Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 211 Invitation

On Xiangtu Island.

The dark green light of Guishui surged endlessly, and the gray scales were faintly visible in the wind and rain. The vast lightning swept through the Han family formation unscrupulously, leaving only ruins. The ferocious deep purple dragon eyes looked down, and the battlefield was silent.

The withered Taoist priest, the remaining monks, the Yaksha and others all knelt down at this time, not daring to say much, and were all imprisoned by the surrounding demon soldiers.

Xu Xuan's realm was extremely mysterious at this time, and his Dharma body was completely integrated with the entire sea. This ancient territorial sea continuously elevated his realm, and his soul and Dharma body gradually merged with this sea.

The dragon's body seemed to have changed again, his blood was further purified, and many magical powers emerged. The dark light of Ren water enveloped the dragon's body, and the dragon's body, as huge as a mountain, leaped in the sea.

"I should now be equal to Shakyamuni's Vajra of Vow Power."

Just as this thought arose in his mind, he saw the Tianchi shaking, and a giant jade hand stretched out and gently touched it.

The [Wu Yi Idle Stone Mysterious Light] that Yue Heng had once used reappeared, and the gray-white magic light shone down, quickly petrifying the entire desolate sea, and Xu Xuan's dragon body also turned into an inky stone statue inch by inch.

Xu Xuan was horrified and turned his dragon body to protect the monsters below. At this time, the void above opened up and a red light shot out, instantly piercing through the jade hand and pushing all the gray-white magic light back to the Tianchi.

Xu Xuan returned to his human form and stood at the bow of the ship with Yang Yuanxin.

"The old man has taken action, so there's no need to worry."

Yang Yuanxin's red eyes sparkled as she looked at Xu Xuan.

After a while, red fire was seen rising from the edge of Tianchi Lake, and a broken jade giant hand was rolled over, refining it into a drop of jade liquid, emitting misty colorful spiritual light, and the liquid slowly fell into Xu Xuan's hand.

Yang Yuanxin looked at the drop of jade liquid, thinking about something, and said softly:
"This is probably left by the [Chengyu] Holy Spirit. He should be at the early stage of Purple Mansion cultivation now."

"The stone man said there are two Purple Mansions. The one in the later period is a fairy gold spiritualist, and his Taoist name is [Hua Gu]. The remaining one is made of jade, and his Taoist name is [Cheng Yu]. He had a battle with the Dragon Son of [Yang Hu] in the past."

Xu Xuan understood and looked at the drop of jade liquid. The Shangguang Demon King rolled it up for him. He didn't know what it was used for, but he thought it should be a level one purple palace spiritual object, so he accepted it immediately.

Looking around, Qinglu and Yanyu, the two guards, had already cleared the battlefield. Many of the survivors on the seashore came forward, led by Xiayin, and knelt down, shouting:
"Greetings, Lord Mingdu."

Xu Xuan looked at Xia Yin. At the last moment, it was this mirage girl who led all the tribes to come. It was unknown what means she used to allow Xu Xuan to control this sea.

"Greetings, sir." Xia Yin looked at Xu Xuan respectfully. "I have been waiting in the Great Wilderness for two hundred years, following the orders of the Dragon King of Yanghu. Today, I finally see Mingze being reclaimed by this sea."

Xu Xuan listened to the other party's words, his mind racing, and asked, "Master Yang Hu, what do you want me to do? Please tell me clearly."

"Lord Yanghu was promoted by Guangze Dragon King. Doesn't Lord Yanghu know this?" Xia Yin below showed some doubt on her face.

Xu Xuan's face darkened. How could he know this? He said in a deep voice:

"Please tell me in detail. I have been traveling abroad since I was young, so I really don't know these old stories."

Seeing this, Xia Yin whispered:
"When Lord Yang Hu came here, he fought his way into the Heavenly Lake from the Great Desolate Sea. The other cultivators were unable to stop him. In the end, it was Cheng Yu Sheng Ling of the Stoneman Dao who took action. Just like Yue Heng today, he overwhelmed Lord Yang Hu with a cultivation level close to that of the Vajra of Will."

"Lord Yanghu could have been sealed in this sea back then, but he told me the time had not yet come and told me to wait for the next pure-blooded dragon to arrive. That was Lord Mingdu."

Xu Xuan was somewhat puzzled. Guangze had not mentioned anything about Yanghu in his decree. Moreover, Tiantuo had been able to help him achieve the body of a dragon entirely due to the magic of seal characters. Now, it seemed as if Yanghu had anticipated this.

"How many tribes do you have under your command now, and what are their cultivation levels?"

Xu Xuan looked at Xia Yin. This sea area had been renamed [Mingdu], named after his Taoist name.

As long as he stands here, he will reach the first level of Vajra realm, and his physique and magic power are close to that of Purple Mansion. He lacks in Taoism and magical powers, and can barely resist ordinary Purple Mansion early stage cultivators, but it is still difficult to resist those with extraordinary backgrounds like [Cheng Yu].

"There are a total of twenty-six clans in this area. Some have more than half a hundred members, while others only have two or three. Including Mu Hei and me, there are twelve people in the foundation-building stage, and I am the only one in the late stage."

When Xia Yin talked about this, her tone seemed a little depressed. Xu Xuan frowned when he heard it. It was so bleak. It seemed that these old subordinates had indeed had a hard time in the past.

Mu Hei, who was standing by, also stepped forward, shouted, and bowed. Xu Xuan looked at him and said in a deep voice:

"Gather all the tribes first and wait for my order."

After saying this, Xu Xuan sent the two monsters on their way. He and Yang Yuanxin stood at the bow of the ship and looked down. The monsters were searching for spiritual objects and magical instruments on Xiangtu Island.

Yang Yuanxin murmured, "Why didn't you use the Bingyang Flag back then?"

Xu Xuan looked a little embarrassed. He held Yang Yuanxin's hand, and a red light returned to him. He only said softly:
"He didn't use the Purple Palace Spirit Weapon, so I hid it as well, to counter his tactics. But who knew Yue Heng would be so disregarding of his dignity and directly recover his cultivation, leaping to the Vajra Realm. He severely injured me with one strike, but I didn't have the chance to use it."

Yang Yuanxin had a hint of blame in her eyes, and she just said:
"Yue Heng's realm is above the foundation-building stage. You still underestimate him. You must not harbor the intention of hiding your incompetence."

Xu Xuan accepted it, looking somewhat embarrassed. He had indeed been too arrogant before.

Looking back now, once Yue Heng fully revealed his cultivation, no means of building the foundation could be used in front of him. Xu Xuan wanted to use his spiritual weapon at the first moment, but was seriously injured by the blow and could not resist, and fainted.

"Even if one has reached the foundation building stage and holds several spiritual weapons, he probably won't be able to withstand Yue Heng's casual attack. He will need to rely on the Purple Mansion Formation to resist."

Xu Xuan silently felt the state he was in at the moment. As long as he stood above this sea area, he would be in the state of Vajra of Vow Power. Once he left, he would be in the middle stage of foundation building.

He and Yang Yuanxin rode the wind down together. The Han family's treasure house had been opened. There were many spiritual objects and magical instruments, most of which were earth virtues. They were all put into Qingwei's warship and became Xu Xuan's private property.

Looking at the island, it was a ruin, with only the six heavenly tablets still standing. Xu Xuan collected them casually and turned them into a small ink-colored tablet with a five-scale pattern on it, but the python was missing.

"An ancient magical instrument?"

Xu Xuan held up the stone tablet, and with a thought, he saw a green viper emerge from the tablet. Dark green magic light surged around its body, and poisonous mist spewed out of its mouth. It was a green viper in the late foundation building stage, allowing Xu Xuan to drive it.

He increased his magic power, and a purple-gold Teng Snake with golden feathers appeared, which was also in the late stage of foundation building. Then there were the hook snake, the transformed snake and the singing snake.

Lu Lian came over at this time and saw Xu Xuan activating the stone tablet, so he said softly:
"This is the [Six-Scale Monument], which was refined by a certain master in the Dragon Palace in the past. It records the true form of the six meridians. The spiritual objects used are ordinary, but the method is sophisticated, and it can manifest the form of six scales."

Xu Xuan collected these scaled snakes. This [Six-Scale Monument] was extremely precious. With ordinary foundation-building techniques, it could manifest a scaled snake of the same realm. With Xu Xuan's current magic power, he could directly manifest all six scales.

"It's a pity that without the python, a lot of magic has been lost."

Xu Xuan sighed lightly, put the item away temporarily, and then asked:

"Have you found the Han family's inheritance? Their family has produced a true master, so they must have the Purple Mansion technique." Lu Lian took out a scroll of bright yellow stone and said softly:
"I only saw the foundation-building techniques, but no Purple Mansion chapters. I asked some of the remaining members of the Han family, and they said that the real person in the clan, [Xiang Yi], broke through with the secret method of the Stone Man Dao, but later died, and did not leave behind any Purple Mansion techniques."

Xu Xuan took it and took a look. It was the "Hefeng Lianyue Method", a fourth-grade Gentu method, which was cultivated into [Hengyue He]. This immortal foundation had the magic of refining mountains for one's own use. It was the same method as the previous Yue Heng, but there was no Zifu chapter.

"How should we deal with Taoist Ku, Monk Kongyu, and that Yaksha?"

Lu Lian looked at Xu Xuan and saw Xu Xuan smiling:
"Let the people behind them redeem us, and use the spiritual objects and magical tools in exchange for our lives. If no one wants them, then we'll just kill them."

Lu Lian understood and immediately sent someone to do the job.

"The Great Desolate Sea has already been occupied. As for the Heavenly Lake, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to enter it until I reach the Purple Mansion."

Xu Xuan was determined. There were many Purple Mansions in Tianchi, and the stone man said there was one in the late Purple Mansion stage. If he really wanted to settle in Tianchi, he had to achieve supernatural powers first.

He flipped his hand and took out a large bright yellow seal, which was the Han family's purple palace low-grade spiritual weapon, [Heng Yue]. This seal belonged to the Gentu sect and was refined from a spiritual mountain. Its main function was to suppress, and it could also be used to refine and drive away mountains.

Holding the seal, Xu Xuan rode the wind and stood in the center of the entire sea. He activated the spiritual weapon, and the light of Gentu surged. The broken Xiangtu Island gradually gathered together, and the Prison Star Island in the east was also moved over.

The two islands gradually merged and turned into a solid land. Xu Xuan's mind moved, and the entire Mingdu Sea responded. The things of the Nanming Dragon Palace in the past emerged from the seabed and the treasure house, and floated in front of him.

Most of these broken bricks and tiles had lost their spirituality and turned into waste, but now, under Xu Xuan's command, they emitted bright light, and all kinds of gold, jade, corals, etc. in the sea floated up, and all kinds of spiritual objects seized also came up on their own.

These spiritual objects changed according to Xu Xuan's thoughts, gradually merged together, and turned into a magnificent dark gray hall. Xu Xuan looked at Yang Yuanxin and gestured slightly.

Yang Yuanxin understood what he meant at this time, and stepped forward in the wind, offering a large golden and red flag stained with blood of various colors, with the words "Bingyang" written on it.

A torrent of red fire gushed out from the huge flag. Xu Xuan also mobilized his magic power, and the Bing fire in the [Bingyang Flag] rolled down, refining the entire palace into one. Then the palace fell on the land. On the plaque of the main hall were two purple ancient characters, which were [Mingdu].

"Sea sealing is accomplished. Now you can focus on your cultivation."

Xu Xuan was just thinking about these plans when he saw Xia Yin coming hurriedly from afar on the wind. She stepped forward and said:

"Sir, a dragon from the East China Sea has arrived and invites you to visit his territorial waters to discuss something."

"Which one?"

Xu Xuan asked in a deep voice, but seeing Xia Yin was a little hesitant, he only said in a low voice:

"It's Dongfang Lanqing, the son of the Haoxuan Dragon King who monitors the sea. His territory is at the junction of the East China Sea and the South China Sea."

Yang Yuanxin, who was standing by, also had a strange look on his face, and said softly:

"Just after we established the palace and confirmed the ownership of this sea, this Lanqing Dragon Son came looking for us. I'm afraid he has been paying attention to the situation here for a long time."

"Haoxuan Dragon King's whereabouts are mysterious. He monitors the sea all year round. I'm afraid he is guarding against Mingze. Previously, the Han family pretended to hold a sea sacrifice ceremony, but the Dragon King never asked about it. I'm afraid his attitude towards you is not very good."

Xu Xuan understood, but since the other party took the initiative to contact him, there was no reason to refuse, so he asked:
"Where is the messenger?"

"The carriage is ready and waiting for you in the eastern sea."

"Since you have invited me, I will go and meet him."

Since Lan Qing is in charge of the border area between the East China Sea and the South China Sea, if he can get in touch with him, it will definitely be much easier to act in the future.

Xu Xuan looked at Yang Yuanxin beside him, gave her a few instructions, and asked her to handle the matter together with Lu Lan. Then he turned into a flash of lightning and headed towards the east.

In the eastern sea, a green chariot was parked on the sea, pulled by seahorses, and shining with precious light.

Many aquatic creatures gathered together, set up their supplies, and waited quietly for the distinguished guest. A flash of lightning fell from the sky in an instant. Xu Xuan left the Mingdu Sea at this time, and suddenly felt a sense of emptiness, returning to the middle stage of foundation building.

He flew down on the wind and saw an old man with a tortoise shell on his back and wearing a blue official uniform. He came forward, bowed, and said in a deep voice:
"Little Demon Turtle, hello to Youdu Dragon Son. My master heard that Mingze Noble Blood had come here, so he sent us to invite you to the palace for a chat."

Xu Xuan responded in a deep voice and entered the room. The furnishings inside were elegant and ancient, mostly decorated with dark wave patterns. A tortoise-like figure stood by with a hunched back.

"Is your master, Lan Qing Longzi, sealed in the area where the two seas of the southeast meet?"

The Turtle Prime Minister thought for a moment, then replied respectfully:

"My master is currently acting as a temporary representative. Legally speaking, the outer sea is still under the rule of the Haoxuan Dragon King. However, the king is currently monitoring the sea in the Tianchi Lake, so the management will be temporarily in the hands of Lanqing Dragon Son."

"Lord Youdu is still at the foundation-building stage, yet he has been granted the right to seal a sea. This is extremely rare even in the Dragon Palace."

The Turtle Minister spoke eloquently, and then said:

"The Dragon Palace and the Sea Sea are modeled after the Zhou Dynasty, where kings were enfeoffed and lands were divided. It was built on favorable geographical conditions. As long as the enfeoffment was granted, miracles would immediately appear."

Xu Xuan saw that the tortoise knew a lot, so he continued to ask:

"What's the difference between this method and the so-called Pure Land Vows and Shinto incense?"

"Vow Power Vajra, incense and deity, this is to seek harmony among people, and fulfillment depends on the wishes of all living beings. Although I don't want to be like us, like the sealed sea, where the gods are trapped in one place, but if I have to plan for believers, there are more limitations."

When Turtle Prime Minister talked about these two things, a look of disdain appeared on his old face.

Xu Xuan understood in his mind, if this is the case, the dragon species used the sealing of the sea to suppress almost every sea area with the means of the Purple Mansion, no wonder it could dominate the world at its peak.

After moving forward for a long time, it seemed to have arrived at the destination. The carriage went into the sea and finally stopped deep under the sea.

"We have arrived at the Haoyuan Palace. Please follow me in, sir."

The Turtle Prime Minister spoke in an old voice as he led Xu Xuan out of the carriage. They saw an ancient and elegant palace standing on the bottom of the sea.

Many aquatic creatures stood on both sides, kneeling and bowing. From the depths of the palace came a burst of hearty and friendly laughter, which came through the sea water.

"But Youdu is here, please come in quickly."

Xu Xuan's dragon blood felt something at this moment, and the scales on his neck emitted a thick, deep, dark light, passing through the dark sea water.
