Chapter 563 - 850

His eyes moved freely among these light balls.

There are indeed many treasures in the ball of light, but they may not be useful to him.

It would be unwise to be greedy and get involved in unnecessary fights for treasures.

"There is a red light, it is the blood essence of the Styx."

Zizai's eyes flashed, and he discovered that one of the light balls contained red light, so he immediately chased after it.

He looked around and found that three people had also chosen this ball of light.

When the three of them saw it was him, their faces changed slightly.

One of the middle-aged monks, who was wearing the Taoist robe of Tianfu Fazong, hesitated for a few breaths and immediately chose to withdraw to compete for other light balls.

But the pink-robed female cultivator and the blue-robed old man still chose to compete with him.

whoosh!

The ball of light shot out and soon reached the range of the third ring death zone.

The three of them chased after him.

He freely urged the blood cloud and suddenly used the Blood Demon's Great Sky Escape.

The speed increased dramatically in the blink of an eye.

The blood-red cloud's big hand suddenly grabbed, almost catching the ball of light.

Upon seeing this, the pink-clothed female cultivator immediately threw out a colorful veil. The veil expanded rapidly as soon as it appeared, and was surrounded by pink mist, which seemed to contain a deadly poison.

The old man in blue robe shot out a water-blue sapphire mirror, which emitted layers of blue light, and Zizai's figure was immediately greatly delayed!

It was obvious that I could grab the ball of light with just a stretch of my hand, but the short distance felt like an insurmountable chasm.

The two of them did not communicate with each other, but when they saw that Zizai had the upper hand, they immediately attacked at the same time!

"snort!"

Zizai sneered, and Qiankun City suddenly appeared, expanding countless times.

Two sub-spiritual weapons flew out immediately, namely the Chaos Fire Ring and the Heavy Sky Peak.

Purple-red flames spurted out from the ring of fire, covering it with colorful gauze.

Wherever the Netherworld Fire passed, the pink mist was immediately burned away, and faint screams could be heard from it.

It turned out not to be poisonous fog, but a cloud of poisonous insects that were difficult to see with the naked eye!

Even the pink veil was burned by the Netherworld Fire, with large areas of it scorched.

The pink-clothed female cultivator screamed and quickly retracted the veil.

After Chongtian Peak fell towards the aquamarine mirror, it blocked the aquamarine light on the spot.

As soon as it was touched, a crisp shattering sound was heard from the latter, and the lens fell to the ground.

The old man in blue robe took back the aquamarine mirror with a look of pain on his face, and the look he gave Zizai became extremely frightened.

Without waiting for Zizai to continue using his methods, the two of them immediately retreated and quickly left at the same time.

No one dared to fight for it, so the ball of light was naturally taken into Zizai's pocket.

Through the dark river water, one can barely see that there is a piece of Styx blood essence.

It must have been refining at the bottom of the river for many years, and was only now swept out by the river water and splashed out.

The battle between the three of them lasted only two or three rounds and was over in a flash.

But it was also noticed by many people.

Many cultivators in the early stage of out-of-body state were shocked when they saw this, and immediately raised the threat level of Chu Xuan in their minds.

He thought to himself that he would never compete with Chu Xuan for the treasure.

Even those out-of-body cultivators who came from Zhenshan Sect and Lihuo Valley to the nearby star field and wanted to chase Zizai and seize the Styx Blood Essence, restrained their thoughts after seeing this.

A tragic victory after a fierce battle and an easy victory in two or three rounds are completely different concepts.

Just from this one battle, Zizai immediately gained fame.

The cultivators in the early stage of out-of-body experience did not dare to stroke his tiger whiskers.

He looked up at the sky and immediately chased after the remaining light balls.

The Styx Blood Essence he was chasing was not the most valuable treasure.

Therefore, the realms of the cultivators who competed with him were not high, and most of them were in the early stage of out-of-body experience.

Zizai attacked again and easily took two pieces of Styx blood essence, both of which were as big as a human brain.

It is as big as the Styx Blood Essence obtained from Dong Taicheng's Qiankun Bag before.

If it is refined into the Blood Demon Pot again over time, it will definitely help to improve its quality and make the blood cloud grow stronger again.

Moreover, the blood essence of the Styx is a rare and precious item. If more blood essence of the Styx is refined into the Blood Demon Pot, the blood cloud may also undergo various strange changes.

Soon, all the big light groups were captured.

Only some small light balls flew at extremely high speeds and fell outside the second-ring death zone, and then fell into the third-ring death zone and the fourth-ring death zone.

It is obtained by those extremely lucky cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, Nascent Soul stage, or even lower levels.

Zizai exhaled lightly and returned to the piece of star fragment where he had been sitting cross-legged.

The same is true for the other out-of-body cultivators.

However, the number of people was obviously smaller, and it was obvious that some people had dropped out.

Perhaps he was seriously injured while fighting for the treasure and had to withdraw.

Or maybe he was killed on the spot and died.

In any case, this round of fighting is over.

"There really is dark energy in my body, and it accumulates more and more over time."

"We must leave the deadly zone before we can gradually resolve it."

Calm down and feel your own situation, deep in thought.

At this time, a figure dressed in black and red Taoist robes suddenly flew over and stopped hundreds of feet away from Zizai.

This person's realm is not high, and one can tell at a glance that he is in the early stage of out-of-body experience.

He said calmly, "We need Styx Blood Essence, are you willing to trade?"

"Who are you?" Zizai asked calmly.

He pointed to the figure sitting cross-legged on the star fragments thousands of feet behind him.

When Zizai looked over, it was Tian Liyuan, the person Shangguan Youlian had specifically asked him to be careful of.

Zizai said calmly, "What's the price?"

He held up five fingers and said, "For each piece of Styx Blood Essence you obtained, you will receive five thousand Great Spiritual Stones."

Zizai frowned.

The blood essence of the Styx is extremely rare in the world. If the ancient Styx had not appeared this time, it would be impossible to have more blood essence of the Styx in a thousand years.

Five thousand great spirit stones are only enough to buy an ordinary mid-grade spirit weapon, how can you afford a piece of Styx Blood Essence?

What's more, the three pieces of Styx blood essence he obtained were the size of a human head.

In addition, the density of Styx blood essence is extremely high.

Such a big piece must weigh at least a thousand pounds.

The other party was only willing to offer five thousand large spirit stones, and it was obvious that he was trying to force the purchase.

Zizai shook his head, "Not for sale."

The man sneered, "Okay, just wait and see. The price won't be the same after a while."

After saying that, he turned and left.

There is no intention of raising prices at all.

Tian Liyuan in the distance seemed to sense something and glanced at Zizai with a cold look in his eyes.

The range of the second ring death zone is not large, and the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator who has left the body can easily cover it.

What happened here was naturally seen by others.

Mu Qingfeng, Song Zhenlin, Shangguan Youlian and others all changed color slightly.

They obviously didn't expect that Tian Liyuan would directly target Chu Xuan.

In this case, Chu Xuan might be in trouble next.

Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun are already in the middle stage of the out-of-body experience, and they have several people in the early stage of the out-of-body experience who are dependent on them.

It is an extremely powerful force here.

If it weren't for the presence of those Lianxu Daojuns, I'm afraid they would have started a killing spree and forced everyone away from here long ago.

Within a deadly circle.

The five Lianxu Daojuns each occupied one side, closing their eyes and pretending to be asleep.

The dark and cold ancient Hades River almost flowed past them.

But all five of them looked normal.

At this moment, Yaoguang Daojun suddenly raised his eyes and said with a strange smile, "Yuwen Chi, those alien beings from the Shura Star Region have set their sights on Chu Xuan of your Jiuyou Palace. Are you going to say something?"

Lord Yuwen Chi of the Underworld didn't even raise his eyes, but said calmly, "He doesn't want to return. He is no longer a member of my Nine Nether Palace."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Master Yaoguang's smile widened.

"I heard that Chu Xuan is very powerful. When he first came to the Dark Realm, he forced Mu Qingfeng to retreat with just one sentence, and killed two out-of-body cultivators in just three or two rounds."

"The out-of-body beings who were killed were one from my Yaoguang Cave Heaven and one from the Qingxie Merchant Alliance."

"Of course, these two decided to leave their respective sects after the Nether Mist Disaster, so they can no longer be considered ours."

"Even so, it is enough to show that Chu Xuan is quite powerful. Looking at the middle stage of the Out-of-Body Realm, he can be considered a mainstay."

"I heard that your Jiuyou Palace has formed an alliance with Chu Xuan's Xuanmiao Tianzong?"

Yaoguang Daojun smiled, "Even if he's not from your Jiuyou Palace, he's still an ally. Are you just going to watch him get besieged?"

Ming Daojun's expression remained calm. "A so-called alliance can only be formed between two parties of equal status."

"The status of the Jiuyou Palace and the Xuanmiao Tianzong is not equal. The reason they established the alliance is just to share what they have."

"Yaoguang, instead of worrying about my Jiuyou Palace, why not think about how your Yaoguang Cave Heaven can get a share of the profits."

"In the previous round of fighting, one of your Yaoguang Cave Heaven members was seriously injured and had to withdraw."

Yaoguang Daojun laughed strangely, "There's no need for Ming Daojun to worry about this."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the side below.

"Those outsiders like Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun are definitely not easy to deal with."

"Since there's nothing to do, why don't we make a bet and see if this Henry Chu can leave safely?"

The speaker was a fat man with a big belly and luxurious golden clothes.

This person is the Lianxu ancestor of the Qingxie Merchant Alliance, Changqing Daojun.

He said carelessly, "I bet this kid can get away alive, but he'll probably be a little injured."

As he spoke, he threw out a ball of light and said, "This Du'e Pill I got earlier can be used as a bet."

Yaoguang Daojun's eyes flashed, "The Deliverance Pill can ensure that your soul can travel safely through the void. Are you sure you want to use it as a bet?"

The greatest characteristic of a cultivator who practices the Refining Void stage is his "transformation from an infant to a sense of emptiness".

The so-called infant transformation and sense of emptiness means that the Nascent Soul has become empty, and the cultivators of the Void Refinement will therefore instinctively sense the existence of the void.

When one reaches the level of a Void Refining cultivator, improving one's realm is no longer a matter of mechanically accumulating spiritual power.

It also requires an understanding of the Five Elements and the principles of heaven and earth in order to improve your realm.

The great principles of this world are almost all hidden by appearances.

Even if the soul leaves the body, it only reveals the first layer of the surface.

There is a second floor, a third floor, a fourth floor below...

But if you can escape your primordial spirit into the void, you can bypass these layers of appearances and truly reach the essence.

The efficiency of understanding the Tao will be greatly improved.

But there are dangers in the void.

The True Lord Lianxu has the power to destroy stars with just a wave of his hand, but his soul in the void is as weak as a chick.

Hence the need for shelter.

The Deliverance Pill is one of the means to protect the primordial spirit in the void.

It is said that during the ancient golden age, there were more than fifty kinds of recipes for the elixir of salvation.

But by now, only one in ten of the materials needed to refine the Deliverance Pill remains.

Even many of the elixir recipes were lost.

Only the six sects of the Tiandao Immortal Alliance control those blessed places that can cultivate the materials for refining the Deliverance Pill.

Nowadays, most of the salvation pills obtained by the cultivators in the realm of emptiness come from the gifts of the six sects of the Immortal Alliance.

This is also the reason why the cultivators of the Lianxu realm have to guard Xuling Mountain.

The ascending channel is completely controlled by the Tiandao Immortal Alliance.

You have to go even if you don't want to.

It is precisely for this reason that the Deliverance Pill that was unearthed from the ancient Styx is valued by the five Lianxu Daojun present.

Such a bottle of Deliverance Pill might be their chance to step into the middle stage of Refining Void!

Taoist Changqing smiled slyly, "The bottle of Deliverance Pills that we just unearthed from the bottom of the ancient Styx contains exactly five pills. We five can each get one, but I don't think it's enough. I want the Deliverance Pills in your hands."

"But you know me. I don't like fighting and killing. So, who wants to bet with me?"

"If I lose, this Deliverance Pill will be yours!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Taoist Master Shenfu and Taoist Master Shushan changed several times, and they were moved.

But after thinking for a long time, he suppressed his thoughts.

Such a bet is too risky.

Daoist Master Yaoguang gritted his teeth, seemingly having a mental struggle. After a while, he said, "I'm making a bet with you. I bet this kid can't leave safely."

As she spoke, she also threw out a ball of light.

Among them was a Du'e Pill.

Taoist Changqing chuckled, "Alright, alright! I hope the three of you can be witnesses! Whoever loses the bet must accept the loss."

"I don't want anyone to cheat."

Lord Ming Dao, Lord Shen Fu Dao, and Lord Shu Shan Dao all nodded slightly, becoming witnesses.

…

In the second ring of death.

There was a figure sitting quietly, never very noticeable.

His name is Chu Jie, and he is a fallen cultivator who has left the body of Taiyin Tower.

Not long ago, he wanted to carry out the order from his superiors and take back the blood essence of the Styx from Chu Xuan.

But he was tricked by Chu Xuan and An Mingrong.

Even the clone was destroyed.

After that, he was reprimanded by his superiors and ordered to guard another stronghold.

It was also because of this incident that he luckily escaped the destruction of the Xuanyin branch of the Taiyin Tower by the Kunlun Sword Sect.

Now that the ancient Styx has appeared for the third time, he was sent here by his superiors to investigate first because he was familiar with the situation in the nearby star field.

"Chu Xuan..."

"It was so difficult for me to refine an avatar, yet you guys combined to destroy it!"

"Just wait, in a few days it will be the anniversary of your death."

"After I kill you, I'll go and kill that bitch An Mingrong!"

Chu Jie's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

After losing his clone, his strength was greatly reduced and his status in the Taiyin Tower plummeted.

He will take revenge a thousand fold for all the ridicule he has endured during this period!

…

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

The ancient Hades River surged violently again.

Countless tiny water droplets splashed in all directions.

The group of out-of-body monks who were pretending to be asleep with their eyes closed were suddenly alerted and quickly opened their eyes, ready to go.

Zizai also opened his eyes and looked at those balls of light.

Crash.

The river water overflowed, and more than twenty balls of light flew out of the river.

This time there are obviously fewer light clusters than last time.

Even the size is far inferior to last time.

Zizai still only focused on attacking the blood essence of the Styx.

Because of his considerable strength, few people in the early stage of out-of-body state dared to compete with him.

But it is obvious that there are many people who have the same idea.

When Zizai reached out to grab the blood essence of the Styx, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if someone was attacking him from behind.

He frowned and used the Blood Demon's Great Sky Escape to dodge immediately.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared a hundred feet away.

A sharp flying knife was clearly nailed to the spot.

The blade of the flying knife was blue, obviously it had been poisoned in advance.

If he had reacted a little slower, the poisoned flying knife would have pierced his body.

"The response is quite fast, it really lives up to its reputation."

A calm voice sounded.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of flying knives came straight at his face!

Friendly reminder: The website is about to be redesigned, which may cause the loss of reading progress. Please save your "Bookshelf" and "Reading History" in time (screenshots are recommended). We apologize for the inconvenience!

As soon as Zizai thought about it, Qiankun City flew out immediately.

The man in black laughed strangely, "I saw you in action from afar before. Your spiritual weapon is indeed powerful, but it only has two functions."

"I have countless flying knives, and they are all tempered with Heavenly Pattern Iron, so they are extremely hard. I want to see how you can deal with them!"

The next moment, hundreds of flying swords suddenly flew out of Qiankun City.

Each of these flying swords has a different shape.

They were all thrown into the Nine Yang Golden Cauldron by Chu Xuan and refined.

Each one is a low-grade spiritual weapon.

After all, Chu Xuan has made great achievements in the art of weapons, and he can guarantee the success rate even if he just refines it casually.

Whoosh whoosh!

Hundreds of flying swords broke through the air, creating bursts of air-breaking sounds.

All I heard was a series of clang-dang-dang sounds.

All those flying knives were cut down by flying swords.

For a moment, no flying knife could get within a hundred feet of Zizai.

The man in black looked grim.

He had been observing in secret since Zizai began to display his strength.

I thought that the other party was a soft persimmon in the middle stage of out-of-body state, and someone who could be manipulated.

In the end, he still underestimated the opponent's strength.

What the hell is that small town's spiritual weapon?

Not only can it spit fire and smash mountains, but now it can also shoot flying swords?

He had lived for so long, but he had never encountered such a strange yet powerful spiritual weapon.

In the blink of an eye, all the flying knives were picked up by the flying swords, and most of them were severely damaged.

But only a few flying swords were damaged.

"Are you still going to take action?"

He looked at the man in black with disdain and said calmly.

The man in black sneered, "It's not over yet!"

He clapped his hands violently, and spiritual power gushed out. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a biting cold wind that howled towards him.

The cold wind came very quickly.

The previous breath was still in the same place, and the next breath had already enveloped him in freedom.

Zizai frowned slightly and immediately activated his spiritual power shield to resist.

But with every whirl and whistle of the biting wind, a biting chill seeped in.

It made Zizai feel chilled to the bone.

Zizai immediately shouted, "Nine Heavens Gale!"

The vast wind spiritual power in his body surged out, forming a violent gust of wind.

Two wind-attribute forces, one black and one white, collided in mid-air and impacted violently.

The man in black laughed strangely, "So you're also practicing wind-attributed techniques! Let's see, which is stronger, your technique or my spiritual power?"

He growled, and the spiritual power in his body surged again, disappearing into the biting cold wind.

In an instant, the biting cold wind grew stronger and stronger, threatening to completely engulf Zizai.

Zizai also unleashed a tremendous amount of spiritual power, injecting it into the Nine Heavens Gale.

The two fought each other again.

After several rounds, the man in black looked obviously ugly.

He found that he was at a disadvantage!

The other party's spiritual power is so profound that it is even stronger than his!

Bang!

The two forces collided violently, eventually making a sharp explosion.

The man in black was knocked hundreds of feet away, with blood flowing from his mouth.

But Zizai only retreated a few dozen feet.

The strength of both sides is immediately apparent.

The man in black wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Chu Xuan, you are very powerful. My name is Yun Teng! I am a cultivator from the Vulcan Valley!"

"I won't fight you anymore. I'll give you that piece of Styx Blood Essence!"

After saying that, he laughed loudly, turned around and left.

Zizai just watched Yun Teng leave and did not chase after him.

After seeing that Yun Teng had indeed gone far away, he turned around and took the Styx Blood Essence.

The two sides had just fought only to compete for the blood essence of the Styx, not for a life-and-death feud.

The winner is now decided, and both sides realize that they cannot defeat the other quickly.

In this case, it is better to let go early. There is no need to create grudges.

Anyway, the ancient Styx will continue to surge, bringing out more ancient treasures from the bottom of the river.

It is unwise to fight to the death for a piece of Styx blood essence.

"That person is a cultivator from the Fire Valley from outside, right? He is also in the middle stage of Out-of-Body Realm, and he actually lost to Chu Xuan!"

"It seems that Chu Xuan's strength is really good, far more than what he appears to be."

"I've fought Yun Teng before, and he stole a bottle of elixir from me... It seems I'm no match for Henry Chu..."

The other cultivators also saw the fight here, and they felt a little more afraid of Chu Xuan.

Even a few cultivators in the middle stage of the out-of-body realm no longer dare to underestimate Chu Xuan.

"If my real body were here, I could easily sweep away Yun Teng. What a pity..." Zizai sighed, collected the Styx blood essence, and went to chase the rest of the light balls.

Not far away, Tian Liyuan, who had just collected a ball of light, also glanced over here, as if thinking about something.

"Boss... this kid is quite powerful. Should we still deal with him?"

The cultivator who had come before came to Tian Liyuan with an ugly look on his face.

Tian Liyuan said calmly, "No matter how strong he is, can he be better than us?"

"Besides, his strength is actually a good thing."

The monk was stunned. "Boss, what do you mean?"

Tian Liyuan said calmly, "If he is strong, he will be able to seize more Styx Blood Essence, and then we can take it all in one go, saving us from wasting energy."

The monk suddenly understood and quickly gave a thumbs up, "The boss is the boss!"

Tian Liyuan sat down cross-legged, his eyes looking out of the dead zone, his mind thoughtful, "They haven't come yet... If they haven't come yet, there's no need to cooperate anymore..."

…

Time passes day by day.

The ancient Hades River would surge every few days, rolling out ancient treasures from the riverbed, without exception.

This situation seems to be continuing forever.

If this is true, this place will definitely become a secret place.

Moreover, this place is only invaded by the dark energy, and there is no other threat.

There is no need to be on guard against monsters that may jump out of the darkness at all times like in other secret realms.

Every cultivator in the nearby star field can come here to make a fortune.

Maybe you can become successful in one day.

The news of the long-term appearance of the ancient Hades River spread more and more widely.

So much so that monks from the surrounding star fields also rushed over.

Even if it means crossing the wild star field, we must get a piece of the pie.

This will only add fuel to the chaotic situation along the Ancient Styx River.

Righteous path, evil path, and fallen cultivation...

Sect monks, independent cultivators...

Local monks, monks from other places...

It is truly a gathering of great people to participate in this grand event.

Xuanmiao Tianzong is close to the ancient Ming River, so it was inevitably affected.

However, under Chu Xuan's strong order, Xuanmiao Tianzong always kept half of its strength guarding the mountain gate and never sent out all its forces.

Even if someone wants to disrupt the Dark Domain, they still have no place to start.

This situation lasted for half a year.

Almost everyone regarded the long-term appearance of the ancient Styx as normal.

The free demon body always stays here.

However, every ten days, he would leave the Second Ring Death Zone and use his spiritual power to speed up the removal of the dark energy in his body.

After a day or two, you will return to the second ring of death.

As a result, his Qiankun bag has accumulated more than twenty amounts of Styx blood essence the size of a human brain!

If so much blood essence of the Styx is fully refined into the Blood Demon Pot, it will definitely bring incredible changes to it!

On this day, Zizai came to the piece of star fragment as usual and sat cross-legged, waiting for the ancient Styx to surge.

The same was true for the other monks.

But this time, everyone felt something was wrong.

Because the ancient Hades River never surged on that day, and remained calm.

"Logically speaking, it should surge at most once every five days. What happened today?" Shangguan Youlian frowned.

At this moment, someone suddenly noticed the changes in the ancient Hades River and screamed.

"The water level has dropped! Compared to before, the water level has dropped a lot!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other out-of-body cultivators also turned their eyes.

After a closer look, everyone was shocked.

The water level of this ancient river flowing through time has actually dropped?

Zizai also noticed the changes here and frowned slightly.

Without any hesitation, he immediately used the escape technique and turned around and left.

There were several people who shared the same idea as him.

They all turned around and left without thinking.

However, a huge pressure came down from the sky.

This heavy force covers every inch of space, making people feel as if they are carrying a mountain and cannot take a single step forward.

Zizai subconsciously looked up.

I discovered that the dark and cold river water was suspended in the air, flowing towards the distance.

And in the distance, a small blue bowl was floating.

Such a huge amount of river water was actually swallowed up by the small bowl.

The immense pressure that exists in every inch of space here, I don't know whether it is brought by the small bowl or the mighty river water.

The others also noticed this situation and their eyes widened in shock.

They had been here for a long time, so they naturally recognized it a long time ago.

That is clearly the water from the ancient Styx!

Who is it that wants to take the water of the Ancient Styx for himself?!

An even more terrifying thought arose in everyone's mind.

What level of power can accomplish such a grand feat?

At this moment, a big hand suddenly appeared above the small blue bowl and grabbed it.

The huge hand was so huge that it seemed as if it could grasp the vast galaxy with one hand.

Compared with it, all living things are as tiny as ants.

Every line and every wrinkle on the big hand can be seen clearly, every detail is visible.

It seems as if countless years of vicissitudes of life have been accumulated in it.

All the cultivators, including Zizai, felt like a small boat in the raging sea.

It could be easily annihilated by this big hand at any time.

The small blue bowl was hit by the big hand, and immediately a sharp whine was heard.

The water of the Ancient Underworld River was suddenly stagnant as it was being collected.

Such a huge amount of river water was suspended in the sea of ​​stars, motionless.

All the monks held their breath and dared not utter a word.

They knew very well that there must be two powerful men fighting each other right now.

Their life and death depend on the thoughts of these two powerful men.

Perhaps the aftermath of just one move is enough to shatter them into pieces.

A cold voice suddenly sounded, "Wuqiu, it is you."

As soon as this sound appeared, it made many people feel uncomfortable.

The words were obviously normal, but it felt like I was hearing the most evil and filthy words in the world.

Soon, they felt as if there was something extra in their ears.

It felt like there were some little bugs crawling inside.

People subconsciously reached into their ears and pulled out all kinds of poisonous insects.

Without exception, these poisonous insects are ferocious, ugly and extremely bloodthirsty.

He wished he could eat the person up completely.

Those cultivators of lower realms bled from all seven orifices and died instantly.

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of monks died!

One word and hundreds of insects come to life!

One word and thousands of people die!

Such means are far beyond what the Taoist Master Lianxu can do!

Zizai's expression changed slightly and he immediately covered his ears.

At the same time, he released layers of spiritual power, looked inward, and killed these poisonous insects that appeared out of nothing as quickly as possible.

After all, the out-of-body cultivators are far superior to those in the Nascent Soul and Golden Core stages. None of the out-of-body cultivators in the second-ring death zone fell.

But they are all busy dealing with the poisonous insects in their bodies.

A childish voice like that of a child sounded softly.

"Taiyin, you are still greedy after all and come to take the ancient Styx."

The sound makes people feel like a spring breeze or the warm sunshine in winter.

As soon as it appeared, it made everyone who heard the sound feel relieved.

Many people also immediately felt that the poisonous insects that had drilled deep into their bodies were killed in an instant.

It seems that this is the power brought by this sound.

A cold voice said, "It seems you have been waiting here for a long time. It is truly an honor for you, the Immortal Alliance Celestial Lord, to have waited for me for so long!"

"But do you think you can keep me?"

The words fell.

There were billions of ghosts running in all directions.

He rushed directly into the group of monks who were gathered in a death zone.

Some ghost shadows rushed straight into the bodies of the monks, and the latter did not even have time to react. In a few blinks of an eye, they turned into bloodthirsty monsters, killing anyone they saw.

Some ghosts emit sharp screams, the sound of which is enough to give cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage a splitting headache, as if the devil's voice is piercing their ears.

It also feels like all kinds of insects are trying desperately to get into my head.

All the out-of-body cultivators in the second ring death zone also felt this excruciating pain.

But they couldn't even walk away.

Because the huge pressure still suppressed every inch of space, making them unable to move forward or backward.

The childish voice said calmly, "If I don't let you go, you can't leave."

As soon as the words fell, blazing starlight suddenly burst out, like the divine light blooming from the explosion of a star.

Wherever it passed, ghosts screamed and turned into ashes.

But the monk was not hurt at all.

At the same time, a breeze-like force swept past.

The mountain-like pressure immediately disappeared without a trace.

All the monks did not think twice and used all their strength to escape from the dead zone.

This place has become a battleground for two powerful men.

If he doesn't escape now, he will surely die in the aftermath of the fight.

He stepped freely in the air, as if turning into a gust of wind, rushing in front of everyone.

The martial arts he mainly practices is the wind-attributed "Gangtian Xuanji Baolu", and he is particularly good at escape techniques.

After rushing out of the deadly area in one breath, he looked back and saw two forces fighting each other above the ancient Styx River.

The power on the left is cold and icy, and is purple-black in color.

The power on the right is neutral and peaceful, and appears icy white.

The two forces intertwined and collided, as if they had vitality.

The two forces were so powerful that they enveloped an area of ​​millions of miles.

Xuanyin Star Domain, Tianfu Star Domain, Yaoguang Star Domain, Qingxie Star Domain, Wuya Star Domain, Chen'an Domain... Every cultivator in each place can see this shocking scene.

And this is probably the result of the two powerful men controlling their power.

Amidst the constant collision and annihilation of the two forces, countless human figures could be seen flashing.

What is even more frightening is that the fight between these two powerful men seems to contain countless truths of heaven and earth, which makes people want to sink into it and spend their entire lives to comprehend it.

"If I hear the truth in the morning, I would be willing to die in the evening...!"

The two monks who had reached the state of out-of-body experience suddenly knelt down in the direction of the Ancient Styx, laughing loudly, with tears of blood flowing from their eyes.

Others wanted to pull them up, but found that after only a few breaths, the two men were already dead!

Shangguan Youlian's scalp tingled upon seeing this. "It's a fight between two Heavenly Lords who have transcended tribulation! Only a battle at the Heavenly Lord level would contain the power of the Great Dao in every move!"

Li Lingshu shouted, "Retract your gaze and stop watching the Tianzun fight!"

All the monks who had achieved the state of out-of-body experience were shocked and turned their backs away, not daring to look again.

The ultimate truth of heaven and earth and the power of the great way are undoubtedly the lifelong pursuits of cultivators.

But with their current abilities, they are not qualified to feel and understand.

Trying to comprehend the great Dao with the foundation of a cultivator who has attained the state of out-of-body experience will only lead to death the next day!

Zizai also turned around and flew out immediately.

He almost got caught in it just now.

Just at this moment, the voice of the young child was heard again in the sky.

"I have killed all your clones."

"You can't just take away the tributaries of the Ancient Styx River if you want."

The starlight gushed out again, instantly drowning the gloomy energy in the sky.

At first glance, it seemed that "Taiyin" had lost the power to fight back.

The battle between the two Heavenly Lords may be about to end.

But just then.

Several extremely thick aerial roots suddenly stretched out from the ancient Styx and slammed towards the starry sky.

It was like an ancient snake that crawled out from the long river of time, with the innate mission of destroying everything!

"Oh my god, what is that...what on earth is that?"

Some of them left their bodies and looked back, and were terrified at the sight of such a horrifying scene.

What kind of creature is that?

A single aerial root is enough to cross the galaxy!

When Zizai saw this scene, he was also shocked.

His soul was separated from his original body, so he naturally knew what his original body had experienced.

Although this aerial root was countless times larger, he still recognized it at a glance.

This is the aerial root of the gluttonous tree!

As expected.

The next moment, a gigantic tree rose into the sky from the ancient Styx.

The giant tree was twisted and strange, and completely black.

Its trunk, branches, and leaves all carry the desire to devour everything.

It's like a gluttonous beast that can never be satisfied.

The cold voice laughed out loud, "Wuqiu, this is a great gift I've been preparing for you for a long time!"

"This gluttonous tree species is one of the first few species, and the aura contained in it is the most intense."

"Once it absorbs enough power and grows up, its power will be extremely terrifying."

"I want to see how the Immortal Lord will deal with such a greedy tree that is comparable to the Heavenly Lord!"

"You've been waiting for me here for so long, so I'm just playing along."

A muffled groan was heard amidst the starlight.

It was obvious that it was severely injured by the sudden attack of the Greedy Tree.

Perhaps even he did not expect that the other party had already guessed the possible danger and prepared the first gluttonous tree species early on.

Bang bang bang!

The remaining aerial roots of the gluttonous tree attacked everything around them aimlessly.

Rumble!

The surroundings suddenly began to shake violently.

With the Ancient Styx as the center, the star fragments close to the Ancient Styx immediately began to shatter.

The dark and cold river water seemed to have no restraints and began to rush in all directions!

All the monks' expressions changed drastically, and they increased their speed to fly outwards.

Such a huge amount of river water is rushing in. Once you are swept away by it, your soul will surely return to the ancient Hades River.

Even if they have reached the state of out-of-body cultivation, they cannot resist for long.

As he was flying freely in the air, he heard a scream from the side below.

He looked to the left and saw that the pink-clothed female cultivator was just submerged by the large amount of ancient Styx water that fell from the sky.

At first, I could barely resist.

But its speed has been greatly reduced.

One step slow, every step slow.

In the blink of an eye, more water from the ancient Hades River rushed over and swept it away.

After a while, the man's voice could no longer be heard.

A dignified out-of-body cultivator, an ancestor of a sixth-level cultivation sect, was swept into the ancient Styx River and disappeared without a trace, without even a ripple.

The other monks who had left their bodies were even more horrified when they saw this and hurried to hide.

Only those few demons from the Shura star region, who knew what strange treasures they had, could actually divert the surrounding river water.

So it was not slowed down by the river water.

Not only did they not take the initiative to avoid the water of the Ancient Styx, but they took advantage of the moment when everyone was fleeing to attack from behind!

Tian Liyuan said calmly, "I'll leave these small fish and shrimps to you, and we'll go after Henry Chu."

"Yes, Boss!"

Tian Liyuan, Tian Zhenkun and others looked at each other and went straight to Zizai.

At this moment, Zizai immediately felt as if he was being stared at by two hungry wolves.

He looked back and saw that it was Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun chasing him closely.

These two people were obviously after the Styx blood essence in his body.

Seeing this, the surrounding out-of-body monks all avoided it, fearing that they would be implicated.

"The demons of the Shura Star Region have indeed been prepared for a long time. They are not afraid of the ancient Styx water at all."

"Chu Xuan is finished, no one can save him."

"With so much Stygian Blood Essence, it's a crime to possess such a treasure... He should have sold the Stygian Blood Essence at a low price in the first place, just as a favor to these demons."

The monks who had reached the state of out-of-body experience had their own thoughts and shook their heads repeatedly.

Shangguan Youlian bit her lip and finally shook her head.

She was only at the second level of the Out-of-Body Realm, and was no match for either Tian Liyuan or Tian Zhenkun, so naturally she couldn't help Chu Xuan either.

"Soul-Destroying Lock, go!"

Tian Zhenkun let out a low shout, and the chains wrapped around his body suddenly flew out and headed straight for Zizai.

Tian Liyuan activated the Blood-Crying Knife, continuously slashing out huge blood-red blade beams.

The Soul-Destroying Lock flew at an extremely fast speed, constantly narrowing the distance between it and Zizai.

In addition, the blood-colored blade light was looming over him, and Zizai had to move again and again, which also affected his speed.

If we continue at this trend, we will definitely be entangled.

As Zizai thought about it, a huge gourd suddenly flew out from Qiankun City.

There was a loud bang.

Immediately, a violent stream of water gushed out of it.

In an instant, a wall of water was formed.

Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun had never expected such a method to exist, and were caught off guard and were contaminated by part of the water flow.

Their speed suddenly slowed down.

"Drowning Spirit Water! Damn it, this kid actually has such a method?" Tian Liyuan cursed inwardly.

Some time ago, he had already memorized all the methods that Henry Chu mastered.

Logically speaking, the spiritual weapon in that small town only has three levels of power.

Why is there another method now?

Tian Zhenkun said in a deep voice, "He wants to escape back to the Dark Realm. We must rely on the Mountain Gate Formation to resist him and use the Strange Wind Leaf to prevent him from escaping."

Tian Liyuan nodded immediately and pulled out a leaf.

The leaves are ice white all over, with black veins growing on the surface.

It looks like a palm-leaf fan and is about the size of a human face.

Tian Liyuan injected spiritual power into it, and the so-called Qifeng Leaf immediately began to flow with power.

A strange gust of wind suddenly wrapped around the feet of the two people.

Their speed increased dramatically immediately!

The distance that Zizai had just opened up with the help of the Drowning Spirit Water was shortened again!

Zizai frowned deeply and immediately urged the Water-covering Gourd to spray out more Drowning Spirit Water.

Tian Liyuan and the other two immediately used their spiritual weapons to resist, sneering at the same time, "I want to see how much more drowning spiritual water you can spray out!"

The distance between the two sides is shrinking.

From the perspective of outsiders, it might not be long before Chu Xuan will be surrounded by Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun!

Zizai, however, just passively used his spiritual weapon to resist and continued to fly towards the dark domain.

It seems that there are no other means left and I have run out of tricks.

At this moment, a blaze of fire suddenly blew from the side below.

In the raging fire, several talismans exploded immediately.

The fierce flames and violent explosions immediately slightly slowed down the progress of Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun.

The two of them showed cold expressions and immediately looked in the direction where the fire came from.

Then Mu Qingfeng was seen flying away at an extremely fast speed.

"I'll go kill him, you continue to chase Chu Xuan." Tian Zhenkun's eyes were gloomy, and he immediately wanted to turn around and chase Mu Qingfeng.

Tian Liyuan shook his head and said in a deep voice, "This Chu Xuan is quite powerful. I alone cannot kill him quickly. He will most likely escape back to the Dark Realm and rely on the Xuanmiao Tianzong Mountain Gate Formation to resist."

"If that happens, we will have wasted our time."

Tian Zhenkun looked at Mu Qingfeng's fleeing figure, his eyes filled with murderous intent, "But..."

Tian Liyuan shouted, "No buts, just listen to me!"

Tian Zhenkun gritted his teeth and said, "Okay...I'll listen to you."

The two of them created layers of green waves, blasted open the flames, and continued to chase Zizai.

Mu Qingfeng patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, he didn't come after me... I hope he can accept this favor..."

On the other side, the two sides continued to fly towards the dark area, one in front and one behind.

Large pieces of stardust gradually appeared directly ahead.

Stardust is actually the name for slightly smaller pieces of star debris.

There has never been a unified definition of what should be called stardust and what should be called star fragments.

But what is certain is that most of the stardust will be attracted and linger around the stars of cultivation.

The Dark Domain can gather star fragments to form a continent, and naturally it will also attract stardust.

In other words, Zizai is about to return to the Dark Realm.

"We're almost catching up, we can't let him go back!" Tian Zhenkun growled and used the Soul-Destroying Lock again.

The soul-destroying chain shot out like a giant python, heading straight for Zizai's back.

This time, Zizai was unable to dodge the Soul-Destroying Lock and was hit on the back.

With a muffled groan, he fell towards a huge piece of stardust.

In an instant, the stardust silently turned into countless fragments and flew in all directions.

Zizai's figure was also obscured at this moment.

Tian Liyuan frowned slightly.

How come he hit the opponent so easily this time?

He was about to speak when he saw Tian Zhenkun already showing a bloodthirsty and strange smile, flying into the air and rushing straight up.

Tian Liyuan shook his head and hurried to follow.

The next moment, he saw a white dragon claw suddenly rush out while the stardust blurred his vision!

The white dragon claws seemed particularly sharp.

If I look at it for one more moment, I feel like my eyes are being cut.

The sudden attack of the dragon claw caught both of them off guard.

Because Tian Zhenkun was chasing straight up, he was unable to use his escape technique again in a short period of time.

Its Soul-Destroying Lock had already flown out to attack Zizai's back, and had not yet been retracted.

Now faced with this sudden attack, he could only hastily use a small whale skin shield to block himself.

Although this small shield is rarely used in daily life, its material is taken from a giant whale in the early stage of out-of-body state, and is very tough.

Even if I can't stop the sudden attack of the dragon claw, I can at least reduce three or four points of its power, right?

It was at this moment.

The white dragon claw shot past like lightning.

The small whale skin shield broke silently, and it was cut into two pieces in an instant!

A white light flashed by.

Tian Zhenkun stood there in a daze, a red line suddenly appeared on his neck, then became thicker and thicker, and finally blood spurted out.

Its head shot up into the sky.

In an instant, his spiritual weapon was cut off and his head and body were separated!

Tian Liyuan was dumbfounded, "Quickly escape from your soul!"

A bright blue soul quickly rushed out of Tian Zhenkun's headless body and flew towards Tian Liyuan.

However, it had just flown out of its flesh body.

A huge and dark figure appeared right in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a Ghost King with four arms and four ghost weapons in his hands!

Sibi looked at Tian Zhenkun's soul and showed a simple smile.

Then...

The four ghost weapons in his hands whizzed down.

Boom boom boom!

In just a few breaths, Tian Zhenkun's soul was smashed beyond recognition.

Four Arms nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his left forearm, grabbed the soul, squeezed it, and threw it into his mouth.

Tian Liyuan looked around with a gloomy expression.

He noticed it.

I have been surrounded.

There seemed to be hidden threats behind the stardust around.

"Come out! Don't hide!"

Tian Liyuan raised the Blood-Crying Knife upside down and slashed at the nearby stardust, roaring.

These knife lights slashed on the stardust, exploding into clouds of dust.

Instead, it blinded his sight.

But at this moment, Tian Liyuan's eyes were shining, his hands were on his waist, as if he was accumulating something.

High place.

Chu Xuan looked down at the dust, with a slight smile on his face.

Tian Liyuan deliberately exploded the stardust to lure him into taking action.

If he thought he had seized the opportunity and really took action, he would immediately be met with the powerful attack that Tian Liyuan had been preparing for a long time.

He had used this method countless times when he was still a Qi-refining disciple of the Wuji Sect, and had killed countless righteous cultivators who were greedy for merit and reckless.

At this moment, he saw through it at a glance.

However, it is not impossible to take action.

Since the other party is like this, let's just take advantage of their strategy.

As soon as he thought about it, a huge corpse king accelerated and flew towards the dust.

When Tian Liyuan saw the black shadow flying towards him, he sneered and a red light suddenly flew out from his waist.

The black shadow was pierced through in an instant.

However, when he wanted to take back the Blood Shadow Mace, he found that it was controlled by a strange black light.

It has been impossible to recover it.

"My Blood Shadow Mace!"

Tian Liyuan was very anxious. He formed seals with his hands and used all his strength to pull it back.

It was at this moment when his attention was distracted.

Several dark shadows have surrounded them from all directions.

From this point on, there were no more surprises in the battle.

Tian Liyuan, who was surrounded from four directions by Chu Xuan, the Free Demon Body, Xiaohu, and the Four Arms, had no chance of survival.

Chu Xuan used the Great Soul Control Demon Eye to search the soul and took away the spirit, and found that Tian Liyuan and Taiyin Tower were very ambiguous, and it seemed that he accepted the benefits of Taiyin Tower to help them collect the blood essence of the Styx.

A moment later, he took away the two corpses and their Qiankun bags.

As early as when the free demon body flew towards the dark domain, the real body had already come out of retreat and kept using escape techniques to catch up.

This cluster of stardust was the burial place he had chosen for the two of them.

It turns out these two have some skills, but not much.

Henry Chu seemed to be thinking, "These two are quite interesting. They are actually the original body and the clone?"

"They publicly announced that they were sworn brothers, deliberately creating a sense of conflict. In reality, Tian Zhenkun was Tian Liyuan's clone."

"Tian Liyuan took advantage of this and tricked many demons."

"However, this clone is even more bloodthirsty and sometimes does not obey the original body's orders."

Henry Chu chuckled, retracted his thoughts, and looked at the sky in the distance.

The good news is that the clouds formed by these two forces are moving away.

The bad news is that the well-fed gluttonous tree is on a killing spree.

Many monks were controlled by the roots of the Greedy Tree and turned into wooden puppets, which began to attack the surviving monks.

"Isn't this just another form of disaster?"

Henry Chu shook his head slightly, turned around and left.

The free clone collected Xiaohu and Sibi and returned directly to the ancient Ming River.

Many disciples of Xuanmiao Tianzong are searching for treasures in the deadly place.

Now that the two great Heavenly Masters have suddenly clashed with each other, and the Greedy Tree is growing wildly, I'm afraid most of them have already been killed or injured.

But Xuanmiao Tianzong still has a need to exist.

So Chu Xuan planned to let his clone go again to see if he could rescue a few of the sect's Divine Transformation cultivators.

Moreover, many monks died from the Greedy Tree and the Ancient Styx River this time.

The remains of these monks were left there alone, and there was a high possibility that they would be taken over by the roots of the Greedy Tree and turned into wooden puppets.

Even if it is lucky enough not to be occupied, it is equivalent to being exposed in the wilderness.

Both outcomes are obviously very tragic.

As a person who has done great deeds, he should fulfill his duty as a practitioner of great deeds.

It would be fine if these monks died miserably, but at least they should die in peace.

…

In a deadly place.

When Zizai came here again, he saw chaos everywhere.

The star fragments shattered into countless stardust.

Some stardust hangs quietly, while others fly endlessly at high speeds.

Their power is no less than a full-strength attack from a mid-grade spiritual weapon.

If you don't react in time, you will probably be pierced through on the spot.

A large number of monks have turned into wooden puppets and are hunting and killing living people everywhere.

What surprised Zizai was that there were actually quite a few skilled and courageous monks who stayed in the deadly place to hunt down the wooden puppets.

Most of the people who dare to stay here at this time are fully confident in their own abilities.

Of course, it is also possible that, like Chu Xuan, the main body stays in a safe place and sends the clone to collect resources.

Moreover, because part of the water of the Ancient Styx was taken away by the Taiyin, a large number of treasures at the bottom of the river were thrown out.

Many people took risks and stayed here, gritting their teeth, hoping to get a few more treasures before leaving.

"Eat you!"

A wooden puppet in the Spirit Transformation Stage suddenly rushed towards Zizai.

Roots grew out of the membrane on his head, shoulders, abdomen, knees, etc.

The bark also turned into a brownish-brown color similar to that of trees, not the rosy white of a living person.

Zizai pointed his finger casually, and a strong wind broke through his body and hit the wooden puppet on the spot.

The main body had encountered the wooden puppet before in the Tianjin battlefield and had killed it before, and knew that there was a core inside the wooden puppet.

Therefore, the first blow from the Free Demon Body was fatal.

As for this magic spell, its name is "Wind Gang Finger", which is an out-of-body spell in "Gangtian Xuanji Baolu".

Almost every cultivator who practices this method will choose this spell when they reach this stage of practice.

It has strong penetrating power and extremely powerful point-to-point attack.

The more crucial point is that it is almost instantaneous and does not require any accumulation time.

For Zizai, this Wind Finger is an excellent way to deal with the weak.

One blow shattered the core of the wooden puppet, and the latter staggered a few steps and was about to fall down.

But before it fell, it was taken away by the Heavenly Corpse Tower.

Zizai did not stay for long and continued to move forward into the deadly place.

"So much debris... it's truly tragic to see so many bodies lying in the wilderness."

Zizai sighed lightly, and wherever he passed by, he would put the leftover corpses into the Heavenly Corpse Tower.

It also gives them a place to go.

Within a deadly circle.

At this moment, several Lianxu Daojuns were also mediating with a Lianxu wooden puppet.

The one who was taken advantage of and turned into a wooden puppet was none other than Shushan Daojun of the Wuya Academy.

He has bad luck.

First, he was hit by a large mass of ancient Styx water, and had to expend his spiritual energy to dissolve it.

Then the Gluttonous Tree rose from the ancient Styx.

Because Shushan Daojun was one step behind the others, he immediately became the target of the Greedy Tree.

This greedy tree swallowed up a large amount of water from the ancient Hades River, and its aerial roots could even harm the Heavenly Venerable who was transcending tribulation.

Shushan Daojun was just a cultivator of the Void Refinement Realm, so naturally he was unable to resist.

In just one round, Shushan Daojun was parasitized by the roots of the Greedy Tree.

Originally, the Greedy Tree wanted to attack other Void Refining cultivators.

But Wuqiu took action, forcing it to respond with all its strength.

This gave Lord Ming Dao, Lord Qingxie Dao, Lord Yaoguang Dao, and Lord Shenfu Dao a chance to catch their breath.

Because of his injury, Shenfu Daojun hesitated for a long time and finally chose to withdraw.

However, Lord Ming Dao, Lord Qingxie Dao, and Lord Yaoguang Dao chose to stay here and continue to search for the ancient treasures that were thrown out at the bottom of the river due to the fight between the powerful.

Shenfu Daojun is a little younger and still has time.

But they were running out of time.

In another five hundred years at most, they will all be recruited to guard Xu Ling Mountain one after another.

Before going to Xuling Mountain, if you don't have strong enough strength, there is a great possibility that you will die there.

Therefore, they are unwilling to miss any opportunity to improve their strength.

Taoist Qingxie dodged with a flash, his body seemed to shuttle through the void, and he nimbly avoided the attack of the wooden puppet.

His ever-dispersing spiritual consciousness now discovered something unusual and he couldn't help but laugh strangely, "Huh? That Chu Xuan, he's back alive."

"Hahaha, this kid was hunted by Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun together, but he still managed to come back intact!"

"Yaoguang, it looks like you lost!"

Daoist Master Yaoguang was stunned, and soon discovered a figure searching for treasure in the Second Ring Death Zone.

Walk along the way, kill wooden puppets, and collect corpses and treasures.

Daoist Master Yaoguang's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

Those two demons left their bodies and seemed very powerful, but they were defeated by Henry Chu.

She took a deep breath, and finally took out the Deliverance Pill and threw it over. "I'm willing to accept the loss, but I hope you still have time to refine this pill!"

Taoist Qingxie accepted the pill and smiled, "You don't have to worry about that."

The Second Ring Road is a dead end.

Move forward freely and collect treasures along the way.

Nowadays, countless ancient treasures have been swept out from the bottom of the ancient Styx, but there are fewer monks who dare to stay here.

He was able to collect treasures at will without any risk.

He even got a top-grade spiritual weapon.

He even obtained several top-grade spiritual weapons.

As for all kinds of magical herbs and medicines, they have everything.

At this time, Zizai was looking at a spiritual weapon shrouded in a gloomy and sinister aura, with a look of curiosity.

This thing seems to have been refined using secret techniques and cannot be activated by spiritual power.

He pondered, "Could it be... a ghost weapon used exclusively by ghosts?"

The ghost path is different from the corpse path.

The attacks of ghosts are almost always directed at the spirit and the primordial spirit, and rarely cause damage to the physical body.

If they want to harm the flesh, they need to use ghost weapons.

Ghost weapons are also very mysterious.

Generally speaking, only those ghosts who are born with accompanying ghost weapons can use ghost weapons.

Most ghosts simply don't have the ability to use ghost weapons.

Even if they were given a ghost weapon, they would have no idea how to use it.

There are also very few secret methods for refining ghost weapons.

Few people pay attention to ghost weapons.

Almost all of them are focused on improving themselves.

This ghost weapon also looks like it was transformed from a spiritual weapon.

Chu Xuan's two Ghost Kings, Four Arms and Two Arms, both have accompanying ghost weapons, so they can both use ghost weapons.

Thinking of this, Zizai took away the ghost weapon.

Nowadays, there are many people watching, so you can't reveal your cards easily.

In addition, there are treasures everywhere now, and it is obvious that we have to race against time to find them.

Obviously not a good time.

It won't be too late to take a closer look at this ghost weapon after I get back.

Continue to explore aimlessly.

However, although it is aimless, it also understands the principle of seeking benefits and avoiding harm.

Not too close to the Ancient Styx River, and not too close to where the wooden puppets gather.

These are the two rules he set for himself.

"Hmm? Shang Xingchen? No, it seems to be his clone."

He freely swung out a wind finger and easily killed the wooden puppet in the Spirit Transformation Stage in front of him. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked straight ahead.

There was a man in front who was controlling a spiritual weapon to kill the wooden puppet.

Wherever he passed, wooden puppets died.

The measures are decisive and there is no delay.

Obviously he is well aware of the wooden puppet's weaknesses.

The man also noticed Zizai, and immediately stopped and rushed towards Zizai.

The two of them bowed to each other from a distance.

The man smiled and said, "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Chu to be here too. Nice to meet you."

"Why don't we two team up to fight the enemy?"

Zizai smiled and said, "That's great."

The two of them approached, looked each other up and down, and smiled knowingly.

They all realized that the other party was not the real person, but a clone.

"What's your name?" Shang Xingchen's clone asked with a smile.

"comfortable."

"My name is 'Six Paths'."

The two nodded and walked side by side.

All the wooden puppets along the way died, each one fatally struck.

Don't waste any spiritual energy or time.

The two of them took what they needed from the treasure they obtained.

Zizai and Liudao are both clones, and they are all executing the orders of the original body, so there is no possibility of conflict, and they can instead cooperate sincerely.

If Chu Xuan and Shang Xingchen were here, they would definitely not get so close.

"Chu Jie?"

After Zizai killed a few spiritual wooden puppets with his fingers, he suddenly discovered that a spiritual wooden puppet was on a killing spree.

Doesn't the appearance of this wooden puppet look exactly like Chu Jie, the fallen cultivator who had achieved out-of-body experience in Taiyin Tower?

This person is in a deadly situation, probably due to the layout of the Taiyin Tower.

However, the Taiyin Tianzun of the Taiyin Tower obviously did not care about the people under his command.

They are all just pawns.

Chu Jie probably didn't have time to escape before he was controlled by the Greedy Tree and turned into a wooden puppet that only knew how to kill.

There were quite a few monks being hunted by him, more than a dozen of them.

The leading Divine Transformation cultivator was Ling Xueying from the Xuanmiao Tian Sect, and the rest of the Divine Transformation cultivators came from various sects.

There are even some Nascent Souls.

They are lucky to be alive today.

"Xueying, take the disciples back to the sect and go to Donglu to find Yunque. Let her take charge of the situation. Leave this place to me." Zizai shouted loudly and floated towards Chu Jie.

Liu Dao smiled slightly, "I'll help you."

The two of them stepped forward at the same time, cooperated tacitly, and quickly killed the wooden puppet.

Ling Xueying felt very lucky. She looked at the free demon body with gratitude and quickly flew towards the dark domain.

While flying, the words of the ancestor just now appeared in my mind, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"lark?"

"Didn't Skylark disappear? When did he come back?"

It's not her fault.

Since Chu Yunque was rescued by Chu Xuan, he has never appeared in public and has been practicing in Dayan Mountain.

Then he followed Chu Xuan's instructions and went to the East Land of the Dark Realm for training.

He never appeared in front of Ling Xueying, Gong Yue'e and others during the entire process.

The other side.

The tacit cooperation between Zizai and Liudao in killing soon attracted the attention of others.

Li Lingshu, a cultivator in the late out-of-body stage, narrowed his eyes and looked from afar, as if thinking about something.

After thinking for a moment, he did not move closer to the two of them, but instead moved away.

Even though he was in the late out-of-body stage, he did not want to attack the two out-of-body monks who cooperated so well with each other.

Moreover, since his previous clone died in a battle at Xu Ling Mountain, the new clone has not yet reached maturity.

It is unwise to act rashly.

Seeing that Li Lingshu had no intention of taking action, the other out-of-body cultivators were even more afraid to take action.

Basically, they are searching for treasure in a designated area.

Even when we are close, we pretend not to see each other and just pass by each other.

A scene where harmony brings wealth.

While everyone was risking their lives searching for treasure in the deadly place, the battle between the two powerful men in the sky was coming to an end.

All I heard was a terrifying roar.

The gloomy cloud suddenly collapsed and turned into countless fragments that scattered between heaven and earth.

At this moment, everyone felt the biting chill and instinctively stopped moving and looked up at the sky.

A child's face suddenly appeared, a thousand feet tall.

Although she looks pretty, her eyes reveal endless vicissitudes of life.

A cold voice floated from afar, "Wuqiu, I will come back and suppress you with my own hands!"

The child said calmly, "You need to recuperate for at least a thousand years. Without you, the Taiyin Tower will surely fall apart."

"How can you suppress me?"

"I think it won't be long before the Taiyin Tower you built collapses on its own."

The cold voice didn't speak again and seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

"it's over?"

A thought arose in everyone's mind.

"Immortal, indestructible. As agreed, I'll give this gluttonous tree to you."

"In the future, you have to help me once."

The child said calmly.

But this time, his voice could only be heard by someone hiding in the clouds.

A black shadow that was more than three meters tall suddenly floated out, like a ghost, and appeared above the Greedy Tree in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, the domineering gluttonous tree actually felt a sense of fear.

An infinitely huge bony hand appeared out of thin air.

In just a moment, the Greedy Tree was uprooted from the ancient Styx.

There was a loud rumbling sound.

It makes it difficult for everyone to stand firm.

"Uprooted..."

Many people stared at the Greedy Tree in amazement.

But after just a few glances, I felt as if something was crawling in my eyes, as if it was about to grow out.

They were suddenly horrified and quickly looked away.

That feeling gradually disappeared.

But there were still a few screams.

The others looked in the direction of the sound and immediately saw the two out-of-body cultivators still looking at the Greedy Tree, with no sign of life at all.

Two aerial roots suddenly stretched out from their eyes, pointing straight up to the sky!

"You can't look directly at the Heavenly Lord."

The child in the air spoke softly and disappeared.

As the voice fell, the two people who were parasitized by the roots of the Greedy Tree turned into ashes silently.

Such a scene made the monks nearby shudder.

If they had looked at the Greedy Tree a few more times just now, they would probably have been turned into ashes now.

"The battle is finally over..."

Zizai lowered his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

When two great celestial beings clashed with each other, the aftermath of the battle was enough to not only shatter the stars, but even destroy the star field.

Add to that the Greedy Tree, which is comparable to the Heavenly Lord.

The reason they were able to survive was obviously because the Immortal Lord showed mercy and left some means to protect this world during the battle.

Otherwise, no one would survive.

Of course, maybe it was a fight between people at the level of the Heavenly Master, and they had their own ways of fighting to prevent the world from being broken apart.

Maybe they fought in the void?

What they just saw was just the appearance of Taiyin and Wugou fighting in the void?

The actual battle will certainly be even more terrifying and horrific.

If one is even slightly touched, even if it is just seen with the eyes or heard with the ears, one will surely die even if one has the ability to leave the body.

Zizai shook his head.

Without reaching that level, it is naturally difficult to know how those big figures fight.

As for the huge bony hand that uprooted the gluttonous tree, he had some thoughts in his mind.

Because that doesn't seem like the method of Wuquezun.

More like a new powerful person.

But he didn't know who it was.

Crash...

The ancient Styx River began to shake again.

Everyone's heart was pounding, and many people subconsciously fled.

But the ancient Styx was disappearing at an extremely fast speed.

After a while, not a drop of river water remained.

The ancient Hades River that spanned the starry sky and shattered the stars disappeared as if it had evaporated.

It even makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

After all, so many cultivators are accustomed to the ancient Styx dropping some gold coins every few days.

It's gone suddenly, I'm not used to it.

"it's over..."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but did not leave immediately. Instead, they quickly began to collect treasures from the place.

Now that the two great Heavenly Masters had finished their fight, the Greedy Tree was uprooted.

Isn't that a great time for treasure hunting?

Moreover, although the ancient Styx River has disappeared, its aura still remains here.

If it just dissipates normally, it will take at least a thousand years.

For the cultivators of the magic path, this place is a natural paradise.

I will definitely come here often in the future.

In the clouds.

The black shadow, more than three meters tall, looked at the dead place in the distance, as if thinking about something.

The voice of a child suddenly rang out, "Why, who have you taken a fancy to now? Do you want to take him in as a Shura child?"

The three-meter-long black shadow spoke lightly, with a neutral voice, "No, he is already Shurazi."

The young child chuckled, "It seems that you have left behind many inheritances in various places."

The three-meter-long black shadow suddenly said, "You used Thirteenth Junior Brother's eighth clone to attract the Ancient Styx River and severely damaged Taiyin. You have already used up its value."

"Leave him to me."

"Don't you want the White Tiger Talisman? I can exchange it with you."

The young child shook his head, "No, his eighth clone still has its uses."

The three-meter-tall black shadow smiled faintly, "Then you better be careful. That sword has always intended to capture him alive, and the same goes for that big muscle block."

The young child smiled, "The old dragon will help me."

The three-meter-long black shadow hummed, the space shook slightly, and then disappeared in an instant.

The young child did not stay for long and also disappeared suddenly.

…

More than ten days later.

Xuanmiao Tianzong, at the foot of Dayan Mountain.

Chu Yunque, Ling Xueying and Gong Yue'e came forward one after another to report the situation.

After Gong Yue'e finished speaking, she couldn't help but glance at Chu Yunque a few times.

She has been guarding the Xuanmiao Tianzong. Ever since Chu Yunque appeared, she has been wondering who this woman is and why she is so trusted by the ancestor.

Ling Xueying felt that her position was unstable, and her mind was now full of how to take the position of sect leader.

But Chu Yunque is a descendant of the ancestor's bloodline after all.

If she wanted to replace Chu Yunque and take the position of sect leader, she would probably have to put in a lot of effort...

After listening to the three women's reports, Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.

The ancient Styx River has disappeared for more than ten days, and the battle between the two Heavenly Lords has also ended.

But the scars left by the war continue to plague the nearby star regions.

For example, those wooden puppets are still active around, looking for monks to parasitize.

For example, when the Taiyin Tower fell into decline, the whole tower was leaderless due to Taiyin's disappearance, and the masters of various towers became independent, which made the situation even more chaotic.

There are also cultivators from other star regions who are rushing in continuously after hearing about the three appearances of the ancient Styx.

They didn't know that the ancient Styx had disappeared.

They still believe that the ancient Styx still exists and that ancient treasures will continue to be unearthed from the bottom of the river.

These foreign monks are still pouring into the eastern area of ​​the Hun Tian star region.

They are also destabilizing factors.

Of course, in Chu Xuan's view, foreign cultivators are also fresh blood in another sense.

The True Lord of Out-of-Body Reality and the True Man of Transformation of Spirit are both figures who can be called the ancestors of the sect.

But this time, due to various factors, many of the out-of-body and incarnation realms nearby were killed or injured.

Several of the Xuanmiao Tianzong's incarnation cultivators also died.

That old guy Chang Mo finally learned his lesson this time.

He took the initiative to request to guard the sect instead of going to a dangerous place to search for treasure.

Therefore, he did not die, but was still alive and kicking.

The ecological niches left vacant after the death of these True Lords and True Men will not disappear out of thin air, but will naturally be occupied by someone.

Xuanmiao Tianzong can take advantage of this opportunity to strengthen its strength.

Chu Xuan has no interest in hegemony.

He only regarded Xuanmiao Tianzong as a tool.

A tool that helps him gather intelligence and collect spiritual objects.

Such a tool only needs to be handy and powerful enough to protect yourself, but it should not be too strong.

Chu Xuan waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. While all the sects are suffering heavy losses, restore the sect's strength as soon as possible, and it would be best if you could make it stronger."

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report from outside.

"Shu Qi? Let him in."

The three women bowed and left.

The short Shu Qi quickly came to Chu Xuan and said respectfully, "True Lord, as you expected, all the branch towers of the Taiyin Tower have collapsed and are now on their own mountaintops."

"But their chaos didn't last long. As far as I know, the fallen cultivators in the Xuanyin Star Region have been integrated into a new force."

"The fallen cultivators in other star regions should also be quickly integrated."

Chu Xuan couldn't help but become interested when he heard this, "Which force?"

Shu Qi said respectfully, "The people above call themselves the Heaven-Defying Alliance."

"But according to the intelligence I've obtained, the core members of the Overthrown Heaven Alliance are extremely mysterious, and their true appearances are almost invisible."

"But their strength is extremely terrifying, and they seem to have mastered a lot of Fallen Cultivation Techniques and the resources to practice Fallen Cultivation Techniques."

"So many of the remaining fallen cultivators of the Taiyin Tower surrendered to the Heaven-Defying Alliance without any hesitation."

Chu Xuan chewed on the name, thinking, "Inverted Heaven Alliance..."

Overthrow the Tiandao Immortal Alliance?

If we speculate in this direction, the people who formed the Anti-Heaven Alliance are quite arrogant.

Judging from their methods, it seems that they have been accumulating this for a long time.

I just don't know what the relationship is between the core members of the Overthrown Heaven Alliance and the core members of the Taiyin Tower.

Could it be a competitor?

After Chu Xuan listened to Shu Qi's report of other information, he waved his hand and signaled Shu Qi to leave.

"We got too many treasures in the riverside death zone this time. We need to quickly transform them into combat power."

He took a step forward and returned to Planet Aquamarine.

In the Water Curtain Cave on the Aquamarine Star.

Chu Xuan took out all the blood essence of the Styx and gave it to his Taixue clone.

All the blood essence of the Styx that he obtained this time added up to form a small mountain.

Because Tian Liyuan and Tian Zhenkun also have several pieces of Styx blood essence in their Qiankun bags.

As the saying goes, quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

If all of this Styx blood essence is refined into the Blood Demon Pot, it will definitely cause miraculous changes in the blood cloud.

"My Taixue clone doesn't have spiritual fire, so refining weapons is too slow. Using the Netherworld Karma Fire isn't as easy as using my own arms..."

When Chu Xuan thought of this, he decided to get a spiritual fire for his Taixue clone.

The Taixue clone has to refine pills and weapons, which is a heavy task. He must have a spiritual fire of his own to better complete the task.

He kept this in mind and began to look through the spiritual weapons.

The first is that top-grade spiritual weapon.

This object is a palm-sized piece of wood carving.

The sculpture is of a monk wearing a cassock.

However, this monk's brain is slightly different from that of a normal person.

The awe-inspiring dragon eyes, the domineering dragon whiskers, and the angular dragon horns all reveal his identity.

"A dragon and Buddha sculpture...tsk,tsk,tsk,tsk, this should be a treasure used by the monks of the Wuxiang Dragon Temple. How did it end up in the ancient Styx?"

Chu Xuan was amazed.

He had never seen anything like this before, so he found it quite novel.

After a brief observation, he found that this dragon and Buddha sculpture had no offensive or defensive effects.

Its only function is to utilize merits to nourish the spirituality of the spiritual weapon!

To be precise, merit will not actively nurture spirituality, but if a person with great merit carries and activates a certain spiritual weapon for a long time and nurtures it from time to time, then the possibility of it giving birth to spirituality is much greater than that of other spiritualities.

Dragon and Buddha sculptures cleverly utilize this point to speed up this process.

As long as a spiritual weapon is placed together with a dragon or Buddha sculpture, over the years, this spiritual weapon is very likely to develop spirituality.

If one year is not enough, then ten years will do.

Ten years is not enough, twenty or thirty years will eventually bring spirituality to life.

"In this respect, it is quite similar to the Dingxian Plate."

"However, the Dingxian Plate doesn't require any consumption. In terms of quality, it should be one point higher than the Dragon Buddha Sculpture."

Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the Dingxian Plate.

He had put the Cloud Piercing Bow in it a long time ago.

As time went by, it was gradually forgotten.

Now that he suddenly remembered it, he simply took it out with great interest and probed his spiritual sense into it.

"Huh…"

Chu Xuan gently stroked the Cloud Piercing Bow with his spiritual sense.

Suddenly, I realized that there was an inexplicable meaning in the Cloud Piercing Bow.

It's like a new life being conceived and growing healthily in its mother's arms.

This description is actually not quite appropriate.

After all, it is just a spirituality, not an artifact spirit.

But this little bit of spirituality was enough to surprise him.

Spirituality is something that is extremely difficult to achieve from zero to one, but it can be improved step by step from one to ten or even one hundred or one thousand.

"Okay, okay, eat the big spirit stone!"

"I'll give you some more time. I want to see a magical treasure!"

Chu Xuan was overjoyed and put the Dingxian Plate away again.

Before that, he casually threw the Dingxian Plate into the corner of the Qiankun bag.

But this time, he solemnly placed it in the center of the Qiankun bag.

The kind you can see at any time.

Next, Chu Xuan took out those top-grade spiritual weapons.

These spiritual weapons were also unearthed from the bottom of the ancient Styx.

It can be seen that their refining techniques are very ancient.

Its advantages and disadvantages are obvious.

Three of the top-grade spiritual weapons are used in conjunction with the exercises.

Once you have the matching skills, you can double your combat power.

Without the corresponding skills, the combat effectiveness will be reduced several times.

Chu Xuan had only one way to deal with this kind of spiritual weapon.

Smelt and recast!

He has made some achievements in the art of weapons.

Add to that the wild imagination of the "Smelting Sutra".

It can be easily done by melting it and recasting it, taking the most important materials and refining them into one's own spiritual weapon.

He still has quite a few spiritual weapons waiting to be upgraded to top-grade ones.

For example, the Sky Corpse Tower, the Sky-covering Umbrella, the Thousand Insect Nest, etc.

All need to be improved urgently.

He put these spiritual weapons aside, preparing to refine them himself later.

We can't leave everything to the Taixue clone.

He originally refined such an Taixue clone just to share the task, not to completely give up.

"As for this ghost weapon..."

Chu Xuan's mind moved, and the sky-covering umbrella flashed by.

Four Arms and Two Arms then appeared in this cave.

The four arms were grabbing a ball of soul and eating it. Judging from the appearance, it should be Tian Zhenkun's soul.

In comparison, the second arm is much more stable.

As soon as it appeared, it said respectfully, "Dad, what do you want?"

Henry Chu looked at the two ghosts and sighed slightly.

The four arms and the second arm were obtained by him in the Izumo Kingdom on the Blue Sea Star.

I've been with him for hundreds of years.

With four arms and a huge body, and four accompanying ghost weapons, his strength has always been very powerful.

Many times, when cultivators escaped from their primordial spirits, they were firmly grasped by the four arms.

In comparison, the strength of the second arm is much inferior.

Its companion ghost weapon is a water divination plate, and it is not good at frontal combat.

He knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

Henry Chu casually pointed at the small flag ghost weapon beside him and said, "Who wants this ghost weapon?"

Upon hearing this, Four-Armed and Two-Armed looked towards the ghost weapon.

The four arms gnawed at the soul, circled around the ghost weapon several times, picked it up and danced with it, and finally shook his head repeatedly, dancing with his hands and saying, "Roar, roar, roar, roar!"

Two-arms translated, "Dad, he said he's not used to this thing and thinks his own is better."

Henry Chu nodded, "Then I'll give it to you."

"Yes! Thank you, Dad!" Erbi accepted it excitedly.

As long as this small flag ghost weapon is activated by ghost energy, it can emit layers of yin energy and boost the fighting power of ghosts.

It is indeed more suitable for long-range attack using two arms.

Chu Xuan put them back into the umbrella, and suddenly seemed to be thinking about something.

The two arms are a human body with a snake tail.

Four arms have four arms.

It looks a little different from humans, and doesn't look like a native creature of the Blue Sea Planet.

He now knew that the Aquamarine Star was the origin star of the destroyed Yanhan Dynasty.

I also know that the psychic world has far more than just humans, there is at least the Winged Tribe with wings on their backs.

In this case, there should be many other intelligent races in the psychic world.

Could it be that the Two-Armed and Four-Armed people are actually visitors from outer space?

Did he just come to Planet Aquamarine by chance, and after his death, he was affected by psychic energy and turned into a ghost?

Henry Chu couldn't help but become interested.

He kept this in mind.

Now that the ancient Styx has disappeared and the chaos has subsided, the eastern area of ​​the Hun Tian star region will have peace for at least a few years.

He will have plenty of time to stay in the psychic world in the future.

It won't be too late to search for these secrets then.

Right now, the top priority is to improve our own strength.

Everything else has to take a back seat.
