God of Pets

Chapter 191 Chunyang Temple

Chen Guan didn't feel anything unusual, it was no different from ordinary stone steps.

You can't see what's going on above from below. Only when you reach the end of the stairs do you find that there is a large platform above. The quaint Chunyang Temple is built on the platform.

The three words "Chun Yang Temple" are engraved on the stone plaque above the gate. It looks like it has gone through countless years and the invasion of wind and rain, and has become mottled and gray. The three words "Chun Yang Temple" are also blurred.

Next to Chunyang Temple, there is a stone staircase leading to the higher part of Cuiyun Mountain.

"There is actually a Taoist temple in such a mysterious place. When was it built? And who built it?" Chen Guan was shocked.

"Continue to explore the way up." Xiu Jieming just glanced at Chunyang Temple and had no intention of exploring. He just asked Brother Kouzi to continue exploring the stone steps.

Brother Button was just about to go when he suddenly heard a squeak. Everyone shuddered involuntarily and took up fighting stances. Some even summoned their pets and stared in the direction of Chunyang Temple.

The originally tightly closed door of Chunyang Temple suddenly opened a crack, which was getting bigger and bigger, but no one or mysterious spirit was seen inside, as if the door had opened by itself.

The inside of the gate was shrouded in mist, and one could not see what was inside at all. It was just a hazy scene.

This situation was something Xiu Jieming and the others had not anticipated. The Xiu family had sent people into Cuiyun Mountain before and knew of the existence of Chunyang Temple, but they had never seen the gate of Chunyang Temple open.

Xiu Jieming asked everyone to form a defensive formation, and at the same time, everyone summoned their pets. If there was any abnormality, the pets would definitely be the first to go.

hum!
A trembling sound was heard from inside the gate, and the next second, three sword lights flashed out and turned into three long swords that were suspended vertically in front of the gate.

At the same time, a mysterious voice sounded from all directions: "I have three swords. One sword can cut off ignorance and troubles; the second sword can cut off ignorance and anger; the third sword can cut off nameless greed."

"If you want to pass my sword, you must pass three levels. Those who pass one level will obtain the sword technique, those who pass two levels will obtain the sword secrets, and those who pass all three levels can inherit my Pure Yang Sword Dao lineage."

The sound came from the void, as if it was ringing in all directions. It was impossible to tell where it came from, but it seemed to come from Chunyang Temple.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment; this situation was something they had never expected.

Wen Yutao, Xiu Jieming, and the others had a flicker of surprise in their eyes. Wen Yutao bowed respectfully to Chunyang Temple, then raised his voice and asked, "Excuse me, what are these three levels?"

"The first level... just take my sword and you will pass..." One of the three swords floating in the air flew forward for a distance. As it flew out, a transparent human-shaped light and shadow appeared behind it. It looked like a ghost or a spirit. All that could be seen was a spirit in white clothes, but no one could tell what it looked like.

He just stood there holding the sword, his eyes seemed to be looking at everyone.

"Are pets allowed to fight?" Wen Yutao asked respectfully again.

"Yes." The crisp voice of the white-clothed spirit sounded again.

"Commander, let me try it first?" Wen Yutao turned to Xiu Jieming for instructions.

"Okay." Xiu Jieming agreed.

Upon hearing this, Wen Yutao summoned a stone spirit pet and headed towards the sword spirit in white.

The level of the stone spirit was not very high, a level 17 stone spirit. It looked like a stone man that had become a spirit. It swung its stone fist and smashed towards the white-clothed sword spirit.

The sword in white swung lightly, seemingly without much effort, but the level 17 stone spirit was split into two halves by the sword and died on the spot.

"Again." Wen Yutao summoned a pet again, this time it was a level 28 Iron-Armored Warrior.

"Everyone only has one chance. You no longer have one. If you attack me again, it will be considered a provocation," the White Sword Spirit said coldly. Wen Yutao was a little stunned, but he didn't dare to let the Iron-Armored Mystic attack the White Sword Spirit again, so he had to retract it.

"Commander, could you let me have a try?" Deputy Commander Zhao Zhikai saluted and said.

"Since we all encountered this opportunity together, naturally everyone has a share. You can all give it a try." Xiu Jieming said.

Zhao Zhikai no longer hesitated and summoned a red-haired monkey pet that was only half a human's height.

Wen Yutao wanted to use the powerful defense of the Stone Spirit or the Iron-Armored Mystic to block the attack of the White-Clothed Sword Spirit, but Zhao Zhikai took a different approach.

The red-haired monkey is small in size, but very fast, and has the secret skill of a monkey with a hundred changes in body shape. He wants the red-haired monkey to avoid the attack of the white-clothed sword spirit.

Under the command of Zhao Zhikai, the red-haired monkey came to the white-clothed sword spirit.

The white-clothed sword spirit didn't waste any words and swung his sword at the red-haired monkey.

The red-haired monkey immediately exerted its strength, its body moving as fast as lightning, leaving behind a trail of afterimages, as if there were many red-haired monkeys appearing at the same time, making it impossible to tell which one was its real body. It wanted to use this to avoid the sword of the white-clothed sword spirit.

However, it dodged the sword but failed to dodge the sword's energy, and was directly cut in half by the invisible sword energy, with blood, flesh and internal organs scattered all over the ground.

Everyone couldn't help but frown. The red-haired monkey was already the fastest pet among the three awakenings, but it couldn't even dodge a sword.

Next, several practitioners who had reached the third awakening summoned their pets to challenge the Sword Spirit in White. However, among so many pets that had reached the third awakening, none of them could withstand a single blow from the Sword Spirit in White.

For a moment, the platform was littered with corpses of many mysterious spirit pets. Not to mention passing three levels, even one level was impossible to pass.

Other practitioners of the second level of awakening didn't even dare to try it.

The third awakening pets were all killed instantly with one sword, so wouldn’t it be a suicide mission to release the second awakening pets?
As for the practitioners of Yijue, there is only Chen Guan in the team.

"Let me take your sword." When no one tried again, Xiu Jieming slowly walked towards the white-clothed sword spirit. He did not use a pet, but walked up himself.

"Brother...it's too risky..." Xiu Yingmei grabbed Xiu Jieming's arm.

"Commander, the overall situation is more important. It is not worth taking risks now. Since we know there is a secret here, we can bring people here next time." Wen Yutao also advised.

"It's okay." Xiu Jieming comforted Xiu Yingmei and Wen Yutao, and strode towards the white-clothed sword spirit.

Xiu Jieming stood in front of the white-clothed sword spirit. Because of his strong figure, the white-clothed sword spirit looked a little petite.

"Please." Xiu Jieming made an opening gesture, which had no practical effect and was just a courtesy in the duel.

"Please." The sword spirit in white returned the greeting, then swung his sword without hesitation.

The sword was extremely fast and seemed to be moving at random, but it was fast enough for people to see. However, their nerves did not have time to react and they could only watch as the tip of the sword pierced their eyebrows.

When the tip of the sword was only three inches away from Xiu Jieming's eyebrows, it seemed to stop in place.

Xiu Jieming put his hands together in front of his forehead and actually held the sword between his palms. With a little force, he snatched the sword from the white-clothed sword spirit's hands. It seemed that he had no effort at all.

"I'm sorry." Xiu Jieming held the sword with both hands and presented the sword back to the white-clothed sword spirit.
