135: Chapter 135 With his master backing him up, Elder Yun is very assertive!
Another round of intense, earth-shattering battle ensued.
It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that the two finally left the Main Hall and headed towards the Forbidden Ground behind the Hehuan Sect.
However, even though she was a Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator, her gait still seemed a bit strange as she walked.
Cao Kun found it amusing and simply reached out to pull this beautiful Sect Master into his arms.
"What are you doing... Let go! What will people think if they see us like this!"
Qin Canglan tried to push him away in embarrassment and anger, but her hands were weak and couldn't muster even a shred of spiritual power.
The guarding Disciples along the way were very tactful; they kept their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts, all lowering their heads and pretending to be blind.
Soon, the two arrived at a natural underground cavern.
This was where the Spiritual Vein of the Hehuan Sect converged, and it was also the eye of the Sect-protecting formation.
Qin Canglan stopped, calmed her breathing, and looked at Cao Kun: "This is it. How do you plan to install your imperial palace of ultimate bliss?"
"Step back a bit," Cao Kun said, turning his head to instruct her.
He then took out the imperial palace of ultimate bliss and tossed it casually.
The miniature palace left his hand and expanded rapidly in the wind.
With a resounding "Boom,"
the entire mountain range where the Hehuan Sect was located shook violently.
The imperial palace of ultimate bliss instantly transformed into a magnificent palace a hundred zhang tall, its phantom image overlapping and intertwining with the surrounding rocks and cliff walls.
Countless complex and profound ancient formation patterns spread out from the base of the palace, forcibly digging deep into the Spiritual Vein.
It directly merged with the Hehuan Sect's Spiritual Vein.
Immediately after.
A beam of dark golden light shot up from the top of the imperial palace of ultimate bliss, piercing through the top of the cavern and straight into the clouds.
The beam of light exploded high in the sky, turning into a semi-transparent dark golden barrier.
It encompassed the entire Hehuan Sect mountain gate, along with dozens of surrounding peaks.
On the surface of the barrier, phantom images of Dragons and Phoenixes roamed, invulnerable to all Laws.
At the same time, the Laws of Heaven and Earth of the entire Sect were forcibly rewritten at this moment.
The ordinary Spiritual Qi originally drifting in the air gradually transformed into grayish-white Yin and Yang Qi!
"This is..." Qin Canglan subconsciously circulated her Cultivation Technique.
The next moment.
She felt comfortable all over, and the physical strength consumed by Dual Cultivation was instantly restored by more than half.
Even her cultivation, which had been stagnant for many years, showed signs of loosening.
"This is called Chaos Yin and Yang Qi," Cao Kun said, watching the grayish-white gas spreading continuously. "This stuff is ten times purer than a Top-Grade Spirit Stone."
Outside.
The entire Hehuan Sect was already in an uproar.
Xie Wuwang stood on the square of Yunyu Peak, looking at the dark golden barrier in the sky.
Feeling the rich Yin and Yang Qi around him, he was trembling with excitement.
"A miracle! This is a miracle!"
The Elders and Disciples of the other peaks also realized what was happening.
A Sect-protecting formation of this level, this kind of unheard-of high-grade Spiritual Qi.
The Hehuan Sect was truly about to soar into the sky!
The panic and unease in everyone's hearts were swept away.
What replaced it was blind worship and fanaticism towards Cao Kun.
Meanwhile.
Far away, a thousand miles from the Hehuan Sect, the atmosphere at the Miaoyin Sect was not so joyful.
The head of the Ji Family, Ji Wuli, who had a Half-Step Soul Transformation cultivation, stood in the center of the Main Hall with a Face full of malice.
He was followed by four Nascent Soul Stage Guest Elders with fierce expressions, reeking of Killing Intent.
They blocked the exit of the entire Main Hall tightly.
"Bang!"
Ji Wuli's eyes were bloodshot, and he slapped the wooden table beside him into powder.
"I will ask one last time!"
"My son Ji Nian's Life Tablet has shattered! The last time anyone saw him, he was taking a massive amount of betrothal gifts to the Hehuan Sect!"
"He is missing, and you must give me an explanation today, Miaoyin Sect!"
The Sect Leader of the Miaoyin Sect sat in the seat of honor, her Face pale.
She only had a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivation, and in front of a Half-Step Soul Transformation expert,
she was drenched in sweat from the powerful Spiritual Pressure and found it difficult even to breathe.
"Ji... Sect Leader Ji, please calm down."
The Sect Leader wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, unable to speak clearly.
"This matter... we really have no knowledge of it. Ji Nian... he went to the Hehuan Sect to propose marriage, he never reported it to the Sect."
"Stop spouting nonsense!" Ji Wuli glared with wide eyes.
"Yun Xiyue is his Revered Master! A Disciple goes to propose with such a grand display, and she wouldn't know? Call Yun Xiyue out for me!"
Yun Xiyue had gone to the Taiyi Secret Realm representing the Sect; calculating the time, she should have returned.
But until now, there was no sign of her.
"Sect Leader Ji, Grand Elder Yun went to explore the Secret Realm, and has not yet..."
Just when the Sect Leader didn't know what to do,
a steady sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the Main Hall.
Everyone turned to look.
They saw Yun Xiyue stepping over the threshold unhurriedly, her posture composed, her expression calm.
When the Miaoyin Sect Leader saw Yun Xiyue, it was as if she had seen a savior.
"Grand Elder Yun! You have finally returned!"
"Where exactly did the young Revered Master of the Ji Family go? What is going on here!"
Ji Wuli didn't say another word and pointed directly at Yun Xiyue's nose to interrogate her.
"You swore in your communication Jade Slip before that Ji Nian was in seclusion at an ancient Cultivator's Immortal Cave!"
"But I followed the clues and investigated clearly; he clearly went to the Hehuan Sect half a month ago to propose marriage!"
"How dare you use lies to fool me! Is my son's death something you and the Hehuan Sect colluded on?"
Facing this aggressive interrogation and the Half-Step Soul Transformation Spiritual Pressure,
Yun Xiyue's expression did not change.
If this were in the past,
she would definitely have compromised to preserve the Sect, or even apologized in a low voice.
But now it was different.
In her body flowed the pure Chaos Qi left by Cao Kun.
Her cultivation had even reached Half-Step Soul Transformation.
Most importantly, standing behind her was that man who was arrogant beyond measure.
What was there to fear?
Yun Xiyue stopped and retorted without any courtesy.
"Sect Leader Ji, I don't understand what you are saying."
"Your son was blinded by lust and secretly took people to the Hehuan Sect to propose marriage behind my back. How would I know about that?"
"I was risking my life in the Far North Secret Realm for the sake of the Sect. Do I need to keep him tied to me and watch him every day, like a baby that hasn't been weaned?"
These words were sharp and sarcastic, completely unlike Yun Xiyue's usual cold and taciturn style.
Having hung around with Cao Kun for so long, she hadn't learned much else, but she had learned seven or eight parts of this skill of infuriating people to death.
Ji Wuli was stunned on the spot.
He didn't expect that a mere Elder of the Miaoyin Sect would not only not apologize, but actually dare to talk back to him to his Face.
"Presumptuous!"
Ji Wuli was completely enraged.
The pain of losing his son, combined with being slighted in public, caused him to lose his last bit of reason.
"Stop trying to clear your name here! If you don't tell me who the murderer is today, I will mobilize all the experts of the Ji Family and trample your Miaoyin Sect!"
"I will make all of you be buried with my son!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
Yun Xiyue's eyes turned cold.
Boom!
A Spiritual Pressure no less than Ji Wuli's erupted from her body.
It forcefully pushed back Ji Wuli's Aura!
The Miaoyin Sect Leader was so shocked that she stood up and exclaimed in horror:
"Half... Half-Step Soul Transformation?! Elder Yun, you... you actually broke through?!"
Ji Wuli was also somewhat incredulous.
Yun Xiyue had been stuck at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage for decades; how did she go to the Secret Realm once and directly cross two small Realms to reach Half-Step Soul Transformation?
And the thickness of this spiritual power was simply unimaginable!
No wonder she dared to be so confident!
"You want to see him? Sure."
Yun Xiyue, following Cao Kun's instructions, spoke in a tough tone.
"Since he was last seen at the Hehuan Sect, if you have the ability, go to the Hehuan Sect yourself and demand him from Grand Elder Cao Kun!"
"Why are you running here to throw your weight around?"
"You bully the weak and fear the strong, you trash."
Hearing the name Cao Kun, Ji Wuli's eye twitched.
Although he had been investigating the whereabouts of his son,
the events that happened in the Taiyi Secret Realm had long since spread throughout Qingzhou.
That Cao Kun of the Hehuan Sect not only slaughtered the Elder of the Taiyi Dao Sect, but even forcibly took the Taiyi Saintess as his maid.
Even that Soul Transformation old monster, Chu Qianqiu, didn't dare to directly strike when Face to Face.
Although Ji Wuli was arrogant, he was not stupid.
Although the Ji Family was considered a hegemon in Qingzhou, compared to the Taiyi Dao Sect, they still lacked foundation.
Even that Soul Transformation old monster Chu Qianqiu didn't dare to make a move against Cao Kun on the spot; he, a Half-Step Soul Transformation, would go to the Hehuan Sect to demand a person?
Wasn't that just seeking death?
But the pain of losing his son made him unable to swallow this anger.
What's more, the Ji Family still had a real Soul Transformation Stage Old Ancestor sitting in charge.
"Good! A good Hehuan Sect! A good Cao Kun!"
Ji Wuli knew he couldn't get any advantage today.
Yun Xiyue was already a Half-Step Soul Transformation; if they really fought, he might not necessarily win.
"Don't think that just because you have that Devil Head as a shield, this matter can be brushed over!"
Halfway through leaving, Ji Wuli turned back and threw down a harsh remark.
"If my son really met with an accident at the Hehuan Sect, your Miaoyin Sect will not be able to escape responsibility either!"
Having said that, he stopped talking nonsense and left the Miaoyin Sect directly with several Guest Elders.
He wanted to return to his clan to invite the Old Ancestor to come out and go to the Hehuan Sect to hold them accountable!
