Chapter 478

This is definitely not an ordinary seal; they speculated that it might conceal even more miraculous and terrifying power.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, like a blade stabbing toward them.

Lu Yuan promptly activated the Five Elements Escape Technique, silently dodging the wind blades.

He saw King Qi behind him waving the Demon-Breaking Golden Wheel in his hand, tearing the air to block the wind blades.

"Be careful!" Lu Yuan shouted.

Su Liyan brandished the Ice Crystal Long Whip, forming an ice wall before her that blocked the invading wind blades outside.

Gu Qingwan formed seals with both hands, and a blazing phoenix flame erupted from her, transforming into a lively fire shield that protected them.

At that moment, they discovered the hall shrouded in darkness, like a black hole in an abyss, as if it would devour everything.

In the darkness, eerie red light flickered, exuding a strong evil aura.

King Qi retracted the golden wheel, his face solemn as he said: "This place hides an unknown secret; we must act cautiously."

Lu Yuan nodded: "This seal seems to have been broken; I can feel the destructive energy contained within the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal."

"We must be wary that some people inside the North Pole Ghost City might exploit this power."

"Lu Yuan is right," Gu Qingwan calmly added: "The North Pole Ghost City has always been the stronghold of the evil cults Red Lotus Sect and Blood Moon Sect; their ambition for power is not to be underestimated."

Su Liyan gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly, her eyes filled with determination: "We cannot let the cultists succeed, or else this ice plain will become their domain."

Lu Yuan's team nodded in unison, and the Fobao on their bodies began to emit light.

They fully understood the pressure and danger of this journey, but to safeguard the peace and justice of Xian Jie, they were willing to give their all. Su Liyan calmly analyzed the situation before them, using her ice-element immortal arts to observe the energy fluctuations around them, striving to provide the team with accurate information.

In the Mysterious Yellow Ancient City, she could sense an unusually strong dark power, as if an evil aura permeated the entire city.

Su Linglong stared intently at Shuangxue Yinshi, hoping to obtain some useful clues from him.

She had heard that this hermit possessed rich historical knowledge and secrets, and she hoped to learn more about the North Pole Ghost City and the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal from him.

"Can you tell us more about the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal?" Su Linglong asked curiously.

Shuangxue Yinshi fell silent for a moment, then finally said: "The Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal is an extremely ancient and powerful immortal art; it is said that it can seal any being possessing destructive power."

"But it has been forgotten by people for a long time; in this era, few understand its true power."

"Then why would it appear in the North Pole Ghost City?" Su Liyan asked nervously.

Shuangxue Yinshi's face grew grave: "The Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect have been seeking the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal, for it is the key to their acquiring power."

"They hope to obtain its power, to control the North Pole Ghost City, and even the entirety of Xian Jie."

Lu Yuan frowned in thought: "If the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect mastered the power of the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"We must stop them."

Gu Qingwan took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "We must not only face the threat of the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect, but also overcome the pressure brought by internal strife."

"Only by uniting as one can we overcome the dual pressure."

Upon hearing this, Su Liyan formed a plan; she gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly and decided to try using her ice-element immortal arts to repel the enemies attempting to hinder their advance.

Suddenly, several Red Lotus Sect disciples darted out from beside her.

She raised the Ice Crystal Long Whip, swinging it swiftly like an ice snake, emitting a sharp ice-blade sound.

The cold air condensed, and her attack deflected the Red Lotus Sect disciples' offensive.

"Sister, you're amazing!" Su Linglong exclaimed in awe.

She had long known that Su Liyan's attainment in ice-element immortal arts was profound, yet her performance now still left her stunned.

Seeing Su Liyan's expression, Lu Yuan couldn't help but nod in approval. "We must find a way to defend the Mysterious Yellow Ancient City and hurry to the North Pole Ghost City as soon as possible." Su Liyan surveyed the crowd, her expression resolute.

Lu Yuan nodded, agreeing: "Yes, we cannot be swayed by the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect."

"We must prevent them from obtaining the power of the Dragon Bone Heavenly Seal."

King Qi gripped the Demon-Breaking Golden Wheel tightly, gnashing his teeth as he said: "These cult organizations are truly lawless, so audaciously attempting to violate the order of Xian Jie!"

"If I hadn't received intelligence about the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect, I wouldn't have come here."

Gu Qingwan said calmly: "Now is not the time to blame anyone."

"We must cooperate together to deal with this dangerous situation."

At this moment, Shuangxue Yinshi looked at everyone's solemn expression, suddenly narrowed his eyes and smiled, saying: "I hear you are looking for a solution?"

"Perhaps I have a secret to tell you."

Su Linglong stared intently at Shuangxue Yinshi, her heart full of anticipation.

She could sense the hermit's wisdom and knowledge, believing he would bring them important clues.

Shuangxue Yinshi smiled and said: "Regarding the North Pole Ghost City, I have once heard of a rare treasure called the Purifying Heaven Spirit Herb."

"It possesses a powerful purifying force that can counteract the chaotic aura of evil forces."

Upon hearing this news, everyone's eyes lit up involuntarily.

Su Liyan asked nervously: "Where is the Purifying Heaven Spirit Herb in the North Pole Ghost City?"

"How can we find it?"

Shuangxue Yinshi smiled mysteriously, took out a small spell formation from his sleeve and handed it to Su Linglong, saying: "I have heard that the Purifying Heaven Spirit Herb is hidden in the Lost Land deep within the North Pole Ghost City, but I have specially crafted this spell formation for you to provide protection and positioning for teleportation."

Su Linglong received the spell formation, carefully examining the patterns and incantations on it.

She could feel that the spell formation emanated a sense of safety.

"Thank you!"

Su Linglong looked gratefully at Shuangxue Yinshi: "We will do our utmost to protect the Mysterious Yellow Ancient City and find the Purifying Heaven Spirit Herb to thwart the cults' plot."

The others also nodded in agreement.

They understood in their hearts that their mission had become more arduous and dangerous, yet they had no intention of retreating in the slightest.

Gu Qingwan smiled and said: "We need to devise a plan of action, ensuring that everyone understands their tasks and responsibilities."

Everyone began to discuss the concrete plan, each person putting forward their own suggestions and ideas.

At this turbulent moment, their mutual trust and understanding became even more important.

They believed that as long as they stood united, they could overcome any difficulty.

Lu Yuan gazed at everyone's earnest and resolute expression, his heart filled with determination. (End of chapter)
