Mysterious mirror hanging high

"The Ding stabilizes the mountains and rivers..."

"town!"

Yuwen Baoding's expression changed slightly when he saw Jing Yu and Yuan Ji arrive. He used the force field ability of the Jiuzhou Ding to slightly block Yuwen Baoge's attack. He then jumped out of the spiritual energy storm in the center and sneered:

"Yuwen Baoge, you're really going backwards. You actually found two Jindan juniors to help you out from nowhere... I wonder, are these two your helpers or just cannon fodder?"

The golden spear in the air circled and flew back to Yuwen Baoge's hand. The man in golden armor stood there holding the spear and said lazily:

"Why would I, Yuwen Baoge, need any help to kill you? These two young brothers are the younger generations I want to cultivate. They have come as witnesses to see how I clean up the family. Otherwise, if I kill you in Yunding Palace today and no one knows about it, wouldn't that be like walking in the night in brocade clothes?"

Yuanji silently criticized in his heart: "You silly bastard, you really have the nerve to say that I have a powerful background and need a Yuanying-level like you to help me?"

Jing Yu kept silent, but just looked at Yuwen Baoding quietly, with a deep gaze, wondering what he was thinking about.

"It seems that my brother is determined to take my life today." Yuwen Baoding said lightly with a gloomy expression.

"Why do you ask even though you already know?"

Yuwen Baoge looked indifferent: "As a descendant of the Yuwen family, you don't want to be a legitimate descendant, but insist on being a dog for the imperial descendants of the Ying family... You have disgraced the family!"

Yuwen Baoding had originally been indifferent, but now, as if a sore spot had been touched, he turned terrifying. His tone was slightly mocking: "Direct descendant? You say you are a direct descendant, but how can you get any direct descendant treatment! How much of the spiritual resources I, Yuwen Baoding, have used to cultivate and break through over the years were taken from the Yuwen family!"

"I was severely injured by Huangfu Yanjun's sword strike that day. If it weren't for the Great Teleportation Talisman, I would have probably died! Baoding would like to ask, which family with a Divine Transformation cultivator in charge had their direct descendant nearly killed by a sword strike, yet actually turned a blind eye?"

"Besides, you said I was a dog for the descendants of the Divine Tripod Emperor... What a joke! What right do you, the Yuwen family, have to say that? The Yuwen family is a former vassal of the Divine Tripod Emperor, and there are still many of our hostages left in the Divine Tripod Heaven! If you're talking about being a dog, haven't we already been dogs of the Divine Tripod Immortal Dynasty for over a hundred thousand years?"

Yuwen Baoding sneered, "Has your backbone hardened now, and you suddenly want to straighten your back and behave like a man? Or have you seen the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty's fate come to an end, and are you thinking of changing your allegiance and continuing to serve those forces in this world in order to seek a chance to become a god?"

Yuwen Baoge snorted coldly, "Since you know the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty is doomed, why are you still following those imperial descendants down this path? It's truly unwise... You, Yuwen Baoding, have a reputation for being resourceful and decisive, but it seems you're only clever enough, lacking the wisdom to grasp the overall situation. That's all you've got."

Yuanji, who was standing by, rolled his eyes silently again: "A fool is laughing at someone who has taken a hundred steps and a half. Doesn't that mean you don't even have a little bit of cleverness?"

"There is no point in talking too much. In the end, the truth will be revealed through action." Yuwen Baoding said.

Yuwen Baoge laughed heartily upon hearing this. "You've truly lost your mind! In terms of spiritual root aptitude, Nascent Soul quality, magical powers, techniques, and magic weapon skills...how can you compare to me? Weren't you running away in fear the past few days? Why are you acting so arrogant now that you've come to Yunding Immortal Palace?"

Yuwen Baoding smiled mysteriously: "Since I am so sure of this, I have naturally laid a net here, waiting for you to fall into it!"

After saying that, Yuwen Baoding flashed and patted the white jade wall behind him. A secret door instantly appeared on the wall. With just a step back, Yuwen Baoding's figure disappeared into the side hall.

But Yuwen Baoding's chuckle still echoed in the hall: "I have set a trap, waiting for you to walk into it... Brother, if you still wish to protect yourself, you might as well retreat now. We can still live in peace and preserve our brotherhood... and there is no need to implicate these two young men and cause them to lose their lives in vain!"

Yuwen Baoge was furious and rushed towards the secret door with his golden spear in hand.

"Sir, the bandits are insidious. We will definitely be ambushed if we go there. It is better to proceed slowly and make long-term plans..." Jing Yu reminded hurriedly.

But Yuwen Baoge sneered, "How do I know that villain won't resort to some despicable tricks? Strength is always better than skill. No matter how many tricks he has, I can break them with just one spear!"

"This……"

"We've been brothers for so many years, but you're not as familiar with Yuwen Baoding's treacherous tactics as an outsider like me... Let's see if you'll suffer a loss today!"

Jing Yu cursed inwardly and followed.

After walking through a long secret passage, Jing Yu and Yuan Ji arrived at an almost completely closed secret room. When they entered the secret room, a loud "boom" sound came from behind. It turned out that the secret passage they had originally entered was also completely blocked.

Not far away, Yuwen Baoge was staring greedily at a corpse sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the secret room with his head bowed. Even though the owner of the corpse had been dead for many years, his face was still lifelike without a trace of decay, as if he was just sitting cross-legged in meditation and would wake up at any time.

"This is... the remains of the God!" Jing Yu said in surprise.

"Just a fake god."

Yuwen Baoding stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with melancholy. "Back then, this [Cloudtop Heavenly Monarch] was one of the most talented figures in the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty thousands of years ago. Unfortunately, he was born in the wrong era, or rather, the wrong faction... In the end, he could only achieve divine enlightenment in the cave heaven, and his path to the Tao was completely ruined."

"If he could become a god in this world, he might have the hope of ascending to heaven now!"

Yuwen Baoge couldn't move his eyes away for a moment. He grinned at the words and said, "Is there a large formation guarding this place? What kind of formation do you know, you traitor? You're just occupying the toilet without doing anything. If it were me, I would have taken this divine relic into my pocket long ago!"

Yuwen Baoding said calmly, "There is indeed an exquisite formation here that protects the remains of Yunding Tianjun. Recently, I have tried to break the formation with the [Blood Refining and Forbidden Breaking Technique] and have seen some success. I brought you here today. With your Yuanying Zhenjun's essence and blood, I believe it should be enough!"

"How shameless!" Yuwen Baoge strode forward, the golden armor on his body reappearing. The golden spear in his hand grew larger in the wind, turning into a giant divine weapon dozens of feet long. He slashed at Yuwen Baoding: "Wasn't it me who used your essence and blood to break the formation?"

"Formation, up!"

Yuwen Baoding looked calm as he raised one hand. Unbeknownst to him, a formation flag appeared in his hand. With a slight wave, black formation patterns appeared under Yuwen Baoge's feet.

"I have already set up a trap and a killing formation here, waiting for you to rush up. In fact, there is no need for any inducement. All the provocations and rhetoric I carefully prepared are just like winking at a blind man. It's a waste of time." Yuwen Baoding looked calm, as if he had already won.

On the other side, Yuwen Baoge, who was trapped in the killing array, was not angry but happy. He did not panic at all, but laughed arrogantly:

"Haha, I've been prepared for this move of yours! Did you know that this was just a trick I used against you?"
