Embers of Sword

Chapter 470: The Mountaintop (Part )
Having learned from the previous lesson, Lu Yu really didn't dare to be careless this time.

He no longer chose to take the blow head-on, but instead dodged it with a virtual form, his entire body turning into countless pieces of paper snow that scattered on the ground, and before the splash, he suddenly exerted force and threw the white ghost back again, directly throwing it out of the barrier... The angle of Wu Zexian's punch was very tricky, if Lu Yuzhen took it head-on, he would be injured again and completely passive. If Lu Yuzhen dodged hastily, the killing power of this punch would engulf all the "white ghosts" behind Lu Yuzhen, and annihilate them.

From beginning to end.

Wu Zexian had no intention of letting this Yinshan traitor go.

Unfortunately.

In a Yangshen Realm duel, if you want to gain the upper hand, you need to make certain sacrifices.

Facing Wu Zexian's punch, Lu Yuzhen made a decision to give up... He saved Bai Gui. This punch did not hit anyone, but it actually hit the edge of the white paper barrier! The surging golden light descended like a sea, and the brute force gushed out. The white paper barrier that had just condensed had not been reinforced yet and could not withstand this force at all. A hole was instantly punched out!
The white confetti falling from the ceiling fell madly towards the broken hole, trying to fill it up.

The exiled immortal Wu Ze retreated a hundred feet and came to where the immortal Junshan was.

Lu Yuzhen, on the other hand, "concentrated" again at the zenith, looking as if he was still frightened.

"It's scary."

Lu Yuzhen stared at his palm and said with a smile: "If this punch hits the right spot... I won't be killed like this, right?"

Wu Zexian did not answer.

He knew very well that this was just for show.

Lu Yuzhen possesses the "Fountain of Immortality". If he were not crushed by his higher realm, who else could kill him?
"Maybe I can't kill you today."

Wu Zexian said softly: "But it doesn't matter...you are not far from death."

"Oh?"

Lu Yuzhen smiled and disagreed.

He fell slowly to the ground.

The two Yang Gods were only a hundred feet apart. The originally majestic falling snow now seemed a little thin because it was filling the gap in the barrier... Mo Daoist and Happy Zen Master, who were sandwiched between the two, were now completely petrified and unable to move.

The two leaders of the evil sect had no idea what to do. Of course they wanted to leave... but with Wu Zexian in front of them and Lu Yuzhen behind them, leaving from either side would mean death.

the most important is.

They got a glimpse of the secret of the "Fountain of Immortality".

"I got you……"

Lu Yuzhen put his hands behind his back and said in a gentle voice: "As long as the news of the 'Immortal Fountain' spreads, all the heroes in the world will flock to Southern Border... As the saying goes, a man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure."

No matter how powerful Lu Yuzhen is, he is just one person.

"You are indeed strong."

Wu Zexian was an extremely arrogant person, but he had to admit that Lu Yu was truly an extraordinary person.

He has already cultivated to the fourth level of Yang Shen.

But... Lu Yuzhen's realm is probably higher than mine!

The other party might be in the fifth realm, or perhaps the sixth realm or even higher...

How many years does it take to cultivate to this level?
Wu Zexian really admired Lu Yuzhen, who was able to stay away from the cause and effect for so many years and endure until the day he was born into the world and stir up the world at will!

Unfortunately.

None of this matters anymore.

Once the limelight fades, you will eventually die and disappear. All these false reputations are just floating clouds.

"Unfortunately……"

"No matter how strong you are, there is a limit to how strong you are."

Wu Zexian said expressionlessly: "The Taoist Xiaoyaozi, the Dasui Sword Palace Zhao Chunyang, Qin Zu, the Zen Master...any of them I just mentioned, as long as they take action, they can easily kill you with their own strength."

There are also differences between the Yang Gods.

In a life-and-death fight between people of the same realm, the Immortal Spring can certainly have a miraculous effect. But in the face of absolute strength crushing...

The Fountain of Immortality cannot reverse the situation.

Just like the battle just now by Bai Gui, even if he was carrying the complete "Immortal Fountain" and his opponent was Wu Zexian, the final outcome would be death.

Once the news that Lu Yuzhen is in possession of the "Immortal Fountain" is exposed, the one who will come to him will be the top-level Yang God.

The Taoist sect has been secluded from the world in recent years, and has not been involved in worldly affairs. All internal and external affairs of the sect have been taken over by Chongkan.

It was because Xiaoyaozi was in the Tianyuan Mountain, closing the gate of life and death to extend his life... If he could get this drop of "Immortal Spring", then why would he close the gate of life and death again? A drop of Immortal Spring would be enough to solve the problem of extending his life.

Likewise, there are Zhao Chunyang, Qin Zu...

Who among these people doesn’t want to get the “Fountain of Immortality”?
"That's right."

Lu Yuzhen sighed softly and said in agreement: "If the news of the Immortal Spring gets out, I will indeed be in a very bad situation... maybe even dead. The things you just mentioned can indeed easily kill me. But how can this news be spread?"

"..."

Hearing this, Wu Zexian had a blank expression on his face.

However, Taoist Mo and Zen Master Huanxi felt sad in their hearts.

When gods fight, innocent people will be affected.

The paper snow whistled.

A huge hole had just been blasted into the barrier. Even if white paper was flying around, it wouldn't be repaired that quickly.

The two looked at each other.

"Don't rush to despair."

Lu Yuzhen noticed the expressions of these two people.

He smiled faintly and said, "To be honest with you two, I did have the thought of killing you... But today is a happy day, so it's better not to get stained with blood. Anyway, you have already betrayed Da Chu, and there is no way back. If you are willing to be like Bai Gui, not only can I spare your lives, but I can also give you a wisp of 'Immortal Spring Vapor'."

"This……"

Taoist Mo and Zen Master Huanxi were stunned.

The two people's expressions became complicated...

Their attitude towards Paper Humanism has always been one of complete disgust, and before meeting tonight, they had never thought that the situation would turn out like this.

"and many more!"

Taoist Mo suddenly had an epiphany.

He sorted out the fragmented thoughts in his mind and realized something extremely absurd.

If Bai Gui's "Immortal Fountain Vapor" came from Lu Yuzhen, then this crusade against Paper Man Dao was a conspiracy from the very beginning. The person who shouted the loudest had already surrendered before it even started. Could there be anything more ridiculous than this in the world?
Obviously, the "betrayal" proposed by the Prince of Liguo...

It must be part of the plan.

Taoist Mo stared at Lu Yuzhen and said in a hoarse voice: "So the guy from Li Country is also helping you?"

"almost."

"The White Ghost wanted to 'live', so I gave him the Fountain of Immortality and let him 'live'. The prince of the Li Kingdom did not want Da Chu to easily control the southern border, so there was the 'betrayal' of the three major clans tonight."

Lu Yuzhen nodded and said with a smile: "Everyone contributes their own efforts and takes what they need, so everything will come naturally and smoothly... Sometimes the world is so simple, but if you want to gain something, you always have to lose it first. This is an equal exchange and also the price of cause and effect. If you want to survive, you always need to show me your sincerity."

Snow-white vapor emanated from the paper man.

"Now, it's time to make a decision."

He looked at Mo Dao Ren and Huan Xi Zen Master, and asked softly, "Do you want to leave standing with the Immortal Fountain? Or kneel here and die?"
