Embers of Sword

Chapter 473 Ye Zu
Junshan Zhenren, who was like an old monk in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, raised his arm like swinging a sword, and the sword energy mixed with lightning directly cut off the head of the [Celestial Drum] at the root and pulled it up. The head that flew high up had a shocked and complicated expression. The Taoist robed child raised his head expressionlessly and looked at the head thrown away by the [Celestial Drum]. This scene was frozen in the sky full of paper snow. The snow was flying back and forth, and the entire white paper barrier continued to gather and shrink, and finally condensed into an afterimage reflected by the child's pupil.

This scene.

It is both a sign of the heart lake and an established fact.

Junshan exhaled a breath of turbid air, and after breaking through the Cave Heaven Realm, his whole body's breath became restrained. The violent wind and waves that swept across his soul all dissipated. At the moment of meditation, he saw countless scenes, and the scene of the [Celestial Drum]'s head being cut off was one of them... This attack was just an insignificant tiny wave in his long life, and the real "torrential wave" was still to come.

"escape!"

The first thing Junshan Zhenren did after coming out of meditation was to kill the [Celestial Drum], and the second thing was to quickly fly in the opposite direction of Wu Zexian.

The other end of the white paper barrier.

The golden and majestic holy light was enveloped by the pure white Dharma image and could not leave.

Lu Yuzhen held back Wu Zexian, but from another perspective, it was actually Wu Zexian who held back Lu Yuzhen.

From beginning to end, Wu Zexian never thought of giving up this "Brother Junshan" and escaping alone. On the contrary, everything he did was to help Junshan escape... The reason why he made up his mind was that when Junshan Zhenren regained consciousness, he sent him a ray of divine thought!
"Boom!"

There was a loud thunder in the dome, but this time it had nothing to do with the [Celestial Drum].

Junshan Zhenren summoned the Purple Sky Flying Sword and flew up with it. A ray of purple-green sword light turned into a thick thunder, sliding through the white paper barrier at an extremely fast speed. His goal was very clear. As long as he could get out of this barrier, the news of the rebellion of the three major sects would be successfully spread... Lu Yuzhen, who had wanted to delay Wu Zexian and put him in prison, had a gloomy expression. He snorted coldly, and took Wu Zexian's punch. He stretched out his palm towards Junshan Zhenren and clenched it in the air.

Countless white papers surrounded the sword light.

Even if a mountaintop cultivator at the Yangshen realm is held back by an enemy at the same realm and has no time to distract his attention, a casual attack from him is not something that the Yinshen can resist!

however.

The purple-green sword light, which was about to succeed and successfully hit the barrier of the barrier, suddenly turned around and snaked extremely unreasonably... This was not an "extreme reaction" under the blessing of divine thoughts, this was purely "advance prediction". The Taoist robed child piloted the Purple Sky Flying Sword and circled along the circular boundary of the white paper barrier with an incredible arc. The sword energy stirred up thousands of piles of snow, and countless white papers swarmed in like waves and tsunamis, but they all fell into the air!
"……Um?"

For the first time, Lu Yuzhen's eyes showed surprise.

Wu Zexian threw another punch.

This punch did not hit Lu Yuzhen's chest, but was aimed at the end point of the sword energy of the Taoist robed child. The mighty golden light gushed out like the breath of a real dragon, and the white paper barrier was shattered again, leaving a huge hole. The Purple Sky Flying Sword rushed out of the barrier, and the divine light of the martial arts saint body was surging, burning all the white paper chasing after it -

At this moment, standing on the flying sword, Junshan Zhenren looked back.

He looked towards Wu Zexian.

The white paper barrier is broken, this is a perfect opportunity to escape.

However, Wu Zexian showed no intention of escaping.

The two looked at each other, and Junshan Zhenren understood Wu Zexian's thoughts.

He doesn't want to leave, he wants to stay here.

The white paper roared, filled with murderous intent.

Junshan Zhenren gritted his teeth, no longer hesitated, and controlled the flying sword to turn into a long rainbow, rushing towards the direction of Qingfu Mountain.

……

……

"You had a chance to leave."

This white paper barrier floating in mid-air seems fragile, but it is getting stronger all the time.

The paper snow fell heavier and heavier.

The aura of this barrier is becoming stronger and stronger...

Wu Zexian punched twice to break the barrier. At this moment, he clearly felt that the strength of the barrier was several times stronger than before.

This level of confrontation.

The victory or failure is just a matter of a hair's breadth. Lu Yuzhen had previously paid a certain price in order to rescue Master Mo and Master Huanxi Zen... and now the exiled immortal Wu Zetian has also paid a price in order to allow Master Junshan to escape.

"leave?"

Wu Zexian smiled softly.

He watched the white paper barrier seal again, without showing any regret on his face.

he knows.

In terms of cultivation level, I am not as good as Lu Yuzhen.

In terms of timing and location... I am not at an advantage.

The most sensible approach.

Just find an opportunity to break the barrier and then escape.

"Aren't you going to leave?" Lu Yuzhen also smiled.

In fact, the situation that troubled him the most was that Wu Zexian refused the invitation of Paperman Dao and at the same time wanted to escape.

Even though he has great supernatural powers.

But to stop a Yangshen realm warrior who has cultivated a martial arts saint body from escaping... is almost a fantasy.

If Wu the Exiled Immortal ignored Junshan.

Then he would have escaped from here long ago.

The "reinforcement" of the white paper barrier takes time.

Many of his methods also need to be prepared.

"Actually, I should have come here earlier tonight."

Wu Zexian suddenly said.

Before leaving Qingfu Mountain, Junshan Zhenren sent a message through the Yangshen Jade Talisman.

"Oh?"

Lu Yuzhen was still smiling and didn't take it seriously.

"I heard that you have great connections in Southern Xinjiang..."

Wu Zexian asked softly: "You should know what happened today, right?"

Lu Yuzhen put his hands behind his back and said casually: "The paper man technique has been exposed. You are going to delay the general attack and ask the second Yang God to join the battlefield. I heard that it will take three days for all this to be settled."

"good."

Wu Zexian spoke coldly.

The fighting spirit in his eyes became louder and louder, and his voice became deeper and deeper: "But... you underestimated the determination of Da Chu to destroy the demons."

Lu Yuzhen narrowed his eyes and the smile on his face gradually faded.

Wu Zexian once again looked up at the sky. White paper covered the dome, and above the dark clouds, the wind and snow were howling...

The entire white paper barrier was submerged in heavy snow.

The whistling sound echoed.

However, above the clouds covered with dense snow and wind, there seemed to be an even more shrill whistling sound, coming from far away at an incredibly fast speed.

"You...know what's going to happen tonight?"

Lu Yuzhen frowned and spoke.

He suddenly understood why Wu Zexian had been looking up at the sky.

The reason why this guy was "late" was not because he was lazy, nor because he looked down on Bai Gui Mo Dao Ren.

But because...

After the news of Daojiu's exposure spread, Wu Zexian personally went to visit a cultivator of the same realm.

After entering the white paper cave.

Everything Wu Zexian did... was just procrastination.

He is waiting for the second Yang God!

"Someone in the library reminded me that the Paper Man Dao master likes to plan things... The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."

Wu Zexian said expressionlessly: "The big fish tonight seems to be Bai Gui Mo Dao Ren and the others. But in fact, you are the fisherman who is reaping the benefits."

"..."

There was no smile on Lu Yuzhen's face anymore.

He raised his head, his expression serious.

The sound of the sword energy became increasingly shrill and harsh.

Above the ceiling, the white paper broke, and a brilliant green sword light fell from the sky, aiming at the location of Lu Yuzhen Pure White Saint. The sword energy poured out like a sweet rain, and the sword pierced through the void, and the moment it fell, it bloomed with an unparalleled sense of "destruction"... The artistic conception of this sword was seven points similar to the "Realm of Destruction", and the meaning of determination was even more than that. Boom!
Lu Yuzhen floated back and flew away, a hundred feet away.

A sword fell.

Thousands of grass leaves shattered in an instant.

This sword energy that contained destructive meaning spread out, and the grass leaves within a radius of a hundred feet were instantly burned and turned into black ashes.

Lu Yuzhen’s dodging speed was already very fast, but he was still contaminated by a trace of sword energy.

His sleeves fluttered in the wind.

The snow-white cloak fluttered and settled, and the piece of white paper stained with sword energy quickly turned black. Even though Lu Yuzhen had cut it off immediately, the dark "burning intention" spread very quickly, covering the entire sleeve in an instant, and the snow-white cloak began to burn with a rumbling sound.

Lu Yuzhen frowned and waved his sleeves, forcibly clasping his hands together in the form of a pure white saint, trying to extinguish the sword energy...

But it still ended in failure.

finally.

He abandoned the entire cloak, threw it out in a rather embarrassed manner, and watched the cloak turn into ash in front of him.

"Flower burning style?"

Lu Yuzhen felt a little emotional and a little distressed, but more of it was satisfaction.

The Paper Man Dao has many hidden tricks.

But there are very few who can really lurk in the holy land family... Xiao Qi is the most important hidden chess piece. He is not interested in the sword moves of Baihua Valley, but only wants to secretly learn the last move "Burning Flowers".

Currently, in the entire Hundred Flowers Valley, there are less than five people who have comprehended the Burning Flower Style.

Able to perform to this level.

There is only one person.

Over the years, the world has gone through ups and downs, fortunes have changed, and the war of drinking poison has damaged the vitality of the Great Chu Dynasty... Many holy places and families have declined because of this. Baihua Valley is one of the very few holy places that have gone against the tide. The reason why it can occupy a place in Qingzhou is because there is a powerful ancestor who guards the mountain.

This ancestor was a cultivator of the same era as Zhao Chunyang of Dasui Sword Palace and Xiaoyaozi of Taoism.

Of course... in terms of cultivation realm, the guy from Baihua Valley cannot compare to the Sword Palace and the Taoist Sect.

But the territory of Qingzhou is large enough to cover the sky with one hand.

The area within a radius of a hundred feet was completely burned and flattened by the sword energy, and countless withered grass leaves that had turned black and turned into ashes were flying in the air.

One sword burns all the flowers.

Directly shatter the white paper barrier.

The snow-white sword light condensed into substance, swaying and falling in the center of the barrier. An old man in a red robe with snow-white hair and beard, who looked energetic, was suspended above the sword light. A strong wind blew and his sleeves fluttered.

“…Ye Zu.”

Wu Zexian finally waited for the person he was waiting for.

The majestic divine light that enveloped the martial arts saint's body could finally relax a little.

His nerves were no longer tense, and he slowly saluted in a respectful voice towards the robed figure hanging on the tip of the sword.

On the realm of spiritual practice.

Ye Zu is a head taller than him.

On seniority.

I am even more of a junior.

This gift should be given.

……

……

The sword energy that ignited the prairie gradually dissipated.

With a move of burning flowers, the white paper barrier was broken to make a living, and the whole wilderness became desolate.

"Master Wu..."

Ye Zu stood on the tip of the sword, looking at the man who had discarded his white cloak not far away, and whispered, "Is this the 'Paper Master' you mentioned?"

The demon-slaying in Southern Xinjiang was a grand event. The story of Taoist Qianyuan in the daytime had actually spread all over the capital... Wu Zexian rushed around in advance, visiting everywhere, hoping that a lord of a holy land would be willing to lend a hand. Unfortunately, most of the mountaintop cultivators who have cultivated to the Yangshen realm are indifferent. To cultivate to this realm, there is often a huge sect behind them that needs to be maintained. Every word and action of the mountaintop cultivators will provoke a huge amount of "cause and effect". If there is no sufficient reward, no one is willing to help for free.

Wu Zexian is an exception.

There has not been a "divine fetus proving the truth" in Da Chu for many years.

The previous one was Qin Zu, who guarded the dragon vein’s destiny.

It is said that those warriors who have proved their truth through force, after they have cultivated into Yang Gods, become more immune to "cause and effect" than other cultivators at the same level.

just.

Being stronger doesn't mean you can act recklessly and ignore the consequences...

Those old-fashioned Yang Gods still can't understand why Wu Zexian is so diligent and voluntarily takes on so many hard labors in the Da Chu Imperial City.

Maybe it was because he was too young, or maybe it was because he was influenced by Qin Zu... In short, this young Yang God had always been willing to work hard for the Great Chu Dynasty over the years. Such people, like the sun, burn too much and often die early.

Although there was a sudden change in the plan to attack the paper man.

But the vast majority of holy land owners are indifferent.

In their view……

No matter how powerful the Paper Man Sect is, it is nothing more than an evil sect hiding in southern border and will never see the light of day.

In this campaign to eliminate demons, each holy place has sent its most powerful elders and the most promising saints to help.

How can Papermanism turn the tables?
Wu Zexian hopes that the second Yangshen will help him...

The logic was right and the idea was good, but since the person from Renshou Palace did not speak, none of the Yang Gods agreed.

Except Ye Zu.

The sword cultivators of Baihua Valley were always quick to act. After hearing about the details of the incident in Nanjiang Demon Demon Slayer, Ye Zu nodded generously and accepted Wu Zexian's invitation. However, he was refining the "birth sword" and was at the most important juncture, so Wu Zexian needed to wait for a while. Originally, Wu Zexian was going to wait for Ye Zu to go south together. However, Junshan Zhenren could not delay, so he went ahead.

Good thing...

Ye Zu didn't let him wait too long.

"Yes, this person is Lu Yuzhen!"

Wu Zexian said in a deep voice: "Lu Yuzhen is guilty of a serious crime and has a deep mind! Please, Ye Zu, join me in killing this beast!"

The wind howled.

The white cloak burned completely in the air.

Lu Yuzhen put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Is this the legendary Burning Flower Style... This move is really powerful. If this sword penetrates the bones, I wonder how many people in the world can withstand it?"

"..."

Ye Zu had a blank expression on his face, and was about to activate his sword energy.

"Senior! Be careful!"

Wu Zexian hesitated for a moment, then said: "Lu Yuzhen has... the Fountain of Immortality!"

Ye Zu was stunned.

"What did you say?"

He frowned, somewhat unable to believe what he had just heard.

"Yes, I have confirmed it."

Wu Zexian took a deep breath, took an attacking stance, and said solemnly: "This guy... has the Fountain of Immortality. In this battle, even if it's two against one, we have to be careful."

The words fell.

The sword vibrated and exploded inch by inch.

The whistling sound of the sword energy rang out again, overwhelming the wind and snow.

"Is it?"

Ye Zu stared at Lu Yuzhen with a gloomy look: "...It's really terrible to hear this news."
