Embers of Sword

Chapter 263 The Divine Embryo
Lu Yu is really a very strange person.

The existence of paper dolls is itself an extremely unreasonable thing.

In just ten years, he became wealthy and powerful, and in the southern border area where demons were rampant, he overwhelmed the three major sects with deep roots. Without even showing his true self, Taoist Lu forced the leaders of the three major sects to join forces in secret.

How could such a person really have nothing to ask for?
There are people in this world whose happiness is priceless.

But if Lu Yuzhen didn’t have any selfish motives in setting up this plan in Dayue Kingdom... Xie Xuanyi didn’t believe it.

"You should know that it won't be long before the Da Chu royal family launches a campaign to exterminate the demons in southern Xinjiang."

Xie Xuanyi said calmly: "If the Dao Sect and the Sword Palace respond together, it won't be long before the Paper Man Sect will be uprooted."

"Yes."

Lu Yuzhen smiled.

This is undeniable.

The history of paper dolls is pitifully short.

Even if he was doing well in southern Xinjiang, he could not be compared with a behemoth like Taoism.

"Don't you care?"

Xie Xuanyi raised his eyebrows.

Lu Yuzhen has been in seclusion for many years and has never revealed his abilities in front of the world.

Now, he has saved everyone in Dayue Country, and even used his "Dongtian Dharma" to fight against the Peacock Lord...

This is actually a losing deal.

This guy, when he was negotiating with Peacock Lord, didn't seem like someone who was willing to suffer a loss.

"Actually, I don't care about 'Southern Border Demon Slayer'. I saved these people purely for your sake."

Lu Yuzhen said calmly: "I know that even if I tell the truth, you won't believe it... But it doesn't matter, I don't care whether you believe it or not. You can assume that I can gain some benefits by doing this. After the Northern Hunt is over, I will have more bargaining chips in my hands."

Xie Xuanyi suddenly remembered the three ship inspectors who had disappeared!
Prince Jiu chased the three of them and came to the Kingdom of Dayue.

But now.

The entire Dayue Kingdom was searched, but the three ship inspectors were nowhere to be found.

"You detained Da Chu's 'Yin Shen Proctor'."

Xie Xuanyi narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Are you going to use this as a bargaining chip?"

"You overestimate them and underestimate me."

Lu Yuzhen smiled and said, "After so many years, can't you see clearly? Anyone who can hold a high position in the Great Chu Dynasty is a ruthless person. They don't even have the courage to cut off their robes and arms, and they have been slaughtered in blood... In the eyes of those bigwigs, the three Yin Gods are just a little bit important... Just the three of them are far from enough to be the bargaining chips in the game of fighting."

These words gave Xie Xuanyi a lot of information.

First of all, there is one thing that can be confirmed.

The three ship inspectors are in Lu Yuzhen’s hands!
Just as Xie Xuanyi was about to continue speaking.

"Om..."

The command button on Xie Xuanyi's waist suddenly vibrated.

It turned out that the aftermath of the battle between the two Yang Gods had shattered Prince Jiu's seal on the nearby land. At this moment, the transmission of sounds by the soul was no longer restricted.

[“Young Master Xie, are you okay? The situation is urgent now, you must be careful…”]

Xie Xuanyi took out the message and glanced at it.

The first thing that caught my eye was the news about Yuan Yi.

The little girl recounted in detail what happened on the cloud boat.

The Northern Hunt was ambushed and killed this time, which was of an extremely bad nature. The Da Chu high-level officials are conducting a strict investigation... The cultivators from all sides will undergo the soul cleansing of the secret technique of the treasure weapon to restore the truth within the secret realm of the Dayue Kingdom.

In an anxious tone, she told Xie Zhen not to return to Da Chu easily.

The human race suffered heavy losses in this northern hunt... After Wu Zexian took action, Xie Sheng, Fang Hang, and Qin Wanyang did not return to the cloud ship, and their life plates were broken. The deaths of these three people caused thunder and lightning in Da Chu.

The Jiangning Xie family, Taishangzhai, and the Qin family are all first-class wealthy and powerful families!

When Yuan Yi heard the news, he quickly sent the message to Xie Zhen.

She was worried that Xie Zhen would return to Da Chu and be killed "unpreparedly".

When Xie Xuanyi saw this, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.

He sighed softly.

Bei Hailing's rescue made him have a good relationship with Baihua Valley. This Miss Yuan Yi really cares about him everywhere... If I keep sending him messages now, I'm afraid it will cause me unnecessary trouble.

"Miss Yuan, don't worry. Xie has a way to escape."

After Xie Xuanyi issued this message.

Lu Yuzhen teased, "Tsk tsk, if I'm not mistaken, it must be the news about the little girl in Baihua Valley? She can't forget you. Xie Xuanyi, you are really a disaster. You harmed Jiang Miaoyin in your previous life, and now you want to harm Yuan Yi. I think there is also that Deng Baiyi. I don't know how many people will be implicated because of you."

"..."

Xie Xuanyi said expressionlessly: "Yuan Yi has nothing to do with this matter, I will not let her be implicated."

"It is difficult to break the karma in this world, and it is difficult to cut off the red dust."

Lu Yuzhen glanced at the cloud ship flying away in the distance, waved his hand nonchalantly, and said with emotion: "Some things are not as simple as you think... Just treat me as a joke."

"This battle is important, so please pay attention."

Daoist Master Lu said solemnly, "It is rare for two Yang Gods to fight each other. This war is three-quarters due to the fall of Beihailing. Since the reversal of the great world's fortune, the contradiction between the demon country and the human race has become increasingly acute... This battle between the great Yang Gods is probably just the beginning. It won't be long before the two sides will have a second and third game. By then, it won't be as gentle as today."

……

……

While they were talking, in the distant sky, the battle became more and more intense.

The golden body of Wu Zexian's Yangshen almost supported the sky, pressing the surrounding snow-capped mountains under his body, and the flowing clouds in the sky were wrapped around his waist.

The true body of the Great Peacock Venerable was equally majestic. The colorful avenue turned into silk, wrapping around the golden body of the Exiled Immortal Yang God inch by inch.

These two Yang Gods each have their own thoughts.

The Peacock Lord is simply fulfilling his promise.

As for Wu Zexian, his job is to ensure that the Da Chu Yun ship leaves Li Lan Mountain smoothly.

The first thing he needs to do is to ensure that the human genius can return to the Great Wall in the North!
This kind of fierce battle is indeed interesting.

The two men, each possessing extraordinary powers, were restrained and neither dared to take any real ruthless action.

Xie Xuanyi silently watched the magical attacks of the two top monks.

The lake of my heart, which had been quiet for so long, suddenly trembled slightly.

In his previous life, Xie Xuanyi was just one step away from becoming a Yang God.

Although that life was a golden age, he did cause a lot of upheaval and excitement, but in the final analysis, he did not touch the level of Yang God.

The feeling of being at the top of the mountain.

Xie Xuanyi is always missing something...

The sword energy in the cave behind the Dashui Sword Palace is indeed sharp and beneficial.

But after all, it is the legacy of a dead person.

A truly strong person is one who can stand out from a bloody battle.

The great way is achieved through hundreds of battles, and the golden body is forged in a sea of blood.

If twenty years ago, instead of a peaceful time, there had been the "Battle of Drinking Poison" or the Chu-Li War, or other similar turmoil, Xie Xuanyi should have been able to complete the Yang God promotion and reach the top of the mountain more quickly.

"Golden body, cave heaven, magic, magical power, great way..."

Xie Xuanyi whispered softly.

In this battle, although the two Yang Gods were reserved, all kinds of magical powers emerged one after another.

Everyone wants to live forever.

If one attains Yang Shen, he will have a lifespan of several hundred years.

Theoretically, the state of Yang Shen has already transcended the mundane world, but unfortunately, when all kinds of magic are performed, they will be stained by dust. As long as one sets foot in the mortal world, his life span will be shortened.

The poisonous battle that year.

Anyone who enters the Yang God realm will suffer serious damage to their vitality. Even if they do not die, their life span will probably be shortened by several decades.

At this moment, this battle was a "worldly" battle between two Yang Gods, tainted with cause and effect.

Wu Zexian used this golden body to fight against the enemy.

This was what Xie Xuanyi saw with his own eyes, a physical divine fetus that had been cultivated to the highest level.

This golden statue has three heads and six arms, and there is still fresh sword energy lingering on the arms... This is probably what Zhao Chunyang left behind when he last stepped into the imperial city.

A truly talented and powerful person can gain insights even if he is defeated.

These sword energies.

Now it has become a part of Wu Zexian’s golden body!

On the other side, in order to "fulfill his promise" and retire as soon as possible, the Great Peacock displayed many magic weapons. The colorful avenue covered the sky, and the magic tools such as the staff, vajra, lotus seat, etc. wrapped up the peacock statue. For a moment, the treasure looked solemn and the Buddha's light appeared.

"Thousands of years ago, there was also a Buddhist sect in the Demon Country, preaching the Dharma."

Lu Yuzhen sighed softly, "It's a pity that everything turned to ashes in just a moment. It is said that when the Buddhist sect of the Demon Country was destroyed, it also left behind a lot of treasures. It seems that this peacock not only got the treasure of 'Mojin', but also other fortunes."

Xie Xuanyi stopped talking.

In his eyes.

The sounds of the entire world seemed to have disappeared, and the game between the two great Yang Gods occupied his entire mind.

Every punch thrown by the Exiled Immortal's golden body.

Every principle offered by the Great Peacock.

Everything was repeated in Xie Xuanyi's heart, frozen, and flowing backwards...over and over again.

A wisp of sword energy is slowly brewing in the lake of heart.

The black shirts billowed.

Xie Xuanyi stood still and lost in thought, his entire aura falling into extreme silence.

The creations in the Lotus River of Xuanshui Cave.

It didn't touch him.

But this battle... made him fall into a state of enlightenment.

"As expected of a sword immortal seen once in a thousand years, this foundation of the Great Dao is truly outrageous."

"The Dasui Sword Palace must have cultivated incense for a thousand years before it could wait for such an amazing talent."

Lu Yuzhen looked at the black-shirted young man beside him and said with emotion: "I just let you watch a few battles between Yang Gods, and you can enter a state of concentration. If you watch the dragon-killing battle of Dayue Kingdom later, won't you be enlightened again... I don't think you need to do anything, just pick more things and let you watch a few more fights between gods, and you can break through? If I give you another sixty years, who in the world can still be your opponent?!"

Having said that.

But Master Lu did not interrupt Xie Xuanyi's meditation.

Seeing that Xie Xuanyi had some insights, a smile appeared on his face, and it became even wider.

This battle did not last long.

After the Da Chu Yunchuan left Li Lanshan Realm, Wu Zexian took the initiative to put away his golden body.

He shattered the colorful avenue with one punch and retreated directly.

Seeing this, the Great Peacock did not pursue.

The two of them tacitly kept their distance from each other, and then left in the north and south respectively.

Crash.

The snow was flying heavily, and the paper scraps were flying with it.

Daoist Master Lu took out a snow-white cloak from his natal cave and put it on Xie Xuanyi very considerately. He put his hands behind his back and waited patiently.

This meditation did not last too long.

Half an hour later.

On the snowy mountain, Xie Xuanyi, who had fallen into silence, slowly woke up. He shook off the snow and wind on his shoulders and noticed this warm cloak.

"Don't worry. It's only been half an hour."

Lu Yuzhen said: "I am right, this battle is rare in the world. Looking at the whole Chu, except Qin Zu, no one has a higher attainment than Wu Zexian's golden body divine fetus... If you want to practice two sword ways, you must rely on yourself to open up the path of 'divine fetus'."

"..."

Xie Xuanyi raised his eyebrows.

He knew that Lu Yuzhen was always paying attention to him.

But this guy is just like a worm in my stomach.

"In fact, even without the God Fruit, it is still possible to create a perfect 'God Fetus'."

Lu Yuzhen added: "Sword cultivators value the control of weapons. No matter which sword path they practice, they must use their natal flying sword to condense the cave heaven and use it as a carrier. Even Zhao Chunyang is no exception... Once they reach the Yang God realm, their natal cave heaven settles and spreads, becoming a cave heaven blessed land. Improving the quality of flying swords becomes particularly critical. Although your [Chenxia] is not bad and is enough to carry the weight of the Yang God realm, what if you want to go a step further?"

Xie Xuanyi was stunned.

Since ancient times, Dasui Sword Palace has been practicing in this way, with the natal cave heaven being guarded by the natal flying sword.

As long as the sword is alive, the man is alive; when the sword dies, the man dies.

This is also the reason why the first thing he did after waking up in Yuzhu Town was to look for [Chronic Illness].

"A warrior has no cave, the spirit he condenses is himself."

Lu Yuzhen looked up at the sky. After this fierce battle, the sun set and night fell. There was already faint starlight emerging: "It is said that a thousand years ago, the stars in the sky corresponded to the acupoints of the human body, and also to the godly positions of the warriors. If you really want to achieve the highest realm, you must enjoy the admiration of thousands of people and become your own 'god'!"

These words.

A bold and colorful stroke was made in Xie Xuanyi's heart.

He now practices two avenues.

If the natal cave is forged, instead of using a flying sword to support it, what if it is... one's own "divine fetus"?

There is both a cave and a divine fetus.

In the cave heaven, on the shrine, what is enshrined is not a flying sword.

But...myself!
"The great way of the world is in heaven."

Lu Yuzhen said leisurely: "But if you really want to ascend, the world will be trampled under your feet. Heaven and earth are just a matter of turning your hand. How many people in the world understand this truth, and how many people can do it?"

These words are truly arrogant.

But Master Lu does have the qualifications to be arrogant.

The pure white image of the saint apparently integrated the three religions into one.

His ambition is more than what is revealed on the surface.

Seeing Xie Xuanyi didn't answer.

Lu Yuzhen smiled and came forward: "Don't you think it's not fun enough? Do you want me to find a way to call these two back and have another fight?"

If others understood this frivolous tone, they would definitely take it as a joke.

But this Taoist master's style of doing things has always been like this...so this sentence doesn't sound like a joke.

Unfortunately.

Xie Xuanyi refused to buy it and said calmly, "Okay, call them back now. I'd love to watch another show."

"Do you treat Yang Shen as a domestic animal? Or do you treat me as a deity?"

As expected, Lu Yuzhen smiled and took a step back, saying, "Just kidding, I don't have that much ability, but if you want to continue watching, there is a more exciting scene in Dayue Country."

Xie Xuanyi took a deep breath.

He actually wanted to know what Lu Yuzhen was up to by keeping him here.

so far.

He didn't suffer any loss and just got a good fortune for free.

"Of course I want to watch the Great Moon Kingdom's dragon-killing battle."

Xie Xuanyi said calmly: "You don't have to tell me, I won't miss it either."

Lu Yuzhen slightly turned sideways, tore the void apart with ease, and ignited a door with Yuan Fire.

"……please!"
