Chapter 967: Qi Xi
Daoist Nun Lady Xiangchun, after all, had a relationship with the Dragon Clan. Although she had never heard of any connection between the Dragon Clan and the Dou Xuan orthodoxy, the Dragon Clan was one of the greatest forces under heaven, backed by the Dragon Lord, and ultimately had its own methods. Although there were potential conflicts of interest, and it was possible that the Dragon Clan would turn against Li Zhouwei in the future, and the current methods were unclear, the White Dragon had given mostly benefits so far. When Li Zhouwei broke through, the Dragon Clan even sent spiritual treasures. He also nodded to this Daoist Nun and replied:
"It's a coincidence, let's go together."
After all, the surrounding territories had been searched almost clean, and there was nowhere else to go. It was just right to let her lead the way, saving his own family some effort.
Hearing this, Lady Xiangchun's expression improved. True Person Yuming to the side shook his sleeves and said very broadly: "The old man just came in to try his luck. Now that I have had a good harvest, I am satisfied, and I won't go deep to explore. I will take a look around here, take some small things, and find a weak point in the array to go back!"
This was undoubtedly a wise choice. Although True Person Yuming did not have much lifespan left and came with the intention of risking his life to save family property, no matter what, he had to bring it out to count. If he really lost his life here, he would undoubtedly be empty-handed, and would have even lost quite a bit.
Seeing him ride the wind and depart, Lady Lady Xiangchun nodded in acknowledgment before flying up alongside Li Zhouwei, whispering, "Jiangbei is unstable. Xiu Yue has remained with its mountains closed and has not emerged, and the Shen family has lost much of their territory. It is just that the old man is shrewd; he has taken advantage of the situation to move people overseas. By entrusting them to the outer seas, I reckon... in a practical sense, they intend to become an overseas noble family."
Li Zhouwei nodded secretly. With the 【Zhen Tao Prefecture】 outside, his own family's conditions were also extremely good, and he also had the confidence to flee far away. If it weren't for his family being a key piece, he would have left early today, only replying: "After all, it is also a lack of successors... and the north of the river is dangerous."
Lady Xiangchun shook her head gloomily:
"Not necessarily... the danger is true."
The Dragon Clan controlled the East Sea. If the Shen family had any layout, it was nine times out of ten that they couldn't escape the Dragon Clan's eyes. Li Zhouwei secretly remembered this, but saw Lady Xiangchun whispering while hurrying on the road:
"Fellow daoist hasn't come out of the lake often in recent years?"
Li Zhouwei nodded lightly. After all, the general trend of the north and south was here, and he had concerns for his clan, so he didn't have much room to go out, replying: "After all, Wangyue Lake is by the river, and the wind and waves are hard to settle."
But saw Lady Xiangchun's eyes flowing, whispering:
"Not necessarily... there are indeed several families still having ideas about fellow daoist, it is estimated that they will come to test, if fellow daoist sincerely wants to protect the bloodline on the lake, naturally it is not suitable to move lightly, but wait for fellow daoist to advance further, with three divine abilities on his body, or advance further, achieve a Great True Person, divine ability perfected, it doesn't matter..."
"After all, by that time, those who can say they suppress fellow daoist by a chip under heaven can be counted on one's fingers. Small people can certainly test, but they can no longer bear the price of testing."
Her expression gradually became solemn, with a few more points of stability: "When that time comes, you can come to the East Sea to sit more. The Dragon Son has many protections for fellow daoist in front of the various lineages, if fellow daoist is willing to come to the Dragon Palace a few times later, to meet, it will also make him more calm."
Li Zhouwei pondered slightly, understanding that the Dragon Son she spoke of was Ding Jiao. This White Dragon lineage Crown Prince had quite a bearing, and his father, the Dragon King of Beihai, were both factions that supported and indulged himself, this White Qilin, and wanted to make friends. They had come to make friends with him very early, and even specifically took him to see the former Crown Prince of Wei...
"Now it seems, true or false is unknown, at least besides this, no dragon is willing to come into contact, and the White Dragon lineage has also borne quite a bit of pressure..."
Li Zhouwei was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Thank you, fellow daoist, for the reminder."
She smiled slightly, changed the subject, and finally asked:
"I heard... Wu Guang Luoxia did not leave instructions for the various orthodoxies, and turned a blind eye to fellow daoist's existence... this is interesting, I don't know where True Person Xue went south."
Her eyes were bright, staring straight at Li Zhouwei, but it looked like she was asking and answering herself, saying: "True Person Xue has perfected divine abilities, five methods reached the extreme, Yu Wei is in sight, placed in the ancient times, he is also a person who acts as a palace master of an immortal prefecture. You look at the vastness of Wanling Heaven, if he were born in Wanling Heaven, he would also sit on the side of the person at the very top."
"True Person Xue?!"
Li Zhouwei's mind manifested the appearance of that person back then, and he said somewhat unintentionally: "True Person Xue? I don't know the honorable name..."
Daoist Nun Lady Xiangchun turned her head, her eyes were inexplicable, replying:
"Surname Xue, single name Yang, is the Wu Guang Xuan orthodoxy, Tong Xuan True Cultivator."
"Tong Xuan True Cultivator..."
Li Zhouwei raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately:
"Is it a figure of the level of True Person Donghua?"
Daoist Nun Lady Xiangchun did not expect him to bring up Li Jiangqun, pondered and said: "It is very difficult to compare like this. Luoxia dares to call itself Wu Guang Xuan orthodoxy, expounding the teachings, as the Tong Xuan master of the world. Back then, the Yuan Prefecture did not have such a statement, but it dared to call itself Yuan Prefecture, and also had the posture of a Xuan master. In this point, it is somewhat similar, but... True Person Donghua, although his talent far exceeded him, the orthodoxy was desolate at that time... when he died young, his Dao practice was not as good as his today, I am afraid it cannot be compared..."
"Yuan Prefecture..."
Li Zhouwei heard her words, and only then realized belatedly. There were many immortal prefectures heard of over the years, but when Gao Xiu mentioned Yuan Prefecture, it must refer to the Moon Flower Immortal Prefecture on Wangyue Lake, and even called it Moon Flower Yuan Prefecture directly. It seemed there was a reason: "So it is like this... It seems True Person Donghua is the successor of the Moon Flower Xuan orthodoxy."
"Not bad."
She said gloomily: "Qing Xuan True Cultivator, one of the three XUAN."
This woman followed the Dragon Clan and knew quite a bit. She lifted her eyebrows and looked over, quite cold: "In the ancient times, the gold position had many masters, and this name also has research. The titles of Golden Core are many, divided into 【Divine Sovereign】, 【Prefecture Sovereign】, 【True Sovereign】, 【Imperial Sovereign】 according to authority and orthodoxy... Now the order has collapsed, and all are called True Sovereigns, it's just that a few have the carefree appearance of True Sovereigns... it is hard to say."
Her words stopped abruptly, and she lifted her eyebrows and looked over: "Isn't your family's Emperor Wei the 【Ming Hua Huang Yuan Imperial Sovereign who governs the world】? Tuoba Xuantan should also be called Imperial Sovereign, most of the rest are not worthy of the name, and they are ashamed to call themselves so, Emperor Qi... even more so dare not!"
So the words had a smile:
"Shi Chang has a ghost in his heart! Although it is a hero created by the times, this hero is not competent..."
"Pushed to the forefront by the times, he changed the gold position to his hand on his own, knowing that he was sitting on a volcano, he wanted to eagerly seek the gold virtue by his own merits, but trusted the wrong person, to the point of death and national destruction, the clan system was slaughtered, and he was calculated cleanly by the adults of the gold orthodoxy... 'Xi Qi' can still carry two leap positions today, it is also the credit of his predecessors!"
Li Zhouwei listened quietly. His Dao practice was getting higher, so he naturally understood, and his heart operated like electricity.
"West West Shaoyang is divided into three, North Yao and West Yan both have directions in their names, which are North West West Shaoyang and West West West Shaoyang in Dao method, but I have never heard of Dragon Lord Xi Yang being East West West Shaoyang—but there is a 'Xi' in the name! West West Shaoyang gives birth to Xi, it is extremely likely that this adult was assigned to the 'Xi Qi' position!"
Only then did he know that there was no master in the 'Xi Qi' position, but the majesty was still there today. It was originally for a reason. After all, Dragon Lord Xi Yang, who had one of the bones of the West West Shaoyang Demon Sovereign, was walking in the world. Listening to Lady Xiangchun's meaning, there was even a leap position back then...
"No wonder, even if there is no master for the fruit position... it is no different from the manifest position."
His thoughts stirred slightly, but Lady Xiangchun didn't care so much, saying coldly:
"And Tian Wu True Qi... the adult has the reputation of Imperial Sovereign, but refuses to admit it himself."
True Sovereign Tian Wu had always been respected, and Lady Xiangchun was no exception. She was not polite when mentioning those True Sovereigns who had already passed away, only calling True Sovereign Tian Wu an adult. Li Zhouwei silently pondered the details in her words, but suddenly noticed Lady Xiangchun, who had stopped abruptly, and lifted her head together: then saw a dim white light flowing in the distance, vaguely able to detect a white array that traversed the long sky filling the field of vision, and intense divine ability colors were slowly diffusing, thunder and true fire appearing on the barrier one by one.
This place was still a very long distance from that place. Li Zhouwei's golden eyes were sharp, but he could still see streams of light scattered far and near in the sky.
"There are truly quite a few figures."
The two did not rush forward. Lady Xiangchun pinched her fingers slightly, seemingly calculating something, while Li Zhouwei looked around, took a look, but saw a piece of gold, causing him to frown:
"Hmm?"
His eyes narrowed slightly, able to see that there were cultivators fighting in the overlapping phantom colors. His dark investigation ability operated secretly, and Lady Xiangchun to the side also noticed it, whispering: "It's still early, why don't we go and share a piece of the pie first."
Li Zhouwei's dark investigation saw clearly, and he had the intention to speak early. At this moment, he just rode the light forward. The piece of golden light magnified rapidly before his eyes, actually manifesting various brilliant lights. It was the Release Cultivators forming an array, with infinite brilliance!
Having arrived not far away, Lady Xiangchun also understood, looking quietly at the middle-aged man surrounded by the brilliance, whispering:
"Does Minghuang recognize him?"
If he really wanted to calculate, Li Zhouwei had truly never seen him, but the golden clouds in the sky were holding up, the mysterious pass that stretched infinitely, his family had records early on, and he still recognized it—it was the Bright Yang spiritual treasure 【Huai River Map】! And under the protection of this spiritual treasure, the green light was as hard as gold, intertwined and transformed, holding up a middle-aged man with an embarrassed expression—it was none other than Si Yuanli.
The brilliance in the sky shrouded, and a massive golden body stood in the air. A golden body with a long face and black eyes, born with a pair of horse ears, looked extremely terrifying, but very familiar. It was the old enemy 【Tai Xi】 without a doubt.
Another golden body was even more massive, snow-white all over, draped in layers of feathers behind it. There were three faces on the Release head, each making crying and laughing expressions on the sides, and the face in front was extremely majestic, eyes glaring.
The two avoided from afar, Si Yuanli could not detect it, only supporting bitterly amidst the siege of the two Jinlian Mohe. He had a spiritual treasure for protection, and grabbed several talismans from his storage bag at will, holding them in his hand, still calm.
"Has some friendship with the family."
Li Zhouwei replied, and Daoist Nun Lady Xiangchun said: "A three-generation 【Tai Xi】, a four-generation 【Yan Bai】, their strength is not bad. He can actually support it, without half a point of compromise, he is also a greedy one."
After all, there were many opportunities in the grotto-heaven, everyone didn't want to waste time, being able to stalemate like this, it was mostly because Si Yuanli refused to hand over a single thing. Li Zhouwei was just worried that 【Bright Manifestation Sun and Moon】's blessing had nowhere to be used! Just holding up the halberd, he replied:
"Release Cultivator's affairs, I insist on intervening."
Daoist Nun Lady Xiangchun smiled:
"Fellow daoist go ahead, I will suppress the formation for you, just give me a reminder when the great array is about to break, if you can't come back in time, I can't wait much longer."
"Naturally."
Li Zhouwei's golden eyes moved, his dark investigation had already discovered quite a few clues. At this moment, he rode the light and rose, galloping away. The "Gate of Audience to Heaven" immediately appeared from the sky, carrying rolling bright atmosphere, and smashed down with a roar.
"Boom!"
Colorful light and atmosphere continued to rise. Tai Xi, who was urging the brilliance to suppress the Si Yuanli below, saw that the latter had no ability to break through, and even hesitated. Proud for a moment, Jinlian Mohe always liked to provoke others' arrogance, not to mention such a high-level Early Zifu cultivator, immediately sarcastically smiled:
"Fellow daoist had better take some things out! Who else can save you? Chi Buzi?! Hahaha!"
Just as this sarcastic smile and words fell, Tai Xi suddenly felt cold behind his back. Lifting his head, caught off guard, he saw golden light galloping over, the heavenly gate descending, and was instantly shocked: "'Gate of Audience to Heaven'?"
"It's Li Zhouwei!"
His heart was both shocked and angry, and he immediately urged magic power. Golden light rose, and a purple-black spiritual bowl jumped out from his chest, leaping up, sucking the rolling heavenly light into it, but greedy for the treasure, he dared not truly block the 【Empty Xi Subduing Demon Bowl】 beneath the "Gate of Audience to Heaven," only spitting out golden light:
"Tai!"
Si Yuanli had been suppressed here by the two, and had long been embarrassed and awkward, his face pale, hesitating about sharing spiritual objects, but fearing that the two people's strength suppressed him too much, and he couldn't escape without bleeding heavily. A nest of fire was hidden in his heart. Once he saw this appearance, he was overjoyed!
"Fellow daoist Minghuang! Thank you for your help! There will be a generous reward!"
He had called Li Xuanfeng by his generation back then, but now he called him affectionately. Watching the Bright Yang phantom colors descending from the sky, he felt this color was particularly pleasing, and sighed in his heart: "This Wangyue Lake really didn't go wrong! This marriage was really calculated accurately! Actually able to call Li Zhouwei to make a move!"
The bright colors in the sky exploded. 【Upper Luminary Subduing Light】 collided with the golden Qi spat out from Tai Xi's mouth in advance, smashing it to pieces, but a white Qi galloped over, manifesting beneath the "Gate of Audience to Heaven"! It was that snow-white, three-faced Jinlian Mohe. Crying and laughing sounds rang out simultaneously, and a copper seal was held high in his hand. The mouth divine ability operated, pouring into Li Zhouwei's face like thunder: "Tuo!"
Li Zhouwei's "Monarch Treads on Danger" divine ability operated, holding the halberd to kill, scale patterns appeared, the Release sound that should have poured into his mind all failed, leaving only the substantial magic power rushing over. Before his weapon, they were all divided into two sections, circling around him unwillingly in golden light.
This Jinlian Mohe was not afraid in the slightest, specifically taking out a copper seal of standard size to slightly block the descending heavenly gate, three expressions on his face showing anger simultaneously! Having been accustomed to acting domineeringly in the north, he had already shouted out:
"Bold monster!"
This familiar sentence rang in his ears. Li Zhouwei smiled in anger, his eyes gradually brightened, the solar eclipse omen appeared between his brows, and "Monarch Treads on Danger" had already killed his way to this Jinlian Mohe:
"What kind of goods!"
Golden-black flowing lights erupted, competing to be first. In this brightness, they all locked onto 【Yan Bai】's body, causing his expression to change.
"Boom!"
The sturdy Jinlian Mohe dharma body stiffened for an instant, collision marks appeared on his body, and golden-black flowing lights tapped lightly on his body, climbing up his limbs rapidly, emitting ear-piercing creaking sounds.
"Monster has guts!"
Tai Xi to the side had a slightly changed expression, stepping into the air, secretly regretting in his heart: "The cultivators of this Great Mu Dharma World are one by one stubborn... insisting on provoking him! What enmity or grudge do you have with him... when the time comes, people won't be willing to retreat, and what kind of good temper is White Qilin!"
He understood that he couldn't delay, immediately rode the 【Empty Xi Subduing Demon Bowl】, suppressing the Si Yuanli whose divine ability was slightly exhausted below with full strength, an evil look appearing on his face:
"If fellow daoist still refuses to retreat, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
But he realized that Si Yuanli had long since loosened his dharma formula, standing there with a strange expression.
"Hmm?"
He turned his gaze with delayed realization, only then discovering that, at some unknown time, a man in green robes had stood beside him, silent and ghost-like. The man watched him with a smile, toying with a small Lu Shui tripod in his hand. The ink-colored beads at his waist were heavy, and the golden tassels drifted in the wind.
Seeing Tai Xi look over, various Lu River light shadows manifested around, suffocating divine abilities continued to rise, all locking onto Tai Xi, causing him not to dare to move a fraction. This person even opened his mouth and smiled, revealing clean and neat teeth: "Fellow daoist recognizes me, right? Hmm?"
