Xiaoxiao.

When the three people with mosaic faces realized that their true identities had been discovered, they stopped hiding and immediately revealed their true forms.

On the far left is a golden pill with a faint purple stripe on it.

Wu Ren suddenly transformed into a know-it-all. He looked at the pill with disdain and said, "So you're the legendary Yueyang Tower Master who's on the third floor, right? All you've learned after all these years is to play the role of a ghost? The rest must be the other two masters, right? No wonder no one has ever seen your true faces, because you're not human at all."

I thought you would have made some progress over the years, but I didn't expect you to not even be able to stabilize at the first rank. Lu Chunyang spent countless rare and precious materials and three years to refine you.

All the pills that came out of the furnace at the same time as yours were grade three, yet you haven't even reached grade one. So many years have passed, and you're still lingering near grade one. It's truly pathetic and laughable.

Upon hearing this, Danling flew into a rage and said, "Even if I am of no rank, I am more than capable of dealing with you."

Wu Ren did not argue, but instead looked at the medicine hoe in the middle and the jade cup on the right.

The hoe was ancient in design, radiating a red glow. Most striking was the faint, chilling light emanating from its tip, which remained motionless. The space around it shattered into nothingness; its sharpness was so potent that even Kuang Zheng and his companions felt threatened. This was the hoe's spirit. Like the pill spirit, it was indistinct, yet it was clearly a condensed version of the hoe.

It was about the height of a hand, floating in the fluorescent light emitted by the hoe.

That jade cup was no ordinary thing either. The pale mist emanating from it was the thickest, and what made it even more daunting was that the pale mist would occasionally ripple outwards with jade-colored waves.

The ripples spread at irregular intervals, but each pulsation instantly cleaves everything it touches.

The cut lines are so fine that they are almost imperceptible. Even though they have penetrated through, there is still no trace visible on the surface.

The Zhanling appeared more substantial than the Danling and Chuling, but its clarity was limited; both were faint, ethereal shadows.

Although the three spirits had a strong artifact-like feel, after transforming into human form, their facial features were finally barely discernible.

At this moment, they were all staring angrily at Kuang Zheng and the others. As they continued to gather their strength, the aura emanating from the three spirits grew stronger and stronger.

In the blink of an eye, he had already far surpassed the leaders of the ten major sects.

No wonder they dared to ignore Kuang Zheng's warnings; they were fearless because they had nothing to lose.

As the aura they emitted grew stronger, the expressions on Kuang Zheng and the others gradually became serious.

They sensed a strong spiritual energy emanating from the three spirits, an energy that was almost materializing.

They had never encountered such intense spiritual energy before.

Especially that spirit lamp, whose spiritual energy was even stronger than theirs.

Seeing their reactions, Danling laughed triumphantly, "Haha... Scared now? Too bad it's too late! Weren't you so arrogant before? Saying you gave us seven days to commit suicide. We're right here, come and get us if you dare!! Haha..." Her demeanor was extremely arrogant.

Kuang Zheng didn't engage in a verbal battle with them, but instead gave Ying Yue a look.

The latter immediately understood and quickly retreated with his parents.

But this couldn't escape Danling's eyes. It cried out, "You think you can run away? Heh... How naive!"

As soon as Danling finished speaking, a green light suddenly surged from Zhanling's body, instantly enveloping everyone.

Yueyang Tower was instantly isolated by a thin layer of spiritual energy. This thin layer was closely connected to the spirit of the lamp, just like its clone.

Kuang Zheng and the others, along with the three spirits, were all isolated from the outside world by this thin layer of spiritual energy, which formed a small world within it.

Zhanling is its master, and no one can leave quietly without its permission.

Danling was very satisfied with the result. He said smugly, "Didn't you want us to die? Did you really think that defeating those trash from the Ten Great Sects made you invincible?"

"It seems I underestimated the heroes of the world. I suppose the Ten Great Sects are just your puppets?" Kuang Zheng replied, while secretly examining the spiritual energy membrane as he answered.

Danling scoffed, "Ha! They're such a bunch of worthless scoundrels, they wouldn't even bother running errands for me."

"Isn't that an exaggeration? If they weren't your people, how could they suddenly unite against us at Broken Blade Peak?" Kuang Zheng replied. After investigating, he found nothing, so he channeled his spiritual energy into his palm and pressed it against the spiritual energy membrane to examine it more closely.

"People are all foolish and greedy. I only told them that we would no longer participate in the struggle for the Vermilion Fruit after the deed was done. They thought that as long as you were eliminated, the Vermilion Fruit would be theirs. How laughable and pathetic. Heh..." Danling mocked.

"So this isn't the first time you've collaborated?" Kuang Zheng grasped the key point.

Danling readily admitted, "It seems you're not so stupid after all. Do you know why Zhang Sanfeng didn't leave behind any legacy?"

Upon hearing this, Kuang Zheng said, "Is this also the result of your secret collusion? Impossible! Zhang Sanfeng is a 'Land Immortal.' You may be powerful, but you can't possibly threaten him, can you?"

Danling said, "We really can't do anything to him, but he wouldn't dare to do anything to us either! Because I said that if anyone dares to push us too far, we'll self-destruct. At that time, half of the Great Qin Empire will be buried with us."

That old man is so pedantic! He actually let us go for the sake of his so-called "common people." It's laughable.

Kuang Zheng said, "He couldn't bear to see people suffer; he truly cared for the common people. He was a great man, unlike you heartless beasts!"

Danling roared, "Who do you think you are, daring to speak to me like that! You deserve to die!"

Wu Ren said from the side, "I'm afraid the truth of the matter is not like that. Even if he was threatened by you for a while, he couldn't be coerced by you forever, could he? In the eyes of a terrestrial immortal, you are nothing but ants. How could he be coerced by you forever?"

Ying Yue also said, "That's right. How could three mere artifact spirits, who are far from taking human form, possibly threaten a terrestrial immortal? There must be more to this story."

Danling laughed, "Haha... It's alright to tell you, that old Taoist priest is indeed powerful, we are no match for him at all. But what use is power if there is a traitor in the family?"

Danling smiled smugly, showing no remorse for her actions; on the contrary, she was extremely proud.

It was as if all of this was the thing it was most proud of in its life; its cold-bloodedness, ruthlessness, and cruelty were fully displayed in this moment.
