Chapter 970: Oath of Xixiao (112) (Bonus chapter 310 for the Bai Yin Alliance)
This yellow-robed True Person's heart immediately became complicated and suspended. Just looking at those golden eyes and the golden patterns flashing on his neck, his mouth felt bitter, and he actually didn't know how to deal with it! The bright spiritual artifact in his hand dimmed slightly, and he didn't make a sound, nor did he have any extra movements, retreating a step. That complex emotion had just surged into his heart, and for no reason, a sense of fear actually arose!
'Mingyang is overbearing. I forced Cui Cui Jueyin to return to the state... which was already a violation of the 【Oath of Xixiao】! And I hurt his face. I am afraid it is a great shame. It would be better not to meet, but now that he has suddenly seen me...'
The Cui family originated from the West Sea. Their ancestors moved away from the East Sea when Li Brother Xuan restored the country. Whether it was said that the Cui family branched out, gradually became less close to the main lineage, and was unwilling to bear the karma of a hundred generations, or whether it was the Cui family's means of preserving their bloodline in Chongzhou... this branch of the West Sea Cui family was all for the sake of cutting off past karma... and clearly stood against the Li family! He thought he hadn't done anything wrong, but in the eyes of the Imperial Descendant, how could there be such right and wrong...
His heart suddenly hung to the top, heavenly light flickered at his feet, and his divine ability felt a bit shorter in front of the person before him, actually having the impulse to flee! But the blue-robed True Person on the side frowned, his heart also sinking: 'It's Li Li Zhouwei!'
This True Person was from 【Mount Qusi Mountain】 in the South Sea. Several hundred years ago, it was the same family as True Person Lin Jingyi's 【Lin Jingyi Mountain】, and they were considered fellow sect members, and they were still very close. He actually knew Wangyue Li — Xuanyi had said it himself: 'Wei Li... fighting is also not appropriate...'
He secretly sighed: 'Although Xuanyi said that his family had quite a friendship with some True Person Can Zhaojing, there was no proof, and it was really difficult to explain. But the love between Cui and Li is known to the world, he will definitely stand on Yangya's side... it is better not to cause a misunderstanding!'
So he didn't argue a word, and didn't even waste time, drove the light, and transformed into rolling dharma wind and dispersed...
This scene was quite ironic. Whether it was Li Li Zhouwei or Yangya, they both understood why the other would retreat easily. For a time, it made Yangya embarrassed and didn't know how to advance or retreat:
According to the law, as a Purple Mansion of the Cui family, he received the Wei orthodoxy, saw the Bai Lin, and should kneel and bow, calling him an adult — even calling him Your Highness, or calling him Sovereign was not too much! 'In the cave heaven, all the adults are watching. If this sentence is called out... it is equivalent to letting the West Sea Cui family, and even Chongzhou, stand in line!'
But if this sentence is not called, how can Yangya be better off?
How did the Cui family start? Back then, they were just a noble family in the ridge, no different from the Lin family and Qi family. It was the Wei Di and the Cui family ancestor Cui Yan who combined as monarch and minister, and made an oath on Xixiao Mountain to create a great cause together!
The promise the Wei Di made at that time was:
【In the Wei Dynasty, the monarch is the master of Shang-Yao】.
Cui Yan then said:
【I have received grace and pity, I assist the heavenly branches, the clan and relatives, if there is any failure, dare to insult the lower people... the light will kill my body】.
Later, one became the Mingyang Imperial Sovereign, and one became the Shang-Yao True Person, and the oath was fulfilled. Throughout the Wei Dynasty, the Cui family enjoyed spiritual glory and achieved the first family — at the peak of the Heavenly Dynasty, and also when it was about to perish, Cui Mu could even pretend to be a True Person by the law of the Heavenly Dynasty... What kind of nobility was this?
Reading that history, every descendant of the Cui family would be shocked. Even if the subsequent history was endless blood and tears, the Cui family had also experienced true glory. When descendants asked about the past, they could proudly answer: "I am the clan and relative of the True Person."
Wei Li's past was both the Cui family's blood and tears, and also the Cui family's brightest and proudest place. Cui Yushan was no exception, remembering it extremely deeply. Even if he was the most persistent person to cut off from the Li family, he had not had dreams in the middle of the night when he was young, dreaming of the Imperial Sovereign descending to the world and the world having a monarch and father again.
Even Yangya could understand why the predecessors went one after another to revive the Wei country:
'The Qi Emperor destroyed the country and burned its books three times. Apart from the fact that the Chongzhou Cui family had reservations overseas... everything else was almost wiped out. 【Oath of Xixiao】 is indeed not remembered by many people today... but...'
'But the oath made by the two adults, everyone in the world may not remember, but there is one thing that must remember clearly.'
'Mingyang Fruit Position!'
Just as Cui Yan said — 【Light kills my body】, this was an agreement between an Imperial Sovereign and a True Person. Without this light hanging high above his head, even if the Cui family's family style was good, they couldn't do it generation after generation, each and every one of them forgetting death for the people! 【Oath of Xixiao】 no longer had any binding force, but it was always a hope for the Cui family. Those who cultivated other orthodoxies might be better, but he Yangya cultivated Mingyang. Even if he could laugh at this oath as empty on weekdays, seeing the Bai Lin at this moment, he couldn't help but hesitate: 'Who knows if there is Mingyang's attention on him? Who knows which part of Mingyang he represents?'
Under these overlapping conflicts, he could only stand stiffly on the side, not daring to leave, nor daring to speak, bowing slightly, standing like a sculpture, waiting silently.
Li Li Zhouwei had no time to pay attention to him, treating him as if there was no one beside him, untied 【Hua-Yang Wang-Yue】 from his waist, and dealt with the array. As time flowed, the white light covering this place was clearly becoming thinner and thinner, decaying at an exaggerated speed. Just one halberd, and the white light was smashed to pieces! He lifted his sleeves, sweeping away all the things on the platform, secretly probing, knowing that the side hall on the other side had already been taken away by others, swept a glance at Yangya who was standing silently on the side, and stepped away without saying a word.
This move simply saved his life! Yangya broke out in a cold sweat, and only then felt relieved, hurriedly driving the wind and leaving. His panic dissipated, leaving only empty lingering fear and complexity, and he actually felt lost: 'Can my Cui family really hide from it... does all this still have meaning? If every time Wei Li appears, the Cui family needs to be buried with him, is it my turn today?'
'If I stay out of it... does it mean... the sacrifice of the predecessors has all become a scene...'
He was infinitely lost in his heart, fleeing in a sorry state, traversing in the empty world, his heart cold, actually doubting: "Is it a curse from generation to generation, or is it a temptation again and again? The Cui family predecessors forgot death generation after generation, because of loyalty, or because they all wanted to be the protagonist of the 【Oath of Xixiao】?"
"Clang!"
Rolling true fire storms operated in the mountains, traversing through the green palace. The golden-clad cultivator stood quietly in the hall, and the wandering true fire blew through his sleeves, smashing into the hall with a boom.
This golden-clad man put away his sleeves, and the True Person on the other side retreated a step, his expression sinking, while operating true Qi water and fire to block the true fire, lowering his brows and saying:
"True Person Shilou is really not polite!"
Shilou Yingge's expression was calm, and the divine ability in his hand was not polite at all, making him look like a true fire furnace, shining brightly, transforming into thousands of flowing lights and hitting the person before him. He said casually:
"True Person Lin is joking, how can it be a time to be polite!"
He responded, while his gaze swept silently across the sky.
The colorful light in the sky was becoming less and less.
You know, the Purple Mansion cultivators gathered here were the most in a hundred years, far exceeding the Anhuai Heaven back then. No matter how big this mountain range was, it was like child's play before the various Purple Mansion cultivators. In the blink of an eye, it had been divided.
And the fighting of the several Great True Persons in the center was becoming more and more intense, the entire sky was rumbling, several Dao towers had already collapsed, and the spiritual treasures had their own masters, but they still refused to stop, instead enjoying themselves, having the intention of comparing who was higher and who was lower! More fatally, as the magic treasures were slowly lifted, the miraculousness was stimulated, and the sealing and storage power of this place became stronger and stronger. So those who obtained the treasures fled hurriedly, and those who didn't also felt uneasy, preferring to chase hurriedly rather than linger in this dangerous place.
You know, there were infinite bones around this mountain range, and there were quite a few good things inside... and there were even quite a few orthodoxies left behind, so naturally they couldn't be missed! More Purple Mansion cultivators had enough harvest, immediately restrained their greed, scattered to all places, and prepared to leave the cave heaven.
'Those who are still staying here to fight... are mostly mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivators...'
He retracted his gaze, swept his vision from the jade platform in the center, frowned secretly, the true fire on his body surged more and more, but he suddenly raised his brows, golden-red light jumped in his hand, and he sneered: "Fellow Daoist, you have been waiting for a long time!"
Sure enough, seeing the clouds surging, a black light fell from the sky, wanting to fall onto the jade platform, but was blocked by the golden-red light, surging with pieces of gloomy clouds, black light flashing.
Shilou Yingge changed his expression slightly:
"Wu-Lu Dao?"
True Person Lin blinked, half-sarcastic, half-probing, and smiled:
"What kind of figure, actually dares to block the path of the Wang-Hou of the Northern Family!"
This man didn't speak, smiled slightly, and a voice rang in everyone's ears:
"Nan-Shun Luo-She, Jiao-Zhong-Zi!"
"Bold!"
Shilou Yingge had heard of the name Nan-Shun Luo-She, and the reputation of Di-Lu Tian-Sang-Lin was not small. He was a rare pillar of the Wu-Lu Dao after Senior Duanmu Kui. But although Di-Lu Tian-Sang-Lin was powerful, at a glance, Shilou Yingge saw that this person's divine ability was not high, and sneered.
But Jiao-Zhong-Zi's eyes lit up, and rolling brown-red fire sprayed out from between his brows, falling suddenly! 【Shao-Shang Xiang-Fire】
This short delay, True Person Lin on the side did not let go, seemingly motionless in place, but the divine ability had already leaped over, and brilliance rose, but a dark and heavy light fell, suppressing his divine ability, and a short and fat man appeared, it was Lord Murong Yan.
"Fellow Daoist Lin! Long time no see!"
Lord Murong Yan was still that short and fat appearance, and it seemed that the predicament during this period of time didn't leave any trace on him, laughing loudly, and the Qin water divine ability shrouded down, dragging the person before him firmly!
"Colluding for evil!"
True Person Lin snorted coldly, but there was no surprise.
Lord Murong Yan appeared in time, but Shilou Yingge didn't have half a bit of joy on his face, but suddenly rose with fire. Colorful clouds were rippling in the sky, heavenly light appeared, and the heavenly gate fell suddenly!
'Yetian Gate'
This heavenly gate was truly a signboard, making everyone react instantly!
'Li Li Zhouwei!'
Everyone froze, Shilou Yingge's expression was calm, but his eyes were suddenly sharp and determined!
'He finally came!'
True Person Lin raised his brows slightly, his face was the most plain among the few, clearly knowing the grievances between the few, holding the attitude of watching a good show, while Jiao-Zhong-Zi drove the black Qi, his expression somewhat pondering, and there was even a bit of expectation in his eyes.
Only that short and fat Lord Murong Yan, the expression on his face had already been greatly different from before. He could no longer see any eagerness or interest, but a deep haze surged in an instant, and those eyes were full of suspicion, staring gloomily at the sky.
'Li Li Zhouwei... Li Li Zhouwei!'
Lord Murong Yan was not stupid. He also had his own backing in the Lord Murong family. The dangerous situation on the river bank last time made him realize, and after many negotiations, he gradually understood his situation! Now that he saw Li Li Zhouwei, he didn't know how much suspicion he had!
But no matter what the few people were thinking, Jiao-Zhong-Zi intended to restrain Shilou Yingge, and Lord Murong Yan didn't want to have half a bit of contact with Li Li Zhouwei, so for a time, they restricted each other, causing 'Yetian Gate' to fall suddenly! "Boom!"
For a time, divine ability surged, blowing up a terrifying spiritual machine storm, and the massive array that was already crumbling finally couldn't hold on, and the jade platform shattered with a boom!
This was exactly Li Li Zhouwei's plot! Everyone's divine ability interacted, and their strength was not weak. Lord Murong Yan and Shilou Yingge colluded, and this place was not easy to snatch. It was better to take advantage of the mutual restriction of the few people, release the things inside, and snatch them in the chaos!
Sure enough, the white light shattered instantly, and six golden flowing lights flew out!
"What a pity..."
Shilou Yingge felt a burst of regret in his heart, but the divine ability in his hand didn't slow down half a bit. The golden clothes instantly fluttered, and golden-red true fire surged out from his body, transforming into thousands of flowing lights and hitting the person before him:
"'Zhi-Li Row'!"
The light of the witchcraft technique dissipated, and the true fire bound the golden light, hooking it into his palm. Shilou Yingge narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a piece of jade with golden patterns in his palm, emitting faint brilliance.
'Only got one-sixth...'
Shilou Yingge didn't have much joy, already knowing that there was no possibility of snatching other things, turned around, and cast his gaze toward the golden-eyed youth who was also holding the golden flowing light not far away.
The two people's gazes collided silently in the air.
One golden and one red, two rays of flowing light leaped into the air, traversing the sky of the cave heaven at an extremely terrifying speed, making sharp sonic booms in the sky, changing countless sceneries, flowing light traversing, and finally stopped in unison! "Boom!"
In an instant, the intense true fire golden-red circled in the sky, burning the sky into a sea of fire!
The golden-red true fire sprayed over, filling the field of vision in an instant. A hand as white as jade pierced out from the fire, and four crimson mysterious-patterned small swords circled and flew in the palm, reflecting in Li Li Zhouwei's golden eyes.
Similarly, the bright white edge of the halberd was also raised!
"Clang clang clang..."
【Da-Sheng】 danced, the bright golden main body and the illusory, pure golden 【Xiao-Fu】 miraculousness flashed alternately, colliding a hundred times with these four crimson mysterious-patterned small swords in the blink of an eye. The intense heavenly light and true fire exploded together, and the four crimson mysterious-patterned small swords had already jumped back to Shilou Yingge's sleeves. The man's figure was illusory, his eyes cold: 'Zhi-Li Row'! This divine ability operated with full strength, and over a hundred true fire Zhi-Li shadows emerged from him, transforming into over a hundred Shilou Yingge in this rolling sea of fire. These Zhi-Li mysterious shadows lit up their eyes together, and their hands formed seals on their chests: "【Shu-Brother Xuan Qing-Ping Light】!"
The connection between divine ability and magic technique actually didn't have a moment of pause. Just this one move showed Shilou Yingge's attainments in true fire!
These hundred rays of true fire light sprayed out, and Departure Fire actually grew under the light, sweeping across the sky. Li Li Zhouwei threw lightly, throwing out a green light.
This green light flew and enlarged in the air, transforming into a green square tripod, the mysterious bird patterns suddenly brightened! Releasing rolling suction, it rolled the true fire light thrown here, locking it firmly! 【Bi-Ting Qing-Yuan Brother Xuan Tripod】! And Li Li Zhouwei floated in the air, his whole body shining with heavenly light, without half a bit of damage in the rolling Departure Fire, and the 【Shang-Yao Fu-Guang】 between his brows suddenly emerged, like a golden light blade traversing the sky, sweeping across, cutting all the various phantoms to pieces! "Clang!"
But the Departure Fire surged, and four crimson mysterious-patterned small swords appeared beside him. Shilou Yingge actually transformed from the Departure Fire, and the sword edge was bright, clearly having been urged to the extreme.
"Boom!"
The intense Departure Fire light exploded in the world, and Li Li Zhouwei fell into the clouds again, the heavenly gate of the 'Yetian Gate' appeared from the sky, and the heavenly light shone, forcing the Departure Fire back!
'What a strong divine ability!'
Sighing was sighing, but he keenly captured the opponent's stagnation. This technique was indeed powerful, but after escaping from 【Diqi Light】, it was already a miracle that he could still release the dharma technique. It was impossible to adjust his breath for a while! So the brilliance between his brows became brighter and brighter, like scale-like mysterious patterns gradually climbing on his face, covering Li Li Zhouwei's face, and 'Jun Jun Daowei' had already operated to the extreme.
"Clang!"
The long halberd actually broke through the blockade, rushed the four crimson mysterious-patterned small swords apart, and pierced toward Shilou Yingge's heart amidst the true fire! 'What a strong divine ability!'
Shilou Yingge's 'Zhi-Li Row' operated with full strength, matched with other blessings, and its power was absolutely extraordinary! Ordinary cultivators' dharma bodies would also grimace if they touched it, even if they were cultivators who had refined the body divine ability, it wouldn't be so simple to ignore!
Seeing Li Li Zhouwei see through his weakness and charge over, he pressed his two fingers together and pushed forward, and immediately true fire light scattered! Shilou Yingge had high Dao practice and good spiritual artifacts. For many years, he only needed to practice with peace of mind, without having to run around like Helian Helian Wujiang, turning around for the clan. His strength was originally a step higher... More importantly, his understanding of Mingyang was also far better than Helian Helian Wujiang! Helian Helian Wujiang's golden light was a pure bewitching and fixing technique, not mixed with half a bit of extra power, and it was evil Qi evil technique, restrained by him everywhere, failing to play half a bit of effect. But Shilou Yingge's true fire light, although it had the ability of bewilderment, was more of a substantial light-evil combination, accurately falling on him.
'Jun Jun Daowei''s light rose as promised, sweeping away this bewitching divine ability, but the rolling light-evil followed one after another, fluttering and falling on him, causing his charge to be curbed.
'Jun Jun Daowei''s miraculousness Li Li Zhouwei had some insights when snatching the Departure Fire spiritual treasure just now, and at this moment, there was no accident. The long halberd pointed forward, stabbing urgently, and the speed still made Shilou Yingge slightly surprised. The crimson mysterious-patterned small swords were summoned urgently, but his heart sighed:
'Can't keep it anymore!'
So he opened his mouth slightly, his throat was bright, and the dharma light that had been nurtured in the Great Palace for nearly a hundred years sprayed out, flickering rapidly in the air. The intense solar light spread rapidly, covering the true fire and heavenly light: 【Solar Ping-Yi Mysterious Light】! "Buzz..."
The bright solar colors instantly shrouded the world, and the terrifying power of the first manifestation of the day was revealed without doubt. The scorching light fell, smashing onto Li Li Zhouwei with a clang, causing him to fall into the clouds like a meteor!
"Boom!"
The massive solar light rose from the ground, blowing up a bright white storm. The colorful clouds and sky in the sky all dispersed, and the clouds retreated, forming a massive blank circle.
Shilou Yingge's expression was pale, and he breathed deeply twice, only then recovering from the intense magic power consumption. His gaze cast low toward the storm under the clouds.
'No Mingyang color... 'Jun Jun Daowei' is rigid, this blow is not enough to make him seriously injured, it needs to come a few more times.'
But Shilou Yingge's thoughts had just settled, and at this instant, he suddenly felt dizzy, as if a spiritual sword had pierced into his mind, constantly stirring.
Intense pain poured into his spiritual sense. He wanted to open his eyes, but all kinds of golden light viciously drilled into his pupils, making him almost cry out in pain: "Not good!"
Shilou Yingge was shocked in his heart. Those eyes were forcibly widened, divine ability poured in, and only then did he see something from the messy and complex golden light.
It was a pair of golden mysterious rings.
The mysterious rings were only the thickness of a finger, looking unremarkable, but they faintly released white-golden light, constantly shaking, speeding over, and enlarging rapidly in his eyes.
'Spiritual treasure!'

Shi Louyingge's heart was startled. Those eyes were forcibly widened, and divine abilities were poured in, only then seeing something amidst the chaotic and complex golden light.
It was a pair of golden mysterious rings.
The mysterious rings were only as thick as a finger and looked unremarkable, but they faintly bloomed with white-gold light, constantly shaking, rushing over, and rapidly enlarging in his eyes.
"Spiritual treasure!"
