Immortal Road.

"Holy Lord!"

"What should I do? Should I chase her?"

"We can't let them get away like this!"

Many Yuanying stage monks flew up to the sky, gnashing their teeth as they watched the disappearing wormhole. The cracks in the ground below kept breaking and collapsing. The elite Penglai suffered heavy losses in this battle, and many disciples were implicated in the aftermath.

How can I swallow this breath?

"Forget it. The Void Battleship is the flagship of the alien demons. It has unique advantages in traveling through space. I'm afraid I'll fall into a trap if I follow it. If I'm ambushed by the alien demons, the consequences will be disastrous."

The Holy Lord of Penglai closed his eyes and thought for a while, and reason prevailed.

As the person in charge of the holy land, nothing can happen to him no matter what. Every Yuan Nian clone is extremely precious and cannot die easily, especially on the eve of the last round of spiritual tide in the Wanhui Year!

Everyone remembered the recent encirclement and suppression campaign against the major holy places in the South China Sea.

After expelling the evil demons from this world, the coalition forces stopped moving forward. Only Penglai rushed into the void, wanting to expand the results of the victory. However, it was ambushed and defeated by the evil demons from outer space!
There are more than one force opposing Penglai now. If we add the Black Lotus Sect and others, we might end up making a big mistake if we are not careful.

"But we lost two great masters in this battle, so we're just going to let it go like this???"

It was hard for everyone to accept.

How precious are those with great supernatural powers?
Even in the holy land, they are all high-ranking figures, and even the powerful spirits must be treated equally.

He died so miserably at the hands of an outsider, so it was expected that the public would be outraged.

In terms of seniority, they are either direct or collateral relatives, and they are all related to each other. Of course, they are deeply attached and heartbroken.

In the past, they were always superior to others. Since Penglai came into the world, had he ever suffered such injustice?

The Holy Lord of Penglai took a deep breath.

He was also heartbroken over the loss of the two powerful masters, as much as he felt over the death of Mercury Ye and his fall into the Demon Valley, and even more so!
But things have come to this point. Now that Patriarch Honglian has escaped from trouble, there is much more to consider next. He must prepare for the future.

"After returning, immediately investigate the detailed identities and backgrounds of those people and find out where they are usually active."

"And destroy all the remaining Black Lotus strongholds in the East China Sea and cut off all their hands and feet!"

"Then clean up the mess here and immediately set off to the Peacock Demon Clan in the Luosong Mountains. This Saint Lord will personally show up and demand an explanation from them!"

"If the demons of Luosong Mountain Range dare to let the Red Lotus Ancestor escape and can't explain why, don't blame me for killing people in Penglai."

The void battleship travels through space, covering thousands of miles in an instant, constantly drilling in and out of various wormholes to eliminate the breath left behind.

Finally, they breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the Holy Lord of Penglai had not caught up with them.

Lin Shan, Lin Fan, Zhang Yunxi and Brother Ji looked at each other.

"Did you see the space where I jumped out of the red maple forest just now?"

"I see!"

"Hiss~ We only found out at the end. It turns out there are other battlefields in the space turbulence!"

"Fortunately, fortunately"

They all patted their chests in shock and almost broke out in cold sweats.

The reason is simple. At the moment when the void battleship jumped out of the secret realm, at the entrance of the void wormhole that the void battleship passed by, the third Yuannian incarnation of the Penglai Holy Lord had been lying in ambush and waiting for a long time!
If they bump into it headfirst, they will definitely be caught red-handed and get a bloody head!
However, this third incarnation of Yuannian had no time to care about them. He was currently fighting with another powerful Yuanshen stage master at a critical moment.

It was none other than the Demon Dog Lord in the Yuanshen Stage!
It was totally beyond everyone's expectations.

The Demon Dog Lord was far away in Jin State and Jiaozhou area in the central part of the continent. After recovering his soul stage without anyone noticing, he quietly came to the Song Dynasty. He was probably preparing to take revenge on Penglai.

The recent large-scale activities in the Larch Mountains have been abuzz, which naturally attracted this hound.

As expected, the old ones are the most experienced. This Lord of Hell hid in the dark, and although he did not openly help Lin Shan, Zhang Yunxi and others, he secretly helped them resist the third incarnation of the Penglai Holy Lord.

It was precisely because of the third battlefield being carried out secretly in the turbulence of space that they were able to rescue the Red Lotus Ancestor smoothly. No one in the world knew that there was such a game going on in secret!
This incident made them feel terrified. The Holy Lord of Penglai was indeed ruthless and his plan was so thorough that he had discovered the wormhole in the void long ago. He did not alert the enemy, but instead used the enemy's trick to lure them into a trap!

This time, three Yuan Nian incarnations were dispatched to kill the Red Lotus Ancestor, which was enough to show how important it was and how deeply it was hidden!

Without the secret help of the Demon Dog Lord, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Speaking of which, how many Yuan Nian incarnations are there in the Yuan Shen stage?"

Lin Shan was very puzzled by this. It would be fine if you had one or two, but how could there be a third one?

If you keep doing this, it will never end. Your true self will be hidden in a corner where no one can find it, and your incarnations will roam everywhere. Who in the world can control your soul?
Lin Fan, Brother Ji, and Zhang Yunxi all shook their heads. They were all still in the Nascent Soul stage, so how could they know all this?
Ancestor Honglian had been on the deck with his eyes closed and regulating his breathing. He opened his eyes after hearing this, and looked at the void particles around him that were constantly retreating, the silver-white lines that were crossing the deep space, and feeling the long-lost freedom, he spoke in a deep voice to answer them.

"It depends on the situation and on different people."

"The number of Yuan Nian incarnations is not endless. Every time you condense one, you have to pay a huge price. After all, it is the facade that represents the Yuan Shen cultivators walking around. It is not uncommon to consume a large amount of expensive materials."

"The most important thing is the Great Divine Power Seed and the Void Spiritual Charm!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several people's eyes widened and they quickly gathered around to listen to the ancestor's teachings.

"I'm sure you're all familiar with the seeds of great magical powers. Just like the small magical power spells and magical power spells, only when you practice the great magical power spells to the extreme, thoroughly penetrate them from the inside out, comprehend the true meaning of the magical power, and master it from the heart, and can cast it instantly at any time without any pre-swing, can you condense the seeds in the depths of your soul."

"Every great magical power spell can be condensed into a carrier for the Yuan Shen period cultivators' Yuan Mind to reside. Theoretically speaking, if you have several great magical power seeds, you can refine several incarnations, but this alone is not enough!"

“If it’s just the Great Divine Power Seed plus Yuan Nian, the method is limited and there is no Yuan Shen Stage cultivator’s strength to break the void, so it is necessary to collect and refine the free void spiritual rhyme from the void outside the sky.”

This was an unfamiliar term, and no one present had ever heard of it. However, it did not affect their ability to feel that this was an extremely precious treasure, absolutely rare in the world!
"The Void Spiritual Charm is the interaction between the void particles from outer space and the spiritual energy scattered from the heavens and myriad worlds, combined with the baptism of spatial turbulence, forming a light rhythm with a probability of one in a billion."

"This thing has a powerful spatial and memory shaping ability. After being refined by a Yuanshen stage cultivator, all the life's learning can be engraved into the mold. Its incarnation can be freely fabricated according to itself, and with the help of Yuan Nian Parasitic Great Divine Power Seed, it has the strength of six to eight of the original body!"

"Why is it 60% to 80%? The difference lies in the differences in body forging, spiritual treasures, magical powers, and various secret techniques and treasures between the incarnation and the original body."

"If a cultivator in the Yuanshen stage is willing to spend a huge amount of money and give all his secret treasures, various elixirs and consumables to the incarnation, then he can have strength close to that of his original body!"

Under the explanation of the Red Lotus Patriarch, they gradually understood the principle. To put it bluntly, the Void Spiritual Charm is equivalent to the main material of the external incarnation. Not only is it very difficult to find, but it also requires a way to refine it. For the Yuanshen stage cultivators, it is a rare opportunity.

Generally, many people in the Yuanshen stage often enter the turbulent space, holding fishing nets, fishing rods and fish guards, and sit there for dozens or even hundreds of years!

Whether you can find it depends entirely on luck.

Of course, this thing doesn't only appear in space turbulence, it can be found anywhere in the void outside the sky. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it's extremely difficult, but everyone still flocks to it.

"Back then, the ancestor actually entered the void and spent three hundred years to find enough void spiritual energy. He had a demon incarnation, but it was destroyed when fighting with other great demon masters."

Speaking of this, Patriarch Honglian shook his head and felt that this thing was unreliable for the demon clan.

Because only humans like to create incarnations of their own thoughts, while demons prefer to fight with their original bodies.

They don't have too many fancy tricks, they just rely on their well-trained demon bodies and innate magical powers, which cannot be transferred to their incarnations.

After working so hard for so long and finally refining a demon incarnation, it was easily killed by the real bodies of other big demons. What competitiveness do you have?

However, the incarnation of Yuan Nian was not completely denied by the Red Lotus Ancestor.

At least in this world, they have become the mainstream of the Yuanshen period cultivators, which means that it is in line with the current situation and is relatively safe!

The death of Yuan Nian's incarnation is certainly heartbreaking, but it is much better than the death of the original body.

Wasn't it because of its disdain that the Red Lotus Ancestor had his body sealed ten thousand years ago?
"The Holy Lord of Penglai can have three Yuan Nian incarnations. Among the Yuan Shen stage cultivators, he can be called a strong one!"

Because this depends on foundation.

Generally speaking, for cultivators who have just entered the Yuanshen stage, no matter whether it is the seed of great supernatural power or the spiritual charm of the void, it will take a while for them to acquire it.

The Holy Lord of Penglai has the support of the Holy Land of Penglai and the cultural foundation accumulated by the Holy Land. In every ten thousand years, enough Void Spiritual Rhythm will be born. Compared with other powerful Yuanshen stage masters, this is a huge advantage!

Originally, Ancestor Honglian was not very confident that he could escape today, but he was determined to fight to the death and try his best. He didn't expect that this group of young people could actually rescue him!
To be honest, it’s a bit unexpected.

"Thanks to you guys this time, if you hadn't helped me..."

"Hey~ what are you talking about, Old Ancestor? Why are you being so formal with us?"

Lin Shan and Zhang Yunxi smiled at each other, finally feeling relieved after their success.

Lin Fan and Brother Ji also scratched their heads naively, saying that they were willing to help others when they saw injustice, and followed Lin Shan to join in the fun without asking for anything in return.

But of course it is impossible for the ancestor to accept this great favor in vain.

"I'll remember the favors you two have done me, including that Demon Dog Lord. If there's any danger in the future, just call me and I'll do my best!"

Several people laughed heartily.

When they talked about how not only did the Penglai Holy Land fail to gain anything from its efforts, but also lost two people with great powers, they must have been heartbroken. If they were in their place, they would definitely not be able to sleep well when they returned.

However, when talking about how to deal with the aftermath, Lin Shan was a little worried about Lin Fan and Brother Ji.

"Don't be afraid. Our Zixiao Sect is backed by the Shenxiao Sect of the upper realm. Penglai also has a main sect in the fairy world, but it is far less powerful than our ancestors! If you want to destroy our sect, you have to think twice. At least you can't cause trouble for the ancestors of Penglai in the upper realm, unlike those crazy people in the Black Lotus Sect who don't care about the consequences."

"Oh oh oh, in the second Wanhui year, our Luosong Mountain demon tribe participated in the Spirit Tide War under the command of the southern great demon Shougong Venerable, and made great contributions. If the Penglai Holy Land wants to vent its anger on the Peacock Demon Tribe, Shougong Venerable will not stand idly by!"

That is true, but they have gone too far today. There is no guarantee that the Holy Land of Penglai will not be furious, so a good blacksmith must first sharpen his own tools.

Lin Shan asked the Red Lotus Patriarch to show the nine chains and copper pillars that sealed his soul, to see if they could break them with everyone's combined efforts.

If the Red Lotus Patriarch is completely unsealed, then it will be no problem to cover up the forces behind Lin Fan and Brother Ji.

Ancestor Honglian was not wary of them. He left his body in public, carrying chains and copper pillars.

"This thing has been bothering me for a long time. I've tried everything, but I can't destroy it or get rid of it. Just try to see if it works. At worst, I can go out and try to find out if my old friend from ten thousand years ago is still alive."

Several people came closer to take a look, and Lin Shan took direct action.

The reinforcement panel appeared in the eyes.

[Nine Netherworld Soul-Suppressing Lock·Red Lotus Demon-Sealing Pillar]

Quality: Sixth-level secret treasure

Introduction: A set of secret treasures, a sealing prop specially made for the Red Lotus Patriarch by Zang Yan, the Holy Lord of the Penglai Holy Land ten thousand years ago, to suppress his soul.

The main materials are selected from the sixth-level spiritual materials Nine Nether Mysterious Iron and Absolute Demon Copper, and nine soul-devouring nails are embedded inside, which can penetrate the spirits of plants and monsters, and nail into the vital roots of the Red Lotus Ancestor, blocking his continuous supply of power from the void of heaven and earth.

Solution:

① Seal transfer: Use methods such as grafting to transfer the seal of Red Lotus Patriarch to other Yuanshen stage creatures with similar auras.

② Escape: Abandon the original spirit, retain a little bit of spiritual consciousness and leave the body, then enter the physical body to practice again.

③Self-immolation: Sacrifice your own red lotus body to trigger the backlash of the original red lotus fire. There is a certain probability (50%-70%) of unlocking the seal.

④Sacrifice the Spiritual Wood: Find a sixth-level plant spirit, sacrifice your own plant essence, and bear part of the sealing power for the Red Lotus Ancestor's soul. There is a chance (70-80%) of escape.

⑤ Forced refining: Use sufficiently strong spiritual power to forcibly refine this treasure and make it recognize its master, then the seal can be released by itself.

⑥ Breaking the spiritual ban: Break all the spiritual bans related to the seals in the secret treasure, trace back to the source, lift the ban and melt the treasure, and the seal will break by itself.

⑦ Ancient Rhythm Strengthening: Use the Ancient Rhythm to strengthen it to the next stage. This treasure will reset the seal target and automatically fall off from the Red Lotus Ancestor.

Enhancement required: 256 points

The enhanced panel is worthy of being called a golden finger. It provides a total of seven plans, and some plans also give probability ranges for Lin Shan to refer to.

For a moment, he looked at the plans listed above and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
