Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 45: Observation of Laws
Outside the palace, thunder roared and dark clouds gathered.

There are two halls in total. The main hall in the center is only for thunder practitioners to enter. It has the words "Guan Lu" written on it. It is the place where the skills are taught. Next to it is a side hall called "Na Wen", which is the place where all kinds of spells are stored.

This place only involves some foundation-building level exercises. It is only a few palaces on the outermost edge. It was shaken down first and separated from [Surging Tribulation Heaven]. It cannot be regarded as a true entry into the Taoist treasures inside the cave.

However, only after acquiring the technique and cultivating the foundation of this path, and then the cave heaven is truly opened, can you get more benefits.

The two palaces are bright blue in color, extremely vast and large, stretching as far as the eye can see. On the eaves are images of various exotic beasts, such as blue bulls, thunder birds, and even coiled dragons, which are lifelike.

The direct descendants of each family entered the Nawen Hall first, and the Lei Xiu they brought with them were allowed to enter the Guanlu Hall to comprehend the skills first. Xu Xuan and Yang Yuanxin then acted separately for the time being.

This Guanlu Palace seems to be spiritual and only allows people to enter. Many immortal and demon mountains are not well prepared, and the people they bring in either have poor qualifications, insufficient foundation, or bad backgrounds, and are not allowed to enter.

Up to now, only three people have entered. The first two people who entered did not make much noise, but the third person who entered was different.

This was a man in a black robe with a rough appearance, shaved hair and a pigtail. His clothes had a left-side lapel, a narrow robe and long boots. He carried a gilded sword on his back, engraved with a picture of a god riding a white horse crossing a river.

This person's cultivation has firmly reached the eighth level of Qi Refining. He has a solid foundation and a majestic aura. It is obvious that he is not a casual cultivator, but a direct descendant of a family, who happens to practice thunder magic.

When the man entered, the palace door opened wide, and golden divine thunder surrounded him like mercury leaking onto the ground, transforming into gods beating drums. Guards lined up with flags, each holding a golden gourd and holding axes in unison, and loud voices of praise arose, praising the emperor's virtue.

"He cultivates the Divine Thunder Path, which has been passed down in an orderly manner and has been recognized. I wonder which family he belongs to?"

Tiantuo finally spoke. Since there was no Zifu surrounding him for the time being, he relaxed a little.

The divine thunder is bright gold in color, while the thunder that Xu Xuan practices is purple-crimson in color. This was what Daoyan had told Xu Xuan before.

"I want to go in. Will there be any changes on your side?"

Xu Xuan was a little hesitant because of Tiantuo. Tiantuo was the remnant soul of Zifu, and he was afraid that if he entered, it would cause changes in the Guanlu Palace.

"Just seal me with your pure energy first."

Tian Tuo's voice was somewhat helpless, and he said in a low voice:

"Your ancient monument is of extremely high status and can completely hide my traces. However, when I am suppressed, I cannot see the outside world. You better be careful."

Xu Xuan agreed and urged the clear energy to cover Tiantuo. Now it was up to him to make the decision.

At this time, two more people entered. The former was a young man wearing bright blue armor, and his cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining. The latter was a demon with a pair of flesh wings, stirring up wind and thunder, and also entered. The two did not cause any unusual phenomena.

Xu Xuan did not wait any longer and walked straight towards the Guanlu Hall and arrived in front of the hall.

The thunder in the sky shook and fell on the sea of clouds, turning into a lake of thunder, which was somewhat similar to the one in Xu Xuan's sea of qi. There were bursts of roars, and purple thunders kept rising into the sky, exploding and falling.

The thunder condensed and turned into a god with a human head and a dragon body. His belly bulged and thundered, and the sound was as loud as thousands of mountains collapsing.

This strange phenomenon was even more powerful than that of the man who cultivated divine thunder, and it immediately attracted a lot of attention from the surroundings. Xu Xuan did not dare to delay and hurried into the hall.

The Guanlu Hall was extremely spacious. The roof was a sea of clouds, and the walls were not visible. Lightning flashed, and gusts of wind and rain came down.

There are now six people in the hall including Xu Xuan. It seems that the time has not come yet and the inheritance is not obvious.

Xu Xuan looked over and saw that there should be three direct descendants of the Purple Mansion entering, the man with a knife on his back, the young man in bright blue armor, and the monster with a pair of flesh wings. Their cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.

As for the remaining two, they were slightly weaker. One was a woman in purple clothes, who was at the eighth level of Qi training. Her face was covered with a mask, so her true appearance could not be seen. The remaining one was a man in a silver robe holding a gun, who was at the seventh level of Qi training.

After a while, six more people came in one after another, but their cultivation was not as good as before, so they could only sit on the outer circle. The inner circle was occupied by the six people who came earlier.

Now that there were twelve people gathered in the hall, the thunderclouds above took notice and began to accumulate lightning.

The way to receive inheritance here is to survive the tribulation. After enduring for a certain period of time, a drum will be sounded and scriptures will be revealed.

Everyone looked a little surprised. Fighting was not prohibited in this place. What would happen if they went to overcome the tribulation first, obtained the skills, and were then besieged?

Finally, it was the man with the knife on his back who moved, snorted coldly, and stepped into the boundless thundercloud above the hall to survive the tribulation. Then the people around him also moved and began to survive the tribulation, but some people did not move, as if they were waiting for an opportunity.

This thundercloud is spiritual. It sends down thunder according to one's cultivation level. It can measure one's aptitude and grant inheritance to the best ones.

The most relaxed of the group was the man with the sword on his back, holding it horizontally, constantly splitting the bright blue lightning. That sword was truly extraordinary, an ancient magical weapon, even surpassing Xu Xuan's [Universal Lightning and Fire Pearl].

The winged monster has revealed its true form, with a green face and fangs, a one-horned leopard tail, a pig-like head and a ghost-like body. Its hands and feet are all red gold in color. It also practices the art of divine thunder, and wind and thunder are raging wherever it moves.

Xu Xuan used his magic weapon, the [Universal Thunder and Fire Pearl], to withstand the attack, but the lightning grew more powerful over time, forcing him to reveal his true form and transform into a green dragon.

This dragon has a jade horn on its head and is covered with green scales all over its body, except for one reverse scale on its neck, which is a deep dusty gray color.

After revealing his true form, Xu Xuan's pressure was greatly reduced. His body was strong and friendly to thunder, and he immediately caught the surging thunder.

The one who made the fastest progress here was the man with a knife on his back. His thunder tribulation had come to an end. Although he had suffered a lot of damage, he still looked very energetic.

A golden Taoist book fell down and landed directly in front of him. The man with a knife on his back was a little happy and put it into the mustard seed.

In a flash, three people surrounded him. They were the young man in the bright blue armor and the two old monks who came behind him. The three seemed to know each other and were ready to deal with the person in front of them.

"Xiao Xueya, you are from Northern Liao, not from our country of Li. Yet, you want to take this sixth-grade 'Chaotian Xielei Jing' (Appreciating Thunder Scripture) away. Have you asked us?"

The young man in the bright blue armor spoke first, questioning Xiao Xueya who was carrying a knife.

This person was none other than Luo Shunfu of the Thunder Dao. He had just survived a thunder tribulation and obtained some martial arts skills, but the two people beside him had not moved, which clearly indicated they had something up their sleeve.

Xiao Xueya snorted coldly, and said with some sarcasm:
"Luo Shunfu, you Nanli people are all so unpleasant. If you can't get recognition and want to fight for it, just say it directly. I am just one person, so what do I have to fear?"

After he finished speaking, the man swung his sword and the hazy sword energy came down with golden thunder, heading straight for Luo Shun's face. The young man was able to resist it and looked embarrassed.

"Xiao Xueya, you are ignorant of etiquette and acted without authorization. I will have no choice but to let you witness the power of my Thunder Commanding Dao."

Although Luo Shunfu shouted angrily, he did not step forward. Instead, he let the two cultivators beside him take action first, and he stayed behind to provide support, which made Xiao Xueya on the opposite side even more disdainful.

"The highest-grade item here is the sixth-grade 'Chaotian Xielei Jing'. If you obtain it, you can find the Purple Mansion chapter in the cave later. You must obtain it."

Luo Shunfu has already obtained a fifth-grade divine thunder technique, and asked the winged thunder ghost to take away another fifth-grade technique. That technique is just a variation of his divine thunder technique, so there is no need to pay attention to it.

The practice of the Chi Lei Dao is divine thunder. The master of the sect has ordered that this book "Chaotian Xie Lei Jing" must be obtained.

After all, he was from the Zifu Taoist school that practiced thunder magic. Including Luo Shunfu himself, he had sent three people in just to target Xiao Xueya.

At that moment, the four of them fought in a group, causing the clouds to stir and various colored lights to surge. For some reason, the thunder that Luo Shunfu had raised had some blood in it and was not pure enough. It was suppressed by Xiao Xueya's sword energy. Golden thunder rushed and there were sounds of praise everywhere.

Luo Shunfu cast a talisman, a golden glow emanating from it. With the help of the two men beside him, they finally managed to hold off Xiao Xueya. Xu Xuan's side also reached a critical moment. As the thunderbolt gradually subsided, a purple jade Taoist book fell to the ground. He hastily put it away, but before he could examine it more closely, two more men surrounded him.

One was the man in silver robe holding a gun, and the other was a monster with a wolf head and a human body, who was one of the six who came later. The two of them joined forces and locked onto Xu Xuan.

The man in silver robe also tried to survive the tribulation, but he didn't make it. The wolf demon wanted to compete with him, so he waited there early and didn't survive the tribulation.

"But you are a sir who walked out of the Dragon Court? My name is Cang Shi, and I work for Zhaixingyuan. I have no choice but to offend you. I hope you will not blame me."

The wolf demon spoke first, looking at the [Xuan Yin Ni Scale] on Xu Xuan's neck. His voice was respectful, but his aura was firmly locked on Xu Xuan.

The silver-robed man was from the immortal path and obviously had no scruples. He pointed his gun at Xu Xuan and said with a smile:
"No one from the Damingze comes out. Those who do come out are considered to have left the Dragon Court. Over the years, many mixed-blooded dragons have been killed. Why bother being polite?"

"My name is Zhang Mingyuan, from the Zhang family of Youzhou. I'm here to seek the 'Ze Lei Lu Long Jing'. Dragon Son, please don't make things difficult for me."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Mingyuan came forward with a gun, but his momentum was far inferior to that of the direct descendant of Zifu. It was obvious that he was a branch of the Zhang family and came here because of Xiu Lei.

The wolf demon had no backing and was captured by Zhaixingyuan to do something. He was able to cultivate to the seventh level of Qi Refining, so naturally he had a deep mind. Although Damingze did not appear in the world, who knew what kind of background this dragon son had, so it was better to try to offend him as little as possible.

Here, Xu Xuan transformed into a half-human, half-dragon form again and said in a deep voice:

"I represent the Bingri Fengyan Crow lineage. Do you really want to fight me?"

Zhang Mingyuan was a little less thoughtful and actually laughed and said:

"The Fire Crows are powerful, but they can't control Youzhou. My Zhang family has joined forces with Zhaixingyuan. This dragon son should just accept the challenge."

After saying that, the opponent thrust his spear forward, bringing up streaks of purple lightning, also cultivating [Thunder].

The spear was a mid-grade foundation-building magic weapon. The spear head seemed to be made of some kind of cold jade. When it stabbed, cold light flowed and turned into pieces of silver snow.

Xu Xuan summoned a magic sword, which was none other than [Dan Ting], but after being forged by Tiantuo, its appearance had changed. The originally silver-white sword body had turned red, and it had some demonic aura, and its original shape could not be seen at all.

He changed all his sword moves and just swung them freely. The sword energy poured down like a river from the sky and the sound of thunder continued, cutting through the opponent's pieces of snow and bolts of lightning one by one.

Zhang Mingyuan was getting a little anxious. He activated his magical tool, and the cold energy became even stronger. He roared:
"Cang Shi, why don't you come and help me? Have you forgotten what Zhaixingyuan told you?"

The wolf demon then reluctantly went into battle, but still did not use his full strength. It was obvious that he was in a dilemma and did not want to offend either side.

He only transformed into his original form, a giant green-haired wolf with scales on his body. The lightning around him was bright blue. He was not practicing the two thunders of the Divine Shock, and no one knew what he was practicing. When he attacked, there was a patter of wind and rain.

Xu Xuan and Zhang Mingyuan engaged in a fierce battle, their purple thunder clashing and stirring up waves of heavenly sound, like a river gushing out, rumbling endlessly and scattering the surrounding clouds. Zhang Mingyuan's cultivation was insufficient, and he was eventually sent flying into the distance.

Cang Shi's cultivation seemed to be even more profound. He wanted to avoid the battle at first, but when he saw that Zhang Mingyuan was about to be defeated, he had no choice but to sacrifice a large talisman with the Big Dipper on it, and sent it down to suppress Xu Xuan.

The talisman cast starlight, causing Xu Xuan's Qi to stagnate and even his magic to become sluggish.

At that moment, Zhang Mingyuan rushed back again, and the cold air on the spear dissipated and went straight towards Xu Xuan. The purple lightning condensed into a point, fell on the tip of the spear, and merged with the silver snow. It was obvious that he had used a killing move.

Xu Xuan revealed the body of a dragon, used the sword energy as a cloud, drove away thunder and lightning, and sacrificed the [Universal Thunder and Fire Pearl]. The dragon body leaped and began to revolve around the pearl.

The purple lightning fell on the precious pearl, causing the [Puhua Thunder and Fire Pearl] to vibrate violently. Xu Xuan lifted it up with his jade horns, like a dragon playing with the Li Pearl.

The energy of thunder and fire rose, and the gem began to spin on Xu Xuan's corner, spinning faster and faster. Thunder and fire shot out and hit Zhang Mingyuan and Cang Shi, forcing the two to take shelter temporarily.

The Cang servant was huge, and half of his body was pierced by the mixed thunder and fire of [Thunder Flame] and [Rightening Heart Thunder]. He wailed and quickly took back the Big Dipper Talisman to protect himself and Zhang Mingyuan.

It was very strenuous for Xu Xuan to activate the [Universal Thunder and Fire Pearl]. After just a few dozen breaths, it was almost drained of his energy. Seeing that the talisman had not yet broken, he swallowed the pill and became ruthless.

The [Thunder Clouds in the Sky] in his Qi Sea began to move, and the sleeping thunder insects woke up, in line with the meaning of Jingzhe. Dan Ting jumped for joy and helped to drum up thunder.

Xu Xuan's spiritual consciousness drove the [Universal Thunder and Fire Pearl], silently reciting the spell, and the pearl fell on the big talisman opposite. The thunder and fire collided and exploded, and a cloud with the smell of saltpeter and charcoal rose up.

[Thunderbolt Flame] is a [Supreme Fire], a thunderbolt fire that does not burn or ignite. Its nature is like thunder. With the help of thunder, it explodes instantly, overturning the surrounding dark clouds and instantly defeating the Big Dipper Talisman.

Xu Xuan held the sword in the dragon head, and with the long cry of [Dan Ting], he used the [Da Zhen Qi Lei Guang]. A bit of chaotic purple energy emerged on the tip of the sword, and poured down mixed with the sword energy.

Zhang Mingyuan was the first to be hit. His silver robe was torn and his left arm was almost cut off. He fainted and was about to be in danger. A talisman on his body lit up and instantly swept him away from the Guanlu Hall.

Cang Shi had already transformed back into human form and hid behind Zhang Mingyuan. Although he was also seriously injured, he still had some strength left.

Xu Xuan's face was unfriendly, the dragon head drooped, and the lightning and fire beads flew back. The Cang servant was very decisive and bowed directly, saying:

"Sir, don't do anything yet, I will do it myself."

After saying that, the servant Cang became furious and crashed headfirst into the thunder and fire bead, leaving half of his face gone.

Seeing his actions, Xu Xuan let it go. After all, the wolf demon was holding back, so Xu Xuan didn't need to push him too hard.

The wolf demon saw that his injuries were serious enough and he could go back to deal with it. He then raised the half of his face and laughed, saying softly:

"My home is Cangyue Mountain in Youzhou. If you have the chance to come, I will definitely welcome you and offer you spiritual objects to repay your kindness today."

Cang Shi is still in shock. He doesn't have a life-saving talisman like Zhang Mingyuan. The Beidou talisman has been broken. If Xu Xuan wants to kill him, it will be difficult for Cang Shi to escape.

Xu Xuan let him go, but suddenly remembered something and said softly:

"You can leave, but leave the skills you practiced behind."

Xu Xuan naturally would not miss this opportunity to collect martial arts techniques, but Cang Shi didn't care at all.

This wolf demon obviously does not value the inheritance of Taoism as much as the immortals do. Even his skills were picked up from somewhere unknown.

Here, Cang Shi handed Xu Xuan a jade slip and left in a hurry, fearing that the dragon son would go back on his word.

The surroundings were filled with traces of the previous battle, with lightning and fire scattered everywhere, and starlight sprinkled everywhere. Without caring about being happy, Xu Xuan quickly took the elixir to restore his magic power in case someone came again.

There are five sets of skills in this hall, three divine thunders and two shock thunders. The divine thunders are mainly fought between Luo Shunfu and Xiao Xueya, and the winged monster also fought with a cultivator.

As for Zhen Lei, the other one fell into the hands of the masked woman in purple. The other party had a high level of cultivation and used a Tianluo Umbrella to knock down the cultivators who came up to fight for it. No one provoked him for the time being.

When the other party saw Xu Xuan looking at him, he was a little dissatisfied, his eyes rolled and glared back. Xu Xuan quickly withdrew his gaze, focused on healing his wounds, and looked at the scripture in his hand.

What Cang Shi gave was the third-grade [Xiao Lei] martial arts method "Luo Yu Xing Ling Jue", and the purple jade Taoist book was the superior martial arts method of Xu Xuan, the fifth-grade [Zhen Lei] martial arts method "Ze Lei Lu Long Jing".

The lightning gradually subsided, and the fight in Guanlu Hall came to an end.
