Chapter 169: Xu Xing Sees Gu Again
Chifeng No. 47 Stellar System. After Bie Xuening sent Chi Jiuyu and the others away, she glanced at Huang Qi.
When she had captured him just now, she had expected him to use that trace of 'Xuan's' essence, but he didn't.
“Sword Revered, you can't kill me!” Huang Qi stared at her and said.
Bie Xuening did not reply.
Huang Qi's words were not false.
Her main body resided in the Sword Sect and could not move easily.
With the trace of power stored in her jade talisman, she indeed could not kill this Cang Clan member with a trace of 'Xuan's' essence before her eyes.
'Xuan' was the strongest ancestor of the Cang Clan, the origin of all transcendence in the Tai Xuan Realm.
Even her Senior Brother before his seclusion did not dare to say he could surely defeat 'Xuan'.
Moreover...
The Cang Clan is not extinguished, and Xuan is not dead.
“This sudden turn of events was indeed beyond my expectation.”
Her original intention was just to let Zhang Yunlu undergo a trial.
If she succeeded, the trace of power in the jade talisman would send her and her Rebellious Disciple back to the Central Continent.
If she failed and unfortunately fell into danger, she would also rescue her, but the matter of taking her as a disciple would be dropped.
However, she ran into 'Xuan's' scheme.
Was it her sword dao's guidance that caused Zhang Yunlu to fall into disaster, or was Xuan's scheme too grand, leading to the descent of calamity?
Or was it both?
All these thoughts occurred in an instant.
“Regardless of Xuan's scheme, it's enough for you to use his essence at this moment,” Bie Xuening said calmly.
Although the power stored in the jade talisman wasn't much, it could still unleash one sword strike.
If he didn't use 'Xuan's' essence, this Dongzhen Realm Cang Clan member would absolutely not be able to block it.
Huang Qi's expression changed, and his soul also seemed to sense extreme danger, trembling and shivering involuntarily.
Vast purple intent surged and swam in his eyes, but he suppressed it with all his might!
However, overwhelming sword light did not appear in the next moment.
Bie Xuening only looked up at the Starry Sky.
Starry Sky Frontline Battlefield.
A being of profound and difficult-to-understand nature, seemingly explaining all the mysterious principles of the world, stepped on rolling purple energy and arrived under the illumination of immeasurable divine light.
The palatial halls, grand halls, and fortresses on the frontline battlefield, comparable in size to stellar systems, were like small stones on the coast under this purple energy, as if they could be swallowed at any moment.
“I wish to test the Sword Revered's sword, and hope you will not be stingy with your guidance.”
The faint voice crossed the star clusters and was heard with extreme clarity in the Chiyu Star System and the Chifeng No. 47 Stellar System.
Flames sputtered on the surface of the star.
Xuan!
......
Righteous Path Alliance.
Highest Council Submarine City, inside Yuan's grand hall.
Yuan still maintained the appearance of a phantom soul body at this time, while Azure Jade quietly floated in mid-air.
Perhaps this state had some inexplicable blessing, or perhaps the arrival of Xu Xing and Yuan Jun made Ming Yu restrain herself a bit...
In any case, Yuan had successfully appeased his girlfriend.
This made Xu Xing, who was preparing to watch the show, feel a bit bored.
“The matter here should be resolved soon. Make arrangements so that when we go to Lingyin Workshop, the Righteous Path Alliance doesn't fall into chaos because of your departure again.”
After leaving this sentence, Xu Xing left to attend to important matters, and Yuan Jun also disappeared with him.
Yuan: “……”
You can just leave, why did you have to say that extra sentence!
Sure enough, after the two left, he found Ming Yu looking at him.
“You're going to Lingyin Workshop?”
“Sword Ancestor is going to meet Ling Zu Senior and Wanzhu to understand some things. I'm just accompanying him,” Yuan said in a calm tone.
Stay steady, don't panic!
“Understand what? Is it related to the last time you went to Lingyin Workshop before you left?”
“……” After a pause, Yuan shook his head slightly, “I don't know either. The trace of Divine Soul I left behind doesn't have detailed memories of that.”
This was not a lie.
He only knew that he had left something in Clear Ruins, and Wanzhu knew the specific location. Other than that, there was nothing else!
When Ming Yu heard this, as he expected, she didn't ask any further.
I'm really f*cking smart!
Just as Yuan was secretly rejoicing at his cleverness, Ming Yu's next sentence made his soul body tremble.
“I'll go with you then.”
......
......
Council Speaker's Tower, the secret chamber below.
Xu Xing's figure quietly appeared.
He had also received Yuan's authorization, so he wasn't trespassing without reason.
He saw that on the stone platform, besides Gu Mo's piece which had dimmed, the other few golden crystal bodies emitted faint light.
Moreover, between four of these golden crystal bodies, there was an extremely subtle connection.
It was precisely the aura that had inadvertently leaked out before, closer to 'Immortal' than Gu Mo, or perhaps... 'Ancestor'.
And its main body was...
Xu Xing looked at one of the golden crystal bodies, took a step, and walked directly into it.
What met his eyes was strange purple mist, a slippery and soft feeling under his feet, and beside him was a 'rustling' sound like insects wriggling.
“This really isn't cultivating immortals at all,” Xu Xing complained.
Then he walked directly inside.
He didn't maintain a constant speed like Gu Mo and the Contemporary Chairman of the Highest Council before, so twisted black shadows occasionally wanted to pounce from the surrounding purple mist, but they only approached a little before retreating blankly.
Emm...
When giving opportunities to the younger generation in the future, the trial space created can refer to this environment.
Thinking and walking like this, Xu Xing quickly arrived before the huge purple flesh mountain, lifted the flesh blanket, and walked directly inside.
What came into view was a scene of an immortal's blessed land.
However, perhaps because the intercepted vitality had decreased, this place was much smaller than when Gu Mo came before, and it was not as vibrant and filled with immortal energy as it was then.
Some withered yellow leaves fell on the ground paved with spirit jade, or drifted far away along the flow of the spirit spring water.
Xu Xing walked over the winding bridge and arrived before the elegant waterside pavilion in the very center.
The slender figure seated within did not notice Xu Xing's arrival and still kept her eyes closed.
Indeed...
Looking at her exquisite and perfect skin, Xu Xing couldn't help but sigh.
“Fellow Daoist Mengxuan, long time no see.”
Hearing the sound, Meng Xuan's eyelids trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
When she saw who the person was, a trace of intense hatred appeared in her bright eyes.
But it disappeared without a trace in the next instant.
“Sword Ancestor.”
Her tone was indifferent, without any fluctuation, as if the person before her was just a stranger.
“……” After a few seconds of silence, “Gu, why not come out and meet?”
As Xu Xing spoke these words, a seven-colored divine radiance lit up in the void.
Gu appeared accordingly.
“Using your Human Clan's Dongzhen Realm knocking on the Immortal Gate as a guide to welcome 'Heaven' back, how is this method?”
“Your previous scheme for the essence of confusion was also for this matter, wasn't it?”
“Correct.”
The mind of the Dongzhen Realm is perfectly integrated. Even He could only seize the moment of failure when knocking on the Immortal Gate to exploit the opening and plant a trace of doubt.
Then, using the past shadow of confusion, He would continuously amplify this trace of doubt, eventually transforming it into hatred.
If He could obtain another trace of confusion's essence and use it with the past shadow of confusion, He could even completely reverse their mindset.
Unfortunately, Sword Ancestor interfered, so the plan did not succeed.
