Immortal Road.

Chapter 596: Chasing the Spirit of the Weapon and Going Their Separate Ways
"Ahem, this is the investment that the old man made in me when I was a guest at the cave residence of the demon master Ku Rong, who was in the Nascent Soul stage."

Young Master Jiuyou raised his lips when talking about this, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot of benefits.

"invest?"

Lin Shan looked at his good brother in surprise. As the young master of a fallen sect, receiving investment from a Nascent Soul stage boss was equivalent to having a backer. No wonder he dared to move around in Jin State.

"It is truly a cause for celebration that Big Brother has gained the favor of the Demon Lord!"

"Oh~ not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

Although Young Master Jiuyou was modest, he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

Because he has been suppressed for too long!

Finally I have someone to back me up with and my life of hiding has ended.

In the past, he stayed in the Yuanmo Sect of Jin State and did not dare to take a single step out of the country, for fear that his enemies from Chu State would come to settle accounts with him. At the same time, many people in Jin State were also ready to make a move.

Who didn't know that he carried with him a small portion of the Jiuyou Sect's inheritance?
The demonic monks all wanted to kill him for their equipment and resources. If he dared to run around, he would be courting death!
And inside the Yuanmo Sect, there were also many people who were jealous and had long been dissatisfied with him, and there were many who wanted to swallow up his inheritance.

It was just that Yuanmo Sect’s eldest senior brother Zi Chenggan was his close friend and had been helping him all the time, which allowed him to survive.

Later, he broke into the forbidden area on the cliff and came back. After some hardships, he was appreciated by the Demon Lord Kuruo. The boss decided to protect him, and then he had the confidence to travel in the world of cultivation.

As for the Demon Lord's investment, it was also a timely help for him.

Because he has been living off his savings for so many years, his inheritance is not so much that it cannot be used up, so he will definitely need new supplies.

The Demon Lord Kuruo was also very generous. Knowing that he wanted to rebuild the Jiuyou Sect, he was very considerate and provided him with people and money, and even arranged for flying magic weapons.

This large painted boat is exquisitely crafted with elaborate carvings. Lanterns are hung on the eaves on both sides, giving it a poetic and picturesque feel.

Most people in the Jin Kingdom's cultivation world know that this was the 'Spring Tower' that once served as the mount of the Demon Lord Kuruo.

The meaning is taken from "Listening to the spring rain in a small building all night".

Just imagine, standing on this pleasure boat, soaring in the sky with rumbling spring thunder and heavy rain, overlooking all living things, what kind of breadth of mind and courage does it take?

When Young Master Jiuyou gets on this ship, anyone outside who sees it will understand that this is the umbrella of protection given by Demon Lord Ku Rong.

Before you touch him, you should think carefully about whether you can bear the consequences!
It is said that when the devil gets angry, millions of people will die and their blood will flow like rivers!

Those with families don’t want to cause trouble, and independent cultivators are not a big threat to Young Master Jiuyou, so he can handle it himself.

The only flaw is that this pleasure boat is for the Demon Lord Kuruo to sit on, which is so poetic!
If you let others sit, then you will be a bit forced and effeminate.
On the contrary, the young master Jiuyou was very fond of Lin Shan's black beetle flying boat, a magical weapon that was in line with the aesthetic taste of the people in the magic world.

In terms of speed, the two are evenly matched.

No matter whether it is the flying magic boat or the beetle flying boat, they both have speeds comparable to that of a Jindan stage cultivator!

While galloping side by side.

The white clouds in the sky were retreating, and the mountains and rivers on the ground were disappearing quickly.

Young Master Jiuyou's pleasure boat left behind a trail of colorful exhaust gas, which was not only cool, but also very sexy!
Lin Shan’s beetle flying boat is relatively low-key, with no exhaust gas at all, and its main feature is clean energy.

On the front deck of the pleasure boat.

The guardian Wu glanced over there and muttered to the young master Jiuyou.

"We now have three Jindan-stage cultivators. Should we try to take down the Xun Gu Sect Leader while we can?"

Young Master Jiuyou did not agree.

Because he remembered that his second brother had the Wind Escape Talisman, and if he was not absolutely sure, he would definitely not be able to stop him.

Since you can't kill it, there's no point in making it disgusting.

At this stage, just follow him and use his subordinate Taoist An Chun to lead the way to capture the Purple Star Ring spirit first.

Moth Ridge.

night.

The purple-haired spirit was meditating on the top of the mountain. Blue star streams were falling from the distant void and were all collected by it.

Star power is its foundation. Without star power, it cannot cultivate itself as a spirit of the weapon, and it won’t even have the strength to escape!

In order to enter the cave of Master Yuxing and make arrangements before it opens, he also needs a large amount of star power.

"Unfortunately, the combination of Zhou Tian Xingti and Young Master Jiuyou caused me to fail at the last moment."

At this point, it still couldn't believe that these two people could withstand its Arctic true intentions. There must be some unknown inside story.

But just when he was thinking about how to retaliate, especially how to take over Zhou Tianxing body.

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
Deep in the distant mountains, colorful tail ribbons hang in the night.

Young Master Jiuyou sat on the deck of the pleasure boat and rushed over here quickly.

"You dare to catch up with me alone?"

The purple-haired spirit was overjoyed. He didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant. He really thought he was a soft persimmon that could be easily bullied.

Then let me let you know how powerful I am!

The mountains surrounding Fei'e Ridge suddenly shook in unison, rising up from the ground towards the sky, getting higher and higher, blocking the distance.

The young master of Jiuyou ignored everything and just attacked the purple-haired spirit, trying to capture it on the spot.

“Hua Ta Ta~”

Several large formations lit up, trapping them inside, making for a foolproof offense and defense.

The young master of Jiuyou was immediately stuck in a quagmire and was forced to switch from attack to defense, becoming extremely flustered.

next moment,
Suddenly, there was a breeze blowing from behind, and the purple-haired spirit felt something was wrong. Although it was a spirit body and could not feel the wind on a physical level, couldn't it use the formation to monitor the surroundings?

"who!"

Lin Shan went around from the rear and pointed the Soul-Locking Pot in his hand at it, intending to take it away to accompany Zhi Lian Zhenren.

The purple-haired weapon spirit's body was unstable, and only then did he realize that the two brothers were chasing him together. Just now, one of them was luring the enemy in front, and the other one was secretly behind!
As it fled, two large formations erupted beneath its feet.

I don’t know how many large formations it has buried!
Lin Shan was blocked, which finally made it feel relieved.

But it's not over yet, just when it's thought it's over.

A shadow emerges beside him and suddenly delivers a fatal blow!
"Bang~"

A gourd of black and red blood was poured on it, scalding it and making it scream in pain. Countless white smoke rose up, as if a normal person was splashed with concentrated sulfuric acid.

The feeling was refreshing and comfortable for a moment, but was followed by discomfort and despair.

"and who are you?"

"Nine Nether Sect, Guardian Wu."

The person who comes here simply reveals his home, and then he is caught!
The guardian Wu was obviously stronger than the others, and he put it in danger, and it was almost caught several times.

Logically speaking, it alone could never defeat this group of people.

Fortunately, with the help of the formation, they were able to communicate with each other for a while!

But it is a weapon spirit after all, and every time it wastes star power in a fight, it feels extremely painful.

When the right opportunity came, the purple-haired spirit twisted its body and disappeared into the mountain.

"Eh?"

Lin Shan just managed to break free from the entanglement of the formation and reached out to grab nothing.

The guardian Wu was unable to stop him and withdrew his hand with a gloomy face.

The surrounding formations were no longer under human control, and all of them exploded into flying stardust.

Young Master Jiuyou walked over, looked around and nodded.

"This old fellow is quite capable, worthy of being called a formation master. He has arranged so many formations around him in one go. The overall strength is probably comparable to that of an ordinary mountain protection formation!"

The mountain protection formation is more powerful than the ordinary formation because it involves a wide range of complex structures, and it also fits the ground veins and has a constant supply of spiritual energy. The number of formations arranged by the purple-haired spirit is large enough that they can compete with each other for a short time when stacked together, but the disadvantage is that they cannot last long.

One is that there are not enough spiritual veins nearby, and the other is that its star power is limited.

The only choice is to flee.

The old man Hongdong and Taoist Anchun who were watching the battle from behind also gathered together, and they were also filled with admiration.

"Formation masters are rare, not to mention that this old fellow is very experienced. He once followed True Lord Yuxing in battles all over the country and wandered around. I'm afraid the number of formation diagrams he has in his hands can fill a basket."

"Fortunately, it is not a true formation master, because without the help of spiritual treasures and the help of us from the Star Swallowing Sect to find materials for it, it would not be able to hold on on its own."

"He will be stuck at the material level."

"This level of star power can also kill it!"

A true master of formations would have no problem besieging and killing Yuanying stage cultivators, let alone dealing with Jindan stage cultivators.

But the purple-haired spirit is alone and has no help from outsiders, so where would he get so many materials?
In the past, with the help of the Star-Swallowing Gate, people would be crazy to find it for you whatever you wanted. Now, the Star-Swallowing Gate is dying and people have surrendered, and it has no one to rely on anymore.

Generally, when a formation master goes out, he will bring a group of formation apprentices to help.

For example, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord has a large army of white bones that dig pits and bury the soil to lay the foundation for the formation.

For example, Master Zhankong would bring his disciples with him when he went out to help him set up the formation and operate the business temporarily.

Even Qianbu was not immune to this. If he had not left Jin Yao Peak in such a hurry, he would not have lost his team of formation apprentices.

The purple-haired spirit now has neither the materials nor the people, so he cannot play the role of a formation master at all.

"Fellow Daoist An Chun, it seems I have no choice but to continue to trouble you."

Taoist An Chun shuddered suddenly, turned around and found Lin Shan was looking at him.

Lin Shan knew that if he continued like this, Taoist Anchun would be drained dry, but now the situation was urgent and he could not care less.

Taoist An Chun is really helpless. At this time, he still wants me to tell his fortune!

You've already wasted decades of my life, and I'm about to be buried in peace, yet this is still not the end!

"Sir, I really don't have enough life left. How about..."

"Why don't you calculate whether this day next year is your death anniversary or not!"

"No, no, don't ask me to calculate the anniversary of death again."

Taoist Anchun had no choice but to continue calculating and looking for the direction again.

Lin Shan and Young Master Jiuyou followed the direction and charged towards the distance again.

The next few chases.

Taoist An Chun located the weapon, and Lin Shan and Young Master Jiuyou followed up together, beating the purple-haired weapon spirit so hard that it fled in panic, looking extremely embarrassed.

Every time I wanted to have some rest, those two guys would come to my door with a group of people.

Do this three or four times in a row.

The purple-haired spirit finally couldn't bear it anymore and ran wildly in a predetermined direction.

"Shu~"

"Keep running, I'll see how far you can run."

Young Master Jiuyou suddenly stopped, and this time, before he reached the front, the purple-haired weapon spirit disappeared.

But this time when he disappeared, there was suddenly a barrier between them.

Taoist Anchun wanted to tell fortunes again, but he couldn't.

"It seems that he should have gone to Yuxing Cave Mansion, and is in a special area that is isolated from my detection. Going there will probably consume a lot of star power. That's what you said."

He wanted to put the blame on the Hongdong ancestor.

The latter had no choice but to admit that this place was indeed unusual and was close to the cave residence of True Lord Yuxing.

"The star power on the Purple Star Ring spirit should be able to barely get in. If it wants to recover its star power after entering, it can either find its own body or look for a star power pool."

The guy started to talk nonstop.

I don’t know whether what they say is true or not. It sounds reliable, but most of it is just speculation.

"Then, do we want to..."

Lin Shan turned his head and looked at his good brother, Young Master Jiuyou.

Young Master Jiuyou looked puzzled.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't have that much star power, so I can't get in at all."

"Is that really the case? Why do I remember that?"

Lin Shan brought up all sorts of issues, and his words were hinting at something.

Young Master Jiuyou didn't buy it at all. If he couldn't lead his men in, without the protection of Guardian Wu and the guidance of Patriarch Hongdong, he would go in alone and he was afraid that the spirit of the weapon would harm him!
Lin Shan didn't say anything when he saw this. He didn't have any star power anyway, so he couldn't get through.

"What are your plans next, brother?"

"I don't have any plans. I just want to hear my second brother's opinion, right?"

"I don't have any suggestions, I'll just follow your orders, big brother."

"Well, I think we two brothers should separate for a while."

"Separated? Why?"

Lin Shan felt that something was not right with Young Master Jiuyou today, and it seemed that there was another place, so he prepared to rush over in a hurry.

Young Master Jiuyou apologized awkwardly.

"Don't misunderstand me, brother. I just have some personal matters to attend to. I will come back to see you when I am done with this."

Director Lin looked at him a few times but didn't force him.

If someone doesn't want to leave, you can't force them to follow you.

"In that case, take care, big brother, and we'll see you another day."

Lin Shan turned and left, and Young Master Jiuyou breathed a sigh of relief.

The guardian Wu next to him didn't look very good, his hands shook several times, and he wanted to kill Lin Shan, but he forced himself to hold it back.

"Young Master, this boy's cultivation is progressing at a very fast pace. If we don't get rid of him as soon as possible, he will definitely become a threat in the future!"

"I know that, but if there is no chance to kill, it's best not to do anything."

The group of people watched Lin Shan go away.

But he didn't expect this guy to suddenly turn around, and almost scared Young Master Jiuyou!
"Brother, you sent me away. Could it be that you want to use the star power to enter the cave ahead of time and then compete with the Purple Star Ring Spirit and leave me aside?"

Young Master Jiuyou's heart was pounding!
"No, no, how could I possibly eat alone? Don't worry, second brother!"

Lin Shan then looked back every three steps and reluctantly left Young Master Jiuyou.

Wait until he actually leaves.

Young Master Jiuyou put away his fake smile and became calm and composed.

"Master, where are we going next?"

As soon as the Hongdong Patriarch asked the question, he immediately regretted it.

"You're a bit talkative. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."

The protector Wu did not have this concern, he was also curious about what the young master wanted to do.

"Let's change the place first and prepare to enter Yuxing's secret vault. There is no time to lose. Contact Protector Yin to reunite with me!"
