Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 217: Evil Phoenix Palace

There are three treasures of Albizia julibrissin.
Love is entangled, joy is like smoke, and I will forever ascend to paradise without envying the immortals.

The Red Lotus of Love has been found by Yun Yi in the Broken Jade Palace. With those seeds, he only needs to cultivate it carefully for a period of time, and he can recreate the beautiful scene of "Love Entanglement" in the Buried Sword Valley.

Joyful smoke comes from a unique mineral called "smoke jade", which is now extinct. Those that have been excavated have been made into jade figurines guarding Paradise.

In this way, only "Buxianxian" has not yet appeared.

And it is also one of Yun Yi's main goals of this trip.

As the natal magic weapon of the former leader of the Hehuan Sect, Buxianxian is a pair of "dragon and phoenix rings". They are usually only the size of a palm and can be worn on the wrist as bracelets.

One of them is in the form of a coiled blue dragon, the other of a flaming phoenix feather. When the two touch, they simultaneously trigger the roar of a dragon and the cry of a phoenix. It can be used by anyone from the Return to Void Realm to the Hedao Realm, for both offense and defense, with endless uses.

Speaking of this pair of dragon and phoenix rings, they have a connection with Song Xinci's former favorite sword, the "Xisheng Sword", because they were made by the same master caster, and both used dragon scales and phoenix feathers in their forging.

In his previous life, Buxianxian fell into the hands of a mysterious female cultivator, most likely from Futian Pavilion. This woman's identity is a mystery, and she runs rampant across the land of Jiuzhou.

Therefore, this time Yun Yi was determined to seize Buxianxian and never let Futian Pavilion get it again.

In addition, Zhuque unexpectedly made a breakthrough in learning the "Life Creation Sutra", which was obviously very compatible with the pair of dragon and phoenix rings, so she could just take them away and refine them.

Yun Yi vaguely remembered that Buxianxian should be hiding in the sect leader's bedroom, so he decided to take Zhuque to look for the treasure immediately.

The two left Lanruo Hall, which had become a ruin. Yun Yi first used his divine sense to search the vicinity, but did not detect the breath of the other three shadows, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

There are many traps in Paradise, and maybe those three people are also entangled by some strange things.

According to his impression from the previous life, Yun Yi walked through several corridors, broke through an illusion of a formation filled with mist and clouds, and finally found the bedroom deep in Paradise.

Having learned from the previous experience of being discovered by Sangmen, the two men walked lightly this time, and used their spiritual power to eliminate the smell and traces, trying their best not to leave any loopholes.

The patriarch's bedroom was a vast palace crafted from white jade, known as the Nie Luan Palace. The jade was engraved with numerous dragon and phoenix designs, as well as scenes of men and women engaging in sexual activity.

Yun Yi couldn't help but take a few more glances, and immediately his blood started boiling, and even his mind became a little fuzzy. For a moment, it seemed as if the only thing in his mind was the matter of dual cultivation.

This is the subtle effect of the joy smoke. The longer anyone stays in the paradise, the more confused they will become.

The jade figurines in his eyes transformed into beautiful disciples dressed boldly, using charm to conceal their murderous intent.

Yun Yi shook his head vigorously, and the sword in his hand trembled. It seemed that the sword spirit was ready to stab its master at any time, using the pain to help him regain consciousness.

"Not really. I've seen the world." Yun Yi comforted the sword spirit, thinking that he and Song Xinci had been together day and night for three years, and no scenery could compare to hers.

As the saying goes, people who are used to eating delicacies from land and sea will occasionally miss simple meals.

Yun Yi, however, thought that if one could eat good food, he should eat good food.

Zhuque next to him did not have such strong self-control. His eyes gradually filled with lust, and when he looked at Yun Yi, his eyes were almost tearing.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and use your power!" Yun Yi showed no mercy to Hua Xiyu and snapped his fingers at Zhuque's forehead.

The pain made Zhuque wake up immediately, and then he practiced the Shengsheng Creation Sutra, and the lust in his eyes subsided.

She said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you have to be so harsh?!"

Yun Yi said leisurely: "If I don't hit you harder, I'm afraid you'll eat me in one bite."

Zhuque knew he was in the wrong, so he took the initiative to change the subject, saying, "This Ji Le Tian is really weird. I'm sure the people from Tian Can Sect won't feel comfortable with this either." Yun Yi said, "The others are fine. The only one we need to be wary of is that person named Qian Ji. He's long since cut off his evil roots and has no desires. I'm afraid these little tricks won't work on him."

"Is there really a man in this world who can completely abandon lust?"

"I don't know. I can't do it anyway."

The two men overcame the effect of the joyful smoke and walked into the Nieluan Palace, only to see that it was decorated magnificently and was extremely luxurious.

Suzaku: "Am I seeing things? That bed looks like... the Nine-Turn Silk Couch?"

Yun Yi: "It's the treasure you mentioned. It's carved from a single piece of blood marrow jade. Even if one person lies on it, they can practice dual cultivation. It's said that even those at the Hedao realm will have their bloodlines stimulated by it."

"Can your Sumeru Ring fit it?"

"It can't fit. And you don't need to get too excited. These treasures consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy to maintain Paradise. Now they are just for show."

Upon hearing this, Zhuque took another careful look and discovered that the Nine-Turn Silk Couch was gray and dark, without any precious light, and seemed to disappear into thin air if touched.

She pouted and said, "What a pity."

Yun Yi chuckled at this, pointed at the other treasures, and said, "See that colorful gauze curtain over there? It's called the Thousand Charming Curtain. It's a rare and hard-to-find fabric. I can't even imagine using it to sew clothes."

Zhuque: "Don't tell the embroiderer when you get back. I'm afraid she'll go crazy."

"There is also the Caesar Cauldron, which is specially used to refine elixirs used in dual cultivation. It can unconditionally improve the quality of elixirs."

It’s a pity that these treasures have no precious color and are actually no different from ordinary objects.

"Su Qing will definitely like it when she sees it." Zhuque squinted at them, "But this is for dual cultivation, you two probably won't be able to use it for the time being...right?"

She deliberately dragged out the sound to annoy someone.

Yun Yi pretended not to hear: "Let's go and find Buxianxian now."

Zhuque suddenly reached out and tugged at Yun Yi, then pointed to a golden bell in the corner of the room and said, "Strange, that bell seems to still have some residual spiritual energy. Do you want to bring it over and have a look?"

Yun Yi's expression changed: "Don't touch that."

"Why?" Suzaku was curious seeing him like this.

Yun Yi said unhappily, "That thing is called the Golden Bell of the Lock Yang. When it rings, it can extract the Yang energy of living things. It's not a serious thing, and many demon cultivators out there have it."

"Hehe, of course I recognize him." Zhuque found it funny when he saw Yun Yi's tense face.

Ever since coming to Paradise, I have been at a disadvantage, but now I have finally made a comeback.

Yun Yi couldn't help but glare at Zhuque, and hurriedly pulled her past many dazzling treasures and came to an ordinary-looking screen at the back of the hall.

The screen is embroidered with a scene of a dragon and a phoenix singing in harmony, symbolizing joy and auspiciousness.

Zhuque praised: "You can take this back and use it when you and the young lady get married."

Yun Yi: "Thank you so much."

After saying this, he pulled Suzaku with one hand and reached into the screen with the other, and the two were immediately swallowed up in it.
