Mysterious mirror hanging high

A month later, a green light with terrifying speed flew out from the bottom of the sea of ​​this nameless deserted island and flew straight towards the Song family of Xingluo Island.

Jing Yu and Song Jinghong were wrapped in Song Jianxu's escape light and returned to the Song family together. It was the first time that Jing Yu felt the escape speed of a great immortal in the late Jindan stage. It was indeed incomparable to that of a foundation-building cultivator.

"Attention! We are about to enter the Xingluo Island group. I suspect that Old Ghost Wang and Granny Zhang are still lying in ambush nearby. If I hadn't recovered from my injuries, I wouldn't have dared to show up. But now I'm not afraid anymore. I won't get entangled with them. I'll just have the white ape open a hole in the [Starry Array] and rush back inside."

In the past few years, Jing Yu has also heard Song Jinghong talk about the grievances between the many Jindan families in the Red Dust Sea. Each family pursues the strategy of "making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby ones". The Wang family and the Zhang family, which border the territory of the Xingluo Island, are both mortal enemies of the Song family, and both families have great Jindan masters in the late stage.

The "Old Ghost Wang" and "Grandma Zhang" mentioned by Song Jianxu are none other than the late Jindan great masters of the Wang and Zhang families, Wang Fujia, who is famous in the Red Dust Sea for his witchcraft, and Zhang Qingmang, a swordsman in the late Jindan stage.

Although Song Jianxu is a great immortal in the late Jindan stage, just like the other two, his natal magic weapon [Sixty-four Pure Spirit Bamboo Divination Sticks] is only an auxiliary magic weapon and is not good at attacking or defending. Therefore, in terms of combat power, he is considered to be on the weaker level among the great immortals. He cannot defeat either Wang Fujia or Zhang Qingmang alone, let alone the two of them joining forces.

In fact, it stands to reason that for a Great Immortal like Song Jianxu who has a short lifespan, ordinary Jindan families, even if they are hostile to him, should avoid provoking him if possible. After all, the closer a Great Immortal is to the end of his lifespan, the more unscrupulous he acts, which is a strong deterrent.

Moreover, there are many forces in the Red Dust Sea, and there are probably seven or eight Jindan families that have bad relations with the Song family of Xingluo Island. Why is it that only the Wang and Zhang families can make the two great masters in charge of the clan join forces and try to kill Song Jianxu even at the risk of his revenge before his death?

This is another public case that has been going on for nearly a hundred years without any result. Even Song Jinghong was very secretive about the matter and never told Jing Yu.

Song Jianxu brought two people and drove the light of escape into the Xingluo Islands. When they arrived in front of the clan's large formation, they saw the surrounding light distorted. A concealing magic circle suddenly became ineffective due to the fluctuation of magic power, revealing a male and a female cultivator, both of whom were in the late Jindan stage.

The male cultivator was a gloomy old man wearing a black robe. His hair was a mixture of black and white. The black robe was embroidered with various poisonous insect patterns. These patterns did not seem to be dead objects. They kept wriggling on the robe, looking extremely strange.

The female cultivator looked like an old woman with white hair. She was dressed in plain clothes without any special decorations. The only thing she had on her back was a magic sword that shone with green light. At the end of the hilt was a bunch of bright red sword tassels, which were gently lifted up in the direction of the sea breeze.

"How are you, fellow Taoists? I thought you had returned to your respective tribes long ago, but I didn't expect you to be waiting here for several years. You are really a dog-skin plaster." Song Jianxu said angrily.

Wang Fujia, whose body was covered with poisonous insects, narrowed his eyes, stared at Song Jianxu from head to toe for a while, and said slowly:

"Fellow Daoist Song is truly capable. He took a blow from Fellow Daoist Zhang, and despite being severely injured, he was still able to find a way to expel the poisonous insect from me. You are indeed worthy of being the [Heavenly Calculator], renowned throughout the Red Dust Sea for your divination. You actually managed to calculate a way out for me."

The old swordsman Zhang Qingmang sneered, "You've healed so well after taking my sword strike? Song Jianxu, your combat prowess is average, but your wood-type magic power is incredibly pure, and you're quite skilled at healing."

"Since you know that my injury has healed, why are you two still lingering here?" Although Song Jianxu's tone was calm, Jing Yu, who was enveloped by the great master's escape light, had an astonishing sense of perception. He always felt that the great master Song seemed to lack confidence, as if he was a little weak because of something.

At this moment, the stars on the islands and reefs of Xingluo Island shone brightly. Suddenly, a gap opened in the main island's formation, and a middle-aged scholar with the cultivation base of the early Jindan stage walked out. The middle-aged scholar bowed to Song Jianxu and said respectfully:

"White Ape respectfully welcomes the ancestor home!"

Only then did Jing Yu feel that Song Jianxu seemed to have finally breathed a sigh of relief. He transformed into a streak of light and slipped into the gap in the formation. He turned to Wang Fujia and Zhang Qingmang and said with a smile:

"Two fellow Daoists, why don't you leave? Do you want to sit in the formation for a while?"

Even if Song Jianxu is only a great immortal, once he enters the formation and controls the clan's formation, even if Wang Fujia and Zhang Qingmang, two late Jindan cultivators, join forces, they will be in trouble. Instead, they will be trapped in the formation and easily caught by Song Jianxu. If that happens, they will end up making things worse and the gain will be greater than the loss.

So the two great masters didn't even bother to say a harsh word, turned around and transformed into two beams of light and left.

At this time, the middle-aged scholar came forward, held Song Jianxu's arm, and asked with concern:

"Father-in-law, the White Ape has not left the formation in the past few years, and has also confined all the direct and collateral branches of the clan within the formation. Now, we have finally waited for your return."

"White Ape, you have worked hard." Song Jianxu nodded and said with relief.

"Uncle!" Song Jinghong also hurried over to pay his respects.

Sun Baiyuan glanced at Song Jinghong calmly, his tone obviously calmed down a little, and he just nodded: "Jinghong, I'm glad you're okay."

Jing Yu carefully observed the middle-aged scholar in the early stage of the Golden Core stage, and thought to himself, "This person must be the Song family's only other Golden Core cultivator besides Master Song, the other Master Sun Baiyuan!"

"It is said that this man was once the son-in-law of Song Jianxu's granddaughter. He was lucky enough to form a low-grade golden elixir. Although his wife died, he never remarried, nor did he leave the Song family to set up his own family. He has remained like this until now."

In fact, Song Jianxu's life span is coming to an end, and the only one left in his family is Sun Baiyuan, a Jindan cultivator from another family who is still in his prime. This is a rather embarrassing thing. Once Song Jianxu dies, and the two direct Jindan seeds of the Song family who are highly expected by them fail to form Jindan, it will be hard to say whether the Song family will have the surname Song or Sun.

At this moment, Jing Yu suddenly realized: "Even if Master Song hasn't recovered from his injuries and has returned to Xingluo Island, all Sun Baiyuan needs to do is to open a hole in the formation and quickly slip through. Those two great masters can't still chase him into the formation? Why are they still waiting here?"

"It's just a gamble."

"I bet Sun Baiyuan, this outsider, won't open the formation and let Song Jianxu in!"
