Mysterious mirror hanging high

"Is this your backup plan?"

Yuwen Baoge fell to the ground, gasping for breath and speaking in a muffled voice.

The feeling of having his magic power exhausted was not pleasant. After all, he was a True Lord of the Nascent Soul, and a genius who had achieved the Seven Apertures in his Infancy. Normally, he could reach the sky as high as the Azure Heaven and explore the Nine Netherworlds. He had such great magical powers. But now, he had no magic power at all and couldn't even open his storage bag. All his magical powers, spells, magic weapons and talismans were of no use, so he was naturally panicked.

"That's right, brother. You were right. In terms of spiritual root aptitude, Nascent Soul quality, magical powers, and magic weapon techniques... you are better than me in every aspect. If I don't use some tricks, wouldn't I be sitting there waiting to die?"

Yuwen Baoding smiled triumphantly. "Actually, I already had the Yunding Immortal Palace's inheritance jade token a long time ago. However, the [Yunding Tianjun]'s incarnation remains are indeed protected by a formation, making them difficult to obtain. If I were to use my own blood and essence to break the restriction with the [Blood Refining Technique], it would not only take a long time, but would also damage my foundation. So, isn't that why I thought of my brother?"

"This formation of Yunding Tianjun will raise a black moon at the third quarter of noon every day, draining all the spiritual energy from the entire secret room. The first time I saw this formation, I devised this strategy, tailor-made for you."

Yuwen Baoding smiled and said, "I suspect the reason Yunding Tianjun set up such a soul-destroying formation is probably to prevent his own spirit-transforming remains from transforming into corpses. Otherwise, if this spirit-transforming remains is constantly nourished by spiritual energy, it is very likely that it will develop spiritual intelligence and transform into a zombie..."

"But no matter what, the good intentions of our ancestors are one thing. As the future master of Yunding Fairy Palace, it wouldn't be disrespectful for Baoding to make use of them."

"What? You deliberately took out the inheritance jade token as bait to lure me in?" A trace of panic flashed across Yuwen Baoge's face, but he suddenly thought of something:

"No, this place has become a place devoid of spiritual energy. Any cultivator who comes here will have their magic power drained away. I'm now a cripple, and aren't you the same?"

Yuwen Baoding's face finally revealed a look of disgust and contempt he had never shown before. He looked at Yuwen Baoge as if he were a fool. "Brother, besides your strong cultivation aptitude and a certain purity, what is it about you that earned the favor of our ancestor?"

"I've worked so hard to set up this plan, but if I don't have a way to win in one fell swoop, wouldn't that be like shooting myself in the foot?"

He clenched his fists and slowly walked to the Jiuzhou Ding that had fallen to the ground. He grabbed the tripod's legs with one hand. Instantly, the muscles in his arm swelled, and with a "whoosh", the huge bronze tripod weighing more than ten thousand pounds was actually lifted up by Yuwen Baoding with one hand!

"Cultivate both the magic and the body!" Yuwen Baoge exclaimed.

As a Taoist prodigy of the Yuwen family, Yuwen Baoge naturally knew the difficulty of practicing both the Dharma and the physical cultivation. Originally, there were quite a few decent body-building exercises in the Yuwen family's secret library of scriptures, and he had picked out a few of them to try practicing.

However, the body-refining exercises were too time-consuming and the progress was too slow, so he could not continue after reaching the foundation-building stage and simply gave up the path of dual cultivation of magic and body.

Moreover, after a cultivator condenses his Nascent Soul, his spirit and soul take control of the Nascent Soul, and the importance of his physical body and Dharma body is further reduced. When one reaches the Spirit Transformation Realm, one school of thought can even directly abandon the physical body and Dharma body, and appear in the world solely with the Nascent Soul spirit body. As for the other Spirit Transformation school that practices both physical body and Dharma body, because it is too difficult, no one is interested in it.

Now Yu Wen Baoding is carrying the tripod with one hand. It would be impossible to do that if he only has the foundation-building level of physical cultivation. This must be the golden elixir physique!

Sure enough, Yuwen Baoding held the Jiuzhou Ding in one hand and said nonchalantly, "I'm afraid you haven't thought that my aptitude for body training is even stronger than my aptitude for Qi training, right?"

"Now, I use the [Nine Tribulations Fire God Scroll] as a guide to hone my physical body to the late Jindan stage. Although the [Nine Tribulations Fire God Body] condensed from the [Nine Tribulations Fire God Scroll] will be suppressed to a certain extent in the Absolute Spirit Land, I can now barely maintain the physical cultivation level of the middle Jindan stage!"

"It's more than enough to deal with a useless person like you who has lost all his magic power."

Yuwen Baoding carried the huge bronze tripod and walked towards Yuwen Baoge step by step. With every step he took, Yuwen Baoge's heart tightened.

"Slow down!"

Yuwen Baoge suddenly calmed down and said in a serious tone: "You can't kill me!"

Yuwen Baoding paused and said with a half-smile, "Oh?"

Yuwen Baoge's courage seemed to grow stronger, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "I am one of the most valued direct descendants of my ancestors. If you kill me, you will definitely not be able to escape the tracking of the soul mark, and then the clan will not let you go."

"Hahaha!"

Yuwen Baoding shook his head and laughed, "Don't worry, brother. I've already thought it through. I'll kill you here and use your blood and essence to break the formation protecting the remains of the God Transformation. After taking the inheritance of the Cloudtop Immortal Palace, I'll use secret methods to escape back to [Shen Ding Tian]. It all depends on whether the ancestor dares to go to [Shen Ding Tian] and ask the royal family for the return!"

Yuwen Baoding used his free hand to form a sword, gesturing towards Yuwen Baoge's forehead not far away for a while. Finally, he sighed and lowered his arm. "After all, we are born of the same mother. This blood relationship cannot be severed. In the end, I can't bring myself to do it."

"That's all."

"It's better not to stain your hands with the blood of your brothers..."

After saying that, Yuwen Baoding grabbed the tripod legs and threw the huge bronze tripod towards Yuwen Baoge!

"That's much more respectable!"

A huge shadow enveloped Yuwen Baoge. He only saw the huge bronze tripod getting closer and closer, and soon it blocked out the sky and the sun, and he could no longer see anything else. An unprecedented look of despair appeared on his face, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.

call--

A breeze blew by, and the expected severe pain did not come as expected. Yuwen Baoge opened his eyes tremblingly, and suddenly found a figure in front of him.

The figure had a very thick back and was wearing a gray robe with the sleeves rolled up. His exposed arms had muscles as distinct as sculptures. He held one leg of the Jiuzhou Ding in each hand and blocked the huge bronze tripod in front of him.

Yuwen Baoding's expression was even more stunned at this time. He stared blankly at Jing Yu as he casually threw his own life-saving magic weapon aside, and patted the dust and rust on his hands, as if he had just done something insignificant.

He looked at the gray-robed young man in front of him and suddenly remembered something. The powerful memory of a Nascent Soul cultivator allowed him to quickly match a certain person in his memory with the person in front of him:

"Are you... Taoist Xuanjing? The foundation-building alchemist from Xiaoyao Immortal City who's on good terms with Xiaojin, Xiaoyan, and the others?"
