Chapter 309: Space Teleportation Array

The patrol guards retreated like a tide.

Yi Yi Zhou Xue didn't even dare to take action against Li Youyi himself, so how could he dare to attack the Southern Clear Palace?

In the end, Wang Shu's death buried a thorn in his heart, and he would never be able to work for Chu Tianshu again.

The world had lost a senior brother who valued affection and righteousness, and gained a heretical expert who was hypocritical, self-preserving, and selfish.

What the superiors do, the inferiors follow; the inheritance is generation after generation.

Outside the Southern Clear Palace, it was empty, with only a few scattered Rice Sect disciples peeking from afar, wanting to watch the excitement but arriving a step late.

Hearing about what happened earlier.

These young disciples looked at the Southern Clear Palace with even more awe.

In the heretical sect, only the strong are respected and feared.

Slashing the Fourth Divine Son and being able to escape from many experts like the Divine Son Head Seat, patrol guards, and the Fifth Divine Son was simply like a fantasy, putting a mysterious and powerful cloak on the Southern Venerable's Great Disciple.

Li Youyi, exhausted in body and mind, returned to the main hall of the Southern Clear Palace, let out a long sigh, threw the Yellow Dragon Sword on the ground, and sat down against the wall, the pain and weakness of his entire body rushing in crazily.

Losing the pressure of life and death and the tension, his vision went dark, and he just wanted to fall asleep.

Yang Qingxi was injured even more severely than him, her green clothes stained into blood clothes, her veil long gone, her body covered in wounds. Her spirit and energy seemed to be exhausted as well; she sat directly beside Li Youyi, closing her eyes and breathing deeply against the wall.

After a while, the two laughed softly at the same time.

No matter how tragic, dangerous, and tortuous the process was, at least they had survived once again and won a complete victory.

The people who needed to be saved were saved!

The people who needed to be killed were killed!

Yang Qingxi opened her eyes, turned her face, and looked straight at Li Youyi beside her.

Li Youyi noticed her gaze, bit his tongue to keep from falling asleep, and said vigilantly: "Yang Eldest Miss doesn't want to take this opportunity to eliminate me and then announce to the outside world that I died of severe injuries?"

Yang Qingxi still stared at him, sighing: "Two years ago, in my eyes, you were just a hairy kid from a poor countryside who had reached the Gushing Spring Realm, neither having the extraordinary appearance of a Pure Immortal Body nor a strong and powerful family background."

"At that time, I was already the leader of the younger generation of the Sui Sect. Compared to me, you were like a mole cricket in the mud compared to a phoenix bird spreading its wings in the sky."

"In just two short years, everything has changed; you and I can actually sit side by side against this wall. No matter how arrogant I am in my heart, I cannot look down on you now."

Li Youyi recalled the various events since first arriving in this world and asked: "Honestly, the few times we met in Lizhou, I really couldn't tell when I was seeing you and when I was seeing Yang Qingchan?"

"Why is it necessary to distinguish so clearly? Aren't the grudges between us already cleared?" Yang Qingxi said.

This battle against Wang Shu made Li Youyi change his view of Yang Qingxi.

From beginning to end, her attitude was very firm, not wavering because Wang Shu broke through and fell into a disadvantageous and dangerous situation.

If it were someone else, they probably would have flown away when disaster struck.

Li Youyi felt a weight on his shoulder; Yang Qingxi's head was leaning on it.

He said: "What are you doing?"

"Don't move, let me lean for a while."

After a while, Yang Qingxi closed her eyes and said again: "Actually, we two are more suitable; why not just let things be? Your ancestral field is already ruined, and Zuoqiu Hongting will inevitably have a greatly increased vision after returning from the Due Temple. With her talent and endowment as a young Son of Heaven, how could she still look up to you?"

"You are sowing discord; be careful that when my fiancée returns and hears the rumors between you and me, she will beat you up first."

Li Youyi knew very well that Yang Qingxi was not only a ruthless person but also calculating and extraordinary in mind, so he couldn't judge how much of what she said just now was true.

Thus, he said again: "Why exactly did Yang Eldest Miss want to kill Wang Shu?"

Yang Qingxi's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.

Clearly, this question from Li Youyi caught her off guard.

"Yang Eldest Miss has only been at the main altar for one year, and you have been in seclusion all year round; why could you know the secret of the secret treasury of the underground immortal mansion that Wang Shu had opened? Such a secret, Wang Shu shouldn't have let outsiders know."

"There are seven major families in the Sui Sect; the Yang family ranks first, the Sheng family ranks second, followed by the Wang family, the Xue family, and five other families."

"The Sheng family's ancestor is a Saint Spirit Intent Master and the head of the seven great Elders of the Rice Sect in the Southern Region."

"Your Yang family has two Longevity Realm cultivators, respectively the number one powerhouse in Lizhou, which is your Yang family's ancestor Yang Shenjing, and your grandfather Yang Yin."

"The ancestors of the seven major families of the Sui Sect were originally family retainers and servants of the Jiuli tribe. After a thousand years of development, they grew rapidly and surpassed the main families of the thousands of ancient tribes. How was this done?"

"This time of development and growth seems to coincide exactly with the Divine Sect."

"If I am not mistaken, the seven major families of the Sui Sect have long been subdued by the Divine Sect. The Divine Sect wants to use the Sui Sect's transportation advantage on the water routes and the banner of the Jiuli tribe, a declining ancient tribe of thousands, to insert its forces into all parts of the world without anyone noticing."

"At the same time, it can also transport the rice people planted in various prefectures under the name of human trafficking, without anyone knowing."

"The Sui Sect is clearly a sect, and Yang Shenjing's cultivation suppresses everyone, yet there is still the saying of seven major families within the sect. Most of the family heads are only in the Dao Seed Realm; what do they rely on?"

"The seven major families all have backers, right?"

"The backer of the Wang family is that Vice Palace Master of the Heavenly Principle Palace."

"Your dealing with Wang Shu is essentially one link in the Yang family wanting to clean up the Wang family and completely control the Sui Sect. After all, if Wang Shu grows up, he will definitely go to the Sui Sect to take charge of the Wang family and check and balance your Yang family."

"With checks and balances, your Yang family cannot do whatever they want, and it is difficult to collect wealth and resources for yourselves."

"The Yang family is not afraid of a big shot like the Vice Palace Master of the Heavenly Principle Palace at all, which shows that Yang Shenjing also holds a high position—at least he should be a Vice Palace Master of the Heavenly Palace, or perhaps even the Palace Master."

"Yang Eldest Miss, in your eyes, am I just a greenhorn that can be used?"

Yang Qingxi was still pillowing on Li Youyi's shoulder, her bright eyes wondering what she was thinking, and said: "I already told you, I only found out a year ago that I was a rice person. You should go ask your master, the Southern Venerable, or that Spirit Valley Palace Master who thinks highly of you about these speculations."

Yang Qingchan walked in and looked at the two of them: "The people from the Yang family are here; go see them yourself!"

Yang Qingxi struggled to support her delicate body and walked out.

Li Youyi naturally had already taken back the Ghost Banner and followed curiously to the door, looking from afar.

The people who came from the Yang family were two white-haired old men, followed by Ye Nanfeng, Ye Beifeng, Zuo Sheng, Yang Yun, and the Dao Seed Realm martial cultivators and core disciples who had previously followed Wang Shu.

A vast group of people.

There was no doubt that the people of the Yang family had taken this opportunity to bring Wang Shu's team under their banner.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Li Youyi shouted: "Yang Qingxi, we haven't split the loot yet!"

Yang Qingxi gave a word of advice to the two old men and returned to the Southern Clear Palace, took out Wang Shu's boundary bag, and started splitting the loot with Li Youyi three-seven.

Li Youyi's main purpose this time was to save people, and he was seriously injured, so he didn't haggle too much over the stolen goods.

All of Wang Shu's wealth, including the six Bodhi seeds, added up to a value close to two million Spring Coins.

Li Youyi only wanted one thousand-year refined medicine and a large amount of Spring Coins and blood crystals.

Li Youyi said: "Two million Spring Coins is indeed wealth that only a powerhouse above the Seventh Layer of the Dao Seed Realm can take out. But except for the six Bodhi seeds, the rest of the items don't look like they came from a secret treasury."

"Don't worry, I will go find clues to the secret treasury! After finding it, we will go take it together; I won't swallow it alone," Yang Qingxi smiled.

It would be strange if Li Youyi believed her: "Then the five million Spring Coins you owe me, shouldn't you pay them back?"

Yang Qingxi retreated rapidly, escaping the Southern Clear Palace: "We are both injured so severely, let's not fight again! When we find that secret treasury, the wealth inside might be more than five million Spring Coins."

Li Youyi's body was weak, and he said: "When my injuries heal, I will naturally have a reckoning. It's not so easy to default on the money you owe me."

Yang Qingxi didn't take Li Youyi's threat to heart, thinking that the worst case was just getting beaten up, or being planted with the Shi Liuyu Talisman.

Facing Li Youyi, neither of these two points seemed scary.

She had actually secretly thought, if another man beat her up, or planted the Shi Liuyu Talisman on her, what would the result be?

She felt that she would definitely try every means to tear him into pieces and grind his bones to ashes.

Why had Li Youyi done both of these things, yet she felt no hatred in her heart?

"You should consider my previous proposal again. If my cultivation improves rapidly, and you are still standing still, my vision might become higher, and you won't have a chance!" Yang Qingxi said.

Li Youyi shook his head gently and returned to the main hall of the Southern Clear Palace.

"Yang Qingxi's words are very realistic, but they are also facts. A woman like Zuoqiu Hongting, at the same realm, even I dare not say I can win against her. With the help of dragon seeds and longevity pills, she will soon become a Longevity Realm giant; by then, how will you handle yourself?"

Tang Wanzhou sat above the main hall, her hair in a ponytail, having recovered to the state of a heroic powerhouse.

Li Youyi had a headache: "Young Lord, why did you run out? Didn't we agree not to step out of that array? How many pairs of eyes are watching the Southern Clear Palace now?"

"I discovered some things; do you want to go see?" Tang Wanzhou asked.

Li Youyi and Tang Wanzhou entered the array light gauze and arrived at the ruins of the Buddhist temple.

The entire array area was several dozen mu wide, the blood mist thick, and not a blade of grass grew.

A blood pool more than two meters long and wide sat in a corner of the ruins, the blood inside not dried up, nor congealed.

Tang Wanzhou bypassed the blood pool and took Li Youyi into the Buddhist temple, which only had two remaining walls.

On the ground, there were many fine grooves and patterns, inside which was a red, viscous liquid.

Li Youyi squatted down, touched it with his finger, his fingertip becoming bright red, with a bloody smell: "What powerful blood; how many years has it been, and it hasn't dried up."

This made him think of the blood of the Golden Crow on the bronze ship.

"It is the corpse blood of an ancient immortal giant beast; the energy is naturally not weak," Tang Wanzhou said.

In the history of Yingzhou, there was once a prosperous and brilliant era where countless ancient immortal giant beasts coexisted, ruling this boundless and vast territory together with the ancient immortal giants.

It was only later that the Nether Realm shrouded the entire Yingzhou, and the ancient immortals went far away, gradually becoming extinct.

But in some Realms of Fallen Immortals, there is a chance to find the skeletons of ancient immortal giant beasts from the ancient period. Such skeletons are naturally supreme treasures; even a small amount of corpse blood can help human deformity species transform and gain powerful strength.

Of course, the corpse blood no longer had the power of an immortal and could not be compared to true immortal blood.

The Buddhist temple had been cleaned by Tang Wanzhou, revealing the full picture of these grooves and patterns.

Li Youyi quickly saw the clues: "This is... an array?"

"It is a space teleportation array!"

Tang Wanzhou had been studying the way of space for more than ten years, and in this array, she discovered abnormal spatial fluctuations.

Space teleportation arrays are extremely rare, harder to set up than any array, and even Saint Spirit Intent Masters cannot study them clearly.

With Tang Wanzhou's experience, it was also her first time seeing one.

Li Youyi said: "What is the purpose of the Young Lord bringing me here?"

"You are a Spirit Intent Master."

Tang Wanzhou walked toward the center of the array.

Li Youyi said: "I am a Spirit Intent Master, but my understanding of arrays is probably not as good as yours, Young Lord."

"Your intent power can urge the array," Tang Wanzhou said.

Li Youyi said: "We don't even know where this array leads. It has too much uncertainty and danger."

Tang Wanzhou said: "This teleportation array is built in the Buddhist temple; it is very likely an important transit hub during the ancient Pogaluo Sect period. It cannot be connecting to the outside, because the barrier of the underground immortal mansion is also hard for spatial power to penetrate."

"It is highly likely that it is an array for mutual teleportation between two places inside the underground immortal mansion. Look at this broken jade tablet!"

In the center of the array, there was a jade stone tablet with only half remaining, engraved with two strange characters.

"These are characters from the ancient Pogaluo Sect period, named 'Holy Heart'."

She said: "I speculate that this is a teleportation array leading to the Holy Heart layer."

"The Young Lord doesn't want to start the array and head to the Holy Heart layer, right?" Li Youyi felt she must be crazy, reminding her: "The two Rice Ancestors are in the Holy Heart layer."

Tang Wanzhou said: "Are you so sure that the Rice Ancestors are still in the Holy Heart layer? Instead of being drawn to the ground by the transcendence of the Zuoqiu Sect and the Snow Sword Tang Court?"
