Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 167 Confusion
As he walked out of Cuihua Palace, he felt the formation and the palaces and pavilions shifted and changed rapidly.

Xu Xuan looked at the magic sword in his hand. The sword body was white, surrounded by pale white moonlight, and it was bright and radiant. On it was a laurel palace and a fairy maiden ascending to heaven. Holding the sword and connecting his mind and spirit, he felt a pure and deep Taiyin aura.

There are several ancient characters engraved on the sword body, which reads [Qingzhi], which I think is the name of the sword. The value of this magic sword is probably even higher than that of [Puhua Leihuozhu], and its killing power is extremely high.

Xu Yi followed behind Xu Xuan. Previously, she had stood on the side of this dragon son. Now she looked at the [Qingzhi] with curiosity.

Xu Xuan put away his sword, looked at the other party, and asked in a low voice:

"Fellow Daoist Xu Yi, I wonder what kind of magical weapon you have taken?"

The other party did not hide anything and took out two magic weapons. However, they were not ancient magic weapons, but slightly inferior. They were just made of rare materials. Xu Yi said in a low voice:

"I entered several pavilions, many of which contained ancient magical instruments, but I couldn't take them away. I had to settle for the next best thing and choose this one with rare materials so that I can remelt it."

"After I took two items, the Zhenjiu Order was activated and I couldn't take anything else from here. I guess there are restrictions on what I can take."

Xu Xuan felt a little depressed. He had already obtained a Taiyin magic sword. His mind was immersed in the Zhenjiu Order and he sensed it slightly. According to his previous performance, he could take away two ancient magic weapons in total, and there would still be one left.

"How did An Xianhui get the quota to retrieve the item? Did he use the Immortal Sect's tricks?"

He calmed his mind and walked slowly towards the depths of the palace, using his immortal foundation to sense the object that best suited his skills.

There were many illusions around, the formations were constantly changing, and many magic weapons flashed by and disappeared. Xu Xuan saw many of excellent quality ones, but still did not move. According to Xu Yi, once you make a choice, there will be no time to regret.

They were about to leave, but Xu Xuan hadn't made up his mind yet. Xu Yi, who was standing beside him, looked worried and whispered, "What are you going to do?"
"Fellow Daoist Youdu, it's better to make a decision sooner rather than later."

Xu Xuan stopped and turned his gaze. His immortal base felt something and his gaze turned to an ancient and simple gray stone hall called [Hunqiao]. Compared with other palaces and pavilions filled with immortal energy, this stone hall exuded a desolate and wild aura, as if it came from ancient times.

[Jiang Lei Ze] was jumping with enthusiasm, and the immortal base was vibrating like never before. [Dong Hua Sword Box] also felt it at this time, but it was pointing to a different thing from the immortal base. Xu Xuan no longer hesitated and entered immediately.

There are three objects on the gray stone altar in the hall, a small black tripod and a bronze magic sword. There is no doubt that these two objects are of "Thunder". The grade is unknown, but Xu Xuan feels that they are probably not inferior to "Clear Quality".

The last object, displayed in the center, is a gray stone statue, about three inches tall, with a blank face and no facial features. There is nothing magical about this stone statue, and it is not even clear which sect it belongs to.

[Jiang Lei Ze] was sensing this stone statue. Xu Xuan was a little hesitant and walked forward, not knowing whether to take it.

Xu Yi was standing aside, not knowing why Xu Xuan was so fond of the stone statue. In her opinion, it would be most appropriate to take the bronze sword, after all, it was a magic sword of thunder. She also saw that Dan Ting was slightly inferior and was a burden to this dragon son.

Xu Xuan's eyes kept wandering between the bronze sword and the stone statue. This decision was extremely difficult. The [Hole Sword Box] vibrated, asking him to take the bronze sword, but the immortal base was pointing at the stone statue.

Seeing this, Xu Yi wanted to say a few words of advice, but he remained silent and did not dare to say much. After all, the other party might have some means to see the true and false of these magic weapons.

'Which one should I choose?'

Xu Xuan's heart sank. Under normal circumstances, he would have taken the bronze magic sword directly, which was perfect for him. However, just by looking at the stone statue, he couldn't help but think about this thing.

There were changes in the outside world again, and time seemed to be running out. He calmed down, no longer hesitated, and followed his intuition. He went forward and wanted to take away the gray stone statue.

Holding it with one hand, he suddenly felt as if a sacred mountain had taken root below. Even with Xu Xuan's strength, he could only shake it slightly, which made him frown slightly.

'It's truly extraordinary.'

The dark grey dragon scales on his right arm clanged and rang, and he used all his [Jade Blood Heart] to bless it, almost using all his magic power and blood energy, to gradually lift the grey stone statue bit by bit.

After leaving the altar, the stone statue lost its mysterious power and was stored in the sea of qi. However, no matter how Xu Xuan perceived it, it showed little reaction, as if it were carved from ordinary stone.

Xu Xuan had a strange expression on his face as he looked at the bronze sword beside him. He tried to pick it up, but when he touched it, it became illusory and not like a real object. As Xu Yi said, there were indeed restrictions.

The [Donghua Sword Box] was still vibrating, pointing to the bronze magic sword. Xu Xuan felt unwilling, and turned his gaze to look at the altar below.

Dan Ting and Qing Zhi appeared together, his momentum rising continuously, and the two magic swords rang continuously. The moonlight and thunder merged, transforming into a vast river of sword energy. Xu Yi, who was standing by, seemed to see what the other party was going to do and hurriedly called out:
"Be careful of the formation."

Xu Xuan understood, but his hands did not stop moving. He mobilized his magic power, and the two swords swirled around, leading the mighty river of swords to rush down and slash straight at the black stone altar.

The sword river fell and the black stone altar was damaged. Xu Xuan was delighted. This hall was indeed not included in the formation here and could be shaken.

While the altar was sturdy, it was only at the Foundation Establishment level. Xu Xuan's two magic swords clashed and shattered it, gradually shattering it into pieces, leaving only the upper half of the black stone, which held the bronze magic sword. Xu Xuan moved swiftly, snatching it away in an instant. Just as he turned to look at the small black cauldron beside him, wanting to repeat his trick, he saw the hall tremble and quickly collapse. He and Xu Yi immediately retreated.

The formation outside changed, and the two were sent out of this place in an instant, and they could never enter again.

'He actually got it.'

Xu Yi's heart trembled. His previous action was extremely dangerous. If he activated the formation, he would probably be injured.

The two of them could now see the Qingyang Weiling Pavilion from afar. On this treasure pavilion, bright golden divine thunder was running, and the energy of Qingyang was surging. It felt the same as Zhen Juling. The Daozang and Yuanye were all here.

Xu Xuan and Xu Yi flew away together on the wind, and at the same time they looked at the bronze magic sword they had collected. The sword was blue-gray in color, with a very straight spine and a sharp blade. There were dark grid patterns on it, and the words "Mu Ming" were engraved in bird and insect seal script.

"This artifact is of extremely ancient origin, and the Hunqiao Hall is not included in the formation. It seems to have been incorporated later. I wonder why?"

[Qingyang Weiling Pavilion] changed again. A sound of Taoism gradually rose from within, sweeping across the cave. Xu Yi heard it, his face changed, and he said in a deep voice:
"This treasure pavilion is about to open."

"Walk."

Xu Xuan activated [Xi Yan], and five fires gushed out, turning into a streak of light. Xu Yi followed closely behind him and headed towards the treasure pavilion.
-
In the big sun formed by golden divine thunder, Zhou Shi sat at the desk with a serious look in his eyes, taking in the scene in the cave.

Jing Jing'er still maintained the [Five Heart Destruction Records], and the rainbow mirage on his body changed. He saw Mu Youdu taking away the stone statue below, and he was quite curious. He also remembered what Zhou Shi said before and had some guesses.

"[Sun and Moon Twins] have not yet acknowledged their master, so he cannot obtain them completely. In this case, it should have nothing to do with the Supreme Lord Shangyu."

Zhou Shi spoke in a low voice, as if he was thinking. There were only a few important figures in the Zhenlei position, and he wanted to test them one by one. These two magic swords were of great origin. They were forged in imitation of the [Shangxuan Yinyang Yijian] of Shangyue Mountain.

If it is really related to Master Shangyu, then things will become complicated and difficult to judge. The originally clear situation will instantly become turbid.

"The Hunqiao Palace manifested itself and gave the statue to this dragon son, which is almost a clear indication that Beihai wants to intervene in this matter."

He thought of the story of Xuan Hun Zhenjun, a man who was indomitable and could achieve immortality almost instantly if he were not bound by his status. All the Daoists were wary of and on guard against him.

Therefore, Zhen Lei did not have the golden elixir of the subordinate position, and his noble position fell early, leaving him no chance to escape. Now, only Kuilong can ascend to the subordinate position through compromise.

Jing Jing'er saw that her superior was in distress and felt very considerate. She then followed up the conversation and said:

"The Lord of the North Sea is formidable, but here, we are also adhering to the will of the Shaoyin Realm. Once you are perfect, the position of "Divine Thunder" will be vacant, so why be so shy about this?"

Zhou Shi flicked his finger, and a ray of sword intent flew out. Jing Jing'er immediately retreated into [Fengdu] and dared not speak.

"This matter is not that simple. If we are not careful, lives will be destroyed and the nine provinces will shed blood. If we only follow our own will and try to replace the will of heaven, how can we talk about the path of immortality?"

"To kill or not to kill is my will alone, no one else can tell me."

As he uttered these words, the sword continued to ring and divine thunder rushed, echoing with the core of the cave in the distance. His elegant temperament dissipated, replaced by unfathomable majesty.

In just a moment, the surging divine thunder and sword intent dissipated, replaced by endless, dazzling white Shaoyin light. His five senses were lost, and a breath of end and silence entangled his life.

Even here, with the divine thunder supporting him so much, the Shaoyin Immortal Light still seemed to be unstoppable and easily took his life, as if it was dissatisfied with what he had said before.

Zhou Shi was still unmoved. After a short stalemate, he heard a faint chuckle coming from the depths of the void. The sound came directly from his heart.

"Let them make their own decisions. Don't worry about the North Sea. That person won't be able to come back."

Jing Jing'er reappeared from the sword. He seemed to have noticed something strange just now. He understood it in his heart, but did not want to say much. The superior in front of him was good in every way and was almost destined to achieve great success, but his temperament was too rigid.

"Should I find a new owner? I feel like he won't live long."

Jing Jing'er was muttering to himself, but he saw Zhou Shi looking at him with a fierce gaze. Only then did he remember that he was in [Fengdu] and his thoughts could not be hidden. He immediately became serious and maintained the [Five Chisels Heart Record].

Zhou Shi continued to cast his gaze towards the [Qingyang Weiling Pavilion] below. The people chosen by Guanlu Palace had already arrived, and even many of the Jindan direct descendants were gradually coming. When the thunder tribulation essence liquid appeared, endless killing would surely occur again.
