chu parried with his bow, and in that instant, the Hundred-Phase Longbow transformed into a massive tiger-head armor!
The Tiger Soul Blade roared, and so did the tiger-head armor.

The roar was accompanied by the clang of metal on metal!
General Chu retreated seven steps before regaining his footing amidst the clanging of metal on metal.

With a frown, she discovered that every strike from this Xuanchi cultivator was as heavy as a mountain, brimming with blood energy. Even more terrifying was his strange divine appearance—whenever the Killing Heavenly King's eyes opened and closed, the sea of ​​blood in her Heavenly Palace would inexplicably boil, as if he had encountered a natural enemy.

"This divine form is also filled with killing intent, fierce and unrestrained, as if it is also nurturing a sea of ​​blood."

This person must be a powerful figure from the Great Qian Dynasty.

With this thought in mind, General Chu stopped attacking despite her injuries, and a primordial spirit was reflected between her brows.

From that primordial spirit, another golden cicada flew out.

"The Great Zen Golden Cicada!"

The cicada flapped its wings, and Buddha's light shone everywhere, just about to suppress the Killing Heavenly King.

Chen Zhian sensed the dazzling and astonishing Buddhist light, and felt the profound power within it, and was about to give way.

But then suddenly she let out a soft "Eh..."

"what happened?"

A sudden change occurred!

The fierce-looking Heavenly King behind Chen Zhian suddenly became solemn and dignified, and the bloodstains on his white robes transformed into lotus patterns, appearing even more holy than the golden cicada's Buddha light!

Suddenly, the cicada broke free of control and flew towards the Killing King with a joyful cry!
then……

It simply disappeared into his palm.

General Chu was terrified, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!

"My refining runes have all broken off?"

She had obtained this golden cicada by chance and had already refined it, but now it was forcibly taken away by this strange divine form!
"Who exactly are you?" General Chu frowned even more deeply.

Her response was met with two intersecting sword lights—the Heavenly King's Evil-Chasing Sword Light descended like divine punishment, while the Thunderfire Sword Scripture transformed into a soaring dragon.

With the golden cicada stolen and already injured, General Chu was in a state of mental turmoil!

However, her accumulated power was still immense; her condensed true essence surged like a sea of ​​blood, blocking the sword strike.

However, General Chu's spirit was greatly diminished because of these various reasons.

Chen Zhian was at his peak. He stepped forward, pressing his advantage relentlessly. Suddenly, two beams of light appeared from the Divine Profound Sword, one like thunder and the other like fire, their power growing ever stronger.

The intense sword light pierced the universe, spreading across several miles around.

Without further hesitation, General Chu suddenly crushed the jade pendant at his waist, and his figure turned into a blood mist, disappearing more than ten miles away.

"Today, I, Chu Beishan, have lost."

"May I ask your name?"

Her divine essence flowed forth and exploded in the void.

Chu Beishan?
The name of this female general of Dali is rather strange; it doesn't sound like a woman's name.

Chen Zhian pondered in his heart, but remained silent and did not answer Chu Beishan's question.

He did not go to pursue Chu Beishan.

Firstly, because someone like Chu Beishan must have countless ways to protect himself, and if he were to forcibly pursue her with his current cultivation level, he might not be able to kill her as he wishes.

Secondly, because... he has more important things to do now.

Soul-Eating Cauldron…

The clouds dispersed and the wind subsided, and Chen Zhian stood with his sword sheathed.

He gazed at the Soul-Eating Cauldron floating in the mountain stream, his brow furrowed. The cauldron was shrouded in black mist, its surface distorted by grotesque ghostly faces, and the wails of wronged souls could be faintly heard.

At this moment...

The Green Mountain Tower in Baiyujing trembled violently, and the third floor of the pavilion emitted a blue light that resonated with the black cauldron.

He had no interest in this weapon of blood sacrifice and slaughter.

The third floor of Qingshan Tower was bathed in light...

Just like how Qingshanlou really liked this Soul-Eating Cauldron.
