Chapter 570 - Chapter 920

Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows and immediately used the Blood Demon Sky Escape to fly away.

He didn't turn around until he had flown tens of thousands of miles.

A huge beast came into view.

This giant beast is over ten thousand miles long and pitch black all over, just like a giant python.

But a pair of walking legs grew out from its sides.

The head also has drooping tentacles and sharp mouthparts.

If I have to make an analogy, it's more like a giant centipede.

Henry Chu took a few more glances and immediately noticed something was wrong.

He murmured, "Only ten thousand miles long? But the world inside is much bigger than that."

"Could it be that the power of space is contained within its body?"

"No wonder the White Jade Turtle is always thinking about insect meat. This is the reason."

He suddenly realized.

He circled around the giant snake's body but did not find any fatal wounds.

Therefore, it is not clear whether this giant snake died of natural causes due to its lifespan.

He was still attacked and killed by foreign enemies.

After all, there is a psychic decahedron in its body.

The spiritual energy contained in the psychic decahedron naturally far exceeds that of the psychic hexahedron.

Repairing the shell of a giant water monster is not a difficult task.

Chu Xuan looked around again and found that there were no planets around.

He took out the tower ship and made a big circle with the body of the big monster as the center.

He didn't even see a single barren planet being refined.

No wonder Hua Zuo was so hungry that his eyes were blurry.

There is obviously a barren starry sky nearby.

Just like the wild star field in the world of immortal cultivation.

In the end, he didn't find anything valuable. After using the Nine Needle Grass Poison to dissolve a small hole again, he returned to the body of the big snake.

Under the effect of the psychic decahedron, the small hole healed at an extremely fast speed.

Chu Xuan took a step forward and came to the Water Curtain Cave on the Aquamarine Star through the Mirror of the Universe, where he immersed himself in studying the pollen clone.

For a cultivator who has achieved the state of out-of-body experience, every additional clone is a good thing.

Many out-of-body cultivators do not have enough resources to cultivate clones.

But if resources are sufficient, the more the better.

Although Chu Xuan does not have unlimited resources, he obviously still has a little more than ordinary out-of-body cultivators.

He worked at his desk like this for ten years.

Ten years later, he raised his head and sighed softly.

"Sure enough, not everything in the psychic world is useful to me."

"The method used to breed this pollen clone is too harsh."

He looked at another object, a smile on his tired face. "However, this Nine Needle Grass Poison is quite interesting. I didn't expect it to be so effective against the evil beast."

During the past ten years, he has been studying at his desk in the Water Curtain Cave, but the Demon Body of Freedom did not bury himself in hard training. Instead, he fought on the eternal battlefield and earned military merits.

While studying the pollen clone, Chu Xuan had an idea and asked the free demon body to take the Nine Needle Grass Poison to try it out.

I actually got some results.

Beasts of evil, such as the Dark Locust and the Dark Mist, will become limp once they are infected with the poison of the Nine-Needle Grass.

Especially for the evil beasts with weaker individual combat power such as the Dark Locust, their shells will quickly soften and become easily damaged by spells.

Chu Xuan stroked his chin, thoughtfully, "I feel that this Nine Needle Grass still has room for improvement. We can definitely choose the best ones and select the Nine Needle Grass that is more effective in suppressing the evil beast to make the poison."

"Maybe I can even sell Nine Needle Grass Poison in the future and earn military merit."

"This is much safer than fighting on the battlefield, and the profit is not necessarily less."

He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

In this eternal battlefield, as long as you have enough military merits, you can exchange them for anything you want.

Miraculous elixirs, magical weapons, secret techniques...

For example, in the later stage of out-of-body cultivation, when you reach perfection, you can accelerate this process by taking elixirs such as Tianqiao Yuandan and Shengling Yuandan.

But these pills are quite expensive.

Generally, more than one Class C military achievement is required.

This is under the premise that there are many treasures in the Eternal Battlefield and many alchemy masters gather there.

If it were placed outside the Eternal Battlefield, the price would be even higher.

A cultivator like Chu Xuan who has some knowledge of alchemy can of course exchange materials to refine pills himself.

However, these pills require quite rare main ingredients, such as Tianqiao Fruit and Shengling Sand.

The price of Tianqiao Fruit is not low either, the average price is twelve D-level military merits.

Shenglingsha is almost the same.

If you want to get a large amount of Tianqiao Fruit and Shengling Sand, you must have enough military merits.

If you want to earn military merit, the most common way is to accept missions and fight on the battlefield.

But there are also methods such as refining medicine, refining weapons, and drawing talismans.

As long as you go far enough in these areas and are strong enough, the speed of earning military merits will not be slow at all.

…

A few months later.

The first floor hall of the Juling Peak Treasure Pavilion.

There are many monks gathered here, it is very lively.

From the outside, the treasure house doesn't seem very big.

But there's a whole other world inside.

Especially in the lobby on the first floor, at the end of every year, a large number of monks would gather here to set up stalls and sell their goods.

Over time, a market town was formed here, and people with good intentions named it Julingfang.

The monks then agreed to call it by this name.

In the Julingfang, all kinds of rare treasures were displayed and sold.

Compared with the price in the Treasure Pavilion, it is almost 10% lower.

This is also the benefit of trading between monks.

At this moment, a man in a deep blue robe was walking in the Giant Spirit Pavilion.

I look at this, I look at that, I really want to buy them, but I can't afford them because I am short of money.

His name is Du Ziteng, an early-stage out-of-body cultivator from the Wanxingxing District.

It has been nearly a year since he was recruited to Xu Ling Mountain, but he has not earned any military merits.

He also took apart a Class C military merit awarded by the Tiandao Immortal Alliance as a reward for recruiting monks in advance and used a lot of it.

Now there are only more than ten Class D military achievements left.

I have to buy pills and repair spiritual weapons, and I really can't make ends meet.

"Fellow Daoist, my Five Thunder Destruction Talisman is very powerful. It is a mid-stage Out-of-Body Realm Talisman, and is particularly effective against Nether Mist! Five pieces will give you three Dings, and ten pieces will only give you five Dings!"

"No, no, I can't afford it..."

"Fellow Daoist, my Flowing Fire Sword is a top-grade spiritual weapon. It can release blazing fire with a wave of my hand. It is the best weapon to restrain the Dark Locust. As long as..."

"Top-grade spiritual weapon? Fellow Daoist, please spare me, I really can't afford it."

Du Ziteng shuttled between the stalls with a wry smile on his face.

I want to buy everything, but I can't afford anything.

This is his current situation.

He sighed, wandered around, and finally came to a stall.

This stall only sells one thing.

It's just green liquid in a bottle.

It wasn't as dazzling as the other stalls, which made him a little curious.

"Daoyou, what is this?"

Du Ziteng took a few glances and looked at the stall owner in black clothes and asked curiously.

Without even looking up, the stall owner casually said, "Nine Needle Grass Poison is very effective against evil beasts. It can soften the shells of dark locusts, dissolve the underworld mist, and reduce the speed of blood moon monsters."

"It can be applied to the surface of a spiritual weapon, or it can be made into poison mist or poison powder, which can be activated by spiritual power and spread around."

"Two D-level combat merits for one bottle, fixed price."

"If you need it to be made into poison mist or poison powder, the additional processing fee is half a D-level combat merit per bottle."

Du Ziteng was stunned and said in shock, "Fellow Daoist, is your Nine Needle Grass Poison really that powerful? You can't lie to me!"

The stall owner said calmly, "I'll be selling Nine Needle Grass Poison here every day from now on. If it doesn't work, you can always come find me."

"Okay! I'll buy two bottles!" Du Ziteng nodded repeatedly.

A moment later, Du Ziteng left happily with two bottles of Nine-Needle Grass Poison.

For him, this kind of poison with a wide range and strong lethality is indeed much more cost-effective.

He took out the Immortal Alliance Token and soon said excitedly, "Old Wang! I got a new treasure. Let's go, let's take a mission and go out to fight! I think I'm incredibly powerful now!"

The stall owner looked at Du Ziteng's departing back with a calm expression.

He was Chu Xuan.

After all, the poison of his Nine Needles Grass has not been verified and word of mouth has not spread. This is the first business deal he made today.

However, he was not worried.

As the saying goes, good wine needs no bush.

As long as the power of the Nine-Needle Grass poison becomes known, there will be an endless stream of monks coming to him to buy it every day.

By then, in order to control the selling price, he would have to ensure daily sales limit.

A few days later.

Du Ziteng and Wang Jiancheng came to Chu Xuan's stall together, their faces full of joy.

Du Ziteng waved his hand, "Daoyou, we need more Nine Needle Grass Poison, ten bottles this time!"

Wang Jiancheng immediately said, "No, we want them all!"

As he said this, he wanted to trade his military merits.

Henry Chu shook his head, "Limited to five bottles per person."

He wouldn't be stupid enough to sell all the Nine Needle Grass Poison to one person.

Although he is the only one who owns the Nine-Needle Grass, there is no guarantee that the buyer does not want to buy it back for research.

Besides, what if something happens to this person?

Wouldn't that bury the poison of the Nine Needles Grass?

Instead, he needed to sell it to many people so that many people could see the power of the Nine Needle Grass poison.

"Ah?" Du Ziteng and Wang Jiancheng were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that the other party would not even want the military merit that was delivered to their doorstep.

Henry Chu said casually, "However, if you two can bring a few new friends to buy my Nine Needle Grass Poison, I can give it to you two for free."

"For every person you bring in, you'll get a free bottle."

Du Ziteng and Wang Jiancheng's eyes lit up.

Du Ziteng was short of money, but Wang Jiancheng had accumulated a lot of military merits over the years.

However, no one would let military achievements go to waste.

Getting a bottle of Nine-Needle Grass Poison for free now is equivalent to earning two D-level military merits.

If you get three bottles for free, it will be equivalent to a task with lower difficulty.

Only a fool would not do such a good thing!

At this time, the two of them actually understood Henry Chu's meaning in their hearts.

I just want more people to know about the existence of the Nine-Needle Grass Poison.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist, we will go and get them right away!" Du Ziteng immediately patted his chest and promised.

Wang Jiancheng chuckled, "I, Old Wang, have been hanging around in Xuling Mountain for over three hundred years. My realm hasn't improved much, but I've gained a lot of connections!"

"My Immortal Alliance Token contains the contact information of over a hundred fellow Daoists who have reached the Out-of-Body Stage."

"Even the top 20 on the Xuling Mountain Ranking can be contacted."

"Just wait and see, fellow Daoist!"

Henry Chu smiled and nodded, watching them leave.

Before closing his stall that day, he sold all the Nine-Needle Grass Poison on hand.

soon.

The cultivators of Xu Ling Mountain began to realize the severity of the Nine Needle Grass poison.

Once the dark locust's hard shell comes into contact with the poison of the nine-needle grass, it immediately starts to smoke and quickly softens.

Ming Wuzi's unpredictable form will quickly disintegrate once it is penetrated by the Nine Needle Grass poison, leaving him with nowhere to escape.

The Blood Moon Demon's extremely fast speed, which it was proud of, was nothing compared to the Nine Needle Grass poison. Once it was infected, its speed dropped sharply and it became a sitting duck.

Du Ziteng, Wang Jiancheng and other monks who were the first group to buy the Nine-Needle Poison Grass reaped the first wave of benefits.

Relying on the Nine-Needle Grass Poison, he killed many evil beasts and gained considerable military merit, which in turn spread the Nine-Needle Grass Poison.

In less than ten days, Chu Xuan's stall went from being deserted to being packed with people.

Every day, groups of monks come to buy the Nine-Needle Grass Poison.

If each person buys five bottles at a time, they will get ten D-level military merits at a time.

At least one hundred bottles can be sold a day, which means two hundred D-level military merits a day.

Isn't this faster than hunting down the evil beast?

Later, Chu Xuan simply made a wooden puppet and let the wooden puppet host the stall.

Anyway, they only sell the Nine-Needle Grass Poison, and the wooden puppet can handle it.

His original body can stay in the cave to practice.

This way, you can earn military merit and improve your realm at the same time.

…

Holy Dao Palace.

Huang Chong came before Mixian again.

But this time, he was worried and looked quite ugly.

"It's rare for you to show this expression." Miexian tapped the armrest and said casually.

Huang Chong smiled awkwardly, "Master, I've encountered some minor problems recently. I really can't complete the task you assigned me."

Miexian raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Why?"

Huang Chong said helplessly, "That Chu Xuan, his real body never left Xuling Mountain, he only let his clone go out to carry out the mission."

"I originally wanted to capture his clone and force his real body to appear."

"It turned out that his clone was no less powerful than his original body. One of my disciples who had reached the Out-of-Body Perfection was inexplicably killed by his clone."

At the end of his speech, Huang Chong even lamented, "This person's Taoism is really profound. He never leaves Xuling Mountain. I really can't force the Xuanwu Seal out."

"Please punish me severely, Master. I am willing to accept the punishment."

As he said this, he kowtowed.

Anxiously awaiting the Immortal-killing punishment.

Miexian smiled and said, "Interesting, this Chu Xuan is really interesting."

"Don't worry, there will be a chance for his true form to come out."

Huang Chong was stunned and raised his head, "What the leader means is..."

Miexian casually said, "Ancestor Yuanlong ascended to the void and gave birth to nine sons."

"At the end of the turbulent era, the other seven sons were killed by the Ancient Emperor in a moment of thought. Only the eighth and ninth sons were still in the egg. The eighth son was blessed by the Divine Holy Spirit, and the ninth son was blessed by the Cilongshu King. Both of them escaped the disaster."

"The eighth child broke out of his shell three hundred years ago and has now grown into a dragon. He is naturally in harmony with the Dao and has also refined some of the power of the Greedy Saint Ancestor, commanding billions of dust beasts."

"The Divine Spirit Tianzun told me that the Eighth Son of Yuanlong is about to launch an attack on Xuling Mountain and asked the Xutian Immortal Sect to cooperate with them."

Huang Chong was overjoyed, but then he said, "But...isn't there a Burning Sea beneath Xuling Mountain?"

"How will the Eighth Son of Yuanlong bypass the Burning Sea and attack Xuling Mountain?"

Miexian said casually, "I don't know, but since they are so confident, they must have found a way to circumvent the Burning Sea."

Huang Chong nodded repeatedly, "If this happens, Xu Ling Mountain will be short of manpower and will definitely force monks to join the war. Even if Chu Xuan tries to hide, he will have to show up."

Miexian nodded, "That's exactly what's going on."

"I see there's still worry between your brows, are there still things bothering you?"

Huang Chong smiled awkwardly, "The leader is really observant."

"Recently, a poison called Nine Needle Grass Poison has appeared in Xuling Mountain. This poison actually has a remarkable effect on many ancient beasts."

"The Dark Locust's carapace will be softened, the Dark Mist's body will be pulverized, and the Blood Moon Demon will be significantly slowed down."

"The monks under my command are all very troubled."

Miexian raised his eyebrows, "Do you have any samples?"

Huang Chong nodded and presented a jade bottle with both hands, "We seized one bottle."

Miexian grabbed it casually and caught it in his hand through the air.

He took a drop of Nine Needle Grass Poison and carelessly dripped it on his arm.

But after waiting for a long time, there was still no change.

He couldn't help but shook his head, "It seems that I overestimated it."

"This poison is only effective against ancient beasts in the Out-of-Body Stage?"

Huang Chong nodded, "Exactly. If you reach the Void Refining Stage, the effect will be minimal."

Miexian pinched the vial casually, and the vial shattered into nothingness. "Then there's no need to pay any more attention to it. There are all kinds of strange things in the world. Even if there's no Nine-needle Grass Poison, there must be Eight-needle Grass Poison and Seven-needle Grass Poison."

"But if this continues, the Dark Locusts will suffer too much loss, and the strength of the monks in my Dark Locust sect will also decline..." Huang Chong frowned.

Miexian said calmly, "The Xutian Immortal Sect only has the Dark Locust Sect?"

Huang Chong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood, "I understand."

Miexian said calmly, "Use this period of time to recuperate and properly train the members of your Dark Locust Sect. It's better to have fewer people than to have unqualified ones."

"When Yuanlong Bazi leads his dust beasts to attack, we will cooperate."

Huang Chong nodded, "I understand. I'll take my leave."

Miexian watched Huang Chong leave, his expression remaining calm.

…

Xuling Mountain, Lingyun Valley.

Chu Xuan cut off a piece of big snake meat and threw it into the small lake.

The white jade turtle suddenly jumped up to a height of more than two meters, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, and swallowed the huge snake meat as big as a human head in one gulp.

"Baa, baa, baa!" It patted its belly, very satisfied.

"This guy's appetite has increased." Chu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head, "but his body hasn't increased at all, and I never see him poop. I wonder where all the food goes."

He has completely handed over the task of setting up a stall in Julingfang to sell the Nine-Needle Grass Poison to Mu Kui.

The order in Xu Ling Mountain is relatively good, and no one will rob in public.

Therefore, he was not worried that the Nine-Needle Grass Poison would be taken away by someone.

Now, you only need to feed the turtles in Lingyun Valley to gain a lot of military merits.

On average, there are two hundred Class D combat merits per day.

He glanced at the Immortal Alliance Order and found that he had accumulated more than 3,000 D-level military merits in recent days.

If we follow the ratio of the Tiandao Immortal Alliance, it is equivalent to thirty Class C military merits.

However, the number of exchange places available to the Tiandao Immortal Alliance each day is limited, and few people can grab one.

Generally, one can only find other monks privately to exchange for higher-level military merits.

But if you exchange it privately, the price is not one to one hundred.

It must be at least one to one hundred and ten.

Sometimes, when wars are frequent and there are too many Class D military achievements, this ratio will be even higher, reaching 1 to 120 or even 130.

"According to this calculation, my combat merits will be reduced, but as long as I don't exchange them for Class C combat merits, it won't be a problem."

Henry Chu chuckled.

The things he needs now, such as Tianqiao Fruit and Shengling Sand, can be bought with D-level military merits.

More precious things require Class C military merit to buy.

At that time, you have to exchange it even if you don't want to.

This also shows the value of the Class C military merit granted by the Tiandao Immortal Alliance for early recruitment of monks.

It is indeed not a casual perfunctory response.

Chu Xuan quickly went to the treasure house on Juling Peak to exchange what he needed.

One Tianqiao Fruit is worth twelve Ding-level combat merits, and one jin of Shenglingsha is worth eleven Ding-level combat merits.

He exchanged for fifty Tianqiao fruits and fifty kilograms of shengling sand in one go.

Then he handed it to the Taixue clone and asked him to refine Tianqiao Yuandan and Shengling Yuandan.

Both of these elixirs are suitable for cultivators in the late out-of-body stage to improve their realm.

Such a number of Tianqiao Yuandan and Shengling Yuandan are enough for the main body to break through to the perfection of out-of-body state, and even for the free demon body to break through the realm.

Before concentrating on cultivation, Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.

After arriving at Xu Ling Mountain, I only experienced some minor setbacks, but no major storms.

It even gave him some illusion of security.

It seems that just by practicing in seclusion and earning military merits, one can quickly improve his realm.

But he instinctively felt that this should not be the true appearance of Xu Ling Mountain.

After all, this is the battlefield where the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance and the great enemy of the void are confronting each other.

It is a chess game played by the Lord of Tribulation.

No matter what unexpected things happen, they are all within reason.

Therefore, it is still necessary to improve your strength as soon as possible before anything happens.

It's so small, it's really too low.

Refining the void as quickly as possible is the right way.

With this thought in mind, Chu Xuan calmed down and practiced in seclusion.

…

Psionic world, Apocalypse Galaxy, Dione base.

Although this is not the headquarters of the ancient order, it is also one of the most important bases.

The ancient order's renowned sea-class psyker, one of the Rat Tribe, resides at the Dione base.

At this moment, the secret master with a rat head and a human body is performing a dissection using the scalpel, pliers, chisel and other instruments integrated into his arms.

What he dissected was the corpse of an ancient ratman.

In fact, this is one of his important topics.

Study the differences between ancient rats and modern rats, and find a way to improve the overall quality of modern rats.

But this is difficult.

After a long time, the secret master sighed, wiped the blood-stained instruments on his hands on the white cloth beside him, and then soaked them in the disinfectant on the side.

He looked up at the unchanging and desolate scenery outside the window and sighed softly.

"After so much research, there's been no progress at all. We're almost out of ancient rat carcasses. What should we do now?"

While he was thinking, he heard the excited voice of the apprentice outside.

"Teacher, the flower throne is back!"

The secret master was also surprised, "This guy is finally back, I thought he was dead!"

"Hahaha, you're not dead, how could I die?" Hua Zuo laughed and strode in.

The flower seat is two heads taller than the secret master.

But he still squatted down and gave the secret master a big hug.

The two sat down and talked for a long time.

Talking about the exploration outside the Milky Way over the past few hundred years, Hua Zuo sighed.

The secret master listened with great interest.

I sighed several times, thinking that if I weren't so old, I would definitely go outside the Milky Way.

Hua Zuo smiled and said, "By the way, you would never have thought that I would encounter the corpse of a giant water monster outside the Milky Way!"

"Big snake?" The Master was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "Let me dissect it!"

Hua Zuo shook his head. "Forget it. There's a psychic decahedron embedded in its body. With your old body, you'll probably be beaten up if you get close."

Hua Zuo continued, "What I want to talk about is another thing. Guess what I encountered inside the body of the giant snake?"

The Secret Master was stunned. "What else could it be? Bugs?"

"I know there are many parasites growing in the body of the giant snake."

"Some insects drifting in the void like to parasitize these giant beasts and suck their blood."

"The snakehead has therefore evolved a corresponding system to kill insects with insects."

Hua Zuo laughed heartily, "Not only that! Besides the bugs, I also met someone, a member of the Yan Clan!"

The Secret Master was stunned. "What? People from the Yan Clan? Impossible."

After the fall of the Yanhan Dynasty, the Yan people became extremely rare.

The Chaos Gods particularly like the Yan people. Once they discover them, they will use all means to seduce them and make them become Chaos believers.

This made the situation even worse for the Yan people, and their numbers continued to decrease.

Hua Zuo laughed heartily and told the story of his encounter with Chu Xuan.

Finally, he sighed, "He's very powerful. I think he's at least a Sea-level Psychic. I wanted to invite him on my return trip, but unfortunately he refused."

The Secret Master's eyes widened when he heard this. "Is there such a thing?"

"Wait, I suddenly remembered something. A long time ago, the Emperor of the Yanhan Empire sent someone to ask me something."

"What?" Hua Zuo asked curiously.

The Master of Secrets said in a deep voice, "He asked me if the Ancient Order had another Sea-level Hermit outside of the Great Galaxy."

"Because the Dingbei Fleet of the Yanhan Empire was saved by that Xuan."

"You've been away from the Galaxy for too long, so you might not even know what's going on. The Yanhan Empire has launched two restoration expeditions. I'm talking about the first one, not the second one that just ended a while ago."

Hua Zuo opened his eyes wide in surprise, and it took him a while to react, "That must be his clone!"

"Oh my god, I didn't expect Xuan's other clone to be so far away."

"He told me that his clones were separated for some reason, and he has been trying to find them."

The Secret Master's eyes sparkled, "Great! I didn't expect there really is such a person!"

"We must find him!"

"I've wanted to dissect a member of the Yan tribe for a long time!"

Hua Zuo quickly stopped him, "Stop, stop. Although he hasn't officially joined the Ancient Order, he is still considered our ally."

"I know you're obsessed with anatomy, and your mind is full of ways to improve the overall quality of the rat race, but you also have to prioritize."

The Master hesitated for a long time before saying, "It should be possible to cut off a piece of meat and study it."

"If I have a chance to meet him, I will ask him in person."

Hua Zuo smacked his lips, feeling both amused and helpless at his old friend's persistence.

The two chatted for a while before the Master suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "By the way, your people have been a bit restless lately, repeatedly invading the provinces that were liberated by the Empire. I've already alerted the Emperor."

Hua Zuo sighed, "Instead of uniting to fight against Chaos, they are eyeing the Yanhan Empire covetously. How foolish..."

"Let them be. I am an outlier among the Ye Clan, and I can't persuade them."

"My people will only acknowledge the strong. Unless they are hurt by the beating, no one can persuade them."

After saying that, he took out a psychic cube and said, "I brought back quite a few things from the Yanhan Dynasty ruins this time. Call the Resurrected and we'll study them carefully."

The Secret Master's eyes lit up, "Okay!"

…

Giant Star, Extremely Dark Cave.

Suddenly, a powerful spiritual power erupted from it.

This kind of spiritual power fluctuation is enough to shatter mountains and stop rivers from flowing.

However, they were all firmly bound to this area by the formation and did not affect the surroundings.

Chu Xuan walked out of the cave with a big laugh, full of high spirits.

Beside him stood the free demon body, which had now reached the perfect state of out-of-body experience.

His own realm has not yet reached the state of perfection, and he is still one step away from it.

However, thanks to the vast energy and blood contained in the flesh and blood of the big monster, his body refining realm has improved again, and he has advanced two levels in a row, and now he has reached the sixtieth level of body refining.

This means that he has reached the peak of his current body refining realm.

One step further is the sixty-first level of body training.

By then, the strength displayed will be equivalent to that of a cultivator at the first level of Lianxu.

Moreover, the quality of the giant snake's flesh and blood is still very high and can continue to play a role.

As long as there is enough time, it is only a matter of time to reach the 61st level of body refining.

As for why the Body Refining Realm once again surpassed the Qi Refining Realm, Chu Xuan knew it very well.

His original body and clone are different.

The free demon body only needs to focus on the Qi refining realm. From the Qi refining stage to the out-of-body stage, the practice is the same.

Various cultivation resources are readily available, and there is no need to spend extra energy to obtain them.

The practice is naturally extremely fast.

However, his original body always has to do all this and also has to take into account physical training, so the speed of improving Qi training realm will naturally lag behind that of his clone.

This is inevitable.

"My current body refining realm is already strong enough, but I still lack the necessary body refining martial arts skills to perform it."

"There must be some impressive body-building martial arts in the Sutra Library of Juling Peak, but the required combat merits are certainly considerable."

Chu Xuan's mind moved, and he took a step forward, heading towards the Giant Star Tianlong Gobi.

A moment later.

Tianlong laughed heartily, "You want physical training techniques? Fine! Fight with me!"

"You haven't come to see me for a long time. I miss you a lot."

Chu Xuan also laughed when he heard this.

This is what he likes most about Tianlong.

True temperament.

Never beat around the bush.

It just so happened that he had also entered the sixtieth level of body refinement, and he also wanted to test how strong his body was.

A great battle immediately broke out between the man and the dragon.

Tianlong Gobi suffered the most.

Various ancient terrains that had stood for thousands of years were directly pitted.

A few hours later, Chu Xuan was lying on Tianlong's back, looking at the starry sky of Giant Star.

"Is this your body-refining martial art?"

Chu Xuan closed his eyes and thought for a while before he said with a hint of surprise.

Tianlong laughed and said, "Yeah, it's amazing, isn't it? This is a move I created myself."

"Are there any other tricks?" Chu Xuan asked.

Tianlong said awkwardly, "That's all, just this one move."

Chu Xuan laughed in silence and pondered this move carefully.

He soon realized that this move was indeed very powerful.

After activating this move, all the energy and blood in the body will surge out and condense into a giant dragon statue falling from the sky.

Suppress with the strongest force.

The stronger the blood, the bigger the colossus.

When the Qi and blood become strong enough, the colossus will be able to cross the sky, like a giant dragon incarnated from the sky!

No wonder Tianlong has only had this one trick.

With Tianlong's huge energy and blood, this one move is all he needs to defeat his opponent.

"This move has no name?" Chu Xuan asked.

Tianlong shook his head, "No."

Henry Chu became interested, "I love naming the best. I'll think of one for you."

Tianlong said excitedly, "Okay!"

Chu Xuan thought for a long time before he uttered four words, "Dragon King Statue!"

Tianlong's eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up, "What a good name! I like it!"

Chu Xuan spent some time getting familiar with this move called "Dragon King Colossus".

After just a few days, this move became extremely familiar to him.

He could even combine the physical training martial arts he had come into contact with to come up with new insights into the Dragon King Statue.

Tianlong has always been the top powerhouse on this giant planet, and he became the only powerhouse after the death of Mother Earth.

Tianlong has always bullied the weak with his strength. Although there are many crude aspects in this move he figured out, there is no need to improve it.

But Henry Chu is different.

The enemies he has to deal with are of various types, numerous in number, and of varying strengths.

Naturally, this move needs to be improved to make it more powerful.

After this move was improved, Tianlong also praised it highly and felt sincere admiration for Chu Xuan.

In his opinion, although Henry Chu's blood and energy were much weaker than his, he was far superior to him in terms of wisdom and skills.

Fully worthy of his respect.

…

Xuling Mountain, Lingyun Valley.

whoosh!

An arrow of light shot through the air.

It even turned several times in mid-air, creating several beautiful arcs.

But even so, it's lightning fast.

The bow was still on the bowstring in one breath, and in the next breath it had easily pierced through the iron and wooden dummy and blew it into countless wood chips.

The bowstring is still vibrating and humming.

It also seemed to be celebrating the power of this arrow.

Chu Xuan showed a satisfied smile.

The ironwood dummy was introduced by Wang Jiancheng, and he had specially found it to test its power.

As long as you can penetrate it, you will have the power of complete out-of-body experience.

If you can blow it to pieces, it will be the pinnacle of perfection in the out-of-body experience.

As for the more advanced iron and wooden dummies, they correspond to the cultivators of the Void Refinement Realm, and those dummies have to be purchased by spending military merits.

Chu Xuan stroked the longbow gently and said with a smile, "This Cloud Piercing Bow is truly powerful."

"If we refine some powerful spiritual ores in the future, wouldn't it be equivalent to a small spiritual treasure?"

"Spirituality is indeed a good thing. The arrow that has just left the bow can actually turn easily in mid-air according to my thoughts."

"In this way, we can hit the enemy at an extremely tricky angle, making it impossible for them to defend themselves."

The longbow in his hand was the Cloud-Piercing Bow that had been nurtured with spirituality in the Dingxian Plate.

During this period, he also used his extra military merits to exchange for some spiritual ores to refine into it.

Its grade naturally entered the ranks of top-grade spiritual weapons.

Now that he had tried it for the first time, he was very satisfied with its enormous power.

"The Cloud Piercing Bow has its own spirituality, so I don't need to operate it. This way, I have an extra advantage when defending against the enemy."

Chu Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Ever since Yin Yang was promoted to a spiritual treasure, it has become a trump card and cannot be used easily.

The only spiritual weapons he could use before were Qiankun City and the Soul-killing Lock, but they were limited to close-range combat.

Now there are more Cloud Piercing Bows, which can accurately hit the enemy from thousands of miles away, which is a great thing.

Thinking of this, Chu Xuan was in a good mood. He collected the treasure, flew into the air, and headed straight for the Juling Peak.

Juling Peak is the core of Xuling Mountain. It has always been a place where people come and go, and it is also the place where various information and intelligence converge.

He had been practicing in seclusion during this period and had no idea what was happening on the battlefield.

Now is a good time to find out.

He came to Juling Peak and wandered around casually.

Monks can be seen coming and going everywhere.

Some people are in a hurry, while others are leisurely and relaxed.

But overall, there are more people who look anxious.

After all, the main theme of Xu Ling Mountain is always war, not peace.

Henry Chu came to a small teahouse.

He was a tea lover and saw this small teahouse when he first arrived at Xuling Mountain.

However, time was tight at that time, so I did not go into the teahouse to see what was going on.

Now that I have some free time, I might as well come in and take a look. Maybe I can find some good tea.

He also heard that the owner of the teahouse seemed to be a rather mysterious person who rarely appeared.

"Chung Le Teahouse, interesting name."

Henry Chu muttered the teahouse plaque and nodded with a smile.

As soon as he walked into the teahouse, he felt the heat and the fragrance of tea hitting him in the face.

Although there were many people in the teahouse, it did not seem crowded or noisy.

Everyone was sipping tea or chatting in low voices with friends.

He had only taken a few steps when a wooden puppet came up to him.

This wooden puppet is exquisitely crafted and exudes the fragrance of tea. It is obvious that it has been in the teahouse for a long time.

A female voice was heard.

"Good morning, fellow Daoist. I am Xiaoyou from Changle Teahouse."

"What kind of tea would you like to try, fellow Daoist? My teahouse has recently added three new teas: Bilongtian, Boguanglin, and Ansongxiang. They cost one and a half ounces, and three and a half ounces!"

The voice is quite cute, but beneath the cuteness it seems to be a bit mechanical and monotonous.

Henry Chu glanced at the wooden puppet a few more times and said casually, "One or two of each."

"Okay, fellow Daoist, please follow me." Mu Kui led Chu Xuan to an empty seat by the window and sat down. "Fellow Daoist, please take a seat. Xiaoyou will serve you tea right away."

After a while, all three kinds of tea were served.

The wooden puppet said again, "Daoist friend, please take your time."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Chu Xuan suddenly smiled and said, "Youquan wood can be said to be extremely yin, and needs to be harmonized with yang spiritual objects, but the right proportion is extremely difficult to find."

"Fellow Daoist is so amazing that he can even create a clone using the Nether Spring Wood."

The wooden puppet suddenly stood still and didn't move.

He kept muttering, "Daoist friend, please take your time...Daoist friend, please take your time...Daoist friend, please take your time..."

Chu Xuan was stunned, not knowing why the wooden puppet was like this.

"She is not a clone." A voice came.

Immediately afterwards, a thin man in white clothes walked down from the second floor and came to Henry Chu slowly.

As soon as the thin man appeared, the monks who were drinking tea all looked at him with admiration.

I was also quite curious. The owner of Changle Teahouse rarely showed up, so why did he show up today?

"Do you mind if I sit down?" the thin man smiled.

After he sat down, he stretched out his hand and cast a formation to block out the surrounding sounds.

Chu Xuan nodded and looked at the other person curiously.

The thin man had sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones, and looked frail.

It is very similar to those Gu Dao practitioners who cannot feed the Gu worms and suffer from the retaliatory attacks of the Gu worms.

His right sleeve was empty.

Something wasn't right with my left leg either.

"She is my daughter, her name is Xiaoyou." The thin man stretched out his left arm and stroked the wooden puppet's head, smiling.

The man saw a flash of spiritual light in his palm, which then sank into the body of the wooden puppet.

The thin man patted the wooden puppet's shoulder and said, "Xiaoyou, another Taoist friend has come to enjoy tea. Go and serve them tea."

"Okay!" The lovely voice came from the wooden puppet again.

After a while, she was heard saying loudly to the new monk, "Good morning, fellow Daoist. I am Xiaoyou from Changle Teahouse."

"What kind of tea would you like to try, fellow Daoist? My teahouse has recently added three new teas: Bilongtian, Boguanglin, and Ansongxiang. They cost one and a half ounces, and three and a half ounces!"

Not a single word was changed from beginning to end, and even the emotions did not fluctuate in the slightest.

Henry Chu raised his eyebrows, thinking about something.

The thin man then smiled and said, "My humble name is Zhang Yuting. I believe that with your ability, you should be able to guess why my daughter is like this."

Chu Xuan nodded slightly, "My body is damaged, my soul is hurt, and I have no choice but to rely on external things."

"The Youquan Wood is indeed an excellent spiritual object for the soul to reside in."

The Youquan Wood is a very rare spiritual object.

It was born in a swamp with rich moisture.

But it can't be just an ordinary swamp, a large number of lives must die.

Only then will it be possible for a Youquan tree to grow.

It cannot be used to refine weapons or elixirs, and its greatest function is to house the soul.

It also has a slight warming effect.

However, it can only be used as a refuge for the soul. If one is further promoted to the state of transformation and the soul transforms into the primordial spirit, the Youquan wood will no longer be used as a refuge.

Even among the cultivators of the demonic path, not many people know about the Youquan Wood.

Chu Xuan has always focused on cultivating merit, and has only a rough understanding of the magic path. However, he is knowledgeable and intelligent, so he knew the existence of the Youquan Tree.

Zhang Yuting smiled, "Some Lianxu Daojuns may not even be able to tell it. Daoyou is truly worthy of being the new master of the Black Tortoise Seal. You can tell at a glance that this is Youquan wood."

Henry Chu raised his eyebrows.

Not many people know that he is the new master of the Xuanwu Seal.

The other party looks like a peaceful teahouse owner, how can we know his identity?

Zhang Yuting took a sip and secretly sent out a fragrance before saying, "Zhang's master is Yu Shu Daojun, and my great master is Ji Feng Tianjun."

Chu Xuan frowned suddenly.

During the previous battle at the Daoxuan River stronghold, Zhao Chungang had mentioned to him the situation of the Yushu Daojun faction.

It is said that Yu Shu Daojun's followers were extremely dissatisfied with his possession of the Xuanwu Seal and unanimously believed that it should be taken back.

Lord Jiefeng did not support it openly, but he did not oppose it either. Many people inside the Wanxing Immortal Palace felt that Lord Jiefeng also meant the same thing.

In Chu Xuan's view, this is just a manifestation of factional struggle.

He didn't want to get involved, so he stayed at home.

I didn't expect that when I came to the teahouse today to listen to some information, I actually met the disciple of Yu Shu Daojun.

Zhang Yuting smiled slightly, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I used to be a disciple of Yushu Daojun, but I am no longer one now."

"The reason I learned about this was because my former junior brothers and sisters mentioned it to me when they came to have tea."

Only then did Henry Chu nod.

Zhang Yuting suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist, since you know this is the Youquan Wood, do you have any way to help my daughter regain her sanity?"

Chu Xuan was puzzled, "Yu Shu Daojun has no way?"

Zhang Yuting shook his head. "Before I came to Xuling Mountain, my daughter suffered a misfortune and had to extract her soul and seal it within the Youquan Tree."

"Jade Book Daoist Master treated me like his own daughter and was willing to help my daughter regain her sanity. However, my daughter was sealed in the Nether Spring Wood for too long, and her sanity was greatly worn away. Jade Book Daoist Master wasted hundreds of years and was unable to do anything, so he finally gave up."

Chu Xuan thought for a long time, and finally shook his head.

He knew about the existence of the Youquan Wood and that it would damage the mind, but he really didn't know how to restore sanity.

The only thing he knew was that his sanity had been damaged, and it would be almost impossible to recover it without great supernatural powers.

Zhang Yuting looked at him intently, "Fellow Daoist, do you know of anything that can restore lost sanity?"

Chu Xuan frowned, his mind racing, and suddenly realized, "Xuanwu Seal?"

Zhang Yuting nodded heavily, "Exactly."

"I'm afraid fellow Daoist still doesn't know the origin of the Black Tortoise Seal."

"I really don't know."

Zhang Yuting said in a deep voice, "Then I will come and help you solve your doubts."

"At the end of the turbulent era, a great power emerged and swept away the enemies outside the domain. His name was the Ancient Emperor."

"The Ancient Emperor has three treasures: the Nine Dragon Drum, the Purifying Fire, and the Ancient Emperor Seal."

"The Nine Dragons' drums have an inspiring effect. When they are drummed, all living things are excited."

"The fire of purification has the power to annihilate. The blazing fire appears and the evil beast is refined."

"The ancient emperor's seal exercises the power of suppression. When the seal is released, disaster will befall the ancestors."

Zhang Yuting continued, "After the Ancient Emperor ascended to heaven, the Nine Dragon Drum and the Purifying Fire were both revered by the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance to deal with the powerful enemies outside the domain."

"Only the Ancient Emperor Seal was destroyed by the Greedy Ancestor and split into four parts, one of which was the Black Tortoise Seal."

"Zhang has read ancient books and learned that the Xuanwu Seal may have the power of nurturing, allowing a soul to regain its former sanity."

"so..."

He looked at Chu Xuan with a deep gaze, "I hope you can lend a helping hand to Zhang."

"As long as you are willing to help, no matter what the outcome, I will owe you a huge favor."

His tone was extremely sincere.

Henry Chu frowned slightly.

No wonder Zhang Yuting showed up on his own initiative.

It turned out that he was thinking about the Xuanwu Seal.

"I didn't know the Black Tortoise Seal had such power," Chu Xuan said in a deep voice, "Even if it did, it would definitely cause considerable damage to the Black Tortoise Seal..."

"A spiritual embryo can become a spiritual treasure with a little bit of sacrifice and refining." Zhang Yuting suddenly raised a finger, his tone serious.

Chu Xuan nodded immediately, "...The loss is not a big deal. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

Zhang Yuting smiled slightly. "I made military achievements in my early years, which is why I was given permission to build a teahouse on Juling Peak."

"As long as we don't encounter a war of extremely high intensity, there is no need to participate in it."

"Whether it's a spiritual embryo or a spiritual treasure, as long as it can restore my daughter's sanity, it's nothing to me."

"Also, Zhang's Changle Teahouse has many cultivators who frequently come and go, so information can be easily exchanged. Fellow Daoist Chu can come here more often and learn what has happened in recent years in just a cup of tea."

Henry Chu couldn't help but nodded, "When will you help my niece Xiaoyou regain her sanity?"

Zhang Yuting smiled, "There's no rush. I need to extract my daughter's soul from the Nether Spring Wooden Puppet, which will take quite a while."

"On that day, Zhang will personally knock on the door."

As he spoke, he took out the Immortal Alliance Order.

Chu Xuan nodded and took out the Immortal Alliance Order, and the two of them clinked their hands.

After reaching the cooperation, Zhang Yuting seemed much happier.

The sadness between his brows also dissipated a lot.

As they talked, they also started talking about tea ceremony.

Each star has its own unique spiritual tea.

Chu Xuan started with Kumaofeng, then talked about Xiangxuebai, Wulikanhua, Dalongpao, Qiongding Ganlu and other spiritual teas.

Zhang Yuting was delighted to hear this. He had not expected to meet a fellow tea lover. He also shared his own views on the taste and color of various spiritual teas.

The two had a very pleasant conversation.

Finally, Zhang Yuting packed more than a pound of Bilongtian, Boguanglin, and Ansongxiang and stuffed them into Chu Xuan's arms.

He sighed, "Zhang originally came to trouble you regarding my daughter's matter, but I didn't expect you to be a fellow Taoist."

"Fate, it's wonderful!"

Henry Chu also chuckled a few times.

After a moment, Chu Xuan asked about the intelligence of these days.

Although Zhang Yuting had the privilege of no longer participating in the war, he was well aware of what was happening outside the teahouse.

I will tell you everything now.

Henry Chu nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Something caught his attention.

Dust beast.

Zhang Yuting smiled and said, "Daoyou should have been to the battlefield outside the domain. Beasts such as the Micro-Underworld Crocodile, the Cangyou Falcon, and the Dark Devouring Moth are all Dust Beasts."

"They have always been parasitic on those huge evil beasts, like dust, hence their name."

Henry Chu raised his eyebrows, thinking of the past events on the battlefield outside the domain, and suddenly realized it.

Zhang Yuting raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It seems that fellow Daoist has already guessed it. The vast majority of out-of-body cultivators are unaware of this."

"The battlefield outside the domain is actually a pile of greedy corpses."

Zhang Yuting continued, "It is precisely because of this that the Dust Beasts can emerge from the caves in the extraterritorial battlefield in droves, launching attacks on various cities time and time again."

"The Tantun can be said to be the king among the evil beasts. The Tantun clan will not fall for ten thousand years after death, and will not rot for ten thousand years after death."

"After the flesh and blood have decayed, it will take tens of thousands of years for the bones to decay into ash."

"During this process, dust beasts will be born continuously."

"This is also one of the reasons why the extraterritorial battlefield exists."

Henry Chu exhaled lightly, "Suppress it."

Zhang Yuting nodded, "Exactly!"

Chu Xuan suddenly looked out the window and said, "So, the Eternal Battlefield is also made up of greedy bones?"

Zhang Yuting nodded, "And it's not just any ordinary Greedy Swallow, it's the Greedy Troublemaker, the one that was killed by the Ancient Emperor himself."

"Because of this, the Greedy Clan extremely hates the Ancient Emperor and the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance."

Henry Chu smiled and nodded, "Their so-called 'holy ancestors' were trampled under our feet like ants. Anyone would be angry if their ancestors were trampled underfoot by others."

"However, the recent decrease in the number of dust beasts is indeed a big deal."

Zhang Yuting asked with great interest, "What do you think the evil beast is planning?"

Henry Chu nodded, "A premonition."

Zhang Yuting, "Perhaps, but it could also be just normal fluctuations. After all, dust beasts are as numerous as cattle hairs."

As they were talking, two people suddenly came walking quickly towards them.

As he walked over, he called out, "Brother, Junior Sister and I are here to see you! Senior Brother Yun asked us to bring you a bag of spiritual tea!"

In less than a few breaths, the two of them came in front of Chu Xuan and Zhang Yuting.

Chu Xuan took a glance and saw that the man was tall and majestic, and the woman was slender and graceful, both of them had good looks.

"Brother...eh?"

The woman was about to speak when she saw a strange face and was a little surprised.

The man recognized Henry Chu at a glance and immediately showed hostility, "Is it you?"

The woman asked in surprise, "Senior Brother Zi, do you recognize him?"

The man said in a deep voice, "He is the one who holds the Xuanwu Seal."

The woman was even more surprised, and her eyes looked at Henry Chu with a bit more hostility.

Zhang Yuting said calmly, "Zi Shi, Shen Ling, please don't get too excited in my teahouse."

The two then looked away and whispered, "Yes."

Zhang Yuting continued, "I advise you not to have any improper thoughts about Fellow Daoist Chu."

"Even if you two go together, you're no match for him."

"At least Yun Tianjiao should take action himself."

Zi Shi and Shen Ling were both stunned.

Shen Ling said dissatisfiedly, "Brother, why are you so stubborn? And how could this Chu Xuan be a match for the eldest brother?"

Zi Shi also nodded, "Big Brother had already reached the state of Out-of-body Perfection decades ago, and he could have reached the state of Refining Void long ago, but he had just been accumulating energy."

"This Chu Xuan was just lucky enough to get the approval of the Xuanwu Seal..."

Zhang Yuting said calmly, "I don't like noise. If you two are here to say these things, please leave Changle Teahouse."

Zi Shi and Shen Ling looked at each other, shook their heads, and walked out of the teahouse.

Henry Chu said casually, "It seems that you don't have a good relationship with Yu Shu Daojun's disciples."

Zhang Yuting was silent for a few breaths before he said, "The time when Zhang performed a great deed, I was actually carrying out a mission with Yun Tianjiao."

"We encountered a Void who came to the Eternal Battlefield to hunt monks for their coming-of-age ceremony."

"Yun Tianjiao got scared and left me to run away alone."

"I tried my best to kill that Hollow."

Zhang Yuting paused before saying, "Actually, if he had stayed and fought alongside me, I wouldn't have lost two clones, a spiritual weapon, and a leg and an arm."

"Afterwards, Daojun Yushu asked me not to publicize this matter for the sake of his reputation and Yun Tianjiao's future."

"I agree. After all, we've been master and apprentice for many years."

When talking about these words, Zhang Yuting's expression remained calm, as if he was telling someone else's story.

Chu Xuan also sighed lightly, but didn't say much.

No wonder Zhang Yuting had a complicated expression when he mentioned Yu Shu Daojun.

It turns out that there are these reasons.

For a cultivator who has achieved out-of-body experience, the loss of the physical body, the shattering of spiritual weapons, and the death of the clone are all earth-shattering events.

This means that it will be almost impossible to have another chance to reach the realm of refining emptiness in the future.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Fellow Daoist, please go back. I also need to start extracting my daughter's soul." Zhang Yuting raised his head and smiled.

"This is the spirit embryo."

As he spoke, he pushed over a set of inner armor.

There was a hazy precious light on it, which clearly showed that it was not an ordinary object.

Henry Chu laughed dumbly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll take the things and do nothing?"

Zhang Yuting smiled and said, "You are not that kind of person. I can tell."

Henry Chu smiled and nodded, "Okay."

He stood up and left.

However, as soon as he walked out of Changle Teahouse, he saw Zi Shi and Shen Ling blocking him.

Zi Shi said in a deep voice, "Chu Xuan, are you willing to fight with me in the arena?"

Henry Chu kept walking and said calmly, "With your strength, you are not qualified to fight me."

Shen Ling scolded, "Mr. Chu, you are too arrogant!"

Zi Shi held her down and whispered, "Fighting is not allowed on Juling Peak. Follow him. As long as we leave Juling Peak, you will have to fight even if he doesn't want to!"

Shen Ling then nodded.

However, just as they followed Chu Xuan out of the Giant Spirit Peak, they saw Chu Xuan instantly turn into a streak of blood and disappear into the horizon.

Both of them opened their mouths wide, dumbfounded.

This kind of speed is probably not something that an ordinary out-of-body cultivator can achieve.

Could it be that what Zhang Yuting said was true?

Both of them together are no match for Henry Chu?

Shen Ling stammered, "Senior Brother Zi, are we still going to challenge him?"

Zi Shi licked his dry lips and said, "Don't worry, maybe he is just good at escaping."

"Let's go talk to the eldest brother about this first."

"Okay, I agree." Shen Ling nodded repeatedly.

…

Lingyun Valley.

Chu Xuan waved his hand casually, brewed some hot tea, and took out the spiritual embryo that Zhang Yuting had given him.

Among the magic weapons and spiritual tools, the importance and value of defensive spiritual tools are higher than those of offensive spiritual tools.

After all, everyone needs a trump card to save their lives.

The inner armor that Zhang Yuting took out was called "Blue Sea Spirit Turtle Armor".

It is made from the shell of the blue sea turtle.

As long as it is attacked, it will automatically appear and transform into a blue sea turtle to protect itself.

Like a reef in the sea, it stays in the water in all seasons.

It is also like a green pine on a cliff, no matter which direction the wind blows.

As Zhang Yuting said, there is spirituality in it.

With just a little bit of refining, it can become a real low-grade spiritual treasure.

"This is a great gift."

Chu Xuan was sighing as he was performing the ritual.

This way, he has another trump card.

And there is no need to activate it, it will trigger automatically when encountering danger.

Where can I find such a good spiritual treasure?

"but..."

Chu Xuan looked at the white jade turtle in the lake that was kicking its four legs to chase fish and catch shrimps, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Can this thing really restore Zhang Yuting's daughter's sanity?

He was skeptical.

Juling Peak, a mountainside planted with willow trees.

Three monks were sitting around a round table drinking and discussing the difficulties they encountered during their cultivation.

The three people were none other than Yu Shu Daojun's eldest disciple Yun Tianjiao, second disciple Li Qingfeng, and third disciple Qiu Lianshui.

The word "Tianjiao" is not Yun Tianjiao's title.

His surname is Yun and his name is Tianjiao.

Yun Tianjiao is at the highest level, and has already been in the state of out-of-body perfection for decades.

Whenever the three of them discussed philosophy, he was always the one to clear up the confusions of the other two.

Li Qingfeng was filled with emotion, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

In the path of cultivation, those who achieve the most come first.

Although Yun Tianjiao is much younger than the two of them, his realm is higher than theirs.

What's more, Yun Tianjiao also helped them solve their doubts.

Then we should show due courtesy.

Yun Tianjiao smiled warmly, "There's no need to be so polite between brothers. Going back a hundred years, you two were both my senior brothers and sisters."

"I just took advantage of my better qualifications."

Such humble words made Li Qingfeng and Qiu Lianshui feel very comfortable.

It is already a bit embarrassing to ask questions to a monk who is younger than you.

If the other party is arrogant and looks down on them, it will make them feel even more uncomfortable.

People generally dislike geniuses who are arrogant because of their talent.

The same is true for monks.

At this moment, Yun Tianjiao suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Zi Shi and Shen Ling are back."

He casually pointed his finger, and a ray of light flew out of his hand, lifting the restriction.

After a while, Zi Shi and Shen Ling quickly came to the three of them.

"Second senior brother, third senior sister, you are here too!" Shen Ling said happily.

Li Qingfeng noticed something was wrong with Zishi and asked casually, "Zishi, what's wrong?"

Zi Shi and Shen Ling looked at each other and told each other everything that happened in Changle Teahouse.

When Yun Tianjiao heard the name Zhang Yuting, he looked a little unnatural, but he hid it well.

Qiu Lianshui frowned, "What's wrong with Senior Brother Zhang? Even if he voluntarily left the sect, he's still our senior brother. Why is he turning his elbow outward?"

Li Qingfeng seemed to be thinking, "After Senior Brother Zhang left the sect, his only thought was about his daughter."

"Maybe he has something to ask of Henry Chu."

Yun Tianjiao tapped the table lightly and suddenly said, "I've heard from my master that the Black Tortoise Seal seems to have the ability to restore a cultivator's sanity."

"I'm afraid that Senior Brother Zhang really needs Henry Chu's help, so he stands on Henry Chu's side."

Zi Shi and Shen Ling both looked unhappy when they heard this.

"Then what should we do? Just let Chu Xuan possess the Xuanwu Seal? He is just in the out-of-body state, how can he be qualified to possess such a magical weapon!" Shen Ling said dissatisfiedly.

Zi Shi did not forget to flatter him, "That's right, at least you have to be the eldest senior brother to be qualified."

Shen Ling continued, "We wanted to chase him, but that guy's evasion technique was so fast that he disappeared in an instant."

Yun Tianjiao said calmly, "Don't worry about it. He will have to hand over the Xuanwu Seal sooner or later."

His tone was filled with strong confidence.

Li Qingfeng and the other three nodded repeatedly.

He thought to himself that he was worthy of being the chief disciple under the master, a talented cultivator who could break through to the realm of refining emptiness at any time.

These words coming from Yun Tianjiao are more convincing than coming from them.

Qiu Lianshui covered her mouth with her hands and smiled, "Don't let such a small matter ruin your mood. Zishi, Shen Ling, while Senior Brother Yun is still here, quickly ask him a few questions about his cultivation journey. Don't let him get away."

Zi Shi and Shen Ling's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yun Tianjiao laughed heartily, "Ask, Senior Brother will answer your questions."

While solving the puzzle, his thoughts drifted far away.

That is the Xuanwu Seal.

It is part of the ancient emperor's seal.

Whoever can possess it and gain its recognition, wouldn't that be equivalent to becoming one of the ancient emperor's successors?

If he could gain the approval of the Black Tortoise Seal, he would certainly hold greater weight in Lord Jiefeng's heart in the future.

Maybe, it would be easy to break through the barrier from the out-of-body state to the refining void state!

The reason why he was stuck in the state of out-of-body perfection for decades was not entirely because he wanted to accumulate strength.

There was also the inner demon formed by abandoning Zhang Yuting and running away alone.

Although the matter was suppressed by Yu Shu Daojun and not spread, only the three of them knew about it.

But the inner demon is the inner demon, and it will always exist unless it is resolved.

"Xuanwu Seal..." Yun Tianjiao sighed in his heart.

…

Lingyun Valley, in the blink of an eye, it was three years later.

"This time I have been in seclusion for thirty years, and I can finally say that I have achieved the state of leaving the body."

Chu Xuan strode out of the cave and exhaled lightly.

He had previously taken a large amount of Tianqiao Yuandan and Shengling Yuandan, and was just one step away from achieving the state of leaving the body.

But I didn't expect that this final kick would take thirty years.

At this time, he noticed that a sound transmission talisman was spinning around in the formation in the valley like a headless fly.

Just a casual move.

Zhang Yuting's voice was heard immediately.

"Zhang has everything ready, just waiting for your help."

Chu Xuan looked at the time and saw that it was a sound transmission note from half a year ago.

He immediately took out the Immortal Alliance Order and quickly contacted Zhang Yuting.

The two of them agreed on a time in no time.

The venue was not chosen as Changle Teahouse, but Zhang Yuting went there in person.

A moment later, Lingyun Valley welcomed a guest.

"Fellow Daoist Chu has chosen a nice place with beautiful mountains and rivers." Zhang Yuting laughed and bowed.

Henry Chu also smiled and bowed, "It really took me a long time to choose."

Zhang Yuting couldn't hide his excitement, "Then let's get started now."

He took out a black gem.

Chu Xuan could tell at a glance that this thing was the Soul-Nourishing Jade.

If monks at a lower level wear it for a long time, it can nourish their souls over time.

I guess the soul of Zhang Yuting's daughter is among them.

"I don't know about the Xuanwu Seal..." Zhang Yuting said in a deep voice.

Henry Chu nodded, "Come with me."

The two of them walked one after the other and arrived at the small lake in Lingyun Valley.

When Chu Xuan first opened up the cave, he built a small stone pavilion by the lake.

Compared with the small pavilion beside the pond in Dayan Mountain in the Dark Realm, this small stone pavilion is naturally a little simple.

After all, Chu Xuan took a whole piece of rock and smashed it out with the Soul-Killing Lock.

The two stood in the stone pavilion.

Henry Chu gestured for Zhang Yuting to look towards the small lake.

Zhang Yuting looked around for a while before saying, "There's only a white jade turtle and some magical fish and shrimp in the lake, nothing else."

"Fellow Daoist Chu..."

Chu Xuan coughed lightly, "That white jade turtle is the spirit of the Black Tortoise Seal."

Zhang Yuting, "Ah?"

He was stunned for a long time, and finally said, "Fellow Daoist Chu, please don't joke with me."

"It is urgent for my daughter to regain her sanity..."

Chu Xuan shook his head, "Why should I joke with you? It is the spirit of the Xuanwu Seal."

"But I really don't know where the Xuanwu Seal is. I have to ask it."

Chu Xuan casually took out a piece of big snake meat.

The white jade turtle that was chasing fish and catching shrimps suddenly rushed onto the shore, came to his side, and bleated.

Zhang Yuting's face twitched.

Could this white jade turtle have been raised by a sheep mother?

Why does he just bleat when he opens his mouth?

Is this thing really the spirit of the Black Tortoise Seal?

Henry Chu said helplessly, "Don't say you don't believe it, I don't believe it either."

"When you told me that this thing could restore Xiaoyou's sanity, I was skeptical."

Zhang Yuting fell silent.

He didn't expect that the Xuanwu Seal would be such a thing.

"Give me the Soul-Nourishing Jade." Chu Xuan stretched out his hand.

Zhang Yuting clenched the Soul-Nourishing Jade tightly, then slowly released it and placed it in Chu Xuan's palm.

Henry Chu took the Soul Nurturing Jade and placed it in front of the white jade turtle, and said solemnly, "Turtle, do you have any way to restore her sanity?"

The white jade turtle stared at the big toad meat in his other hand and kept making a sound.

Chu Xuan had no choice but to feed it a piece of meat first.

After eating the giant snake meat, the white jade turtle was immediately satisfied. It looked at the soul-nourishing jade and bleated again.

Zhang Yuting felt hopeful. "What did it say?"

Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something, and said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, no matter what you see next, don't be surprised."

Zhang Yuting was stunned and said subconsciously, "Okay..."

Then, he saw the white jade turtle swallow the soul-nourishing jade in one gulp!

Zhang Yuting's pupils suddenly shrank, and the long sword at his waist almost slipped out of his hand.

Fortunately, Chu Xuan reminded him just now, and he was able to suppress his instinct.

"Could the Xuanwu Seal be in its body? I have never heard of the existence of a physical entity of a weapon spirit." Zhang Yuting said in a deep voice.

Chu Xuan shook his head, "Fellow Daoist Zhang also said that the Xuanwu Seal is part of the Ancient Emperor Seal. A treasure used by such a powerful person must be magical."

"It's normal that common sense cannot explain it."

Zhang Yuting nodded. "What's next?"

Henry Chu pointed to the stone bench next to him and said, "Sit down and wait. This may take some time."

He poured a pot of bitter Maofeng tea.

Zhang Yuting also knew that he couldn't be impatient, so he could only take the tea and sip it carefully.

The two of them chatted while tasting.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Although Zhang Yuting had not participated in the battle for a long time, he knew a lot about the secrets of the Eternal Battlefield.

Henry Chu listened with great interest.

Especially the part about the hollow man, which surprised him even more.

Chu Xuan sighed softly, "No wonder the Void People rarely show up in the Eternal Battlefield. They actually treat this place as a trial ground and the cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance as prey?"

Zhang Yuting nodded, "Yes, the power of the Xuren clan is probably far beyond our imagination."

"There is very little information about the Void People nowadays, and the Immortal Alliance also intends to hide this information."

"That's all we can see."

"But one thing is certain: if those Hollows who are undergoing their coming-of-age rites die in battle here, no other Hollows will come to seek revenge."

"If you kill the young one, the older one will come, and if you kill the older one, the old one will come."

"Moreover, the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance also gave a lot of military merits for killing the Void Man."

Chu Xuan nodded in understanding.

This is interesting.

At this moment, the white jade turtle, which was sleeping with its head and limbs tucked in, suddenly bleated.

Then he spat out a black gem.

Then he called out to Chu Xuan as if to ask for credit.

Chu Xuan knew it well, so he immediately took out a large piece of water snake meat and threw it over.

The white jade turtle pounced on it like a hungry tiger and swallowed it whole, then turned around and went back to the depths of the lake, never to be seen again.

Zhang Yuting was so excited that he picked up the black jade in one step and wiped it clean with a soft and clean white cloth.

Then, he solemnly separated a strand of his spiritual consciousness and slowly probed into it.

Henry Chu did not approach, but just watched from a distance.

After a while, he suddenly saw that the corners of Zhang Yuting's eyes were red, and two lines of tears suddenly fell.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, my daughter has fully recovered her consciousness."

"I can never repay such a great favor in my lifetime!"

Zhang Yuting took a deep breath and knelt on one knee towards Chu Xuan.

His expression was extremely solemn.

Henry Chu helped him up and said, "It's just a deal. There's no need for you to do this, Fellow Daoist Zhang."

Only then did Zhang Yuting get up.

The sadness between his brows disappeared, and he seemed to have a second spring in his life.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, I have to leave first."

"I need to refine a physical body for Xiaoyou as soon as possible."

"Xiaoyou loves braised purple ling the most. That kind of spiritual fish is so precious. I have to quickly save up some merit to buy a few and raise them!"

"Also, Xiaoyou likes pink beds and azure flowers. I haven't prepared any of these yet. I have to hurry and make them."

Zhang Yuting spoke of these things as if they were his own treasures, and his tone was very urgent.

Henry Chu smiled and nodded, "Go."

Zhang Yuting bowed to Chu Xuan again and said, "If you have any difficulties in the future, please come to me!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

He was so anxious that he wished he could appear in his cave in an instant.

Chu Xuan looked at Zhang Yuting's departing figure and smiled.

A father who deeply loves his daughter.

This is all he knows about Zhang Yuting.

He couldn't help but recall the past.

I recalled all the memories about my original self that I gained when I traveled through time.

The original body's parents also loved their children as deeply as Zhang Yuting did.

Later, the original body's spiritual roots were detected and luckily he was taken in by the Wuji Sect.

That day, the mortal parents slaughtered chickens and geese and gave the original body a very luxurious meal.

A few years later, the original person had achieved nothing in his studies and returned home to visit his family.

However, he discovered that the small mountain village where his parents lived had been ravaged by evil spirits, and none of the more than 300 people in the village survived.

The original body secretly investigated the matter and eventually found the murderer.

It was a Qi-refining senior brother from the Wuji Sect.

What happened next is easy to guess.

The original body lay dormant for a long time, and successfully launched a sneak attack, killing the senior brother, but he himself was also seriously injured and died.

It was from that time that Chu Xuan's soul traveled through and entered this body.

"Such a distant memory, yet it suddenly resurfaced."

Chu Xuan shook his head and wanted to return to the Mirror of the Heavens to see the situation in the Psychic World.

At this moment, the Immortal Alliance Order on his waist suddenly emitted a deep and powerful sound.

"Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance's Forced Recruitment Order: Billions of evil beasts and dust beasts are invading. All cultivators must immediately descend the mountain to meet the enemy!"

Chu Xuan looked shocked.

His previous guess really came true.

Now, a large group of dust beasts are actually attacking.

Chu Xuan frowned deeply, and immediately took control of Qiankun City, brought his free demon body, and headed straight for Juling Peak.

The forced conscription order requires the original body and the clone to be dispatched together, and no disobedience is allowed. Violators will be punished severely.

Daring to disobey the forced conscription order of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance on the Eternal Battlefield really shows that he can't distinguish between the big and small kings.

…

Giant Spirit Peak.

When Chu Xuan arrived here, groups of cultivators had already arrived.

He soon discovered Li Lingshu, Shangguan Youlian, Mu Qingfeng and others.

I also saw Zhao Chungang, Chu Xuanji and others from the Wanxing Immortal Palace.

"Chu Xuan, long time no see!"

A female voice sounded.

Chu Xuan looked back and saw that it was Dan Jieli.

"You're here too?" Chu Xuan chuckled.

Dan Jie Li said helplessly, "Yes, I was also recruited. I came here as soon as I finished the task at hand."

"Chu Xuan, let me ask you a question about cultivation."

Henry Chu nodded.

Although he only has a rough understanding of the magic path, he still has some insights into the practice of the magic path.

"It's just...this...If my lifespan is almost over, how can I continue to practice?" Dan Jieli said hesitantly.

Henry Chu, "Ah?"

Dan Jieli smiled awkwardly when he saw Henry Chu like this.

Chu Xuan was stunned and didn't react.

After a while, he asked, "I remember that you practiced a technique that traded your lifespan for cultivation?"

Dan Jieli nodded, "Yes, he went too far in the end, and lost 90% of his lifespan in one go."

"I'm already in the late stage of the Out-of-Body Realm, not far from the Perfection, but I only have about three years left to live..."

"I feel that if I don't think of a solution, I may not have a chance to complete my out-of-body experience."

These words made Chu Xuan laugh.

There is no chance at all.

"Is there nothing you can do?" Dan Jieli asked in a low voice, "I don't dare tell my master about this, for fear that he will worry."

Chu Xuan thought for a long time, and finally said, "There is a way."

Dan Jieli's eyes lit up, "You say."

Henry Chu lowered his voice and asked, "Do you know the method of greedy swallowing?"

Dan Jie Li was stunned. "Fallen Method? I have some impression of it. It is said to be the rarest kind of Fallen Method."

"Ever since the ancient emperor killed the ancestor of the Greedy Tun clan, the bloodline of the Greedy Tun clan has gradually declined, and even with it, no one has practiced the Fallen Law anymore."

Chu Xuan continued, "The Greedy Devouring Method devours all living beings that can be devoured to increase cultivation."

"In fact, it's not just your cultivation that can be increased, but also your soul, body, and the most elusive lifespan."

"If you practice this method, your life span will increase, and you will be able to benefit the magic technique."

"With your status, it shouldn't be difficult to get the Greedy Devouring Method."

Dan Jieli immediately understood, "I understand, you want me to practice the Greedy Swallowing Technique."

"But... this method requires the devouring of a cultivator to practice..."

Her eyes were filled with struggle. "The reason I used my own lifespan to exchange for my cultivation is because I didn't want to rob others of their lifespan."

Henry Chu frowned, "Who told you to plunder other people's lifespans? Who do you think I am? A demon cultivator?"

Dan Jieli's eyes widened, "Ah? Aren't you?"

Chu Xuan shook his head, "I have always focused on cultivating virtue, and I only have a rough understanding of the magic path."

"My superficial dabbling in the ways of magic is only for the purpose of fighting against them."

"If you can't walk in the abyss, how can you know the dangers of the abyss?"

Dan Jieli opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Chu Xuan gazed at the Eternal Battlefield and pointed into the void. "The Greedy Clan has an extremely long lifespan. Newly born Greedy Cub can live for thousands of years. If they reach the level of the Greedy Disaster Ancestor, their lifespan will be as long as the heavens and the earth."

"However, the number of the Greedy Clan is very small, and it will be difficult for you to find them."

"Next to the Greedy Clan is the Abyssal Dragon Clan, whose lifespan is also very long."

Henry Chu said calmly, "This is the clear path I pointed out to you."

Dan Jieli's eyes lit up, "I understand!"

She dug into her pocket, took out a golden stone and quietly stuffed it into Henry Chu's pocket. "This is my thank you gift. See you later!"

Henry Chu raised his eyebrows and accepted it.

Although he only took a glance at it, he already knew what it was.

The cocoon of the ancient exotic six-winged golden silkworm.

At first glance it looks like a golden gem.

Its hardness is comparable to that of many spiritual minerals.

The six-winged golden silkworm is a terrifying poisonous insect that is known as one of the six evil poisons of ancient times, along with the Fiery Sun Bee Queen, the Nether Bee and other poisonous insects.

Unfortunately, that period was also the golden age of ancient monks.

The silk of the six-winged golden silkworm can be used to refine spiritual treasures, protecting the souls of cultivators in the void so that they can roam in the void without being easily threatened by the void.

Therefore, the six-winged golden silkworm, one of the six evil poisons in ancient times, was killed to extinction.

In any case, according to the records of ancient monks, the six-winged golden silkworm has become extinct.

Unexpectedly, Dan Jieli actually got a silk cocoon.

However, this is acceptable.

After all, the disciples of Wanxing Immortal Palace who are training outside are either collecting secrets or on their way to collect secrets.

Finding extinct ancient alien insects is nothing to be surprised about.

"The cocoon of this six-winged golden silkworm is already lifeless, but if it is given to the Heavenly Cave for refining and absorption, there might be a surprise."

Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.

The six-winged golden silkworm is a poisonous insect that can fly in the void. Because of this, its silk can protect the soul of a cultivator in the void refining stage.

If Tianku could refine this cocoon and gain the ability to travel in the void, it would be a huge profit.

From now on, his soul will leave his body and travel in the void, and Tianku will be able to accompany him.

This is more valuable than anything else.

At this time, two Hedao Tianjuns suddenly floated in the sky, their robes fluttering, and their eyes were vague, as if they were fighting with an invisible enemy.

More than ten light curtains flew out from their bodies and appeared in front of the monks.

Passing through the light curtain is the basin at the foot of the mountain.

"kill!"

I don't know who shouted first.

Everyone crossed the light curtain and headed down the mountain.

Chu Xuan also followed immediately.

The moment he passed through the light curtain, he felt that his spiritual awareness had also been enhanced.

Although it is only temporary, it has at least been strengthened by more than 30%.

"This should be the method used by the Heavenly Lord to strengthen everyone." Chu Xuan nodded in understanding.

He immediately rushed to the basin at the foot of the mountain with the free demon body.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At this moment, three heavy drum sounds were suddenly heard in succession.

Chu Xuan couldn't help but look up at the sky.

He saw a huge drum appearing in the sky above Xu Ling Mountain.

There were three real dragons circling around the big drum.

The sound of dragon roars continued to spread, stirring endlessly.

The mountains, rivers and lakes also resonate with it, like the sound of gold and jade.

As the sound of the drums spread, his blood and spiritual power seemed to boil.

Deep in my heart, there is an endless desire to fight.

"Nine Dragon Drum!"

"I didn't expect that even the Nine Dragon Drum would show up this time!"

The monks also discovered the big drum and were amazed.

Henry Chu raised his eyebrows.

I didn't expect this to be the Kowloon Drum.

Everything Zhang Yuting said was indeed true.

The Nine Dragon Drum has an inspiring effect. Once the drum is drummed, all living things will be excited!

One drumbeat is enough to excite countless lives.

Now that three drum sounds have sounded in succession, Chu Xuan already feels that he has far surpassed the state of out-of-body perfection.

No matter what you call this mysterious temporary state.

Whether it's half-step to the Void Refinement Realm, or the Great Perfection of the Out-of-Body Realm, or the peak of the Out-of-Body Realm...

But there is no doubt about it.

With the blessing of the three drum sounds, he is now far more powerful than the ordinary out-of-body experience.

The other cultivators were all in the same mood, feeling the blood and spiritual power surging in their bodies, and were extremely excited.

Chu Xuan couldn't help but think of what Zhang Yuting had said to him.

At the end of the turbulent era, the nine evil ancestors all rushed to the eternal battlefield.

That day, the sky was falling and the earth was splitting, and the situation changed drastically.

The connection between the void and this world has become blurred.

Billions of evil beasts may descend upon any part of the world of immortal cultivation at any time.

But the ancient emperor personally beat the Nine Dragon Drum, causing it to vibrate nine times.

The strength of tens of millions of monks in the Eternal Battlefield soared.

Leaving the body is equivalent to refining the void!

Refining the void is equivalent to merging with the Tao!

To be in harmony with the Dao is equivalent to overcoming a tribulation!

Billions of evil beasts that were about to descend were forced back.

"Three dragons appearing together already have such power."

"Nine dragons appear at once, what a spectacle!"

Chu Xuan was amazed and sighed endlessly.
