462: The action begins

Below the desolate mountain cliff, a faint Spirit Light appeared as the sunlight shone upon it.

Below the Spirit Light, as Lin Shiyun's hand released the last Formation Flag, the Teleportation Array before them finally dispersed a large ripple of Spirit Light.

Then it returned to normal.

Lin Shiyun wiped his sweat and patted Lin Shiyuan's shoulder. This time, Shiyuan continued to assist him with the Teleportation Array.

Just then, the Immortal Cave next to them also opened.

Lin Shiming had already sketched a Spirit Map in his hand.

The Nine Heavens Hermit and the other three gathered before the Spirit Map.

The Spirit Map was precisely the original map of the Qingxuan Sect, but now it had several Teleportation Array markings added.

"These are the Teleportation Array locations that Senior Yan Yang Sword found. They are all newly built!" Lin Shiming said slowly. These Teleportation Array locations were all obtained from System notifications in recent days.

There were three Teleportation Arrays in total.

Two open and one hidden. True Person Liuhe had indeed put in effort. There was an open one below Fangmu Island, located on Fangmu Mountain.

The remaining two Teleportation Arrays were one open and one hidden at the Qingxuan Sect ruins.

The hidden Teleportation Array was even a thousand zhang underground at the Qingxuan Sect ruins, a depth where ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators could not stay.

Clearly, in True Person Liuhe's eyes, Lin Shiming's desire for the blood demon disc and Treasure Unlocking Art would be higher.

After all, it was a damaged Spirit Treasure. If it were Lin Shiming himself, he would naturally make the same choice.

But he felt Guilt towards Lin Houshou, and he couldn't bear to see Lin Shiyuan heartbroken, or Fangmu Mountain renamed to Fumu Mountain!

Nor could he truly corrupt his Dao Heart.

If possible, he would naturally go and destroy the Chu Family first.

Before that, the Teleportation Array had to be destroyed to prevent the Heavenly Demon Sect's Golden Core Cultivators from arriving.

"Next, I will have several Purple Mansion Great Demons controlled by the Spirit Control Seal take Heavenly Beast Pills to destroy the open Teleportation Array at the Qingxuan Sect ruins. If possible, I would also trouble Elder Jiuxiao to destroy the underground Teleportation Array!"

"Of course!" Elder Jiuxiao nodded. With Yan Yang Sword present, he felt reassured. Since everything had been thoroughly investigated, there was no need to worry.

When they were in Yuhai City, there were no less than ten Golden Core Demon Kings of the Yao Race.

Unless the Heavenly Demon Sect no longer wanted Yuhai City or the Demon Cave, they would have to hold their ground there.

This time, the Yao Race was clearly intent on plundering resources along the way.

And as long as the Cloud Dragon achieves a Breakthrough, the Heavenly Demon Sect will only be able to retreat to a corner, and forget about uniting with the other Human Race Sects to suppress the East Sea Yao Race!

"Next, everyone adjust your status!" Lin Shiming said.

This was mainly directed at Lin Shiyuan. He wanted revenge, and the Chu Family was definitely the target he could deal with at the moment.

Although everything was planned and the Teleportation Array was fully set up, for Lin Shiming, it was still not the most stable time. It would be best to wait for the System notification to refresh.

There were still four days until the Chu Family's Purple Mansion ceremony.

Lin Shiming didn't need to rush.

His biggest concern was that True Person Liuhe might have already teleported over while they were on their way to the Teleportation Array.

Whether he encountered him or the Nine Heavens Hermit encountered him, it was unacceptable to him.

Of course, unless he used the Spirit Control Seal to control a Purple Mansion Great Demon capable of earth escape techniques!

Everyone returned to their Immortal Cave, and Lin Shiming once again inspected the Teleportation Array.

After confirming there were no issues, he also returned to his Immortal Cave to meditate and rest.

In the early morning of the second day, Lin Shiming opened his eyes with joy. The System notification had not sounded, and before him, the Mystic Profound Origin Pearl had once again stored a Great Evolution Sword Style!

Lin Shiming walked out contentedly, and Lin Shiyuan was already waiting in the hall.

The Nine Heavens Hermit and Lin Shiyun, however, emerged almost simultaneously with Lin Shiming.

"Shiming, everything is ready!"

"I'll also help you look for the Treasure Unlocking Art when the time comes!" The Nine Heavens Hermit couldn't help but say.

Lin Shiming nodded at this. True Person Liuhe and Real Person Tianmo couldn't come.

He was extremely relieved. If he could also obtain the Treasure Unlocking Art, that would naturally be for the best!

Lin Shiming took out the Eternal Night Umbrella and handed it to the Nine Heavens Hermit.

At the same time, he took out two Spirit Jades.

These two Spirit Jades were similar to Ten Thousand Li Jade, one for Lin Shiyun and one for the Nine Heavens Hermit.

This time, Lin Shiyun was also going to the Qingxuan Sect ruins. After all, the Nine Heavens Hermit was an outsider. Lin Shiming's action was also to make the Nine Heavens Hermit understand that the Lin Family was not treating him as a disposable pawn.

"These Spirit Jades are one-time Ten Thousand Li Teleportation Jades. If anything happens, I will sketch within this jade, and you will directly flee for your lives!"

The Nine Heavens Hermit and Lin Shiyun nodded repeatedly.

After dealing with that, Lin Shiming also gave the latter several Realm Breaking Talismans just in case!

Once everything was prepared, Lin Shiming released three Sea Cloud Bird Great Demons. These three Sea Cloud Bird Great Demons were caught by him in the South Sea and controlled by the Spirit Control Seal.

After the three Spirit Beasts emerged, Lin Shiming applied another layer of Spirit Control Seal to ensure the smooth progress of this journey.

At the same time, he took out three Blood Burst Pills. These three Blood Burst Pills were given to the Nine Heavens Hermit, instructing them to give them to the three Purple Mansion Great Demons when they were about to reach the ruins.

At that time, even if True Person Liuhe had left a hidden hand, the Teleportation Array could still be destroyed steadily.

Seeing Lin Shiming's numerous methods, the Nine Heavens Hermit's confidence greatly increased.

But then Lin Shiming, as if performing a magic trick, took out another Medicinal Pill.

This Medicinal Pill was the size of a Dragon's eye. As it fell into the Nine Heavens Hermit's eyes, he only felt a surge of soaring Dragon Qi.

"This is?" The Nine Heavens Hermit hesitated.

"Heavenly Beast Pill. It can temporarily transform one into a half-Dragon-like existence, increasing one's strength by half a Realm!" Lin Shiming explained.

The Nine Heavens Hermit also hesitated. He looked at Lin Shiming.

"What about you, Shiming?"

Unconsciously, his address became more intimate.

"I still have Senior Yan Yang Sword. I hope Elder Jiuxiao doesn't blame Shiming for preparing too few methods!" Lin Shiming said with a smile.

The Nine Heavens Hermit also nodded, and the two groups separated from the Cliff Wall.

Lin Shiming looked at the endless abyss and thought of Lin Family's former Third Elder, Lin Yushui.

That time, it was to protect the Lin Family's Foundation Establishment Pill, and this time, it was to avenge the Lin Family.

That time, he looked at the abyss, filled with regret and helplessness.

This time, he was already a Purple Mansion Daoist, and the end of the abyss was even within his sight.

"This time, it will definitely succeed!"

Lin Shiming's eyes narrowed, and he exhaled a breath of turbid Qi.

He took Lin Shiyuan and headed towards Fangmu Mountain!

...East Sea, Yuhai City.

The Golden Core battle was still ongoing, and half of Yuhai City had been destroyed.

The Heavenly Devil Sky-Sealing Grand Formation had already been re-established for the third time.

True Person Liuhe and Real Person Tianmo looked at the Gold Emperor before them, feeling extremely troublesome.

True Person Liuhe's six Clones were all incomparably agitated.

He looked at Blood Rain True Person beside him:

"Did Martial Uncle Demon Soul really give that answer?"

"Yes!" Blood Rain True Person replied truthfully:

"Senior Brother Liuhe, Martial Uncle said that he didn't hesitate to expend thirty years of his lifespan, and what he saw was a majestic figure. That person might be a Reincarnation of a mighty being! Or perhaps possesses the Treasures of a mighty being!"

"Martial Uncle said it couldn't be calculated. Not calculating is fine, but calculating would definitely be wrong. The other party seems to be able to anticipate it!" After Blood Rain True Person finished speaking, he also sighed.

He knew how much True Person Liuhe had planned, yet at this point, he couldn't even make a prediction.

The effort expended in this, as well as the troubles left behind.

Moreover, the three times he calculated had already consumed fifty years of Martial Uncle Demon Soul's lifespan.

This meant that True Person Liuhe was deeply favored by Martial Uncle Demon Soul!

Otherwise, if it were any other Immortal Master, losing the blood demon disc and not being punished by Martial Uncle Demon Soul would be a fortunate thing!

True Person Liuhe couldn't help but clench his fists.

But he didn't doubt the truth of the matter, because Lin Shiming had indeed acted as if he had foresight.

He definitely possessed a Magic Treasure like the Seven Stars Plate.

As for a Reincarnation, he didn't believe it.

Nor did he dare to believe it.

That would be a nightmare for their Heavenly Demon Sect.

But he knew that Lin Shiming had a strange treasure on him.

"I hope..." True Person Liuhe closed his eyes slightly!

His Teleportation Array, his Blood Pool!

Outside, there were rumbling sounds again.

Clearly, the Yao Race had attacked again.

"Gold Emperor, if you want to fight, I'll fight you properly today!" True Person Liuhe was furious. He stepped out and charged towards the outside!

After him, four Clones moved out simultaneously.

The most cunning Asura Dao Clone remained in place, still staring blankly in the direction of Zhao Country... Zhao Country, Yunzhou.

The closer he got to Fangmu Mountain, the more agitated Lin Shiming's mood became.

Scenes from the past flashed before his eyes: Peach Blossom Town, Peach Blossom Valley, Artifact Refining Hall, Treasure Pavilion... As these scenes appeared one after another, he suddenly realized that his heart, which had long been calm, was also faintly burning.

He always said he was avenging Lin Shiyuan.

But in fact, for him, how could he tolerate that grievance?

Lin Houshou had also stayed behind at Fangmu Mountain to prevent him from being exposed, and was ultimately harmed by a few arrogant members of the Chu Family.

His previous calmness was merely because he was better at self-control.

He tilted his head and looked at Lin Shiyuan.

Lin Shiyuan also tilted his head and looked back.

"Seventh Brother..."

Lin Shiyuan didn't say much. Perhaps at this moment, for him, who was not good with words, he truly couldn't say anything.

But the gratitude in his eyes, and his identification with the Family, were clearly evident!

The closer the two got to Fangmu Mountain, the more indescribable their feelings became.

Soon, Lin Shiming was only twenty li away from Fangmu Mountain.

This distance, for a Purple Mansion Cultivator, could be covered in an instant.

He had already glimpsed the clouds and mist on Fangmu Mountain from afar. Peach trees still stood on Fangmu Mountain, but in late autumn, the peach trees had already begun to wither.

The Spirit Lake and Green Lotus Pond were still there, and the pavilion was also still there, but what made Lin Shiming furious was that the words "Fumu Pavilion" were carved on it!

This made Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyuan incredibly enraged.

This once sacred place of the Lin Family had actually been humiliated!

Lin Shiming suppressed his anger and shifted his gaze to the peak next to Fangmu Mountain.

He had once practiced Spells on that peak.

And True Person Liuhe's Teleportation Array was precisely located deep underground in that mountain, made extremely concealed!

Just then, Lin Shiming's System notification sounded again:

"Attention, the Heavenly Blood Demon Snake in the Blood Pool!"

Lin Shiming immediately tensed up.

Indeed, True Person Liuhe had still left a method behind.

Lin Shiming took out the Yan Yang Sword.

"That Blood Pool is strange!" As soon as the Yan Yang Sword appeared, it also discovered the anomaly of the Blood Pool.

Lin Shiming also relayed the System notification about the Heavenly Blood Demon Snake to the Yan Yang Sword.

The Yan Yang Sword immediately glowed with Sword Light all over its body, and countless Spirit Runes appeared densely packed.

Lin Shiming felt somewhat dizzy just looking at it; there were at least a thousand Spirit Runes on it!

"Shiyuan, wait here!" Lin Shiming instructed Lin Shiyuan to stay put, and then he and the Yan Yang Sword cautiously burrowed underground together.

Soon, an underground hall appeared. In the hall, there was also a white bone palace.

At the entrance of the palace, countless white bones were piled up into a mountain of bones, dense and terrifying.

And in the Blood Pool, bubbles continuously emerged, and vague snake shadows could be seen moving within.

The Yan Yang Sword instantly released its most terrifying blood-red glow.

It slashed towards the Blood Pool!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Waves of blood surged up. The next moment, nine huge blood snakes emerged from the Blood Pool. They had green eyes, and their snake mouths were like abysses.

With a single spray, countless crimson blood shot towards the Yan Yang Sword.

In an instant, it was no weaker than the terrifying Sword Might of the Yan Yang Sword.

The crimson blood and Sword Light were evenly matched. The most important thing was that this strange crimson blood seemed to be alive, continuously surging towards the Yan Yang Sword and even capable of devouring Sword Qi.

While the Yan Yang Sword and the blood snakes were battling, Lin Shiming also unleashed two sword strikes, but they were interrupted by the Blood Pool that the blood snakes casually sprayed, making his attacks completely ineffective.

Lin Shiming couldn't even destroy the Formation...

At this moment, at the Qingxuan Sect ruins, with a rumbling sound, three Sea Cloud Birds, after consuming Blood Burst Pills, managed to trap and kill a Purple Mansion Late Stage Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivator, and the Teleportation Array was also destroyed.

In the deep underground hall of the Qingxuan Sect, the Nine Heavens Hermit also transformed into a half-Dragon and was fighting a Purple Mansion Late Stage Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivator.

Lin Shiyun, meanwhile, destroyed the Teleportation Array.

Both Teleportation Arrays were destroyed at the same time.

And at this moment, the Nine Heavens Hermit was simply unstoppable. This Heavenly Beast Pill had reached the High Grade of the Fourth Tier, and the Nine Heavens Hermit was already skilled in combat with many treasures!

...Yuhai City, the only remaining Asura Dao Clone's expression suddenly changed.

Under his perception, the Blood Pool moved, and the Teleporter of the Qingxuan Sect also moved.

He desperately rushed towards the Teleportation Array, calling upon Real Person Tianmo, who had just retreated from the battlefield to heal.

However, the Teleportation Array did not light up.

Clearly, Fangmu Island's Teleportation Array had also gone dark, destroyed by Lin Shiming... Deep underground in Fangmu Mountain, Lin Shiming had transformed into an Immortal Wood. Countless Immortal Woods rooted themselves from the Void Realm and blasted towards the Teleportation Array.

Even if the blood shadows could stop him, Lin Shiming's Immortal Wood rooted itself from the Void Realm, making it impossible to defend against.

The blood snakes immediately became furious.

"Their weakness is the Blood Pool itself!" The Yan Yang Sword suddenly spoke at this moment.

Lin Shiming quickly understood.

The blood snakes immediately became furious.

However, the Yan Yang Sword had already transformed into a giant sword, its Sword Intent soaring, and flames reaching the sky. In an instant, it broke through the blood snakes' blood cloud.

Lin Shiming also took the opportunity to once again cast the Shadow of Immortal Wood, striking the Blood Pool itself.

Immediately, countless Spirit Runes began to disintegrate and shatter, and the giant blood snakes could no longer sustain themselves!

They collapsed with a crash!
