Embers of Sword

Chapter 471: The Mountaintop (Part )
Live standing up or die kneeling down?
For some people, this is a dilemma.

However, this is not the case for the monks in Southern Xinjiang. Even if they become the leaders of a sect, the things engraved in their bones will not change.

“…I want to live!”

Zen Master Huanxi gave the answer without much hesitation.

the other side.

Mo Dao Ren also made the same choice.

The two men activated their escape technique and flew towards the direction where Lu Yuzhen was. The Paper Taoist with his robe fluttering looked at the two "loyal dogs" who had sincerely converted and a smile appeared on his face. He looked at Wu Zexian and the meaning in his eyes was very clear.

You see, it’s not that difficult to keep the secret of the Fountain of Immortality.

It would be enough if Mo Dao Ren and Huan Xi Zen Master could also become the owners of the "Immortal Fountain".

“A dog can’t change its habit of eating shit.”

Wu Zexian sneered, stepped forward again, and punched hard.

Lu Yuzhen also stepped forward and rushed out, brushing past Taoist Mo and Zen Master Huanxi. He raised his hands and gently patted the two men on the back, and a wisp of snow-white vapor was injected into their bodies.

Taoist Mo and Zen Master Huanxi did not stop at all.

Both of them felt the terrifying murderous intent behind them... Wu Zexian really had the intention to kill!
Following this slap, the two of them fled from the white paper barrier without even looking back.

boom!
This punch hit Lu Yuzhen again.

However, this time, it was no longer a one-sided situation. The moment the two collided, countless white papers condensed into a majestic pure white Dharma image in front of Lu Yuzhen. It was a "majestic saint" in the shape of a Bodhisattva, with his arms folded and clasped together.

Wu Zexian's fists were completely blocked, and the Pure White Saint suffered a severe impact and kept shaking.

Lu Yuzhen's goal was to throw the Taoist Mo and the Happy Zen Master, whom he had just subdued, out of the barrier, so this majestic statue only lasted for a moment before it was immediately withdrawn.

On the other side, Wu Zexian also chose to retreat.

It was not that he didn't want to continue the pursuit, but the moment he stood up and threw a punch, a burst of paper snow fell sharply from the sky, with a clear target, accurately piercing Junshan Zhenren who was in a state of meditation.

So after a punch was thrown——

The two men immediately separated and each retreated a hundred feet.

The exiled immortal Wu Ze retreated back to the side of Junshan Zhenren, opened up the golden light that protected his body, and bounced away all the paper snow.

He glanced at the young boy in Taoist robes who was still in a state of "meditation" behind him, his expression slightly gloomy... Brother Junshan's "timing of entering meditation" was really too bad. The situation was different at this moment. After Lu Yuzhen joined the battlefield, he gradually lost control of the situation.

but.

To Wu Zexian's surprise, the paper snow fell down without causing any harm.

This snow seems fierce, but it is actually gentle.

It fell on the protective golden light, but there was no crackling sound, but instead it made a hissing sound and dissipated silently.

Even if he didn't turn around to defend himself, this snow of paper wouldn't kill anyone...

"I've always been very accurate in judging people."

Lu Yuzhen put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Master Wu, from the first moment I saw you, I knew you were a loyal and righteous person. When Junshan gave you advice, you would never stand idly by, but... a loyal and righteous person will always be burdened by his loyalty."

Because of Junshan, Wu Zexian had to give up the pursuit.

At this moment, the aura of Taoist Mo and Zen Master Huan Xi disappeared in the white paper barrier.

At this point, all three evil sect leaders escaped.

Wu Zexian looked up at the ceiling, his expression solemn and silent.

The situation is dire... but not hopeless.

As long as the rebellion intelligence of the three major sects is leaked and the news of Lu Yu's "Immortal Fountain" is announced to the world, the situation will be reversed.

Now the only difficulty.

It is about how to send Brother Junshan out of the "White Paper Barrier".

The snow was flying. "Your brother Junshan is truly extraordinary."

Lu Yuzhen stood at the gap of the white paper barrier with his hands behind his back. He smiled at Junshan Zhenren who was in a state of meditation and said leisurely, "Throughout the ages, how many people have tried desperately to fight for a subtle chance of reincarnation, but all ended in failure... Junshan Zhenren not only succeeded, but also comprehended the unprecedented third realm of Tao."

"..."

Wu Zexian's pupils shrank slightly. The third realm of Tao?
From the moment he entered into meditation, he felt that the aura of Junshan Zhenren had changed.

A cultivator in the Cave Heaven Realm.

The aura of Tao emanating from his body actually made him feel mysterious.

Is this the "third realm of Tao" that Lu Yuzhen mentioned?

In his previous life, Junshan Zhenren was a genius in Taoism second only to Xiaoyaozi. Not only did he practice thunder magic to perfection, his swordsmanship was also the best in the world. Because of this, Junshan Zhenren could serve as the co-master of both Taishang Zhai and Yuqing Zhai... In that life, he comprehended the "Dual Tao Realm".

Looking at the history of thousands of years, heroes are numerous in the world, but those who can comprehend the "Dual Dao Realm" are absolutely rare.

As for the "Three Dao Realms"...

This is unheard of!

"Such a stunning talent, dying here like this, isn't it a pity?"

Lu Yuzhen said in a gentle voice: "Brother Wu, if you don't consider yourself, at least you should consider Brother Junshan. If you are willing to reconcile, I can take a step back. There is no need to fight tonight, no need to shed blood... You and I will turn hostility into friendship, and from now on we will be brothers as close as brothers."

Wu Zexian was silent.

Only then did he understand Lu Yu's real purpose.

As the words fell, a wisp of snow-white vapor emerged.

Lu Yuzhen raised his palm to show his sincerity. This was a complete "Immortal Fountain", which was more than ten times more powerful and abundant than the water vapor given to Taoist Mo, the Zen Master Huanxi. The breath of life contained in it was even more rich and condensed into substance. After this drop of water emerged, the entire barrier was shaking, and thousands of grass leaves and flying paper scraps all bowed to Taoist Zhi.

The scent emitted by the Immortal Fountain is so tempting.

Even the spirits of plants and trees cannot resist it.

"Brother Wu...if you accept this 'Immortal Fountain'."

Lu Yuzhen said softly: "From now on, you will be my most respected guest of honor."

"Are you bribing me?"

Wu Zexian smiled.

He looked at the drop of immortal spring, and his gaze could not help but linger there for a moment longer.

he knows.

If you swallow this drop of immortal spring, the "hidden dangers" caused by years of martial arts training and physical training will be cured immediately.

One's own combat power can at least be raised to a higher level.

A fight for life and death.

Even when facing the existence of the fifth level of Yang God, he is not afraid at all.

This temptation...

How many people in the world can resist?
Wu Zexian laughed at himself, clenched his fists lightly, and relaxed his muscles and bones. A slight popping sound came from inside his bones, and his whole body became relaxed, but his murderous intent became even more fierce.

He exhaled a breath of turbid air: "What if I refuse?"

"…Then I'm afraid this night will not end well."

Lu Yuzhen sighed with some regret.

He turned his wrist and took back the fountain of immortality.

"Brother Wu, I respect you."

Lu Yuzhen said calmly: "I will take the next battle seriously...but, can you still save Junshan Zhenren's life?"
