Chapter 425: Big Profit, 9th Soul Condensation, Withered Vine
Chapter 425: Big Profit, Nine-turn Soul Condensation, Withered Vine
An ancient palace suspended in the void.
The stars are moving around.
It feels like being in the vast universe.
In the square in front of the temple.
A huge teleportation array stands here.
Monks were coming from different directions of the palace from time to time. Most of them were in disordered breath and bloodstained clothes. Some covered their broken arms and looked pale. Some had blood oozing from the corners of their mouths and barely supported themselves. Some even had to be supported by their companions to stand steadily. The air was filled with a faint smell of blood and suppressed gasps.
Around the square, there stood twelve stone pillars that reached the sky. The pillars were engraved with obscure forbidden runes, faintly emitting a frightening pressure. Above the palace door, an ancient bronze plaque hung high, with the three characters "Taixu Palace" inscribed on it. The strokes were sharp, as if containing the supreme principles of Taoism.
The most eye-catching thing is a blood-red stone tablet suspended in the center of the square, on which is written an iron rule in gold paint:
"No fighting allowed, violators will be killed!"
The handwriting is as sharp as a knife, full of murderous intent.
Obviously, anyone who dares to take action here will be killed by thunder in an instant.
The monks were alert to each other, but they did not dare to act rashly. They could only heal their wounds silently or talk in low voices, waiting for the opportunity to enter the Taixu Palace. The entire square was shrouded in an eerie silence, with only the occasional low hum of stars in the void.
In the palace.
Under a catalpa tree in the northwest.
Wu Liangba and his three senior brothers and sisters sat cross-legged.
Wu Liangba's eyes fell on Yu Qingru, his expression somewhat grim:
"Junior Sister Kui, my evil-repelling bead fell into the hands of that woman. Could this Fu Changsheng be..."
If something happens to Fu Changsheng.
Then their original plan would be ruined.
Junior Sister Kui, who was wearing the Yin Corpse Cloth, hesitated for a moment and said:
"This Fu Changsheng was able to lead the Fu family from nothing to the current seventh rank. He probably has one or two life-saving trump cards in his hand. If I'm not mistaken, this evil-repelling bead should have been given to Yu Qingru by him on his own initiative."
Upon hearing this, Wu Liangba's face became even uglier.
He gave the other party the evil-repelling bead not to let Fu Changsheng be a hero or to offer gifts to Buddha.
If Fu Changsheng cannot arrive alive, don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless and causing the death of Yu Qingru.
Naked hostility.
How could Yu Qingru not sense it?
but.
At this moment, she was only concerned about Yaoyao's safe escape. If anything happened to Yaoyao, she would not be able to face her husband and mistress in the future.
hum!
The light curtain outside the hall surged.
The figure of Elder Cao San appeared in a flash.
Yu Qingru stepped forward quickly:
"Friend Cao, have you seen Yaoyao and the others along the way?"
Elder Cao San shook his head guiltily.
crucial moment.
He runs the fastest.
However, when they disappeared at the edge of the western cliff, they found that Fu Changli and the clan leader had not left. Now facing three quasi-fourth-level ghosts, they were afraid that they would have been defeated.
Elder Cao San walked silently to a corner and sat cross-legged. After him, Elder Cao Wu and three other elders of the Cao family also arrived one after another. As expected, Elder Cao San did not see the two Cao clan leaders and sighed in his heart.
At this moment, Elder Cao Wu glared at Elder San:
"I didn't know that Third Brother's escape speed was so fast."
Obviously.
This is a mockery.
Elder Cao San was in the wrong, and although he was unhappy, he fortunately did not refute.
In his opinion.
The first floor of the Taixu Palace is so dangerous. If the Cao family wants to continue moving forward, they must unite as one. Internal strife at this time is undoubtedly like an old man hanging himself.
Elder Cao Wu obviously had the deepest relationship with Patriarch Cao. He could not sit still at all and kept wandering back and forth at the entrance of the hall. After half a cup of tea, when the hall was about to be closed, there was a buzzing sound and a green light broke through the air.
The green light faded away.
The figures of Fu Changsheng, Fu Changli, Yaoyao and Patriarch Cao appeared.
"Yaoyao!"
When Yu Qingru saw Yaoyao arrive safely, the heavy stone that had been hanging in her heart finally fell.
Seeing this, Fu Changsheng on the side joked:
"Qingru, is it true that Yaoyao is the only one in your eyes?"
Yu Qingru glared at Fu Changsheng coquettishly.
the other side.
Elder Cao Wu also hurried over and looked Patriarch Cao up and down. Seeing that he was not injured, he said with relief:
"I'm glad you're okay, Patriarch. I'm glad you're okay!"
"I was able to get out alive thanks to Patriarch Fu's timely rescue."
When Patriarch Cao said this, he deliberately glanced at the Third Elder Cao.
Third Elder Cao wanted to sacrifice Fu Changli at that time. Now when he heard that the head of his family was saved by Fu Changsheng, his face turned pale and blue. But despite this, he still felt that his decision at that time was the wisest.
Wu Liangba, who was under the catalpa tree, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Fu Changsheng appear.
Fu Changsheng glanced at the number of people in the hall and found that there were half as many as when he came in, but he didn't know how many more people had obtained the teleportation order. At the same time, he scanned the hall with his spiritual sense and found that the three people who escaped from the Blood Demon Sect were not among the monks in the hall:
"It seems that the other party is probably using a secret technique similar to the Thousand Faces Technique."
If so.
That means the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light.
at the same time.
Patriarch Cao said in a flattering tone:
"Fellow Daoist Fu, I wonder if you have any extra teleportation orders. I won't take them for nothing. I will definitely give you something that will satisfy you in exchange."
talking.
Patriarch Cao handed the storage bag of the deceased eighth elder of the Cao family to Fu Changsheng.
meet as planned.
Half of the income earned by the sixth, seventh, and eighth elders of the Cao family from entering the secret realm should belong to their Fu family, and they have also sworn an oath not to conceal anything or do anything deceptive.
Fu Changsheng took the storage bag, glanced at it, and found that there were only some third-level spiritual herbs in it, and nothing special. He took out 25% of it, because the other half had to be handed over to the court, and handed the storage bag back to Patriarch Cao.
He pondered:
"Patriarch Cao, do you have any Donghua Yimu?"
"Donghua Yimu?"
Patriarch Cao smiled awkwardly:
"Brother Fu, are you kidding? I have never heard of such a rare thing."
but.
Fu Changsheng is willing to make an offer.
This meant that the other party was willing to exchange. Clan leader Cao gritted his teeth and planned to take out the greatest gain of his trip. He was about to speak when the Third Elder Cao at the side immediately stopped him and said, "Patriarch, no, this Fourth Transformation Azure Lotus is nearly a thousand years old. Even if it is put up for auction in the market, it is still a rare item worth a lot of money."
This is what the six members of the Cao family got after escaping danger of death.
Patriarch Cao seemed to have heard nothing.
If they could obtain the teleportation order, he believed that they would have greater opportunities in the future, so he quickly communicated with Fu Changsheng through voice transmission.
Fu Changsheng's eyes lit up:
"Patriarch Cao, how many years will it take for the fourth-level Azure Lotus in your hand to mature?"
If there is such a thing.
Then his third-level treasure lotus lantern can be upgraded to a fourth-level magic weapon. Now he has the assistance of the seven-colored glazed beast, and his cultivation can be raised to the false pill realm, so he can barely use a fourth-level magic weapon.
Patriarch Cao saw something promising.
Nor hide:
“It takes a hundred years to mature”
century?
If Yongwei is allowed to ripen it, and if it is blessed with the colorful glazed beast feces, perhaps the time can be shortened a little. However, if you want to use it as quickly as possible, you still need to find the source of life water. One drop can make the fourth-level blue lotus mature.
No matter how.
He wanted this fourth level blue lotus:
"Patriarch Cao, you are still short of a few teleportation orders."
"Three!"
Patriarch Cao couldn't wait to say.
When he was teleported in, he was besieged by two quasi-fourth-level vengeful spirits. It took him three uses of talismans to kill the two spirits. However, there were five people in their Cao family, so he was still short of three talismans.
Patriarch Cao looked at Fu Changsheng with some trepidation.
I don’t know if the other party is willing.
but.
This is the most valuable spiritual object he can offer.
however.
What he didn't expect was that Fu Changsheng said cheerfully:
"Okay, deal"
When I was on the road before.
Fourth sister Fu Changli told him that if it weren't for Patriarch Cao's insistence, she would not have waited for Fu Changsheng to come and rescue her. So for the favor of Patriarch Cao and the 900-year-old fourth-level green lotus, the three teleportation orders were worth it.
A wave of sleeves.
Spiritual light surged, and then three teleportation orders floated towards Patriarch Cao without any cover.
This move comes out.
Many cultivators in the field immediately stood up and swarmed around Fu Changsheng:
"My fellow Daoist, do you have any extra teleportation orders? The price is negotiable. Please give me one."
"Fellow Daoist, I will take care of all your teleportation orders. You decide the price."
"Hey, Huang Laoqi, I opened my mouth first, why are you fighting with me? At least there's a first come first served principle, right?"
"."
For a while.
The originally quiet palace suddenly became noisy, as if one had returned to the market town.
Upon seeing this, Patriarch Cao was afraid that others would offer better conditions, so he quickly took the initiative to stuff the jade box containing the Fourth-level Green Lotus into Fu Changsheng's hands, and he received the three teleportation orders.
Elder Cao Wu was overjoyed to see that he could also enter the real Taixu Palace. He glanced at Elder Cao San and pointed at Fu Changsheng who was surrounded by people, saying:
"Third brother, you saw it. If the head of the family hadn't spoken in time, we wouldn't have gotten the teleportation order."
Patriarch Cao smiled and shook his head:
"It's not my credit, it's Patriarch Fu's righteousness"
Elder Cao San's mouth twitched, but he said nothing.
Because among the five people of the Cao family, he and Patriarch Cao are the strongest, so the two teleportation orders in Patriarch Cao's hand are enough to allow them to enter the real Taixu Palace. The nine hundred year old fourth-level green lotus is hard to come by, and it is not certain that the fifth brother and others will be able to obtain spiritual objects of equal value next time.
Also.
The next level will be a blessing or a curse.
The ideal situation would be to let Lao Wu and his men keep what the five of them had gained before and leave Taixu Palace.
This way.
Even if something happens to them on the second floor, it won't be all in vain.
just.
I'm afraid the patriarch won't want to hear this.
Elder Cao San sighed slightly.
the other side.
Fu Changsheng saw the monks in the hall gathering around him, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He raised his hand and waved it, and four extra teleportation orders flashing with faint blue light floated above his palm, and the runes flowed, emitting waves of spatial fluctuations.
"My fellow Taoists, since everyone wants this teleportation order, I will hold an open auction for it. The highest bidder will win."
As soon as the words fell, the whole palace was boiling!
"I'll offer three thousand-year-old elixirs!" A purple-robed monk spoke first. His voice was hoarse but revealed his determination to win.
“Hmph, you dare to show off a mere elixir? I’m willing to exchange it for a third-level fourth-rank magic weapon!” Another stern-looking man with a long sword on his back sneered and flicked his sleeves. A flying sword with a cold light floated in the air, and the sword body hummed, obviously of extraordinary quality.
"Although a quasi-fourth-level magic weapon is good, it is ultimately an external object. I have an ancient pill recipe here that can be used to refine the 'Nine-Transformation Soul-Condensing Pill' to help ghost cultivators break through the bottleneck of the golden elixir!" said a white-haired old man in a deep voice.
"Hmph, you old thing, aren't you cursing me to die early? Besides, although the pill formula is precious, we still need to find the main ingredient. I am willing to exchange it with three 'Tiangang Thunder Talismans'. Each of them contains a full-strength attack from a fake pill cultivator!" A middle-aged cultivator wearing a Taoist robe with thunder patterns shouted loudly, and the talisman in his hand flashed with lightning, with astonishing power.
"."
The atmosphere in the venue became increasingly intense, and everyone started to raise the price.
Fu Changsheng's eyes were as fast as lightning, quickly scanning the treasures that the many cultivators were vying to throw out. His slender fingers tapped the storage bag lightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Wait a minute, fellow Taoists." He raised his hand and pressed it lightly, and the noisy voices in the hall suddenly quieted down. "I only want four."
The first item chosen was a jade slip that was completely emerald green.
The white-haired old man was delighted when he saw this:
"Fellow Daoist Fu is indeed a man of insight! This recipe for the Nine-Turn Soul Condensation Pill is from ancient times and can help ghost cultivators break through the Golden Elixir bottleneck and increase their success rate by 30%!"
Fu Changsheng nodded slightly. This was exactly what he needed most at the moment.
The autumn cicada is about to reach the golden elixir.
This recipe comes at the right time.
"Get out of my way"
at this time.
A strong man in a gray robe squeezed forward.
One shot storage bag.
A flash of glow.
A box with a white background and animal patterns appeared. When the box was opened, a pitch-black animal egg was revealed. The surface was covered with blood-colored patterns, but no trace of life could be sensed.
But
Once this egg comes out.
The temperature in the hall dropped suddenly, and fine ice crystals condensed on the ground.
"Fellow Daoist Fu, I got this beast egg from the Ten Thousand Demons Valley. It has been sealed for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, but it still has this strange phenomenon. This item is more than enough to exchange for a teleportation order."
The monk next to him laughed and said:
"Fellow Daoist, do you think everyone else is an idiot? You took out a dead egg and still want to exchange it for a teleportation order. It's really laughable."
"That's right, get out of the way right now, don't delay us from exchanging the teleportation order."
"."
Everyone laughed.
Fu Changli, who was standing behind Fu Changsheng, suddenly brightened up his eyes.
As a beastmaster.
She instinctively felt that this beast egg was no ordinary thing.
Immediately, he quickly transmitted the message:
"Master, promise him."
It was the first time that Fu Changsheng saw his fourth sister so excited. He looked at the beast eggs without changing his expression.
The gray-robed monk became a little nervous when he saw this, and quickly added:
"Fellow Daoist, please accept this. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I am Sun Siman, the third branch of the Sun family, a fifth-rank family in Jinzhou."
A fifth-rank family?
This is a Jindan family.
Fu Changsheng immediately smiled and said:
"I want this beast egg"
A wave of sleeves.
A teleportation order floated towards Sun Siman.
Sun Siman was overjoyed.
He immediately bowed to Fu Changsheng and said:
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist. I, Sun Siman, will always remember this favor you have done me." Sun Siman retreated.
A hunchbacked old man trembled and took out a three-foot-long dry vine, which was covered with dragon scale-like patterns:
"My friend, although this piece of dead wood has no life, it is impervious to water and fire, and is invulnerable to swords and guns. If you exchange it for a teleportation order, you will definitely not lose out."
Next to the old man.
A young girl said anxiously:
"Grandfather, didn't you say this dead tree is..."
The old man glared at the girl.
The girl realized she had talked too much and immediately shut up.
Fu Changsheng was about to pass by, but when he scanned with his spiritual sense, he felt vaguely familiar:
"Could it be that this is..."
The remaining branches of the ancient mysterious vine in the Five Elements Space?
Mind this.
His heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
But on the surface, he walked forward calmly and touched it with his hand.
But the ancient Xuanteng in the space did not respond at all. After hesitating for a moment, he said:
"Fellow Daoist, if you add three more third-grade top-grade spiritual herbs, this teleportation order will be yours."
This statement came out.
The old man's eyes lit up and he quickly urged his granddaughter to take out the Nailing grass.
Smiling, she said:
"My friend, you are a person of great fortune. If you follow this withered vine, you will surely have a good fortune in the future."
talking.
Without giving Fu Changsheng a chance to regret.
He quickly stuffed the dead vine into Fu Changsheng's hand and took his granddaughter away. The girl turned around and looked at Fu Changsheng apologetically, then quickly looked away.
"What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?"
It all seems slow.
In fact, it is just a matter of counting breaths.
The other cultivators who had extra teleportation orders in their hands reacted and wanted to exchange them quietly, but when Fu Changsheng disrupted their thinking, they immediately took out their teleportation orders and started bidding.
The entire temple.
All of a sudden it became lively.
These monks have spared no expense in order to enter the real Taixu Palace.
Most of the people here at Fu Changsheng's place left at once, leaving only a few people who were unable to squeeze in and make an offer.
at this time.
A cold voice came into his ears:
"I am willing to exchange it for the 'Fragmentary Map of the Great Void'. This map records some of the secrets of the Great Void Palace and its value is inestimable."
"The incomplete picture of the Great Void?"
Fu Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked in the direction of the voice.
A woman in a plain white dress stood quietly in a corner, her face covered by a veil, revealing only a pair of cold eyes. She tapped her fingertips, and a yellowed and broken jade slip floated up. The runes on it were dim, but it faintly revealed a hint of ancient and mysterious aura.
"Are you serious, fellow Daoist?" Fu Changsheng asked in a deep voice.
The woman nodded slightly. "This map is a secret from my master's sect. It records the method to break the restrictions of the second floor of the Taixu Palace, the 'Xuanming Palace'. Without the guidance of this map, anyone who enters will die. I can swear on my soul."
Fu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, deal."
He waved his sleeves, and the last teleportation order flew to the woman. The woman took it, flicked her jade finger, and the remaining map turned into flowing light and fell into Fu Changsheng's palm.
——Boom!
The entire palace trembled suddenly, and the huge bronze palace door made a dull roar and slowly closed. At the same time, the teleportation array pattern on the ground suddenly lit up, and countless runes flowed like snakes, interweaving into a dazzling light curtain, completely isolating the palace from the outside world.
"The time has come. Those who do not hold the order, retreat!"
The light curtain rippled like water waves, and only the cultivator holding the teleportation order had a faint spiritual light all over his body, resonating with the formation. His figure gradually became blurred and was about to be teleported to the second level.
In the blink of an eye, a thin and casual cultivator had a fierce look in his eyes. He suddenly pounced on a young female cultivator beside him and shouted:
"With just a foundation building experience, are you qualified to enter the Grand Void Palace? Hand over the teleportation order!"
He formed his five fingers into claws and went straight for the jade token hanging on the waist of the female cultivator, at a speed as fast as lightning!
The female cultivator's face turned pale. She had no time to react in such a hurry. She could only watch the other party's hand approaching her vital point.
--laugh!
However, just as the fingertips of that casual cultivator were about to touch the teleportation order, the light curtain suddenly twisted, and a dazzling golden light burst out from the array pattern, like a blade of heavenly punishment, instantly piercing his chest!
"what--!"
Amidst the shrill screams, the body of the casual cultivator disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye, his flesh and blood dissipated like smoke and dust, and finally turned into a wisp of black gas, which was completely swallowed up by the light curtain.
There was dead silence all around.
"Idiot." Wu Liangba sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm, "How dare you challenge the rules of Taixu Palace?"
The other cultivators all looked stern, and no one dared to have any evil thoughts. The young female cultivator was still in shock, and she tightly grasped the teleportation order, fearing that someone else would snatch it away.
Fu Changsheng glanced across the room and said calmly, "Although the opportunity is good, you have to be alive to take it."
Before he finished speaking, the light curtain solidified completely, and the figures of all those holding the order gradually blurred, and finally turned into streams of light and disappeared on the spot.
"Longevity. Longevity"
In a daze.
Fu Changsheng heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from above his head.
When you open your eyes.
What I saw was a kind and amiable face.
Although more than a hundred years have passed.
But how could he forget this face? It was his grandfather who raised him with all his might. After not seeing him for more than a hundred years, Fu Changsheng felt a lump in his throat:
"grandfather."
"Just wake up, it'll be fine, just wake up, it'll be fine"
Mr. Fu had obviously not slept for several nights as he was guarding Fu Changsheng.
See grandson wake up.
Still couldn't help but admonish:
"Changsheng, don't try to be so stubborn in the future. Cultivation is based on taking one step at a time. It can't be accomplished overnight. Don't force a breakthrough. You are only fifteen years old. You are still young. Even if your grandfather has to sacrifice his old bones, he will definitely help you build your foundation successfully."
just
Grandfather is long gone.
He died in the disaster when the Tianlong tribe invaded Luofeng Mountain.
Everything before my eyes is just an illusion.
Fu Changsheng clearly remembered that he entered the Taixu Palace of Kunlun Secret Realm. He probably entered the illusion realm directly when he was teleported to the second floor.
The idea is settled.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself still lying on the small bed:
"What's going on?"
Fu Changsheng was stunned.
at this time.
An old man with a kind face came in from outside. When he saw Fu Changsheng wake up, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he said happily:
"Young Patriarch is finally awake. During the time you were in a coma, the Patriarch stayed by your side day and night, and he became quite haggard. It just so happens that the sacrificial ceremony is ready, and Young Patriarch can attend as well."
The words have not yet fallen.
But he was stopped by Mr. Fu:
"No, Changsheng just woke up and is weak. Let him rest for a while."
talking.
After instructing Fu Changsheng, he stood up and left with the old man:
"grandfather!!"
Fu Changsheng looked at the old man in green robe, Li Guiming, and the past events suddenly became clear. More than a hundred years ago, his family was massacred by the Tianlong tribe. It was the traitor Li Guiming who opened the mountain protection formation. He did not expect to return to the day when his family was destroyed.
Even though I feel like everything is an illusion.
But he didn't want his grandfather and his clan members to die again:
"Grandfather, I have something to tell you."
Upon seeing this, Mr. Fu waved to Li Guiming.
After Li Guiming went out.
Fu Changsheng didn't know how to start for a moment. After pondering for a while, he simply said:
"Grandfather, when I was unconscious, I had a dream. In the dream, our Fu family was massacred by the Tianlong tribe today. Only my eldest brother, third brother and fourth sister survived. The culprit for the destruction of our family was the traitor Li Guiming, who colluded with the Tianlong tribe."
Hearing this, Mr. Fu frowned slightly, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He knew that his grandson Fu Changsheng was very smart since he was a child and never spoke nonsense, but this matter was of great importance and involved the survival of the family, so he had to treat it with caution.
"Changsheng, are you sure what you saw in this dream is true?" Old Master Fu asked in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on Fu Changsheng's eyes.
Fu Changsheng took a deep breath and nodded firmly: "Grandfather, I dare not speak nonsense. The things in the dream are vivid in my mind, especially Li Guiming's betrayal, which I saw with my own eyes. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to secretly investigate the foot of the mountain. There must be an ambush of the Tianlong tribe."
Mr. Fu was silent for a moment, then turned and walked out the door, whispering a few words to the confidant who was guarding the door. The confidant took the order and left, his figure quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor.
Inside the house, Fu Changsheng was worried. He knew that time was running out. If he couldn't stop it in time, tragedy would happen again. He struggled to get up from the bed. Although he was weak, his anxiety made him unable to sit still.
"Changsheng, lie down and rest first. Grandpa is here to take care of everything." Grandpa Fu turned around and saw his grandson standing up, so he hurried forward to support him.
"Grandfather, time is running out. We must prepare early." Fu Changsheng said anxiously.
Mr. Fu patted his shoulder, a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, if it's really as you said, Grandfather will never let the family fall into danger."
After a while, the confidant hurried back with a serious expression, "Master, there is indeed movement at the foot of the mountain. We found a large number of people lurking. Judging from their attire, they are from the Tianlong tribe."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Fu's face suddenly changed, his eyes burning with anger: "Li Guiming, how dare you betray the family!"
He immediately gave the order: "Pass it down, the whole clan is on alert, activate the mountain protection formation, and no one is allowed to leave the mountain without permission. In addition, secretly control Li Guiming and do not alert the enemy."
The order was quickly passed down, and the entire Fu family became nervous. The mountain protection formation was quietly activated, and an invisible barrier covered the entire Luofeng Mountain.
At the same time, Li Guiming was secretly controlled, and a token of contact with the Tianlong tribe was found on him. The evidence was irrefutable, and Mr. Fu was furious, and immediately ordered him to be detained and dealt with later.
At the foot of Luofeng Mountain, the ambushing troops of the Tianlong tribe waited for a long time but received no signal, and gradually became anxious. The tribal leader frowned and said, "What's going on? Why hasn't Li Guiming sent a signal yet?"
The deputy whispered, "Chief, has something happened?"
The leader snorted coldly: "No matter what, we must take Luofeng Mountain today! Pass the order down, and attack violently!"
Following the order, the warriors of the Tianlong tribe rushed towards Luofeng Mountain like a tide. However, just as they approached the foot of the mountain, they were blocked by the mountain protection formation that was suddenly activated. Countless arrows and spells poured down from the mountain, catching them off guard.
"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" The leader was horrified and quickly ordered a retreat, but it was too late. Under the command of Mr. Fu, the Fu family members took advantage of the victory and pursued the ambush troops of the Tianlong tribe, killing them completely.
After the battle, the entire Fu family cheered. Grandpa Fu stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the enemy going away, and heaved a sigh of relief. He turned and looked at Fu Changsheng beside him, his eyes full of relief: "Changsheng, thanks to your warning, otherwise my Fu family would be in danger today."
Fu Changsheng smiled slightly, but his heart was filled with mixed feelings. He knew that although all this was an illusion, it could prevent the disaster from happening again and allow him to stay with his grandfather for a while longer. He was willing to do it. Although the illusion was fake, the feelings were real:
"It's almost time."
He took one last look at his grandfather.
The obsession is gone.
All illusions before my eyes disappeared.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in an ice palace:
"Is this the second floor of Taixu Palace?"
A wave of sleeves.
The map of the Ice Palace that was exchanged with the mysterious female cultivator appeared before his eyes. What was depicted in the map was the same as the scene before his eyes.
There was cold fog all around and ice crystals condensed into a wall.
There was frost and snow underfoot.
With every step I took, the cold air pierced into my bones like a knife.
Fu Changsheng had an idea.
Crimson flames burst out from the palm of his hand and turned into a blooming red lotus. The scorching heat dispelled the coldness around his body, causing the ice crystals to melt and mist to rise.
Just walked a few steps.
suddenly.
There was a low roar coming from the front.
"Roar--"
A snow-white ice cloud beast shaped like a giant wolf jumped out from behind the ice wall. Its eyes were dark blue and it spewed frost from its mouth. Wherever it passed, ice thorns grew!
Fu Changsheng's eyes focused, and the red lotus flame in his palm suddenly expanded and turned into a flaming blade that slashed down from the air.
boom!
The fire blade split the frost, the Ice Cloud Beast howled, and its body was engulfed by the flames, turning into a pool of icy water and dissipating.
at the same time.
Accompanied by a few clicking sounds.
The ice wall in front collapsed with a loud bang, revealing a crystal clear ice pool. The water in the pool was clear to the bottom and the air was cold.
Center of the pool.
A thousand-year-old snow lotus quietly blooms, its petals are like snow, and its heart glows with a faint spiritual light:
"It's actually a mature thousand-year-old snow lotus!"
Fu Changsheng was delighted and was about to go forward to pick them.
suddenly.
The water in the pool is rippling.
A graceful figure emerged from the bottom of the pool:
"Hey, is it you?"
The woman had long black hair like a waterfall, skin whiter than snow, and not a single strand of clothing on.
It was the mysterious female cultivator who had exchanged the map with him outside the Taixu Palace.
This pool obviously has unique effects.
Otherwise, this woman would not bathe here.
The woman stood up.
The falling water droplets reflect the spiritual light of the snow lotus, making it even more fairy-like and beautiful.
The woman chuckled, her eyes as bright as water:
"Friend Fu, you came quite quickly, but we should follow the principle of first come first served. This thousand-year-old snow lotus cannot belong to you."
Fu Changsheng frowned slightly.
The thousand-year-old snow lotus is right within reach, how could he give up?
"excuse me!"
His figure flashed, and the red lotus flame rose again in his palm, going straight for the snow lotus!
Upon seeing this, the woman waved her jade hand and the pool water turned into icy blades that shot out!
"boom!"
Fire and ice collided, and mist filled the air.
Fu Changsheng took the opportunity to grab the snow lotus, but the moment he touched the lotus heart, he frowned. The touch of this thousand-year-old snow lotus was completely different from the one in the Five Elements Space. Thinking back to entering the Ice Palace, everything was too smooth:
"Illusion!"
It turned out to be a double illusion.
Fu Changsheng was horrified and immediately activated his spiritual sense, shouting:
"break!"
Red lotus flames erupted.
