320, Emperor's Pavilion Goes Out to Hunt the World
…
…
Return to Demon Island.
Xu Xing closed the pawnshop and formation shop, came to the cave he rented, and began to retreat.
During this retreat, he planned to break through the middle stage of Yuanying and enter the late stage of Yuanying.
With his accumulation, there is no bottleneck before he breaks through to the realm of Yuanshen.
It was only in order to consolidate the foundation that he delayed the breakthrough time.
One year.
Two years.
Several years passed quickly,
In the eighth year, a stream of spiritual pressure came out of the cave from the quiet room and landed hundreds of miles around the cave.
The spiritual energy vortex hanging upside down outside the cave appeared, like a whale swallowing, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy everywhere.
"Another fellow Taoist has broken through the realm."
After sensing this spiritual pressure, the human monks on Demon Island extended their spiritual consciousness and were filled with emotion.
"Is it...him?"
When Fairy Caiyun saw this scene, she was a little stunned.
The first time she met Xu Xing, Xu Xing was just a Taoist monk from a small sect who came to the Alchemy Sect to exchange for Ningying spiritual items.
Unexpectedly, a hundred years later, Xu Xing was born one step ahead of her.
Now in Wushanfang City, after hundreds of years of accumulation, Xu Xing's cultivation has reached the late Nascent Soul stage.
And she was still just the Dao Dan True Monarch at the moment, and she was still far away from the Nascent Soul realm.
"Perhaps in my lifetime, I can still see him become the Holy Lord of Yuanshen..."
Fairy Caiyun had this absurd idea in her mind.
Although geniuses in the world of cultivating immortals are rare, if we take ten thousand years as a span, they are countless.
At Xu Xing's age, there are at least dozens of geniuses who have reached the late Nascent Soul stage.
However, there are no exceptions among these geniuses, and only a few of them have become gods and entered the realm of the soul.
"I wonder if he is willing to be a worshiper of our Alchemy Sect. If he refuses, the Tianyi Sect will not let him go free."
Fairy Caiyun raised her eyebrows.
Long before the secret realm of Louhai was opened, her master had admired Xu Xing, but later, due to the Tianyi Sect, she gave up the idea of letting Xu Xing enter the Danding Sect.
But these days are different.
Xu Xing, who has become a late Nascent Soul and is also a fourth-level formation mage, is qualified to let the Danding Sect take the risk of offending the Tianyi Sect and give Xu Xing a hand.
…
…
A few days later.
Xu Xingjiang stabilized his realm, walked out of the cave, and opened a business in Wushanfang City again.
"In a few decades, Wushanfang City will gradually become deserted, and the demon clan will no longer be able to protect the city and maintain order..."
"At that time, what should you do, Shopkeeper Chang?"
In the backyard of the pawn shop, Fairy Caiyun placed the congratulatory gift on the table, and then said this straight to the point.
At that time, the reason why Li Taiyue dared to let go of his "big words" was that he was sure that Xu Xing would not hide in Wushanfang City for the rest of his life.
Either enter the secret realm, look for opportunities, go one step further and fight him.
Either leave the demon island, be found by Tianyi Sect, and be killed by him.
Compared to the second option, the first option may have a better way to survive.
"What does Fairy Caiyun mean?"
Xu Xing was surprised and asked.
Whether it was Tian Yizong or Li Taiyue, he didn't take it seriously, but these things could not be revealed.
"Fellow Daoist Chang is less than a thousand years old now, and he still has more than fifteen hundred years left. He dares to attack the realm of Yuanshen before half his age..."
"Monks like Taoist friend Ruchang are called soul seeds in all major sects."
Fairy Caiyun pondered for a moment and said.
"We, the Aland Cauldron Sect, plan to recruit Shopkeeper Chang to become a worshiper of our sect, so that we can break through the realm with peace of mind!"
She spoke more bluntly.
It is said that it is impossible to directly confront Tianyi Sect, and she will not give up this excuse easily.
"The Danding sect worships?"
Xu Xing sipped a cup of tea and looked up at Fairy Caiyun standing in the court.
Fairy Caiyun was just like when he first met, wearing a crimson fairy skirt, with a silver hairpin of plum blossoms inserted diagonally in her flying fairy bun, and her face was beautiful and refined.
"Everything has a price. Chang joined the Alchemy Sect and became a worshipper. This does not mean that the Alchemy Sect will fully train me to break through to the Yuanshen realm..."
"As for Li Taiyue, Chang has other means to deal with him. Let's not let the Danding Sect worry about this matter."
Xu Xing slightly raised his eyebrows and said.
He didn't think that the Danding Sect was wooing him to do charity.
Basically, the monks who joined the sect halfway were not trained by the senior sect.
More often than not, they are regarded as cannon fodder.
"My master has not stated this clearly, but it should not cause Fellow Daoist Chang to suffer too much."
Fairy Caiyun thought for a moment and replied.
"In this case... Chang will decline your kindness."
Hearing this, Xu Xing shook his head, picked up the pot and poured a cup of tea for Fairy Caiyun, and brought it to Fairy Caiyun using his skills.
at this time.
There is a spiritual message on his Emperor's Pavilion token, sent by the "Stone Monkey" elder, asking him to return to the Liang Kingdom Branch Pavilion as soon as possible.
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be a sign that Dizi Pavilion will massacre all Taoist sects in Southern Yanzhou.
This time point, although late, has arrived.
By then, the Danding Sect would not be able to protect itself, so why should he take a ride on this boat that could capsize at any time.
"Junior, please take your leave."
Seeing this scene, Fairy Caiyun shook her head and left the courtyard.
Every monk has his or her own destiny. She said this, but Xu Xing didn't listen, and she had no choice.
Good words can't persuade a damn ghost.
"I am also lost in the lake. I really think that Chang Kun has the potential to reach the Yuan Shen realm..."
She walked out of Tiande Pawnshop and thought silently in the streets of Fangshi.
She is not optimistic about Xu Xing's future at the moment.
Perhaps it has the ability to resolve the threats from Li Taiyue and Tianyi Sect.
However, what happened afterwards?
Continue to waste time in the Nascent Soul Realm?
…
…
After Fairy Caiyun leaves.
Xu Xing packed his bags and prepared to leave Wushanfang City and Demon Island.
As for the "Ancestral Dragon's Slaughter" in the Louhai Secret Realm, he planned to give up, at least not to get it from this realm.
The remains of the Dragon Ancestor were of no help to his current state.
Once you get it, it's just a hot potato.
"After the Emperor Zi Pavilion assassinates these Yuanshen and Yuanying monks, there will be no one to guard the Louhai Secret Realm. This will be my opportunity."
"The Dragon Ancestor's legacy may allow me to obtain the second way to enter the upper world besides joining the Emperor's Pavilion."
Xu Xing thought to himself.
If the second destiny of the Nascent Soul Realm is deduced, his cultivation at this moment has already reached the Yuanshen Realm.
In the derivation of fate, in the 448th year of Tiande, he obtained the Yuan Shen Dan from Dizi Pavilion, broke through in the Seven Star Sect Cave, and became the Yuan Shenjun...
However, in the real world, he did not intend to take this trick and swallow the Yuanshen Pill rashly. Instead, he planned to lay a solid foundation to break the shackles of Yuanying and break through to the Yuanshen realm.
One step at a time.
This is also the reason why he delayed until now to break through to the late stage of Nascent Soul, and did not rush forward without greed for success.
He didn't dare to gamble on whether the Yuanshen Pill given to him by Dizi Pavilion was harmful.
After all, in the real world, he only has one life.
…
…
A few days later.
On the streets of Wushanfang City, there was an ordinary-looking young man in Taoist robes. He left Tiande Pawnshop and blended into the crowd.
This young man in Taoist robes did not attract the attention of any monk, including the Tianyi Sect monk who was watching the sentry.
"The human skin mask of Emperor Zi Pavilion is really a weapon of disguise. Even Tianyi Sect, a primordial spirit-level force, cannot detect anything."
Xu Xing stood on the clouds of Hanhai Kingdom, touched the thin human skin mask on his face, and his eyes flickered a few times.
Hanhai Kingdom and Demon Island face each other across the sea. He left Demon Island and came to Hanhai Kingdom without being noticed by anyone.
After wearing the human skin mask of Emperor Zi Pavilion, it can not only hide the monk's cultivation level, but also change the monk's breath, figure and appearance.
"Go to Heishanfang City in Liang State first, and report on the matter of Tianyi Sect later."
Xu Xing flicked his sleeves and robe, turning into a ray of light and disappearing into the sky.
other side.
Wushanfang City on Demon Island.
On the fifth day after Xu Xing left Tiande's pawnshop, the monk who was watching the sentry noticed something unusual.
In the pawn shop, all the spiritual objects of the third level and above were completely gone, leaving only some inferior items to hold up the scene.
Seeing this, how could they not know that this was a sign that Xu Xing was leaving with the money.
"waste!"
"You can even stare at a living person."
In the Kingdom of Chu, in the Tianyi Sect's Cave, Li Taiyue crushed the transmission talisman that flew in front of him, and a few cold gleams flashed in his eyes.
"Husband, then Chang Kun..."
Seeing this scene, Daojun Jiang Yue stepped forward and asked cautiously.
"A monk who can escape cannot escape from the temple. The Wuliang Sect of the North Vietnam Kingdom is still there. When my husband comes out of seclusion and proves that the Nascent Soul has been repaired, we will raise an army to conquer the Wuliang Sect!"
Li Taiyue grabbed Daojun Jiang Yue's shoulders with his big hands, tore the skirt of this beautiful female cultivator, and made a promise while letting go of his desire.
Nascent Soul Dao Lords from Tianyi Sect are not rare. Unlike medium-sized sects, Yuanying monks can be called ancestors and hold power.
Only when he reaches the level of Nascent Soul Overhaul, he is qualified to mobilize Tianyi Sect monks and resources to conquer a sect.
"Yes, I know..."
Daojun Jiang Yue held back the pain, with tears in his almond eyes, and nodded.
…
…
soon.
Xu Xing went to Heishanfang City, where the Dizi Pavilion branch was located, and met Yan Luanqing, who had arrived in advance.
Xu Xing selectively told Yan Luanqing everything that happened on Demon Island.
"What?"
"Fellow Jiuling Daoist actually died on the Demon Island? He has nine lions by his side, and his combat power is comparable to that of a monk in the late Nascent Soul..."
After hearing the news of Master Jiuling's death, Yan Luanqing was shocked and seemed unable to believe the ending.
Things harm their own kind, and the autumn song is also sad.
It wasn't that she had a deep friendship with Master Jiuling, but after hearing that Master Jiuling, who was far more powerful than her, died on Demon Island, she couldn't believe the ending.
After the monks from the North Vietnam Kingdom reached the Nascent Soul Realm, very few of them died, unless there was a sect war like Yinhuanzhai and Wuliang Sect.
"Fortunately, Junior Brother Chang, you are fine."
Yan Luanqing patted her chest, glanced at Xu Xing who was intact, and smiled.
Choose differently.
The results are also different.
Xu Xing did not go to Louhai Secret Realm to seek opportunities, but stayed in Wushanfang City to open a shop to make money. Although he did not encounter any additional opportunities, it was better than dying in the secret realm.
"This time I went to Demon Island, my cultivation level also broke through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul."
After thinking for a while, Xu Xing revealed to Yan Luanqing his cultivation in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, which he had reached more than a hundred years ago.
Yan Luanqing is not his bedfellow. They are just a senior brother and sister. It is not too much to hide a small level of cultivation.
"Junior Brother Chang's breakthrough in cultivation is a blessing to my Wuliang Sect." Yan Luanqing nodded.
"but……"
Xu Xing sighed and told the story about how he "unintentionally" offended Li Taiyue, the leader of Tianyi Sect.
There is no need to conceal the fact that he offended Tianyi Sect. If Wuliang Sect was unaware of this and neglected to take precautions, resulting in casualties, it would be his fault for not reporting it.
"Tianyi Sect?"
Yan Luanqing's smile faded, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.
"Junior Brother Chang, don't worry about this. The cause and effect of Li Taiyue's grudge against you lies with Daojun Jiang Yue of Yinhuanzhai..."
"Tianyi Sect is unreasonable and uses its power to oppress others. Senior Sister will remember this grudge."
She said indifferently.
Hearing this, Xu Xing nodded and said no more.
He believed that it would not take long before Yan Luanqing would not have to avenge this grudge, but he or the Emperor's Pavilion would.
Speaking out was just to make Yan Luanqing be on guard to avoid being calculated by others.
"Has Senior Sister Yan met Elder Stone Monkey before? Do you know why he summoned us cultivators to the pavilion?"
Xu Xing restarted the topic.
"I have asked Elder Stone Monkey and Purple Fox Hall Master about this matter, but they both don't know. They just said that this matter is very important and it may be our destiny."
Yan Luanqing shook her head and recounted what Elder Stone Monkey and Purple Fox Hall Master said when she met them, asking Xu Xing to analyze it together.
"Since we are here, we should make the best of it."
After listening to the recounted words, Xu Xing was silent for a moment and sighed.
Then, he took out a bag from his sleeve and handed it to Yan Luanqing.
"This is a set of fourth-level magic arrays refined by my junior brother, called Tiangang Thunder and Fire Array, which my senior sister can use for self-defense..."
"In addition to this fourth-level array, there are three fourth-level talismans in the bag that can be used for escape."
Xu Xing said.
After helping Lingyinmen refine the Tiangang Thunder and Fire Array, he also collected these corresponding spiritual materials with the help of Tiande Pawnshop to refine the array.
With the protection of innate immortal energy and many magical powers, he is already invincible in the Nascent Soul Realm.
One more or one less fourth-level formation is not a big deal for him.
On the contrary, after the next battle launched by the Emperor's Pavilion, if there is no "Tiangang Thunder Fire Formation", Yan Luanqing may be in danger of falling.
"This fourth-level formation is too precious, I can't accept it..." Yan Luanqing shook her head slightly, took a half step back, and refused.
"Junior brother, you are being targeted by the cultivators of Tianyi Sect, which is already in danger. If you give me this fourth-level formation, how can you defend yourself?"
Her face showed a serious look.
On the way, she has received a lot of favors from Xu Xing, although there are other compensations afterwards, such as she also borrowed merit points to let Xu Xing exchange for the fourth-level spiritual item "Lihuo Xing" to break through the cultivation.
However, favors cannot be measured with goods. At this moment, she thought she still owed Xu Xing a favor.
She knew that if she wanted to walk on the road with Xu Xing for a longer time, mutual support was the long-term way.
"Sister Yan is right, but Junior Brother has the ancient inheritance. If he uses those few tricks, a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage will be nothing more than that in Junior Brother's eyes."
"If Sister Yan didn't have this fourth-level formation, Junior Brother would be distracted..."
Xu Xing said this, shook his head, and didn't say anything more.
