Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

Chapter 191 [Flowing Gold Fire Bell] [Scattering Beans into Soldiers]

"Dan Yuanzi!"

Qiu Zhen was slightly startled.

A master suddenly appeared several miles away, addressing the owner of the mountain villa as "Dan Yuanzi."

This name was somewhat familiar.

He remembered that An Huayu was ambushed in Guangling City some time ago and almost died at the hands of a demon. According to his master, the mastermind behind the scenes was suspected to be an old enemy, "Dan Yuanzi."

He didn't know if the "Dan Yuanzi" in front of him was the same person as the "Dan Yuanzi" his master An Jishi spoke of.

According to his master, "Dan Yuanzi's" cultivation was at the [Qi Transformation Wandering Spirit] Great Perfection realm, similar to Yu Chanzi's.

But the one before him...

Qiu Zhen's heart tightened.

He didn't dare to release his divine sense, but from the brief glimpse he caught when the two of them released their auras, he faintly perceived the other party's strength, which far surpassed Yu Chanzi's.

Both of them were Nascent Soul old monsters!

Qiu Zhen was secretly shocked.

He never expected to encounter Nascent Soul old monsters, who were usually like elusive dragons in the cultivation world.

And he saw two at once.

"Fortunately, it's just my Yin Spirit traveling, and I have the [Red Emperor Golden Pill] transformation technique. Otherwise, I would definitely have exposed myself and met with disaster."

Qiu Zhen secretly rejoiced.

Just as he was surprised, earth-shattering changes took place in the surrounding mountains and fields.

In the distant vast forest, eight golden pillars of light soared into the sky, piercing the clouds.

Immediately afterward, each golden pillar of light activated a mysterious light, connecting with each other, forming a closed loop in an instant, constantly evolving.

Heaven, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Mountain, Lake, Water, Fire...

"Innate Eight Trigrams!"

Qiu Zhen was greatly shocked by the sight of the grand formation before him.

Once the formation was activated, it enveloped an area of several miles, resembling a legendary large-scale formation with unparalleled power, enough to trap and kill great demons and Nascent Soul old monsters.

And he was also trapped within the formation, unable to escape.

Of course, the target of this large-scale formation was not Qiu Zhen, but the Nascent Soul old monster several miles away.

A black light flew out from the mountain villa, transforming into an old Daoist wearing a yellow Eight Trigrams robe, with disheveled hair and a dirty face, unkempt and slovenly. His turbid eyes looked at the blue-robed old Daoist in the distance:

"Bi You Daoist, so it's you. Greetings, greetings. For the esteemed Elder of the Myriad Immortals Alliance to grace my humble abode with your presence, I apologize for the poor hospitality. Please forgive me, fellow Daoist!"

"Your formation is not simple, and there is no lack of hospitality."

Bi You Daoist looked around the formation, frowning slightly:

"Fellow Daoist has good methods and a good hand. Once your [Innate Eight Trigrams Formation] is deployed, it consumes countless resources. Once a move is made, there's no turning back. If I hadn't come, your painstaking [Chessboard Magic Tool] would have gone to waste, resulting in a significant loss."

After saying that, the expression on Bi You Daoist's face became obviously more solemn:

"It's been many years, and not only have you reached the [Refining Qi into Spirit] realm, but your deduction and calculation skills have also improved by leaps and bounds. You were even able to predict my visit today."

"Heh heh ~"

Dan Yuanzi sneered:

"You used a secret technique to spy on me. If I were still unaware, wouldn't I have been wasting my time all these years?"

"Used a secret technique to spy on you?"

Bi You Daoist looked strange:

"I didn't spy on you."

"You didn't spy on me today?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Yuanzi carefully examined Bi You Daoist. Seeing the other party's strange expression, which didn't seem fake, he was also slightly surprised.

If it wasn't Bi You Daoist spying, could it be that the recent prying in the dark was someone else?

Or was his premonition wrong?

Dan Yuanzi was secretly shocked.

On the other side, when Bi You Daoist saw Dan Yuanzi frowning and pondering, he felt even more depressed.

He really didn't use a secret technique to spy.

He was afraid of alarming the snake.

The clues he found to this place had nothing to do with "magic powers."

Beforehand, in order not to disturb Dan Yuanzi, he didn't even do the most basic divination of good or bad luck, just to "catch him off guard" and prevent Dan Yuanzi from having a premonition.

Who would have thought...

By coincidence, someone was secretly casting a spell to spy on Dan Yuanzi today, startling him.

"Which damned bastard ruined this old Daoist's plan!"

Bi You Daoist now understood that he had inadvertently blocked a knife for someone and taken the blame, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

However, his composure was extraordinary, and the emotions of anger and depression flashed by and quickly cleared his mind.

The opportunity was fleeting.

Now, even if there were accidents, there was no turning back.

Dan Yuanzi wouldn't easily let him go after setting up the formation, and he didn't want to leave crestfallen.

If he let Dan Yuanzi go this time, it would be extremely difficult to find him next time.

Even, given the other party some time, they would surely become a force to be reckoned with.

With this thought, Bi You Daoist's eyes fell on Dan Yuanzi:

"Fellow Daoist Dan Yuanzi, as the saying goes, it's better to share joy than to enjoy it alone. The Dragon Lord's legacy is a treasure shared by cultivators like us. What virtue or ability do you have to occupy it alone? Take it out and let cultivators like us study it together, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Heh heh ~"

Dan Yuanzi sneered, also cutting off the distracting thoughts in his mind.

No matter who the person who spied on him with secret techniques was, it was no longer important.

Bi You Daoist had indeed come with ill intentions.

"Fellow Daoist Bi You, how could this old Daoist have any Dragon Lord's legacy? You must have misunderstood."

"I will not be mistaken."

Bi You Daoist's tone was firm:

"Before the Chonglou Merchant Guild's Manager Liang's incident, he had contact with your disciples, asking for advice on alchemy. Your disciples valued the power of his merchant guild and brought him into the outer sect to be dispatched and driven. It's just that I never thought Liang Wei would possess the Dragon Lord's Pill Book."

"Two days ago, Liang Wei fell into the hands of the imperial court. He didn't have the Dragon Lord's Pill Book on him. As far as I know, Liang Wei passed the Pill Book to his son and sent him out of Qingmu early. It's just that his son lost his mind and actually took the [Dragon Lord's Pill Book] to you, asking you to save his father..."

Speaking of this, Bi You Daoist shook his head:

"What a filial piety, but too foolish and muddle-headed, unable to recognize people clearly, unable to see the situation. With your temperament, Dan Yuanzi, how could you take action!"

Dan Yuanzi saw the other party speaking eloquently and was silent for a moment:

"So that kid's family fell into your hands."

Having said that, Dan Yuanzi shook his head, looking helpless:

"Let's not mince words, it's true that there was such a thing, but the Dragon Lord's Pill Book doesn't have the so-called [Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill], just some immortal pill recipes, alchemy secrets, and outer pill immortal formulas. Although they are precious and rare, you and I don't need to fight over them!"

"Whether there is a [Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill] or not is not something you can just say. Words are not enough."

Bi You Daoist's eyes were deep:

"Fellow Daoist Dan Yuanzi, since there is no [Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill], not the only immortal fruit in the world, why not take out the [Pill Book] for a look and let me appraise it? The current cultivation world is withering, and it is a great taboo to cherish one's broom. It should be taken out and shared."

"Heh heh, you have a good plan."

Dan Yuanzi sneered. If he really showed the Pill Book to the other party today, the other party would definitely take an inch after gaining a foot.

"Do you think this old Daoist is easy to bully? Don't think that just because you broke through earlier than me, you can be sure to defeat me. Right now, you are in my formation. Whether you win or lose depends on me, not you!"

After saying that, Dan Yuanzi flicked his sleeves, and golden light bloomed.

Immediately afterward, the surrounding world changed drastically.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh ~"

The wind howled and the clouds rolled.

Suddenly, hundreds of armored soldiers emerged from the clouds, arranged in eight divisions, corresponding to the power of the eight trigrams: "Heaven, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Mountain, Lake, Water, Fire."

Hundreds upon thousands of soldiers stood tall in the clouds, enacting the power of the innate Eight Trigrams, their aura magnificent, faintly resembling celestial soldiers and generals besieging demons and monsters, their imposing presence giving people an unparalleled sense of oppression.

"What a [Scattering Beans into Soldiers], what an innate Eight Trigrams Divine Soldier Grand Formation!"

Seeing his opponent lose his temper, Bi You Daoist was not afraid at all, and took out an object similar to a bell from his waist.

The ordinary black copper bell was engraved with complex inscriptions, and at first glance, it was unremarkable.

However, the moment Bi You Daoist sacrificed this object, the copper bell underwent earth-shaking changes.

Colorful lights shone brilliantly, crisscrossing in all directions.

Golden-red light filled the void, as if a small sun was hanging in the sky, bursting out with unparalleled brilliance.

"[Gleaming Gold Fire Bell]!"

Qiu Zhen, who was secretly watching, recognized this magic weapon when he saw this scene, and was slightly shocked.

This thing is none other than the famous Taoist artifact—[Gleaming Gold Fire Bell].

It is said that the Gleaming Gold Fire Bell symbolizes the "essence of the nine stars", born before the nine heavens, forming patterns by gathering Qi, its light bright and radiant, illuminating all directions, and it is a first-class fire magic method of the Taoist school.

By refining the magic weapon [Gleaming Gold Fire Bell] with this method, one can cultivate extremely powerful fire magic powers.

"Boom!"

After a thunderous sound.

In the void, five clusters of candlelight appeared out of thin air.

Although they were just clusters of turbid light, they illuminated all directions.

The originally pitch-black night turned into day in an instant after the five clusters of candlelight appeared in the east, south, west, north, and center.

"Night Illuminating Divine Candles!"

Qiu Zhen recalled the descriptions he had seen in the Taoist scriptures, and vaguely understood:

"I didn't expect that someone would actually refine this magical power."

After the divine candles illuminated the night sky, the five divine bells began to urge bursts of flames.

The flames were extraordinary, appearing purple, exuding the scorching heat of burning everything.

This fire is no ordinary fire, but the [Violet Radiance Flame Light], refined by collecting and refining the "essence of the nine stars", its light bright and radiant, a divine fire illuminating all directions.

The five divine bells spewed out endless [Violet Radiance Flame Light], and in an instant, they turned into fire crows, shooting towards the "celestial soldiers and generals" in all directions.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"

The five divine bells urged ten thousand feet of flame light, and thousands upon thousands of fire crows were born out of thin air.

In the time it takes to breathe a few times, the surrounding area of several miles instantly turned into a sea of fire, burning the "celestial soldiers and generals" in the clouds.

In one face-to-face encounter, many celestial soldiers and generals were covered in flames, turning into fire men.

The celestial soldiers and generals were naturally not to be outdone.

This place was originally Dan Yuanzi's home ground, and he had arranged formations in advance, so naturally he would not be easily defeated.

After a moment of panic, Dan Yuanzi formed a hand seal, mobilized the formation, and used his divine sense to command his "celestial soldiers and generals" to arrange their troops.

In the next moment, the situation of heaven and earth changed drastically.

The original dense jungle disappeared, replaced by a vast expanse of watery land.

In the high sky of clouds and mist, the celestial soldiers and generals seemed to have transformed into "celestial river guards". Under the arrangement of their troops, the gate of the celestial river was opened, and rolling torrents of water fell from the sky from the clouds, extinguishing the fire crows that were rampaging everywhere.

"Whirr whirr whirr ~"

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle ~"

For a time, the two people's battle became extremely fierce.

Bi You Daoist sacrificed his natal magic weapon [Gleaming Gold Fire Bell], using divine candles to illuminate the night, urging the magical power of [Violet Radiance Flame Light], and evolving into fire crows all over the sky, burning heaven and earth.

On the other side, Dan Yuanzi was not willing to be outdone, and displayed the magical power of [Scattering Beans into Soldiers] with a backhand, operating the [Innate Eight Trigrams Grand Formation], deducing the power of the eight phenomena, evolving a watery world, and suppressing the fire crows all over the sky.

The two people's battle can be described as tit-for-tat.

The scale of the commotion was so great that it affected an area of several miles.

The surrounding mountains, rivers, and trees were probably reduced to ashes, leaving a scene of devastation. The fierce beasts and small demons within a few miles around suffered collateral damage, losing their lives and suffering countless casualties.

Qiu Zhen, transformed into a flying bird, stood outside the mountain villa, watching this great battle, and was secretly shocked.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he had personally watched the battle of "Nascent Soul Old Monsters", and the first time he had seen such a big scene. He secretly called it enjoyable in his heart. While gaining a lot of knowledge, he couldn't help but feel fortunate.

The battle scenes of "Nascent Soul Old Monsters" were grand, and even the aftermath had great power.

Being in it was dangerous.

The only thing he was thankful for was that at the beginning, his Yin spirit transformed into a flying bird and approached the mountain villa without being discovered.

The place where he was now was close to the "mountain villa", which was the core area of the grand formation. It was not in the trapped formation or the killing formation, but rather a place protected by the grand formation. He would not suffer collateral damage.

Otherwise, although he would not lose his life like the beasts and small demons within a few miles around, he would definitely not be able to hide his figure.

How powerful were the divine senses of the two great Nascent Soul Old Monsters fighting? If he moved even slightly, they would probably be able to sense it.

"How dangerous, how dangerous!"

Qiu Zhen secretly rejoiced in his heart.

However, he was not flustered at all from beginning to end.

He comprehended [Vacuum Wonderful Existence], his Nascent Soul was sitting in the origin, and even if his Yin spirit was scattered, he would not die, so he was not worried about his life being in danger.

At this moment, he responded to all changes with constancy, and continued to watch the two people's battle with great interest, accumulating battle experience.

He had no bottleneck in the [Driving Qi Wandering Spirit] realm, and he would soon be able to break through naturally, ascending to the realm of "Heaven and Man Induction", and even "Heaven and Man Unity".

Being in "Seeking Truth Valley", he was considered a quasi "Nascent Soul Old Monster".

With half a foot into the "Old Monster" level, he urgently needed the fighting experience of strong people at the level of "Nascent Soul Old Monsters" and "Martial Arts Grandmasters".

Watching the two people's battle at this moment was also a valuable opportunity for him.

"At the [Refining Qi Transforming Spirit] level, the most crucial thing is probably the four words [Heaven and Man Unity]. The small world within the body communicates with the big world outside the body. Whoever has a deep understanding of [Heaven and Man Unity] will have superior magical powers."

After observing for a while, Qiu Zhen vaguely understood.

He could see that Dan Yuanzi's cultivation was not as advanced as this "Bi You Daoist".

However, Dan Yuanzi had set up a grand formation in advance, occupying the geographical advantage, and was not at a disadvantage either.

Just like how he could awaken the "Nascent Soul Dharma Body" by borrowing the mountain god power of "Seeking Truth Valley" and exert the power of a "Martial Arts Grandmaster" or "Nascent Soul Old Monster", they all borrowed "leverage" to be able to pry the power of heaven and earth and display their magical powers.

"Boom!"

Suddenly.

A loud booming sound.

Qiu Zhen, who was in the midst of enlightenment, was immediately shocked. When he fixed his eyes, he saw a ten thousand feet of light erupting from the sky.

In the void, a piece of distortion.

The sky seemed to have turned into a painting, being kneaded and twisted into a ball.

"Good fellow, shattering the void, the two people's battle, the clash of water and fire actually shattered the void!"

Qiu Zhen exclaimed in his heart.

However, what surprised him even more was that the aura of Dan Yuanzi and Bi You Daoist was gone.

"The two of them were sucked into the void?"

Qiu Zhen was secretly delighted.

There was hope.

However, as soon as this thought came out, he quickly extinguished it, turned his head, and his gaze fell on the mountain villa.

Good opportunity!
