I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

Nie Hengzhou said, "In the Qingxuan Continent, the recognition of a divine weapon's master is not based on bloodline, but on the cultivator's cultivation talent."

"Ah? Talent? You mean you couldn't get the artifact to recognize you because you don't have the talent to cultivate it."

The patriarch's expression changed, and he whispered, "Perhaps, it's not at the bottom of the sea?"

He raised his head and saw that everyone was looking at him with a smile, and he felt a little self-deceiving.

Gu Liyue said, "Actually, I think it's unwise for you to find a cultivator to try to get the artifact to recognize its master. If it really recognizes a cultivator as its master, then..."

The clan leader knew what Gu Liyue hadn't said.

He needs to digest this now.

In fact, he rarely came into contact with monks from the mainland. Every time he did so, he would abduct the monks and have the king take them directly into the forbidden area to try to awaken the artifact. Twelve years have passed, and he has never succeeded. After leaving the temple, the monks would turn into corpses.

Because it was the teachings of his ancestors, he never doubted it and just followed the king's orders. The king was eager to awaken the artifact and didn't care about much else.

In fact, he didn't know why Wang had to awaken the artifact. He always felt that this matter was unnecessary.

This time he brought nine monks into the city, and he also advised the king not to let them go. Once outsiders knew that there was such a magical artifact in Meiyin City, and it was an artifact that had no owner, then Meiyin City would never have peace.

He is already old. No matter how high his cultivation is, it is time for him to die and he will no longer be able to protect these young people.

It doesn’t matter whether the artifact can be awakened or not. As long as the matter of Meiyin City is not spread out, Meiyin City can maintain temporary peace.

He originally thought that since he had invited people here, he would let Wang try before taking any action. He did not expect these monks to be so smart. It seemed that he could not keep them.

The clan leader's expression became stern, and murderous intent was evident. Gu Liyue sensed the clan leader's murderous intent, and she moved, standing in front of everyone.

The clan leader moved quickly, striking out with one palm, directly hitting Gu Liyue.

"boom!"

The power of the Spirit Transformation Stage was so terrifying that the entire room shook continuously, and then collapsed with a loud bang. The stirred-up sand and rocks blurred everyone's vision.

Nie Hengzhou shouted, "Li Yue!"

Everyone was affected by the strong energy and retreated two or three feet.

Everyone also shouted out: "Li Yue."

Xiao Ju shouted loudly: "You must hold on! Don't die!"

In fact, everyone knew that under the full force attack of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, Gu Liyue's chance of survival was almost zero. The life of a cultivator was so fragile that a weakling could be killed in an instant in front of a strong one.

Su He felt even more guilty. It was all because of him. He was the one who harmed Gu Liyue.

Huge waves rose on the sea surface and quickly spread in all directions like a tsunami.

The Haiyan was hit by a huge wave and tilted. The people on the boat could not stand steadily. If it were not for the barrier on the boat, the people on the deck would have been thrown into the sea.

The captain noticed something unusual and teleported to the mast, with spiritual power surging through his body. He waved his hand and the Petrel disappeared.

He looked at the source of the huge waves, which was exactly the direction the mermaid and the nine monks were heading. He thought of the nine monks, especially the girl with a bright appearance but a cold expression.

He sighed and thought, they probably can't escape!

At this time, the Mermaid King was thinking about tomorrow's affairs in the hall. Suddenly, the fluctuation of spiritual power made her sit up straight. Her face changed drastically and she teleported to where Gu Liyue and the others were.

The surrounding guards were also alarmed and rushed over here.

The clan leader stood where he was, looking in surprise at Gu Liyue who was hit by him. When the turbid sea water became clear again, her figure was revealed.

He originally thought that she would be killed by his attack, but who knew that she would stand there steadily and sneer at him.

The clan leader was shocked and checked her cultivation again. He was not wrong, but why?

She, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, was able to withstand the full force attack from a Spirit Transformation cultivator unharmed!

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Just when he couldn't figure it out, he thought again, since he had already started, he might as well go all the way.

He raised his hand and realized that he had used all his strength just now to ensure that there would be no mistakes. At this moment, the spiritual power in his body was almost exhausted.

Gu Liyue saw that he was about to attack again. She glanced around and found that the Mermaid King appeared. She immediately swam to her side.

She could feel that the armor on her body had lost its defensive function and could not withstand another attack.

I was secretly complaining that the armor I had exchanged for the marriage contract was now broken. I wondered if it could be repaired.

Fortunately, I saved my life anyway, so it was worth it.

Tears streamed down Xiao Ju's face. In a trance, he thought it was Gu Liyue's body floating towards the Mermaid King. He shouted, "Liyue, Liyue, please don't float away! How could you die?"

Gu Liyue: "..." What's with that look?!

Nie Hengzhou was frightened by Xiao Ju's roar and swam towards Gu Liyue.

While swimming, I thought: As expected, Gu Liyue still couldn't dodge the attack from the Spirit Transformation Stage?

The sadness in his heart spread wildly. He had no one to protect her. How could he not have noticed that the tribe leader had murderous intentions? He let her use her mere Foundation Establishment stage body to block this devastating move for everyone.

The others swam towards Gu Liyue, and only when they got to her side did they find that she was intact.

Several friends saw Gu Liyue alive.

Nie Hengzhou grabbed Gu Liyue's hand with trembling hands. Gu Liyue looked at him in surprise and found that his eyes were red and his expression was sad. She was shocked!

Gu Liyue wanted to break free from his hand, but he held it tightly and refused to let go, so she had no choice but to let him do it.

Wen Qinnuan said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Ju, your eyesight is not good. Liyue is obviously fine. It's so scary."

Su He almost collapsed. When he was sure that Gu Liyue was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Liyue didn't care about her friends. She turned to look at the clan leader and said to the Mermaid King, "King, the clan leader wants to kill us."

She knew that now only the Mermaid King could stop the patriarch from killing them, and they were still useful to the Mermaid King.

Ling Shi looked around and saw that it was indeed the clan leader's spiritual power. She looked at the clan leader.

The clan leader only then came back to his senses from the shock of not killing Gu Liyue. Due to the excessive consumption of spiritual energy, he felt very exhausted.

Ling Shi looked at the patriarch and found that he was listless and seemed to have aged many years. He felt sorry for him.

But I had to ask clearly: "Chief, why did you kill Miss Gu and the others?"

The clan leader knew that the king had arrived and that he had lost the opportunity and could no longer kill Gu Liyue and the others.

"Forget it, I was wrong. I won't kill them again."

Ling Shi said, "I won't allow any mermaid to hurt them."

Then he reiterated it in the language of the mermaids, and added another sentence.

Gu Liyue knew that Ling Shi still needed them to awaken the artifact, and he should be able to protect them until noon tomorrow.

But she still said, "Wang, you can ensure our safety. No matter whether the situation is successful or not, you must allow us to leave."
