Chapter 470: A Little Difference, Chaos in the Sky River
Chapter 470: A Little Different, Chaos in the Sky
The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor was holding up the Tongjian, and the picture in the Tongjian was facing the newly-forged Xianjian Sword.
There was a melancholy look on his face, as if he was recalling something, with a hint of smile on his lips.
Sect Leader Yan stood behind him, leaned over and looked at the Xianjian, exclaiming in amazement:
"Did they really create it? Apart from those messy symbols, I can't tell any difference at all."
He is also quite familiar with the Xianjian Sword.
Although the real Xianxian Sword has always been in Haori Mountain, there is also a patriarch of the Xianxian lineage in the Sword Pavilion, who usually exists in the form of the Xianxian Sword.
"Materials, techniques, styles..." Nine Nether Demon Ancestor glanced at him, as if he thought he was being noisy, but nodded in agreement, "Even if Tianhe were to come, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to tell the real from the fake."
Sect Leader Yan was quite happy: "Zheng Fa, if you really use this fake one to exchange for the real Xianjian Sword, it would be considered as helping us."
The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor is not afraid of the Immortal Sword.
But he is afraid!
Therefore, he was extremely enthusiastic about Zheng Fa's imitation of the Xianjian Sword and even sent many records from the Tianhe Sect to him.
Now that he saw the pirated Xianjian completed, he actually felt a sense of honor.
"What are you laughing at?" Jiuyou Demon Ancestor glanced at him, "The Xianjian Sword originally belonged to the Tianhe Sect, and now it's been copied by the Jiushan Sect. Are you happy?"
"..."
"Can you build it?"
"..."
"As the head of Tianhe Sect, you can actually laugh?"
"..."
Sect Leader Yan looked at the Demon Ancestor’s dark face and thought, this is outrageous, you are about to overthrow the Tianhe Sect, and you still have such expectations of me?
But he had no way to refute it - theoretically speaking, this person might be one of the founders of the Tianhe School, an absolute ancestor. It really made sense for him to criticize himself, the descendants of the Tianhe School.
Sect Leader Yan suddenly had an idea and thought of the Immortal Trap Master in the Sword Pavilion. He said, "We also have a fake Immortal Trap Sword in the Tianhe Sect..."
Facing the cold gaze of the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor, his voice became lower and lower, and finally it was only as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "We are indeed quite different..."
Zheng Fa listened to Sect Leader Yan's speaking style and felt it was familiar. Then he thought, isn't this annoying way of speaking probably similar to Yan Wushuang's?
He was just finding it funny when he heard Nine Nether Demon Ancestor say to him:
"The Tianhe Sect will undergo a major change soon. Are you prepared?"
Zheng Fa suppressed the smile on his face and nodded silently.
Speaking of which, he had cooperated with the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor once before, and now, unknowingly, he was on the same side again because of Haori Mountain.
Although he still had some doubts about the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor, to be honest, he still stood on the side of the Demon Ancestor and hoped that the other party could be more powerful - it would be best if he could kill Hao Rishan.
There was no expression on the face of the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor. He just stared at Zheng Fa, as if he was thinking about something.
"I'll have someone send you a Nine Nether Talisman."
"Ok?"
Zheng Fa opened his eyes wide; he didn't expect such an unexpected surprise.
"I can't take care of you for now." The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor's voice was faint, but in Zheng Fa's ears, it was like a spring breeze, warming his heart, "Don't die."
...To be honest, at this moment, Zheng Fa felt a little ashamed and thought that he shouldn't have hit the Demon Ancestor in the same way before.
Watching the face of the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor disappear in the Tongjian, Zheng Fa turned around and saw Senior Sister Zhang frowning at him and asked, "Why is this Demon Ancestor so generous?"
Zheng Fa figured it out: "He probably values Tongjian very much."
Unless he is really the reincarnation of Venerable Tianhe, he would not be so loved by everyone. After thinking about it, only Tongjian can make the Demon Ancestor place bets again and again.
"Tongjian?" Although Senior Sister Zhang didn't quite understand why the Demon Ancestor wanted Tongjian, she looked a little relieved and nodded gently, "Since the Demon Ancestor has a purpose, I feel a little more relieved."
That’s true, otherwise, it would be too hot for Zheng Fa to handle the Nine Nether Talisman.
"In this way, the last flaw of my "Heavenly Gang and Earthly Demon Transformation" can almost be said to be gone."
"Transformations of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Demons" is not foolproof - its only weakness lies in the spirit and soul.
It was okay when facing ordinary gods, but if he faced a Dao Fruit cultivator above the God, he actually had no confidence. If the other party had some secret arts of the soul, then his identity, Li Hao, would be exposed immediately.
But things are different with the Nine Nether Talisman.
Zheng Fa still had a deep impression of how this Nine Nether Demon Ancestor had manipulated the Great Free Demon Ancestor back then...
From this, we can see that the Nine Nether Talisman has no flaws, at least when facing the Dao Fruit of the same level as the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor.
You know, the Great Free Demon Ancestor is also an expert in playing with souls.
……
The one who came to deliver the Nine Netherworld Talisman was also an old acquaintance - the Netherworld Immortal Qin Mu.
"Master Zheng." Qin Mu did not hesitate to hand a black talisman to Zheng Fa and explained, "Master Zheng connects the talisman with his soul and absorbs it into his sea of consciousness. This talisman can change your soul's aura, making it hard to tell whether it is real or fake."
Zheng Fa held the Nine Nether Talisman with a look of joy in his eyes, but he still had some doubts in his heart:
How did the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor know that this thing would be useful to him?
Is the information so accurate?
Is there a traitor in his Nine Mountains Realm?
At this time, Qin Mu spoke again: "But this is just a trivial skill for the Holy Ancestor. This Nine Nether Talisman has other magical powers."
"Ok?"
"Master, aren't you curious about how I came back to life from the dead in that formation?"
"Resurrection from the dead?"
Zheng Fa widened his eyes, suddenly lowered his head, and looked at the Nine Nether Talisman in his hand, his heart horrified.
"Hide the fate, decide life and death." Even though the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor was not in front of the two, there was some fanatical respect in the tone of the Netherworld Immortal, "The Holy Ancestor's magical powers are amazing."
Zheng Fa watched the Netherworld Immortal go away, then looked at the Nine Nether Talisman, feeling somewhat relieved:
It seems that the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor is unaware of the details of "The Changes of the Heavenly Gang and the Earthly Demons". He sent the Nine Nether Edict just as he said - he was afraid that Zheng Fa would kill him.
I didn't expect that the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor is a professional at playing with his life.
The power of the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor that Mu Qingyan mentioned is called the Underworld, which surprisingly coincides with the effectiveness of the Nine Nether Talisman.
Holding the Nine Nether Talisman, Zheng Fa had only one word in his mind at this moment - stable!
The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor is quite generous. He will really give away the good treasures if he has any.
Sect Leader Yan doesn't think so.
He looked at the Demon Ancestor, hesitantly, his eyes flickering, "Demon Ancestor, you bestowed the talisman on Zheng Fa, is it..."
Jiuyou Demon Ancestor turned his head and looked at him, his face expressionless: "Didn't I say that I was afraid he would die. I don't have many helpers in Xuanwei now, and he is the most important one. I can't handle it in two places..."
Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Yan hurriedly said, "I am also your helper, Demon Ancestor..."
The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor did not speak, but just looked at him. Sect Leader Yan stared at the silence and continued:
"Demon Ancestor, look at this Nine Nether Talisman..."
Sect Leader Yan looked at the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor expectantly. You know, his situation is ten or a hundred times more dangerous than Zheng Fa's.
He also knew the effect of the Nine Nether Talisman ten or a hundred times more clearly than Zheng Fa.
be envious!
"You just said something very good."
"What?"
"You are indeed quite different..." The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor looked outside the palace, still speaking in a light tone, but Sect Leader Yan felt a chill piercing to the bone, "It took quite a bit of effort for me to condense a Nine Nether Talisman."
"..."
"Zheng Fa's life is more valuable than the imperial edict."
Sect Leader Yan opened and closed his mouth, opened and closed it again, and finally closed it tightly. He turned and walked to the corner of the hall without saying a word.
……
When he went up to Shenhuo Mountain again, Zheng Fa had the pirated Xianjian Sword hidden in his storage bag and the Jiuyou Talisman in his sea of consciousness. He felt like he was back home, relaxed and comfortable.
But the atmosphere at Shenhuoshan is far from relaxed.
"Senior Brother Li."
Junior Sister Ye was standing at the mountain gate, as if she was waiting for him.
"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Zheng Fa looked at this cheap junior sister with concern. After all, she was a member of the Ninth Elder's clan and a major customer of his Jiushan Mall.
In the past few years, Hao Rishan has made a lot of contributions to Jiushan Sect:
In the past, Zheng Fa was the only one who was taking advantage of Haori Mountain.
Ever since Tongjian became popular, disciples of Chongxuan Sect have been taking the resources transported from Haori Mountain and going on a shopping spree in Tongjian.
As the acting leader of Chongxuan Sect, Zheng Fa had a clear idea of the distribution of materials in Chongxuan Sect.
According to his calculations, 80% of the spiritual materials and stones transported from Haori Mountain fell into the hands of Jiushan Sect.
He even knew who bought what through the orders in the mall and the material distribution records of the Tongshi Cave of the Chongxuan Sect.
This Junior Sister Ye is a crazy shopaholic.
In fact, Zheng Fa was a little reluctant to fall out with a big party like Hao Rishan...
"Brother Li, do we... have any way out?"
Junior Sister Ye was silent for a long time and then asked softly.
Zheng Fa stopped and looked at Junior Sister Ye, but Junior Sister Ye didn't look at him. She just stared at the top of the mountain and almost talked to herself: "Those disciples of the elders who have reached the state of transformation have all left."
Junior Sister Ye is not a stupid person.
What's more, Shi Nan and his group didn't actually keep some things secret.
These disciples of the Chongxuan Sect had already vaguely sensed their own fate.
However, the departure of the disciples of the elders who had attained the state of spiritual enlightenment one by one was like the final death knell for them, making it impossible for them to escape or numb themselves.
Those disciples of Elder Huashen were only here to cheat for compensation and would not be buried with the people from Chongxuan Sect.
Seeing Zheng Fa didn't say anything, Sister Ye turned around and looked over. Suddenly she smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Li is valued by Master Shi, which is different from the rest of us."
It's hard to hide the emotion in these words.
Zheng Fa was not angry. He just looked at her and found it a little funny in his heart - the Ninth Elder was really tight-lipped. It seemed that Junior Sister Ye had no idea of her identity at all.
Junior Sister Ye continued, "In fact, I have thought about taking my junior brothers and sisters with me to join the Jiushan Sect." "..."
Zheng Fa's mouth twitched, with some surprise in his eyes. This cheap junior sister was really brave today.
As if she understood his look, Sister Ye smiled bitterly: "Someone has tried it before."
"Ok?"
Now, Zheng Fake was even more surprised.
"He was captured by the Eighth Elder."
"No punishment?"
"...Punish?" Junior Sister Ye laughed bitterly. "The Eighth Elder looked at them as if they were dead. Do they still need to be punished?"
"Now, no one cares about what we say or do." At this point, Sister Ye's tone became heavier, "No one cares, which makes us even more desperate."
Zheng Fa now understood why the disciples of Chongxuan Sect spent so crazily - this was not revenge consumption, it was simply because they were afraid of death and had not spent all their money.
"I do not know how?"
"Brother, you are either on the top of the mountain or outside the mountain all year round, how can you know?"
"..."
Zheng Fa became more and more confused as he listened, so he simply asked, "Junior sister, what do you want from me?"
Junior Sister Ye took out a storage bag and handed it to him.
"Ok?"
"Brother, we are brothers and sisters, and you trust me very much. I will remember this in my heart. If I were to..." Sister Ye did not continue, but said, "Here are some spirit stones and magic tools and elixirs that I have accumulated. I will give them to you as a token of my appreciation."
Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment and looked at the storage bag in Junior Sister Ye's hand.
I didn't expect so many people to send him gifts recently.
Seeing that Zheng Fa didn't reach out, Sister Ye said sadly, "These things are probably useless to me. Giving them to other people will be useless, too. Only Brother..."
Zheng Fa looked at Junior Sister Ye's slightly stubborn eyes, thought about it, and took the storage bag.
Junior Sister Ye smiled and then spoke boldly: "Senior Brother, Haori Mountain is not a good place. You must be careful in the future."
These words actually reveal that some people are about to die, and their words are also good.
"Hao Ri Mountain is one of the five major sects in the world..."
“Brother, if I don’t know what the Nine Mountain Sect is like, then Haori Mountain is naturally worthy of the name of the Five Sects.”
...It seems that Chongxuanzong is really free in his speech.
In other words, since doing nothing will get you the death penalty, then what's the big deal about seeking death?
"If we can go to Jiushan Sect, with Senior Brother's talent and qualifications..."
At this point, Junior Sister Ye smiled wistfully, as if she thought it was impossible.
She bowed gently towards Zheng Fa and said, "I won't bother you anymore, Senior Brother."
Zheng Fa glanced at her back, then looked towards the top of the Shenhuo Mountain. There seemed to be a few pairs of emotionless eyes there, watching the entire Chongxuan Sect.
……
Passing through the mist in the formation, Zheng Fa reached the top of the Divine Fire Mountain, and heard Shi Nandang ask with a smile:
"That disciple named Ye is quite bold."
Sure enough, at this moment, Shi Nandang was staring closely at Chongxuan Sect.
"Master, the people of Chongxuan Sect are like this. In the future..."
"What about the future?" Shi Nandang laughed, not caring at all. "The Heaven and Earth Gods Array will be completed. What they think is not important."
Zheng Fa looked into the crater.
The Xianjian Sword is hidden in the belly of the mountain, in the underground fire, lying quietly.
The seven stars in the sky shot down seven beams of light, which condensed into seven thick silver-white chains and locked onto the sword.
There were many new runes on the surface of the pitch-black fairy sword, which looked very similar to the fake fairy sword.
With the cooperation of Xianjian Sword Spirit, this great formation of gods and demons from heaven and earth can indeed be said to be 99% complete.
"Li Hao." Shi Nandang suddenly asked, "If this formation is completed, the life of the disciple surnamed Ye will be in danger."
Zheng Fa looked up at him.
"If you couldn't bear it and begged for mercy, I could spare her life, but her thoughts..."
When Shi Nandang said this, he stared at Zheng Fa.
"It's up to you, Master."
Shi Nandang glanced at him and nodded slightly. He did not say whether he was satisfied with Zheng Fa's reply or not. He just looked at the Eighth Elder beside him and said, "During this period of time, you will be in charge of the Chongxuan Sect."
The Eighth Elder was stunned, his face showing some surprise. He glanced at Zheng Fa again and hurried down the mountain.
Zheng Fa said nothing, and then heard Shi Nandang say, "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just afraid that you will be confused."
"Disciple understands."
"It's good that you understand." Shi Nandang's eyes fell on Zheng Fa, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Don't let her words confuse your mind."
"You are a disciple of Lu Zu, you are different from them."
At this point, Shi Nandang was still making promises to him:
"Once the formation is completed, we will have made great contributions to the sect. When we return to Haori Mountain, we will all be listed as direct descendants of the clan and have a bright future."
"Disciple thanks the Master for the promotion."
Zheng Fa understood a little bit. Shi Nandang really treated him as his confidant.
That’s right, he was almost promoted from the Zhongxuan Sect by Shi Nandang alone.
In Shi Nandang's opinion, if it weren't for him, Li Hao and Junior Sister Ye would have died in the formation - in other words, he was Li Hao's savior.
Plus, the talent Li Hao showed was indeed extraordinary.
That's why Shi Nandang said these to himself today.
Sure enough, after hearing Zheng Fa's thanks, Shi Nandang finally showed some genuine smile. He thought about it, and suddenly his tone was filled with contempt:
"Your Junior Sister Ye only saw how great the Jiushan Sect was in the storybooks, but she didn't know that the storybooks were nice to read, but once the Xianjian Sword was refined by us, it would be the day when the Jiushan Sect would be destroyed."
"Advising you to go to Jiushan Sect? That's really short-sighted. I'm pushing you into a fire pit."
Zheng Fa listened without refutation, but nodded repeatedly, indicating that the Master's teachings were correct and were all good advice. Then he was suddenly stunned again, raised his eyes and looked at Shi Nandang, with an expression that was inevitably a little strange:
Master, could it be that you are also a client of mine, Jiushan?
Shi Nandang seemed to understand Zheng Fa's look and coughed softly, "It's really boring on this Shenhuo Mountain. It's inevitable to get bored when you rest."
At this point, he sighed sincerely: "Come to think of it, I know Zheng Fa. He is indeed a genius... What a pity."
The ninth elder in the formation twitched his mouth and looked at Shi Nandang with a slightly weird expression.
Shi Nandang didn't notice, he just became happier as he spoke: "Although refining the Xianjian sword this time was not smooth at first, now I have completed the goal of the sect in less than ten years."
"After we return to Haori Mountain, there will definitely be a huge reward from the sect!"
"By then, you will also be able to share a lot of credit."
It can be seen that Shi Nandang's expression is full of anticipation, and he even seems to be calculating what rewards he will get.
Zheng Fa actually felt that Shi Nandang actually had some good intentions towards him.
Today, I handed over the power of Chongxuan Sect to the Eighth Elder because I was afraid that I would get into trouble. I let the Eighth Elder be the bad guy. To be honest, he is really taking good care of me.
Zheng Fa’s spiritual sense swept over the fake Xianjian in the storage bag.
Although this person is not a good person, he is really nice to me and can understand my difficulties.
It seems a bit unbearable to let him bear this blame...
The main reason is that the pot is too big and Zheng Fa is afraid that he can't bear it.
After all, Shi Nandang is only a deity. If he damages the Xianjian Sword, Haori Mountain will definitely send people to investigate.
It would be bad if we find any problems by then.
At this moment, a communication talisman suddenly flew from afar and went straight into Shi Nandang's hands.
Inside Zheng Fa's body, the Jade Book of Creation was also vibrating violently, as if someone was sending him an urgent message.
He immersed his soul into the Jade Book of Creation and saw that the person who sent the letter was actually the abbot Mingde of Tai Shang Dao. He sent eight or nine spiritual letters to Zheng Fa in a row.
"Something has changed in the Tianhe Sect. Sect Leader Yan suddenly dismissed all the disciples below the Divine Transformation level."
"The Tianhe Sect's territory seems to be blocked by a powerful being, and my Supreme Dao informant has lost contact."
"Luo Sanxian from Haori Mountain has left the mountain and seems to be heading towards the Hundred Immortals Alliance. Be careful!"
"..."
Seeing Master Mingde's reminder, Zheng Fa took a deep breath and understood something in his heart:
Although Jiuyou Demon Ancestor and the other man had been acting without anyone noticing, Shi Nandang had told him before that there were unusual movements in Taishang Dao and Tianhe Sect. It seemed that the five sects were scheming against each other and had spies buried among them, and they must have noticed something was amiss long ago.
Now that Sect Leader Yan was really going to take action, Tai Shang Dao and Hao Ri Shan actually discovered it first.
Even Hao Ri Mountain reacted very quickly. The Luo Sanxian who had participated in the previous Five Sects Dharma Assembly actually came directly to the Hundred Immortals Alliance - from this, it can be seen that Hao Ri Mountain's fear of Tianhe Sect is no less than that of Jiushan Sect.
Zheng Fa raised his eyes to look at Shi Nandang, and saw that he had a stunned expression and some grief and anger that he could not conceal.
Seeing Zheng Fa looking at him, Shi Nandang gave a bitter smile and lost his previous excitement. He just said, "We probably won't get the credit for this."
Others didn't understand, but Zheng Fa did.
This Luo Sanxian probably came here for the Xianjian Sword.
Seeing Shi Nandang's dejected face as someone else stole his credit, Zheng Fa felt that Shi Nandang's blessing had come - Luo Sanxian was obviously here to take the blame for him!
Not to mention, the high-level officials of Hao Ri Mountain are all very considerate.
