Immortals of the Mortal World Gather at the Inn!

"I feel so dizzy and nauseous—"

Li Daoxuan slowly stood up from the ground, and immediately felt dizzy and nauseous.

However, with the mask on, Li Daoxuan dared not vomit. If he did, he would never wear it again, even if he washed it clean!

"Buzz—"

The sound of a sword ringing out rang out, and a snow-white longsword was pressed against Li Daoxuan's neck!

"Who are you? I've never seen you before!"

A cold voice sounded behind Li Daoxuan.

"Xiao Yu—"

Sensing the familiar sword intent and hearing the familiar voice, Li Daoxuan immediately recognized the newcomer as Xiao Yu, the Holy Son of the Sword Sect!

Li Daoxuan deflected the sword's edge with his fingers and said hoarsely, "Sword Sect Holy Son, to be honest, I have some dealings with your junior uncle!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu not only did not remove the Flying Snow Sword, but his eyes became even sharper, filled with killing intent!

Li Daoxuan immediately understood that Xiao Yu had misunderstood.

"This kid thinks I'm his enemy, so he wants to get rid of me beforehand!"

Li Daoxuan couldn't help but laugh, but he still explained with a smile, "It seems the Holy Son has misunderstood the relationship between Brother Daoxuan and me!"

Seeing that Xiao Yu still hadn't given up his killing intent, Li Daoxuan was genuinely afraid that the kid would directly attack him.

After all, the other party was a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage, while he was only at the Nascent Soul stage. If the other party made a move, his mystery would be exposed.

If things get any worse, their true identities will be exposed, and Jubaoge will likely come into the sight of those important figures.

At this time, Jubaoge was still under the protection of the Qin Emperor in the Great Qin Dynasty, and those old guys who didn't want to fight with humans would hardly make a move.

If others were to find out that I am the new head of the Treasure Pavilion and that the origin of the Treasure Pavilion is still with me, then the Treasure Pavilion could be said to be dead in name only, truly disappearing into the annals of history.

Li Daoxuan said to Xiao Yu, "Holy Son, please don't misunderstand. Daoxuan and I are brothers who have gone through life and death together!"

After Li Daoxuan finished speaking, Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, and finally put down the Flying Snow Sword.

"May I ask how you are addressed?"

Xiao Yu took the initiative to ask a question.

Li Daoxuan had no intention of revealing his true identity, and said, "I am the current head of the Jubaoge Pavilion. You may call me Head Li."

Xiao Yu then nodded.

Although I haven't heard of it, the world is vast, and it's perfectly normal for me not to know about some minor sects or factions.

Li Daoxuan looked at Xiao Yu and realized that the other party had not raised any questions. He immediately understood that the other party regarded Jubaoge as a minor sect.

However, Li Daoxuan did not object, and instead invited Xiao Yu, "Holy Son, why don't we travel together!"

Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay!"

He needed to determine whether the other party was an enemy or a friend.

Li Daoxuan naturally guessed Xiao Yu's little scheme, but he didn't say anything.

"Senior, senior!"

Li Daoxuan called out to the old doctor in his heart.

However, no matter how you call out to the other party, there is no response.

"Could it be that this secret realm can even suppress quasi-saint level experts?!"

The more this was the case, the more Li Daoxuan valued this secret realm!

"Gather treasure, investigate!"

This is the ability that Li Daoxuan discovered during the initial refining of the Treasure Pavilion.

Its function is to detect treasures within a ten-mile radius, mainly because Li Daoxuan was still too weak at this time.

Li Daoxuan closed his eyes and carefully sensed the treasures around him.

"1500 meters east!"

Li Daoxuan suddenly opened his eyes, looked eastward, and took the lead.

Xiao Yu looked in the direction Li Daoxuan had left, thought for a moment, and then followed him.

Along the way, Li Daoxuan chatted with Xiao Yu intermittently.

However, Xiao Yu did not reply at all, remaining vigilant.

Li Daoxuan was also speechless.

Xiao Yu is good at everything, except he's too stubborn.

The two were not moving fast, but the distance between them was not far either.

"This is it!"

Li Daoxuan looked at the huge rock in front of him and said to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu looked at the surrounding group of giant rocks, but no matter how he looked at them, he couldn't see anything wrong with them.

Xiao Yu looked at Li Daoxuan, who was watching him without moving, and asked, "Sect Leader Li, what does this mean?"

Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, looked around for a long time, and finally replied, saying, "I don't need the treasures inside; breaking the boulder will suffice."

Xiao Yu looked at Li Daoxuan warily and said, "Sect Master Li, what does this mean?"

Li Daoxuan was utterly speechless and could only say, "Didn't you see clearly? There's a line of words carved on this boulder."

Xiao Yu looked in the direction Li Daoxuan pointed.

Sure enough, there was a line of small characters carved on the boulder.

[This can be broken by cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending stage; if they exceed this stage, both the treasure and the boulder will be destroyed; if their level is too low, the boulder cannot be broken!]

"You and I both sealed our cultivation levels, dropping to the Integration Stage. Isn't this inappropriate, Pavilion Master Li?"

Clearly, Xiao Yu mistook Li Daoxuan for a Tribulation Transcending stage cultivator who, like himself, had sealed his cultivation level.

Li Daoxuan chuckled hoarsely, without refuting, and said, "I have a magic artifact that can temporarily shield me from the suppression of this secret realm, but only for a maximum of two breaths, and I cannot move during this time."

Li Daoxuan wasn't entirely lying; he did indeed possess a magical artifact that could shield the Mountain and River Secret Realm. However, he could move around while activating the artifact, though he simply couldn't break the boulder.

Xiao Yu nodded; he had also heard of such magical artifacts. He said to Li Daoxuan, "Alright then, I hope Pavilion Master Li will keep his promise!"

Xiao Yu's promise to keep was the one Li Daoxuan had previously promised, that the treasure would belong to him.

Li Daoxuan's name is acceptable, since given Xiao Yu's personality, he wouldn't use the treasure himself after obtaining it, but would instead take it back to the sect.

"Then let's begin, Pavilion Master Li."

Xiao Yu drew his Flying Snow sword and looked at Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan nodded and summoned the Five Elements Array Flags from within his body.

"Charge!"

Li Daoxuan made a hand seal, and the Five Elements Array Flags flew in five directions, enveloping the boulder and Xiao Yu.

"Holy Son, once I activate the formation, quickly shatter the boulder. Remember, only one strike!"

Xiao Yu nodded, and his body also exuded an aura that surpassed the Integration Stage.

Thunderclouds slowly gathered in the pale blue sky, as if they would strike Xiao Yu down if he dared to unleash them.

"The Five Elements - Concealment"

Instantly, the five flags began to activate, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to surge towards them rapidly.

"Let's do it!"

Li Daoxuan's face was deathly pale; he was clearly on the verge of collapse.

Xiao Yu moved swiftly, unleashing his strongest sword strike of the Tribulation Transcending stage towards the boulder.

"boom--"

The boulder shattered instantly, but the sword energy remained undiminished and flew backward.

"clang--"

The sword energy shattered abruptly upon striking the barrier formed by the Five Elements Array Flags.

At the same time, the barrier shattered, and the Five Elements Array Flags returned to Li Daoxuan's body.

"Phew, thankfully we managed to break through!"

Li Daoxuan and Xiao Yu both looked ahead.

A green light appeared...
