Chapter 308: Forbidden Area

Daluo Peak, back mountain.

This had always been the forbidden area of the Daluo Sect; only the Sect Master holding the Daluo Token could unlock the restrictions here and enter the forbidden area of the back mountain.

At this time, two Sect Masters had arrived here.

One was the former Sect Master of the Daluo Sect, True Person Qingxu.

One was the current Sect Master of the Daluo Sect, Long Hu.

The two stood before the forbidden area of the back mountain.

Long Hu took out the Daluo Token from his bosom, drove this True One magic tool, and thereby opened the restrictions ahead.

Previously, Xiang Yunshu had stayed in the Daluo Sect for three days before leaving; during these three days, he not only had to witness with his own eyes Long Hu completely taking charge of the Daluo Sect, but also had to make a move to help the other party master the Daluo Token, thereby mastering the Daluo Sect's mountain-sealing array and all restrictions.

Although Long Hu was a martial artist, not a sorcerer, and did not understand techniques, all paths of the Great Dao led to the same destination.

Reaching the peak realm, certain aspects were actually connected.

For example, a True Person had to refine a magic tool into a magic treasure, thereby condensing the rules of the Great Dao.

And a Martial Saint also mastered his own 'rules of the Dao'.

With the help of Xiang Yunshu, this True Person, Long Hu could also master the Daluo Token.

But this required a process, so Xiang Yunshu stayed in the Daluo Sect for a full three days.

But in reality, until Xiang Yunshu left with people, the 'transfer' of the Daluo Token had not been completed.

There was still the final part of the restrictions—the restrictions of the back mountain of Daluo Peak.

In the forbidden area of the back mountain, there was a thunder pool and fortune golden lotuses; this secret was only passed down to the Sect Master, so Long Hu only vaguely knew that there were very important things in the forbidden area, but did not know what they specifically were.

The reason he did not let Xiang Yunshu help him also 'transfer' this part of the restrictions to himself was because he did not want Xiang Yunshu to know the secrets inside.

In the process of helping 'transfer' the Daluo Token, Xiang Yunshu had already fully understood the Daluo Sect's mountain-sealing array and the restrictions in various places.

To a certain extent, the Daluo Sect was like a peerless beauty who had already taken off most of her clothes in front of Xiang Yunshu.

This was also one of the conditions for cooperation between the two sides.

But Long Hu being willing to cooperate with the imperial court did not mean he was willing to take off the Daluo Sect's last 'underpants' for the other party to see.

So he concealed this part from Xiang Yunshu and let the other party leave early.

In the situation where he had already mastered most of the 'permissions' of the Daluo Token, even if there was no help from Xiang Yunshu later, he could slowly master the restrictions of the back mountain forbidden area by himself.

Now, another three days had passed.

Long Hu completed the complete mastery of the Daluo Token and arrived at the back mountain forbidden area of Daluo Peak for the first time.

True Person Qingxu also followed along.

As the former Sect Master, he naturally had the obligation to completely hand over the secrets in this back mountain forbidden area to Long Hu.

As the restrictions were unlocked, the two walked in together.

Climbing dozens of stone steps, ahead was a flat ground, and at the end was a cave dwelling with a closed door.

Long Hu and True Person Qingxu walked together to the front of that cave dwelling.

The Daluo Token in Long Hu's hand flashed with light, and the door of the cave dwelling slowly lifted upward.

In this process, streaks of invisible power were like unlocked locks, constantly disintegrating and separating.

The restrictions here were the strongest in the entire Daluo Sect, and their power could even harm Long Hu, who was a Martial Saint!

Long Hu glanced at True Person Qingxu beside him, and with a curious and expectant mood, walked into this cave dwelling.

Passing through a passage, Long Hu soon arrived at the end of the cave dwelling:

What came into view was a purple pool of water, in which lightning constantly emerged, emitting a terrifying aura of destruction!

The surrounding walls were covered with various runes, which were constantly flickering with light, like stars in the starry sky.

What attracted Long Hu's gaze the most were the six golden lotus flowers in the center of the pool.

Compared to the pool of water full of destructive aura, these golden lotuses were full of vitality.

Destruction and vitality were perfectly integrated here; if a sorcerer who practiced the 'Nine Heavens Cave-Abyss Thunder Technique' came here to take a look, their understanding of thunder techniques would increase by a notch.

In the pool of water, four of them were blooming very brilliantly, and Long Hu could sense the power of the rules of the Dao from them!

The remaining two golden lotuses had completely withered, appearing very abrupt.

"This is?"

Long Hu turned to look at True Person Qingxu.

"This is the fortune golden lotus, a divine object nurtured by my Daluo Sect for more than eight hundred years!"

True Person Qingxu said in an admiring tone.

"Fortune golden lotus."

Long Hu had already mastered the Daluo Token, so after hearing this name, he naturally felt a response, and many pieces of information appeared in his mind.

"Back then, my Daluo founding ancestor created this thunder pool and connected the fortune of the entire sect to it, thereby planting this fortune golden lotus."

True Person Qingxu explained, "It is closely related to the fate of my Daluo Sect, prospering and suffering together."

Long Hu 'digested' the information in his brain and could not help but sigh:

"Truly seizing the creation of heaven and earth!"

Using artificial means to influence the fate of the entire sect, thereby influencing the Daoist school, and even influencing the entire world.

Such means were simply too incredible!

"What is going on with these two golden lotuses?"

Long Hu pointed at the two withered golden lotuses in the thunder pool and asked with a frown.

True Person Qingxu smiled faintly: "Why does Uncle-Master have to ask when he already knows?"

Long Hu was furious, pointed at True Person Qingxu's nose and cursed:

"This is the result of your acting arbitrarily! When Xiang Yunshu told me at the beginning, I did not dare to believe it; now can you say it? What exactly did you steal the dragon Qi for? Could it really be for some immortality?"

He had already learned from Xiang Yunshu that True Person Qingxu had stolen the Son of Heaven's dragon Qi, and precisely because of this, he made up his mind to cooperate with the imperial court and must make True Person Qingxu hand over the Sect Master position.

He could not watch True Person Qingxu destroy the Daluo Sect!

"Why, is immortality so unworthy of mention in Uncle-Master's eyes?"

True Person Qingxu asked back.

The 'script' he arranged was that True Person Qingding chose to deceive the Emperor in order to refine the elixir of immortality, and did a series of wrong things.

This was his explanation to the imperial court, and also his explanation to the imperial court.

Stealing the Son of Heaven's dragon Qi was precisely to refine the elixir of immortality.

"Immortality?"

Long Hu glared at True Person Qingxu, "Even the Dao Ancestor could not achieve immortality; what makes you think you can?!"

"If one knows it cannot be done and yet does not do it, then what Dao are we practicing? What truth are we seeking?"

True Person Qingxu sneered.

Cultivation was inherently going against heaven, and it was breaking various restrictions!

Long Hu looked at Qingxu with eyes full of disappointment:

"So you stole the Son of Heaven's dragon Qi, killed Qingding, and even did not hesitate to let the Daluo Sect seal the mountain for ten years, all to seek immortality for yourself?"

He shook his head: "If I had not stopped you, the few fortune golden lotuses that my Daluo Sect spent more than eight hundred years of effort to nurture would probably all wither!"

"No."

True Person Qingxu looked at Long Hu and said very seriously:

"Uncle-Master, you are wrong; I, Qingxu, am not yet so reckless as to disregard the foundation of the Daluo Sect for the sake of one person's gain or loss. I did all this not only for myself, but also for the Daluo Sect, and even more for the entire Daoist school!"

"Fart!"

Long Hu was so angry that he no longer cared about his demeanor; he pointed at the thunder pool:

"These two withered fortune golden lotuses are the judgment on you! You actually have the face to say that you are for the Daluo Sect? I will only say one thing: no matter what it is you want to do, what gives you the right to take the fate of the entire Daluo Sect to take risks with you?!"

"Are you even worthy of being the Daluo Sect Master?!!"

Long Hu's roar was like thunder, resounding in the cave dwelling.

The thunder pool on the side actually boiled because of his furious momentum!

True Person Qingxu was not angry because of Long Hu's accusation, but instead laughed:

"Uncle-Master, I told you before that for people like you and me, discussing right and wrong has no meaning, because we have never doubted ourselves."

"If you ask me why I want to take the fate of the Daluo Sect to take risks with me? I can only answer Uncle-Master—if not me, then who?!"

As his voice fell, the thunder pool, which had already begun to boil due to the influence of Long Hu's fist intent, boiled even more intensely.

Long Hu immediately realized that something was wrong, and without hesitation, threw a punch at True Person Qingxu!

At the same time, he drove the Daluo Token in his hand, intending to control the restrictions in this cave dwelling to suppress the other party.

The fist carrying the terrifying power of a Martial Saint encountered streaks of thunder.

Long Hu and True Person Qingxu were separated by less than two meters, but following Long Hu's sudden punch, it was as if an entire world separated him and True Person Qingxu!

This world was full of world-ending thunder, hindering Long Hu's fist.

On the other side, although Long Hu had completely mastered the Daluo Token, he was ultimately a martial artist, and had only just mastered the Daluo Token not long ago, so his control over the restrictions was still a beat slow.

True Person Qingxu waved one hand, and the remaining four fortune golden lotuses in the thunder pool actually detached from the thunder pool, turning into four brilliant golden rainbows, and flew into his hand.

Eight hundred years of fortune, all in his palm!

"Qingxu, what are you doing?!"

Long Hu's roar was like thunder.

His fist had already torn the thunder world ahead and struck True Person Qingxu's body.

But a brilliant golden light blocked this punch, and even sent Long Hu staggering back heavily!

True Person Qingxu's left palm seemed to be holding a golden sun; he raised his left hand, his Daoist robe fluttering, like an immortal descending to earth:

"I will let you see what is correct!"

On the special train, Li Fei was still in the dream.

True Person Qingxu in the dream subdued True Person Qingding and explained his thoughts to the other party.

He finally said:

"Junior Brother, after I succeed, I will make the truth public and let the world know of your contribution. As for my merits and demerits, I will also leave them to the world to judge. You can go in peace."

After speaking, streaks of purple thunder erupted from all over True Person Qingding's body, vaporizing his entire person, not even leaving a speck of dust!

After doing all this, True Person Qingxu casually summoned a wooden box from the wooden shelf on the side.

Then he took twelve elixirs from the elixir furnace.

These twelve elixirs were the Longevity Elixirs just refined this year, which had not been tampered with, and were normal elixirs.

Li Fei, who was 'watching from the sidelines', kept his gaze on that huge elixir furnace.

"So that's how it is."

He finally knew why the aura left behind by True Person Qingding appeared in his Dream-Command Token.
