Embers of Sword

Chapter 59: Po Lu

The caves left behind by ancient sages and the remains of sects left over from thousands of years ago are often hidden from the human world and isolated from the outside world due to the resonance between the formation patterns and the heaven and earth.

The Taoist sect, which has been passed down for more than a thousand years, calls this type of ruins "Tianyuan Secret Realm".

Over time, all major sects adopted this name.

For large sects and big families, secret realms are actually not something "rare". Many large sects have more than one secret realm. For example, in the Dasui Sword Palace, many disciples can practice in the blessed land... For practitioners, when their realm reaches a certain height and they can resonate with a certain avenue, they can use it to change the characteristics of a piece of heaven and earth. The great practitioners at this realm are qualified to create a "secret realm"!

In other words.

The so-called "secret realm" is nothing more than a small world refined by great practitioners.

It’s just that the strength of the refiners is different.

The strength of the rules of this small world is also different!
According to the history books of Da Chu, there was a golden age two thousand years ago, when the vitality was extremely abundant and countless geniuses came into being. That prosperous age lasted for a very long time and gave birth to many "top powers". Perhaps for this reason, the vitality of this world began to decline.

When things flourish, they must decline, and when things reach their extremes, they must turn upside down.

The "ancient saints" in the eyes of most practitioners today came from the prosperous era thousands of years ago. The strong men who came out of that era were powerful and had a strong Taoist tradition. The secret realms they created often contained many treasures!

If you can get one, perhaps you can rise to the top!

"If there is no [Dao Brush] in Bai Ze Cave Mansion... then what about my [Chronic Illness]?"

Xie Xuanyi stared at the gloomy look on Jiang Xin's face, feeling more and more weird in his heart.

If there was no [Dao Pen] in the cave of Great Sage Bai Ze, how could it absorb so many treasures?

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Suddenly, a roar sounded in the distance, and as the river fog broke, a huge iron ship sailed out of the haze with great momentum! The bow of the iron ship was engraved with a holy and majestic Qilin face, which was lifelike. The pattern of the Yuanli array extended along the mane and gathered at the position of the eyes, making the iron ship emit two beams of warm and blazing white light, which broke through the fog and landed on Jiang Qihu's floating boat!
The roar and the blazing light brought Xie Xuanyi's thoughts back to reality.

He squinted his eyes and looked back, and saw a few figures in fluttering robes standing vaguely on the huge iron ship, but against the scorching light, they could not be seen clearly.

This huge ship came from the direction of the North Sea. It was so imposing that it was obviously the "vehicle" of the Sea King Chu Lin, the famous Po Lu.

It is said that this Qingzhou king of a different surname loves to have fun and usually spends more than half of his time overseas, so the Po Lu is anchored in the North Sea most of the time. However, now that the Bai Ze Secret Realm is located in the Li Chao River, the ship can just go along the seaport and sail back to Qingzhou...

"Here comes the tough guy."

Jiang Qihu said expressionlessly: "Don't let it show later."

Xie Xuanyi silently put down his hat.

Chu Lin, a king of a different surname, seemed to be alone and free, not interfering in government affairs and not cultivating his own followers. But some things cannot be judged by appearances alone. The Chu family developed from a poor family thirty years ago to one of the two great families in Qingzhou. Chu Lin must have secretly made efforts... Xie Xuanyi was very familiar with this kind of thing.

The Xie family of Jiangning has the same idea.

However, the Chu family of Qingzhou has a weaker foundation and a more shallow basis.

The large ship coming from the North Sea slowly stopped. The surging river tide washed over the iron sheet like waves hitting the reefs. The Po Lu was like a stubborn stone, just staying in the middle of the river. No matter how the tide hit it, it remained motionless.

"My fellow heroes, thank you for your hard work these days."

King You Hai climbed onto the high-raised unicorn head on the bow of the ship.

He twisted the wine glass in one hand, raised it slightly in the air, and said with a smile: "In the past few days, the outer formation of the 'Secret Realm' has been gradually broken down, and I am afraid that strange phenomena may occur from time to time... If you are afraid of delaying the opportunity, you might as well go aboard the Po Lu to rest. The king is always open to welcome you."

The sound echoed over the Lichao River.

The rainbow lights hovering in the air looked at each other.

There were two women accompanying You Haiwang.

One of them was Chu Man who was at the night banquet.

The other one is Ye Qinglian from Baihua Valley.

After seeing their own prince, the cultivators of the Chu family no longer hesitated, and rays of rainbow light fell into the Po Lu.

As for the Baihua Valley, it was the same. For them, nothing was more important than entering the secret realm as soon as possible and scrambling for good fortune - the large ship of King Youhai was right above the Bai Ze Secret Realm, and being able to practice meditation here was naturally the best choice!

"Brother Qi Hu——"

King Youhai cast his eyes towards the boat below him and said, "You left in a hurry at the banquet last night. It was really unpleasant. Why don't you go aboard and have another drink?"

Even if it was just a casual glance.

But Xie Xuanyi felt the hairs on his back stand up——

The spiritual way he practiced was extremely sensitive. The casual glance from King Youhai just now was as fast as lightning!
Poseidon has fun all year round and hardly ever fights or conflicts with anyone.

Xie Xuanyi had met him several times in the past and did not feel anything unusual... But now it seems that the spiritual realm of this prince is very profound!

"Still drinking? Your Majesty, are you really not afraid of making mistakes?"

The drinking last night really made Jiang Qihu feel a little scared.

He said helplessly: "Just now, this Bai Ze Secret Realm burst into strange phenomena, and it might open at any time."

"That's why I parked the 'Po Lu' here."

King You Hai said with a smile: "Brother Qi Hu, it must be very hard to handle cases in the Imperial City every day. When life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest. Fairy Ye has already shown me your favor, so why should you still be so arrogant? Why don't you bring your assistant aboard and have a drink with me?"

Once these words are spoken, it becomes difficult to refuse.

Jiang Qihu felt a headache.

"Since the prince has spoken."

Jiang Qihu sighed softly and said, "Then Qihu would rather obey your command."

The small boat moved towards the Pulu.

"That's right."

King You Hai smiled, left from the bow, and casually threw the wine glass into the river.

"..."

Although he accepted the invitation of King You Hai and went on board to continue drinking, Jiang Qihu took out the Ruyi Order as soon as possible and issued the first order to the Jiang family after arriving in Lichao City.

"All cultivators of the Jiang family are not allowed to board the ship!"

The disciples of the Chu family and Baihua Valley all went to Po Lu Hao.

But the Jiang family members, upon receiving the order, dispersed and fell back into the river.

"Ah."

King You Hai was walking among the crowd on the deck of the ship. He glanced at the Jiang family monks who were dispersing outside, smiled and shook his head.

This time, the secret realm of Lichao River is a great opportunity that is rarely seen in a hundred years.

The order to seal off Qingzhou was issued by the Little Imperial Master and King You Hai together.

After hearing the news, the three major forces immediately dispatched personnel to Lichao City!
It can be said that those who have settled on the Po Lu at this moment are the absolute backbone of the Chu Family and Baihua Valley!

Chu Lin climbed up to the second floor of the Po Lu, opened the large window, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Man'er, go and get all my good wine. I want to entertain all the heroes on the ship!"
