Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Heavenly medicine - [Spring before illness].

Looking at the object Ji Xiu held in his palm, radiating a strong vitality, it seemed to have the power to turn decay into magic.
Xiao Mingli lowered her eyelashes and remained silent, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Seeing this, Ji Xiu looked around and saw that the sect leaders and grand masters who were trembling with fear and didn't even dare to breathe loudly were immediately granted a pardon and retreated one after another.

Seeing this scene, Ji Xiu couldn't help but feel a sense of disorientation. It turned out that times had changed, and the once powerful and influential schools and sects that had emerged from Anning County were now just a distant memory.
Now, because of my words, they are treated as if they were divine orders, and I dare not be negligent.

He finally fulfilled the great vow he made that snowy night when he traversed this world.

To stand out from the crowd.

But looking at Jiangyin Prefecture, which appeared to be shrouded in blood, a gloom immediately rose in Ji Xiu's heart:
"Your Highness, these days..."

"What is the situation inside Jiangyin Prefecture?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mingli immediately snapped out of her reverie, quickly concealing her previous sorrowful expression. Her delicate brows furrowed, revealing a solemn expression.

"The situation is very bad."

"The gate to the Yellow Heaven had been gradually suppressed, but perhaps because the great calamity of a thousand years was approaching, many gates were loosened. Behind them, a great supernatural being spent a lot to gradually stabilize that gate."

"In other words, from now on, Jiangyin Prefecture may become a passage directly connected to the Yellow Heaven in the [Divine Path], and will be the first to bear the brunt."

"At the very first moment of the incident, I, together with the Prefect of Jiangyin, evacuated the people of Anning County and the surrounding counties and townships."

"But the Hun Tian bandits came with great force and received assistance from the Zhonghuang and Xuanfu sects. Their titled combat power overwhelmed the entire prefecture, making the situation extremely precarious, as it is today."

"Currently on Jin'ao Island, the Heavenly Blade lineage is still besieged by the Central Yellow Deity and the Mysterious Talisman True Man, and their situation is unknown."

“Ji Xiu, you should now ask the Dragon Elephant Ancestor to go to Jin'ao Island to resolve this crisis. As for the aftermath here, just leave it to me.”

At this point, Xiao Mingli closed the jade box, her small face serious.

Is Jin'ao Island besieged?
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiu looked at Elder Chen Sanjiu of the Heavenly Blade Sect to the side, his pupils contracting.

He originally thought that seeing Chen Sanjiu here meant that the situation on Jin'ao Island was under control, and with his grandmaster Wang Xuanyang in charge, there should be no danger.

But now it seems...
He misunderstood.

Perhaps it was because Grandmaster Wang Xuanyang was worried about the situation of the Jiangyin Marquis's mansion when the incident occurred that he summoned Chen Sanjiu, a Martial Saint of the title level, to come and provide assistance.

In fact, without the title of leader in charge, and with the addition of the divine talisman array of the Jiangyin Marquis's mansion, it would have been difficult to withstand the attack until today, until Ji Xiu arrived to provide reinforcements.

However, the price was that the Heavenly Blade lineage was held up by Grandmaster Wang Xuanyang alone, who withstood all the pressure, and it is unknown how things turned out.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiu's heart sank slightly, and he simply nodded emphatically:
"it is good."

Knowing that time was of the essence and not a moment could be wasted, he kept it brief, forcefully placing the jade box in Xiao Mingli's hand, patting her palm, and then giving her instructions:
"The great chaos that is happening once in a thousand years may be coming in our generation. This medicine was made by a master craftsman from the Crimson Origin Palace of the Immortal Path. It has the effect of washing away your chronic illness and turning your six years of wasted time into resources."

"After I leave, you must take it immediately. Do not delay, lest you jeopardize its effectiveness."

Xiao Mingli frowned and became serious:
"I know."

The woman took a soft breath, feeling moisture floating on her eyelashes, making it difficult to see the person in front of her clearly, as if her eyes were covered.

But she still forced herself to hold back, opened her eyes, and looked directly at Ji Xiu, who was thinking of her wholeheartedly. She felt the warmth of his palm and for a moment they were connected.

She knew that Ji Xiu was no longer the poor young man who had come from Anning County to Jiangyin Prefecture and only needed the protection of the Beicang Marquis's Mansion.

The karma he carries, the vortex he is caught in.
If a woman like herself, crippled and unable to progress, cannot recover, she will be left far behind.

If you want to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, you must repeat your former glory, become the chief of Tianchi, and be among the top ten pillars, so that you can share some of his burden!
Otherwise, we are destined to become strangers.

Therefore, at this point, no matter how many words are spoken or how much emotion is expressed, it is all in vain and mostly pale.

If one cannot stand shoulder to shoulder with someone, how can romantic love rival spiritual practice?
With a firm resolve, Xiao Mingli flicked her jade-like finger and retrieved the celestial medicine, "Spring Before Illness."
Looking at its emerald green luster and the celestial patterns on it, it seemed to be a miraculous medicine that could seize the creation of heaven and earth and extract the essence of the sun and moon.
Without much hesitation, she tilted her head back, parted her lips slightly, and swallowed it directly as if it were a jade pearl!
"When faced with a major event, I have already made up my mind about what is advantageous and what is disadvantageous."

"The best course of action now is to resume our spiritual practice, only then will we have a future."

She spoke softly, her voice firm and resolute:
"Just go ahead. I've taken care of your old friends in Anning County. There's nothing to worry about."

"Wait until I've fully refined the medicinal properties, until we meet again."

"I will never be in such a sorry state."

Seeing that Xiao Mingli had a heroic air about him and did not refuse, he made a decision immediately.

Ji Xiu smiled, turned around, and took a deep breath:

"The Xuanfu Sect came for nothing more than a 'Nine-Aperture Golden Pill' that I obtained from the Yuanfu Palace of Impermanence of All Laws."

"Unable to find me, they have turned their attention to my Heavenly Blade lineage. What an undeserved calamity!"

“Grandmaster Longxiang, Senior Brother Qi, the Heavenly Blade True Sect has been kind to me in teaching me. No matter what, I must go.”

"Even if we break ties with the heretical sects and the immortal lineages, I should bear this karmic debt alone, instead of letting the sect take it upon itself!"

All things are impermanent, the primordial palace is the mysterious talisman with nine orifices and a golden

As Qi Nanke traveled along, it was as if he were parting the clouds to see the fog, gradually uncovering the past of Ji Xiu, while his interest in the matter grew.

As a true martial arts disciple, he was naturally familiar with the "Impermanent Lord of All Laws" from the late Fan and early Xuan periods a thousand years ago, and had heard of him to some extent.

Unexpectedly.
This Junior Brother Ji actually has such a connection with those ancient historical figures, and he even managed to cause the Xuanfu Sect to make such a big fuss. He must have quite a background.

In addition, there were those words spoken by the Heavenly King Hun Tian, ​​who had just pledged allegiance to Zhong Huang.
Such a being, simultaneously targeted by the Central Yellow Divine Court and the various immortal lineages, is a rare sight indeed throughout history!
With so many karmic debts included, even if you were to single out any one of the Nine Surnames and Ten Pillars, it would probably be difficult to cope.

This junior brother is truly remarkable.

But the more this was the case, the more Qi Nanke appreciated it, and he did not hesitate or look back because of these causes and effects.

Only mediocre people are not envied!
Without experiencing hardships and tribulations, how can one seize opportunities and reach the summit?

The more karma this junior brother Ji gets into, the more trouble he accumulates.
This means that the more opportunities he receives, the more it proves that, as long as he doesn't fail prematurely, he will surely become a leader of his era!
"I'd like to see that."

"Just how much trouble can this junior brother from the Beicang Dragon Elephant lineage stir up?!" On Jin'ao Island, at the Heavenly Blade True Sect!

Originating from the Central Yellow Heaven, it is one of the eight hundred divine palaces on earth, serving the divine lord 'Thunder-Controlling and Axe-Wielding Divine Lord' of the Guangfa Ganglei Holy God.

At this moment, he was looking at the isolated island with Qinian, a divine master under Xuanxiao Zhenzun of the Xuanfu Sect, their brows slightly furrowed.

"That martial artist's sword is truly formidable. If my fellow Daoist and I join forces, even among the giants of the Human Immortal Martial Arts, we might not be able to match him."

"In the end, they could never gain any advantage over him and could not kill him directly. How could such a powerful figure exist in such a small place as Da Xuan?"

The Thunder-Controlling and Axe-Wielding Deity sighed, his mind beginning to waver.
"My Venerable God has entered the Great Profound Realm with a summons from the Divine Court. His purpose is clear. This time, due to the reason of the fellow Daoists of the Xuanfu Sect, I have wasted many days here, but the person your sect needs has not shown up."

In my opinion, it would be better to leave as soon as possible.

Upon seeing this, Master Qi from the Xuanfu Sect simply shook his head:
"The True Venerable Xuanxiao made a pact with the current leader of the Myriad Laws Sect to play chess in the North Sea for seven years. Before leaving, he insisted on entrusting the matter to True Lord Yuanlingzai to retrieve the 'Nine Aperture Golden Elixir' from that person's body."

"To this end, we spared no expense to secure the cross-border passage and even joined forces with your Zhonghuang Divine Court."

"Now that my teachings have provided both military support and dedicated effort, helping you enter Jiangyin Prefecture, occupy a bridgehead, and establish a base to negotiate with the Baishan Heishui and Beicang vassal states, how can we give up halfway?"

"That person was protected by the Jiang clan's hunting lord of Qishan last time and managed to escape."

"But now the world is shaking, the heavens and the universe are wide open, and the gates between realms are loosening. They can now support those at the title level, and True Persons and True Monarchs can traverse the heavens and the earth without being suppressed."

"Judging from the situation, it is very likely that the 'unification of all heavens' will occur ahead of schedule. Therefore, as the location of the central heaven, many of the most outstanding people in the human world of the Great Xuan have met together in an attempt to stop it."

"As a member of the Nine Clans, Lord Jiang is currently extremely busy and has no time to attend to anything else. Given the information we have gathered, he will certainly not remain indifferent to the danger his sect is in. This is a golden opportunity."

"The current chief disciple of my Xuanfu Sect, a descendant of immortals who nearly won the championship in the last [Ten Great Dao Lineages, Immortal Yuan Gathering], has already set off specifically for this Golden Elixir."

"The Great Xuan is now engulfed in war, only slightly better than the chaos of the late Fan Dynasty, and it has no time to attend to other matters."

"Once they arrive, the overall situation will be settled. Why don't you wait a little longer?"

As Master Qi of the Xuanfu Sect was talking to himself, he suddenly noticed that the expression of the Thunder-Controlling and Axe-Wielding Divine Lord he was discussing with changed, and he looked in the direction of Jiangyin Prefecture.

But then a red-robed figure, whose body was formed from divine essence and who possessed the cultivation of a ghost immortal, flew over. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than the Red-Bearded Heavenly King.

At this moment, the leader of the Hun Tian Clan looked extremely flustered:
"My Lord, when will Your Majesty descend?"

“I have found the person he wants to capture, but he is protected by powerful figures, so there is no way to make a move.”

"Moreover, the Marquis of Beicang Prefecture has already dispatched the prefectural guards, sending the Dragon Fang warships to storm the prefectural city. My troops have suffered a crushing defeat!"

"The only way forward is to invite the Heavenly Venerable to take charge of the situation!"

Has the person the revered deity sought, who went to such great lengths, finally been found?
The Thunder-Controlling and Axe-Wielding God was startled.

The Taoist soldiers of the Xuanfu Sect thought that Huang Tianfei had put in so much effort because he wanted to regain the face he had lost in the previous "Three-Five Slaying Evil God's Mansion".

But that's not actually the case. This time, it's because that Guangfa Ganglei Venerable God received a task from the Divine Court that goes directly to the ears of Heaven. Otherwise, why would he go to such lengths?
Therefore, upon hearing the words of the Red-Bearded Heavenly King, he instinctively wanted to go and capture him to gain merit, but after hearing what he said next, he stopped and hesitated.

Just as he was thinking about how to respond.
His own seal, which represented his rank of 'Divine Lord', suddenly shone with divine light, as if a thought of a higher rank had personally arrived!
"I am already fully aware of the specifics, so there is no problem!"

"I have just learned from His Majesty Taiyi that the unification of all heavens is imminent. He has bestowed upon us a national treasure and a treasure of destiny, which has already transformed the Great Xuan 'Earth Dragon Cave' into a secure gateway. From now on..."

"This Great Mystery will then be completely connected with my divine realm of Guangfa Ganglei Heavenly Venerable, and at the same time, the suppression of my divine path by the Great Mystery Heavenly Dao will be reduced to a low point!"

"Let those martial artists of the Great Xuan realm show off their power for now. You all should retreat and return to the Dragon Cave outside Jiangyin Prefecture to prepare."

"Welcome to the arrival of this Heavenly Venerable!"

"At that time, I, the Celestial Venerable, will personally carry the 'Taiyi Decree' to summon the person in charge of the White Mountains and Black Waters for a meeting and negotiation. I am not afraid that he will hand over that brat named 'Ji Xiu' to me!"

Heavenly Venerable?

When Master Qi of the Xuanfu Sect heard this self-proclaimed title, his heart was stirred with considerable unease.

Isn't it said that behind this yellow hue is nothing more than a divine being comparable to the pinnacle of power?

When did you become a Celestial Venerable?
Moreover, they could even reach the ears of the heavens directly and be high-ranking officials of the divine court who carried out the decrees of the divine Taiyi!
He's almost only a head shorter than those emperors!

Originally unwilling, he wanted to ask this Celestial Venerable for assistance with the Xuanfu Sect's plans, since everything had been agreed upon beforehand. However, upon hearing the name 'Ji Xiu,' this True Man Qi suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Isn't this the person the sect mentioned who possesses the "Nine Aperture Golden Elixir"?
It's like searching high and low without finding it; such a coincidence! The person the Xuanfu Sect is looking for is the same person this Heavenly Venerable is trying to capture.
Therefore, Master Qi, who was originally about to speak, immediately shut his mouth and decided to wait for this Celestial Venerable to descend and for his own heavyweight leader to appear so that they could talk to each other themselves.

The Thunder-Controlling and Axe-Wielding Divine Lord, who had received the divine decree, and the Crimson-Bearded Heavenly King, whose divine soul avatar had just been destroyed, immediately accepted the order and withdrew.

When the divine armored soldiers who had besieged Jin'ao Island and blocked the entire Tiandao True Sect completely receded like a tide.
Seated at the heart of Jin'ao Island, Wang Xuanyang, his expression solemn and his hair and beard flying, gripped his sword without the slightest relaxation, only letting out a soft exclamation:
"Ok?"

Why did those bandits retreat?

He was somewhat puzzled, but after sensing it for a moment and confirming that there was indeed no trace of divine or immortal aura left, he surprisingly exhaled a breath of turbid air:
"Fortunately, I cultivated the Reincarnation Heavenly Art, awakening from my ignorance and transforming the wasted years into a higher realm. Otherwise, this would have been a catastrophic disaster!"

"But now the world is becoming increasingly turbulent, and even a Martial Saint can only protect himself. If one wants to create a pure land in this chaotic world..."

Wang Xuanyang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he secretly made up his mind:

"It seems that we must go to the remnant lineage and open the ancestral home of the sword path, 'Great Snow Mountain'."

"But once it starts, there's no turning back. This peaceful life in a corner will be gone forever."

Once the Heavenly Blade True Sect's alert is lifted.

Almost not long
On the sea, the Dragon Tooth warship from Jiangyin Prefecture sailed in, bearing the banners of "Dragon Elephant Orthodox" and "Marquis of Beicang".

Just looking at him from afar brought a smile to Wang Xuanyang's face. He knew almost without thinking that his good grand-disciple had returned from Beicang.

I originally thought that the crisis had been resolved by now, but...
Suddenly, the sky and the heavens changed color from that earth dragon cave!
It seems that the Heavenly Dao of the Great Xuan Realm has been hampered and affected. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth that martial artists originally absorbed by tempering their bodies is now restricted within the scope of Jiangyin Prefecture.
It's starting to get a bit obscure!
at the same time.

The ten thousand mountains of the Earth Dragon Cave truly resembled an 'earth dragon turning over,' and at the same time, a vast and divine sound resounded, spreading extremely far and wide:
"Central Yellow Divine Court, Vast Dharma Thunder Heavenly Venerable!"

"You have come to Great Xuan to see the White Mountains and Black Waters, and to negotiate with the Great Xuan vassal king!" (End of this chapter)
