Immortal Road.

Chapter 276: The Sixth
Zhong Shenxiu and Young Master Jiuyou were shocked and felt that the situation was not good.

The timing of this intervention by Master Xun Gu was perfect!
Not too early, not too late, just at the moment when the situation is reversed.

If he came out earlier, Master Chang and Master Yu Dao would apparently have the upper hand and would obviously not cooperate with him. They might even join forces with them and the four of them would expel this person together.

If he comes out later, Master Chang and Master Yu will completely lose their fighting power. If he jumps out again, he will be alone and unable to compete with the two of them.

But at this moment, Master Huichang and Taoist Heyu had not yet been defeated. The appearance of Lin Shan gave them hope. The three of them reached a consensus in an instant, joined hands and formed a powerful force in an instant, and the outcome was still unknown.

Zhong Shenxiu spoke with sincerity and advice:

"Master Lin, I am not exaggerating. You really shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess. Master Huichang and Taoist Yu are clearly exhausted and can't help you much. How can you be so confident to face the two of us?"

While holding back the two veteran Jindan masters, Young Master Jiuyou also persuaded them with ease:

"Brother Zhong is right! Sect Leader Lin, the two of us are determined to capture Lingjian Qingguyan today. Although your move of catching the cicada while the oriole is behind is brilliant, you are still alone and cannot defeat four hands with two fists. It is better to leave as soon as possible."

Master Huichang and Taoist He Yu were directly ignored, and their self-esteem was greatly hurt.

"Wuyazi! You dare to be distracted when fighting with me? Who are you looking down on?"

Young Master Jiuyou curled his lips:
"Don't mention it. I really look down on you. You two old antiques are almost dead, but instead of thinking about how to go to Hongya Cave to fight for the Luyu stalactite, you have wasted all your disciples and a lot of blood and mana to fight for a spiritual object. Don't you think this is putting the cart before the horse?"

Zhong Shenxiu echoed the sentiments and exposed the scars of the two men:

"Brother Wuyazi, what you said is wrong. Master Huichang and Taoist Heyu have practiced for so many years, but they are still in the early stage of Golden Elixir when their time is up. Even if they get the Luyu stalactite to extend their lifespan for a few decades, what good will it do? Can they break through to the Nascent Soul stage or what?"

The young master of Jiuyou suddenly realized:

"So, they know that they are too weak to compete for the Luyu stalactite. Even if they get it by chance, they can only survive. It is better to fight for Lingjian Qingguyan here and save their own face!"

He didn't leave and smacked his lips:
"These two are quite self-aware!"

These words are so cruel that they are like stabbing a knife into one's heart.

Master Huichang and Taoist Yu were so angry that they screamed loudly.

"Junior, this is too much!"

At this time, the two of them were of one mind, which was rare. Master Hui Chang took out the "green plums" that were a specialty of his own plum blossom forest and shared them with Taoist He Yu to help him recover his magic power. The two of them fought and recovered at the same time, and kept Young Master Jiuyou firmly in place.

The rest of the battlefield will be handed over to the two immortal geniuses, Zhong Shenxiu and Lin Shan, to see who will be more victorious.

The young master of Jiuyou was secretly delighted, and began to slow down his movements, deliberately letting them go, and concentrating on finding out what methods the two had, which would facilitate his future actions.

Zhong Shenxiu no longer thought about taking the treasure at this time. He recalled the Taiyuan Guizang Qi to protect his body, and his heart was tense as if facing a powerful enemy.

He saw that what he had just said not only failed to scare Lin Shan away, but instead aroused the common hatred of the enemy among Hui Chang Shangren and Yu Dao Ren. He suddenly pulled himself out of the situation and fought one-on-one with Xun Gu Sect Leader, knowing that he had fallen into Wuyazi's trap.

However, although he and Wuyazi each had their own ulterior motives, they were at least allies on the surface and there was no way they could tear each other apart, let alone reveal too many things to this person.

As a genius in the immortal way, Zhong Shenxiu has been constantly ambushed and assassinated by various groups since he was a child, so he often feels that "there are always villains who want to harm me", so it is natural for him to be on guard.

He always felt that this person had ill intentions towards him, but he had been using him to explore along the way, but he didn't expect that he would end up shooting himself in the foot.

Next, he and the leader of Xun Gu would have a big fight. If the fight got out of control and he was forced to use his trump cards, Wuyazi would see through it all and he would be in a passive position in the future.

In his eyes, Wuyazi is no less threatening than Lin Shan!

However, as a rising star in the State of Lu who has gained fame in the past few decades, and the only genius in the immortal way before Lin Shan was exposed, he also has his own pride.

His every move represents the reputation of Bailu Academy. He cannot give in so easily. Sometimes he has to fight, after all, he is young and energetic.

Being an opponent of Lin Shan, a genius in the immortal way, he also had expectations in his heart.

Lin Shan didn't have too many thoughts at this time. He didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he took advantage of the time when Master Huichang and Taoist Yu could still help him delay and get Lingjian Qingguyan. Otherwise, when Young Master Jiuyou was free, who knows what might happen.

This time it was his turn to perform a trick. He put one hand behind his back, and a ball of black mist suddenly disappeared into the mountain wall.

He raised his other hand and controlled the sword remotely. The small sword in his palm flew away and shot towards the opponent in an instant with his flexible manipulation.

Zhong Shenxiu didn't care about the small water blue sword, although it looked very powerful, making him wonder if it was a top-level magic weapon. However, he had the Taiyuan Guizang Qi, so this thing was enough to protect himself.

Taiyuan Guizang Qi is a breath of innate spiritual energy. Once refined and absorbed into the body, it can protect its master on its own without the need for a cultivator's control. It can be said to be an essential means of self-defense at home or when traveling.

No matter how Lin Shan used the Broken Water Sword in various ways, moving it left and right, drifting spiritually, and using unexpected angles, it was all blocked by the ball of white light and could not get close at all.

"This treasure is so powerful!"

Lin Shan was secretly envious. With this spiritual energy, he would not be afraid of sneak attacks at all. It was simply a perfect means of defense, better than defensive magic weapons, because he did not need to concentrate on controlling it, saving both worry and effort!
Is this the person with great luck?

How come I never find any treasure?

Lin Shan recalled his journey and realized that all the treasures were either snatched by himself or enhanced by strengthening the panels. There had never been any good thing that fell from the sky.

"I, Lin Shan, have come this far entirely through my own efforts, and never relied on anything from God."

He detested this kind of unearned gain.

With a shake of his wrist, the two pitch-black iron chains of the storage bracelet stretched out infinitely, crossing in front of him, strangling and attacking like swimming fish.

The two darts at the end of the chain spun around, causing the phantom light to shift, like a cunning poisonous snake.

Young Master Jiuyou, who was paddling over there and secretly watching here, was puzzled.

Why does this magic weapon look so familiar?

Zhong Shenxiu held the pen in his hand and painted in the air. The whole world was his canvas, and he could paint as he pleased.

I saw him splashing ink to draw circles, which were linked together to form a set of rings, trying to wrap the iron chain and limit its space for expansion and contraction and dancing.

Relying on his powerful spiritual sense, Lin Shan was able to dodge the attacks narrowly every time. When he couldn't dodge, he would directly use the darts on the tip of the rope to violently break them, passing through the rings and arriving in front of Zhong Shenxiu.

"Bang Bang~"

After two muffled sounds, the rope dart was knocked aside. It turned out that the Taiyuan Guizang Qi was protecting its master on its own. Once any hostile person approached, it would come to block. Its reaction was incredibly fast. It had just knocked the rope dart away, and then it blocked the flying sword.

However, Lin Shan’s pair of darts are no longer the same as before. After being meticulously modified by the Black Skull Demon Lord, they are not only smoother to operate, but they even have a unique hidden weapon.

"Puff~"

"Chichi~"

Two streams of black and smelly liquid spurted out from the poison sac under the dart, and suddenly poured towards Zhong Shenxiu who was still drawing circles. Fortunately, Taiyuan Guizang Qi reacted quickly and turned around in time to intercept the two streams of poisonous water for him.

However, this poisonous water is obviously not ordinary. It is the unique formula of the Black Skull Demon Lord in the world of hell, which is specially designed to defile spiritual treasures. The Taiyuan Guizang Qi was directly corroded into black and white.

"Chichi~"

Puffs of burnt smoke rose from the white light. It was as if the Taiyuan Guizang Qi had accidentally fallen into a stinky ditch, or was thrown into a crematorium, directly polluting most of it.

"?!"

Zhong Shenxiu stopped drawing circles and broke out in a cold sweat. He cursed Lin Shan inwardly for being insidious and vicious for equipping his magic weapon with such a hidden weapon. He almost fell into the trap when he was not careful!

Looking at the power of the poisonous water, if it really fell on him, he would be skinned alive if not killed!

Fortunately, I have Taiyuan Guizang Qi to protect me.

No, my baby, what happened?
Zhong Shenxiu watched the ball of white light tumbling spiritually, the black inside spreading, the surface still emitting smoke, and he could hear the bubbling sound from inside. He could not help but feel anxious. "What did you do to it?"

"do not know"

Lin Shan spread his hands with an innocent look. He didn't know what was going on. This was really a pleasant surprise.

I thought it was just a fancy modification, but I didn't expect the Black Skull Demon Lord to be so powerful. The formula of this poison is really good. I will go back and ask for more from him.

Zhong Shenxiu watched Taiyuan Guizang rolling around in pain, and he felt heartbroken too.

"What kind of poison is this???"

“I said I don’t know.”

Lin Shan really didn't know, but it didn't affect him from striking while the iron was hot. He commanded the Broken Water Sword and the Rope Dart to attack again. Anyone who didn't seize the opportunity was a fool.

Zhong Shenxiu originally wanted to resist on his own, but Taiyuan Guizangqi was so loyal that he helped his master to fight the enemy even when he was unable to take care of himself, and he resisted Lin Shan while emitting black smoke.

After a while, the pure white light turned into a mixture of black and white, which made Zhong Shenxiu feel heartbroken.

He pointed at Lin Shan's magic weapon, darting and gritting his teeth in hatred.

"What kind of magic weapon is this? Why is it so vicious?"

Lin Shan was very proud.

"The Iron Chain Dart is the magic weapon of Qiu Qianren, the guardian of Jiuyou Sect. I took it for myself after I killed him. How does it feel? Is it exciting?"

The young master of Jiuyou Sect over there almost popped his eyes out!
Good guy!
Qiu Qianren’s magic weapon also has this function!
How come this young master doesn't know?
Could it be that the old slave is hiding something from me?
No wonder he went to Lu State and provoked a tough guy. He didn't listen to my repeated warnings before he left to keep a low profile. He even ignored the overall situation and wasted star power on his own. He even asked for the support of the Star Lord projection.
The most important thing is that he lost my Star Gate Device! He deserves death!
The young master of Jiuyou Sect hated Protector Qiu so much that he wanted to grind him into ashes.

He didn't recognize the "Iron Chain Dart" at first, mainly because the Black Skull Demon Lord had modified it in a rather gorgeous way, especially the surface work was too good. It was obviously just two iron chains, but then a bunch of incomprehensible patterns were forcibly engraved on them. The streamlined shape of the dart was also quite different from before.

What’s more important is that this poison sac could actually contaminate Zhong Shenxiu’s innate spiritual energy, which no one expected.

Zhong Shenxiu couldn't bear to see Taiyuan Guizang Qi continue to suffer, so he simply put it away, thinking of finding an opportunity to purify it in the future.

An important means of self-defense was suddenly lost, and he was somewhat stretched to the limit in the face of Lin Shan's attack. After all, Lin Shan's soul power was strong, and the power of his magic weapon was not comparable to that of an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator.

The flying sword and the two darts attacked from three sides, and the fierce wind pressure drove the rubble on the cliffs on both sides to fall down one by one.

Zhong Shenxiu picked up the pen and moved it left and right, sweating profusely. This time he didn't draw circles.

Draw a dragon on the left and a rainbow on the right.

The black dragon shook its head and tail, as fast as lightning, and kept running after the Broken Water Sword with the black bead in its mouth. Using its size advantage, it swallowed the sword into its stomach. The dragon ball went forward to suppress and seal it, trying to lock it tightly.

A rainbow hung in the valley, and misty rays of light surrounded him. The three colors of black, white and gray permeated each other, delaying the dart's flexible advance.

However, all these were in vain. Lin Shan's spiritual sense was powerful, and he could control the treasures with ease. He could restrict him temporarily but could not seal him forever, and he was easily able to break free.

Seeing that Lin Shan had the upper hand, Master Huichang and Taoist He Yu became very excited. They ate green plums to restore their magic power, and the power of the magic weapons in their hands gradually recovered.

Master Lin is indeed worthy of being a genius in the immortal way. He is much better than the sickly Zhong Shenxiu. We really did not make a wrong bet!

Young Master Jiuyou felt a little impatient when he saw that Zhong Shenxiu was at a disadvantage and refused to use any additional means.

In order to see more of Lin Shan's cards, he couldn't help but urge him.

"What are you waiting for, Brother Zhong?"

"With your strength and the background of the White Deer Academy, how can you not be able to defeat a self-made casual cultivator?"

“We are both Lu’s immortal geniuses. Brother Zhong is from an orthodox Confucian school and has never been defeated since his debut. How can you disregard your fame today?!”

The young master of Jiuyou put Zhong Shenxiu on the fire and used all means to provoke him.

How can he enjoy himself if he doesn't watch this kind of dog-eat-dog fight to his heart's content?

However, Zhong Shenxiu did not buy it and instead questioned the Young Master Jiuyou.

"Why did Brother Wuyazi let the water go?"

"Master Huichang and Taoist Yu are just ordinary people. They have already run out of energy. Why can't they capture them and help me?"

"With such a spiritual object as Lingjian Qingguyan in front of you, you still sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, refusing to give your all. Where do you think your companions are?"

The young master of Jiuyou was extremely shameless and cried out loudly.

"Brother Zhong misunderstood me. I didn't realize that Master Huichang and Taoist Yu were so difficult to deal with. They have profound magical powers, long-lasting auras, and endurance."

"Besides, I'm not a genius in the immortal way. Fighting one against two is already my limit!"

"Brother Zhong, I tried my best!"

Young Master Jiuyou pretended to be struggling and fought back and forth with the two veteran Jindan masters.

When Master Huichang and Taoist He Yu saw that Lin Shan was in the upper hand, they became more and more excited as the fight went on, and all of a sudden they felt full of strength!

Zhong Shenxiu hated him for not fighting back and started cursing at him.

"Wuya, you are short-sighted! If I fail and flee today, and Master Xungu is free, you will never be able to take the treasure and return!"

At the beginning, the young master of Jiuyou was relaxed and took advantage of the situation. Later, when Master Chang and Taoist Yu recovered some of their magic power, he could no longer hold on.

Most of his strength is in the magic field, and he doesn't have many ways to avoid exposing his identity. Gradually, he can't suppress these two people anymore, and the situation is a little out of control.

Only then did he suddenly realize that he had inexplicably turned into a frog in a pot of warm water!
In the canyon.

Lin Shan surrounded Zhong Shenxiu and beat him up.

Master Huichang and Taoist Yu slowly fought two against one and began to suppress Young Master Jiuyou.

The situation was visibly in their favor. Zhong Shenxiu and Young Master Jiuyou were on the verge of being expelled from the valley and had to flee in defeat.

Next to the Qinggu Rock in Lingjian, a black mist appeared. It turned out to be the evil spirit "Mang". It received instructions from Lin Shan and took advantage of the clear situation to sneak through the cliff to take the treasure.

Lin Shan was looking forward to it, and his movements became more and more violent. Zhong Shenxiu and Young Master Jiuyou were distressed when they saw this scene, and secretly cursed Lin Shan for being insidious.

Is the treasure going to be lost?
At this moment, a long howl came from outside the valley.

"Hahahahahaha!"

"It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort at all!"

"Lingjian Qingguyan, this thing is destined for me!"

The lingering sound of the long whistle was so loud that it could be heard for ten miles.

All five of them were stunned.

They all thought they were hunters, but they didn't expect that they were all prey?

Is there a sixth person lurking?
Old. Sixth?
