124: Did Lu Yuan collude with a demonic witch?
"You want treasures?"
Lu Yuan did not rise, merely taking a small sip of Spirit Tea: "Then it depends on whether you have the life to take them."
"Arrogant!"
Tian Lan Daoist Lord snorted coldly, his gaze sinister: "You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for bullying the weak!"
"Everyone, let's move! A quick battle!"
Before his voice faded, the Profound Origin Water Control Banner in his hand shook violently.
Whoosh!
The Weak Water Celestial River, spanning the Void Realm, instantly surged, transforming into a black water Dragon that opened its huge maw, devouring towards the flying boat.
Qianjizi was not to be outdone; as his chess pieces scattered, countless Puppets on the Heavenly Net Chessboard instantly came to life, surging towards the flying boat like a tide.
"Husband, let me."
Gu Qingxue, who had been standing silently beside Lu Yuan, suddenly spoke.
"Alright." Lu Yuan nodded slightly.
Gu Qingxue stepped lightly, slowly walking out from the flying boat.
Facing the overwhelming attack, her beautiful face showed no fear, only a chilling killing intent.
"A mere little girl in the Soul Transformation Stage dares to overreach herself?"
Seeing Gu Qingxue step forward to fight, Tian Lan Daoist Lord and Qianjizi's eyes flashed with disdain.
In their view, this was nothing more than seeking death.
However, the next moment.
"True Immortal Image of the Lunar Yin, rise!"
Gu Qingxue's red lips parted slightly, and her hands formed a seal.
Buzz!
An ancient bronze mirror flew out from her body, suspended above her head — the taiyin treasure mirror!
As the majestic Soul Transformation magical power within her was injected, the bronze mirror instantly erupted with an extremely dazzling silver divine light.
Within that divine light, a phantom of a woman, ten thousand zhang tall, clad in a starry river feather robe, and crowned with a laurel wreath, slowly manifested behind her.
True Immortal Image of the Lunar Yin!
As this Dharma Idol appeared, the temperature between heaven and earth instantly dropped to absolute zero.
The originally surging Weak Water Celestial River, upon contact with the Taiyin divine light, actually emitted crisp cracking sounds.
In just a single breath.
The black water Dragon, powerful enough to crush mountains, was completely frozen into a massive ice sculpture, suspended in mid-air, unable to advance even an inch!
Not only that.
The extreme cold continued to spread.
On Qianjizi's Heavenly Net Chessboard, those Puppets that had moved like the wind now seemed to be under a stasis spell, their surfaces covered with a thick layer of frost, their movements becoming incredibly stiff, eventually turning into ice sculptures.
Even the immense Chessboard Domain, under the erosion of this Taiyin power, operated sluggishly, like a dead game!
One move!
Just one move simultaneously resolved the offensives of two great Void Refining Great Powers!
"What?"
Everyone present's pupils suddenly constricted, their faces revealing expressions of disbelief.
"This... what kind of Dharma Idol is this?"
"And that mirror... that pressure, could it be... a Transcendent Spiritual Treasure?!"
Fire Virtue Daoist Lord stared intensely at the taiyin treasure mirror, his eyes nearly popping out, his breathing becoming incredibly rapid.
A Transcendent Spiritual Treasure!
This was a supreme treasure that even Void Refining Great Powers like them dreamed of, yet it was in the hands of a mere little girl in the Soul Transformation Stage?
"Such a waste of heavenly resources! This is simply a waste of heavenly resources!"
Greed frantically grew in everyone's hearts.
"You are... Azure Cloud Sect Master, Gu Qingxue?"
Da Yan Daoist Lord, who had been silent, finally recognized Gu Qingxue's identity, a glint flashing in his eyes.
"So it's someone from the Azure Cloud Sect."
Upon hearing this, Chi Xiao Daoist Lord's initial apprehension instantly dissipated considerably, replaced by an air of arrogant superiority.
The Azure Cloud Sect was merely a newly rising Soul Transformation force in the Zhao State, with shallow foundations. How could it compare to the Ten Gates of the Immortal Dao, whose Legacies spanned tens of thousands of years?
"Little girl, this Venerable One advises you to obediently hand over the Transcendent Spiritual Treasure in your possession."
Chi Xiao Daoist Lord said imperiously: "Such a precious treasure, if it falls into your hands, will only bring you mortal danger. Entrust it to us for safekeeping, and perhaps your Azure Cloud Sect's Dao Legacy can be preserved."
"Safekeeping?"
Gu Qingxue sneered, the taiyin treasure mirror in her hand shining even brighter: "If you want it, come and get it with your life!"
"Stubborn and unyielding!"
Chi Xiao Daoist Lord's face darkened: "Although you possess a Transcendent Spiritual Treasure, you are ultimately just one person, and your cultivation is only at the Soul Transformation Stage. This Venerable One wants to see how many of us you can withstand working together?"
"One person?"
Just then, a clear, cold voice rang out.
"What if you add this Venerable One?"
Another figure slowly walked out from the flying boat.
Clad in white, with a head of silver hair, her face was exquisitely beautiful yet exuded a chilling aloofness that kept people at a thousand li's distance.
Guanghan Palace Master, Fairy Lengyue!
As she stepped out, a powerful pressure belonging to the Late-Stage Void Refining swept out without reservation, standing as an equal to the Aura of Chi Xiao Daoist Lord and the others.
"Guanghan Palace Master? Fairy Lengyue?"
Tian Lan Daoist Lord's face instantly became incredibly complex upon seeing this woman.
He recognized at a glance that this was the woman his deceased brother, Cang Lan Daoist Lord, had desperately pursued for a thousand years.
"Leng Yue! My brother Cang Lan perished in your Beihan Dao Domain a few days ago, are you aware of this?"
Tian Lan Daoist Lord sternly questioned: "How exactly did he die? Was it your Guanghan Palace's doing?!"
Facing the interrogation, Fairy Lengyue's expression remained indifferent, not even glancing at him directly.
"What does your brother's life or death have to do with me?"
This cold attitude completely enraged Tian Lan Daoist Lord.
"Good, good, good! What a cold-blooded slut!"
Tian Lan Daoist Lord laughed in extreme anger: "Since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, today I will avenge my brother. I'll kill you, this slut, first, then destroy your Guanghan Palace!"
"Just a rabble of incompetents."
Da Yan Daoist Lord stroked the sword box behind him, his expression arrogant: "Since you've all come, then let's send you all on your way together."
"Buzz!"
Just then.
On the flying boat, a third powerful Aura surged forth.
Su Yueli, in a purple dress, exuding natural charm, slowly walked to Gu Qingxue's side.
Although she didn't speak, the tangible Early Stage Void Refining pressure caused the five people opposite her to slightly change their expressions.
Another Void Refining cultivator!
The Azure Cloud Sect's foundation seemed much deeper than they had imagined!
"Is that... Hehuan Sect Master Su Yueli?"
Fire Virtue Daoist Lord, sharp-eyed, recognized Su Yueli's identity at a glance, and immediately, as if seizing some handle, he pointed at her and shouted:
"Good! I knew there was a reason why this Azure Cloud Sect suddenly rose; it turns out they colluded with a Demonic Path demoness!"
"Su Yueli, as a Sect Master of one of the Six Demonic Sects, you dare to openly violate the agreement between the Immortal and Demonic Paths, trespassing into our Righteous Path territory!"
"Today, we shall act on behalf of the heavens, slaying demons and eradicating evil!"
Chi Xiao Daoist Lord and the others were also filled with righteous indignation, as if standing on the moral high ground.
"Slaying demons and eradicating evil?"
Lu Yuan, who had not spoken until now, finally slowly walked down from the flying boat.
