"Looking for death!" Wang Chongjia shouted angrily, leaped up and faced Jing Hui head-on.
Her cultivation level is even higher than Xi Yunting's. The reason she can't deal with Xi Yunting is because she is restrained.
The cloud sleeves spread out and turned into mist, surrounding Jinghui.
Jing Hui was not afraid of such ghostly tricks. He was more powerful than ever before when he used forbidden techniques.
Wang Chongjia hid in the mist and attacked Jing Hui several times. Jing Hui did not dodge at all and fought with Wang Chongjia the moment she appeared.
He had a high defense to begin with, and now his skin was even tougher and thicker. Not only could Wang Zhongjia's attacks on him hardly cause any serious damage, but he was also severely counterattacked by Jing Hui.
After fighting for about a quarter of an hour, Wang Zhongjia began to complain in his heart. Why are all the people he met today his nemesis? He can't beat Xi Yunting, and he can't beat Jing Hui. He is so tired!
She put away her sleeves angrily and retreated once again.
Jing Hui was still not satisfied, "Why don't you fight anymore?"
Wang Zhongjia was defeated but not defeated, he sneered: "I am busy now, I will deal with you another day!"
If they rush upwards, Xi Yunting will be unable to stop them, and they cannot resist him either, so they might as well retreat in order to advance.
Having made up his mind, Wang Chongjia called out to Wang Chonglang, and the two of them retreated along the mountain path.
"You run pretty fast." Jing Hui said regretfully. The time limit for the forbidden move was up and his body slowly returned to its original size.
After a moment, Jing Hui's face turned pale and she slowly fell to the ground dejectedly.
Deyuan saw that the situation was not good and hurried over to support Jinghui.
"Brother Jing!" Chen Xiao approached worriedly. Deyuan had a bitter face and was about to say something when he was interrupted by Jing Hui: "I'm fine, I just lost my strength temporarily and can't fight anymore."
Things have come to this. Telling Chen Xiao would only make them more worried and would be useless. It would be better to say nothing.
Knowing what he meant, Deyuan had no choice but to shut up and sigh inwardly.
Chen Xiao didn't know the inside story, but he could see that Jing Hui was really weak at this time.
He told Deyuan: "Take good care of your uncle."
Deyuan nodded, called another disciple, and escorted Jinghui down the mountain together.
When they reached the welcoming hall halfway up the mountain, they understood why the Wang siblings had so readily given way.
The Taoist practitioners who had been hiding in the Reception Hall were now driven out. Many evil practitioners surrounded them and took them hostage.
Li Muye and Tong Nuonuo were among this group of people.
Li Muye originally had a chance to escape, but Tong Nuonuo now lost Xiao Xun as a guide. Li Muye really didn't have the confidence to guarantee that Tong Nuonuo could keep up with him and not get lost.
Seeing Xi Yunting and the others coming down, Li Muye secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he quietly held Tong Nuonuo's hand tightly.
Tong Nuonuo shook his hand back to show that she understood what he meant.
Jing Hui was so weak that she needed someone to support her when she walked. She was too weak to even get angry. “You evil cultivators are so despicable and shameless…”
Wang Chongjia smiled slightly, not feeling ashamed at all, and instead said: "You can also ignore it and see what people in the world say. Will they accuse us of being shameless or scold you for being unrighteous?"
Jing Hui's chest was heaving with anger, and De Yuan hurriedly tried to persuade her. All the disciples looked down upon the evil cultivators. It was obvious that they would be the ones to be cursed in the end. The evil cultivators grasped this point, and were fearless, not afraid that the Taoist cultivators would not yield.
Wang Chonglang was feeling very proud at this moment, and he was so happy that he pointed at Chen Xiao and said, "As long as you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, I will forgive you for what happened."
This is the kind of person who gets carried away by success. How could Xi Yunting tolerate someone insulting Chen Xiao in front of him? A dark light emerged from the depths of his eyes, and he left an afterimage on the spot, and he had already rushed to the front of the evil cultivator.
Wang Chonglang panicked, "Aren't you afraid..." They will attack the hostages?
Before he could finish his words, the tip of Xi Yunting's sword had already pierced his eyeball to within an inch.
His sword is so fast!
Wang Chonglang was shocked and hastily stabbed with his hand. The tip of Xue Feng's sword cut a long gash from his eyelid to the tip of his eyebrow, and blood immediately dyed half of his face red.
Wang Chonglang gasped and leaned back in embarrassment. Wang Chongjia hurriedly swung out his cloud sleeves and saved his life.
Xi Yunting's face was frosty, and he swung his sword at Wang Chongjia, forcing her to turn around and save herself. At the same time, he twisted his waist and raised his leg, kicking Wang Chonglang hard, forcing him to be unable to stand up. He had no choice but to roll over and avoid Xi Yunting's heavy kick in a very ugly way.
Xi Yunting was fighting two enemies at once, and the evil cultivators were stunned and at a loss, not knowing whether to continue guarding the hostages or rush forward.
Zhao Fang pinched his fingers together and sneered, "Instead of being controlled by others, it is better to fight to the death. We Taoists still have this ambition. Fellow Taoists, let's kill the enemy together!"
After covering up his uncle's actions, Zhao Fang signaled to Chang Shou, who shouted in a low voice, "Disciples of the Chongxuan Sect, listen to my orders, follow me!"
Jinghui glanced at Deyuan, who turned his head and said, "Disciples of the Jin Chan Sect, work with fellow Taoists from Chongxuan to rescue the imprisoned fellow Taoists!"
Dozens of people rushed out again. Jing Hui covered his chest and slowly turned around. There were still a few people standing behind him without moving. Seeing him staring at them unhappily, they dodged his gaze for a moment, then stiffened their necks and said, "It's not that we are afraid of death. We are responsible for plundering the formation, plundering the formation!"
Jing Hui snorted disdainfully. These were the people from the Fire Lotus Temple who Zhang Jide could not count on as allies. Fortunately, they still had the backbone of the righteous path and did not bow to the evil cultivators. They stood on the right side at the critical moment.
At this moment, they were secretly harboring selfish motives and wanted to protect themselves. Jinghui was too exhausted to waste her breath to motivate them.
After taking a breath, he said, "In that case, you should guard against the pursuers from behind."
He raised his chin and motioned for them to turn around and face the back.
The people from Huolian Temple had frozen expressions, forgetting that the pursuers behind them were equally difficult to deal with, so they might as well join the battle in front of them.
They wanted to change their minds, but when they saw Jing Hui glancing at them, the people from Huolian Temple became furious.
"Let's take precautions." Muttering to themselves, they took up their battle formations and looked at the mountain path above with full readiness.
On the other side of the falling rocks, Wang Zhongdai’s men searched the mountain thoroughly, dug out all the Taoists who were hiding, and drove them to a viewing pavilion.
Bai Jiguang was so angry that he put his mind back on business. "Master, if we don't chase them, Xi Yunting and Chen Xiao will probably run away! We can let anyone go, except Chen Xiao. He has Chongshan's notes in his hand. Don't let him get away."
Wang Zhongdai said slowly, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. No one can escape."
Zhao Fang, Chang Shou and De Yuan developed a tacit understanding during the long battle, and with the cooperation of others, they soon gained the upper hand.
Chen Xiao and Tang Ru took the opportunity to rush to the rear and rescued the trapped Taoist practitioners.
The restrictions set by the evil cultivator were not difficult. After removing them, Chen Xiao asked them to run down the mountain.
These people all belonged to independent cultivators or small sects. They knew that if they stayed they would only be a hindrance, so after expressing their gratitude for saving their lives, they hurriedly ran towards the gate of the Immortal Palace.
After a while, the few who had just escaped came back and said in panic, "Oh no! There are so many evil cultivators outside the Immortal Palace! There must be more than a thousand of them!"
Chen Xiao asked in surprise: "What kind of cultivation is that? Can you tell?"
The man panted and said, "Your cultivation is not inferior to mine."
This person is a Jindan, and if they are not inferior to him, then all of them are above Jindan?
Chen Xiao frowned and said to Tong Nuonuo and Li Muye who had just been released from their restraints, "You have dealt with Hongfu Pavilion before. Does Hongfu Pavilion have so many evil cultivators above the Jindan stage?"
Tong Nuonuo shook his head with certainty and said, "No! Hongfu Pavilion is a sect that is more business-oriented, with a loose structure and lax rules. Apart from having a wide network of contacts and being very rich, its hard power is not that strong."
"Where did they get so many people?" Tang Ru asked puzzledly.
Li Muye asked, "Could it be the group of evil cultivators on the defense line?"
Chen Xiao said: "It can't be them. If it is them, once they make any unusual moves, the teams guarding the defense line will not sit idly by."
Stationed there are also elite disciples from various sects, including high-ranking figures like Tai Sheng. They stay there to prevent the evil cultivators from taking advantage of the situation.
If it was said that the people from Hongfu Pavilion took advantage of their status as landlords and entered the island in the lake through a shortcut unknown to the Taoists, Chen Xiao would believe it.
But there are not so many people in Hongfu Pavilion, so where did these people come from?
It was as if an invisible hand was grasping his heart, and the pressure made Chen Xiao feel like he couldn't breathe.
"Xiaoxiao!" Tong Nuonuo's shouting woke him up, "Hurry up and think of another way. The gate of the Immortal Palace is blocked. How can we leave here? You know Chongshan best. Is there any other way out?"
Chen Xiao started thinking quickly, and various thoughts flashed through his mind, but were all eliminated one by one.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, "That's right! The central nervous system!"
He grabbed Tong Nuonuo and said hurriedly: "Go find the center of the Immortal Palace quickly! As long as the center is destroyed, the concealment of the Immortal Palace will be revealed, and we will return to reality from the secret realm. As long as the concealment is broken, the siege of the evil cultivators will naturally be lifted!" Now the evil cultivators are blocking the door and not letting them go out, but once they return to reality, there will be ways out in all directions.
Tang Ru said solemnly: "But the upper part is occupied by Wang Zhongdai and his men. We can't go up to find the center."
Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "I have seen the layout of the palaces above. Chongshan does not adopt a traditional design. The center is not on the top of the mountain, nor is it here. It is very likely in the lower half of the mountain!"
Tong Nuonuo nodded repeatedly, "Okay, let's split up and look for the center!" He called Li Muye and Tang Ru, "Let's split up and look for it!"
The three of them went straight into the forest to search for the center, which was nowhere to be found.
On the mountain, Wang Zhongdai frowned and suddenly stood up and left. Bai Jiguang was surprised for a moment, thought about it, and followed him.
Bai Jiguang's cultivation was not high, and he was worried that Wang Zhongdai was walking too fast, but he didn't expect that Wang Zhongdai was not in a hurry and still looked like he was strolling leisurely.
This made Bai Jiguang look at his back with some confusion.
At the foot of the mountain, Xi Yunting's one-on-two battle was nearing its end. Wang Zhongjia was struggling to counter Xi Yunting's sword moves. His good concealment magic weapon was used as a weapon, and he was unable to defend himself.
But she couldn't give up. Wang Chonglang was cut all over by the sword energy. If she hadn't saved him several times, Wang Chonglang would have died under Xi Yunting's sword long ago.
Facing a beautiful woman who was sweating profusely and as pretty as a flower, Xi Yunting turned a blind eye. He was determined to kill Wang Zhonglang.
He was too impatient to continue fighting with the two of them. It was taking too long and Xiaodi would get anxious.
His wrist trembled rapidly and he feinted an attack. Wang Zhongjia was fooled and blocked it with his cloud sleeves once again.
She used the softness of her cloud sleeves to dissolve sword moves every time. This idea of using softness to overcome hardness was indeed correct. However, when Xi Yunting simplified the complex and turned his wrist several times, the sword body was wrapped around the cloud sleeves and trapped tightly with the sword body, that little advantage was immediately gone.
Xi Yunting suddenly urged his true energy, and sword light burst out from the sword. This magic weapon that Wang Zhongjia regarded as a treasure and more important than his life was immediately cut into thousands of silk strips by the sword light.
“No——” Wang Chongjia screamed, and the strength in her hands suddenly disappeared. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backwards.
This magic weapon was not suitable to be used directly as a weapon, not to mention that it had been damaged after several collisions with Xue Feng. This time, her own magic weapon was directly destroyed and she also suffered serious injuries.
Wang Zhonglang's eyes were wide open. After fighting with two people for such a long time, Xi Yunting did not show any sign of fatigue at all. A faint figure was left on his retina. After another shake, he felt a slight pressure on his head.
Wang Chonglang's heart skipped a beat, thinking that he was going to die, and he almost closed his eyes in fear.
But at this moment, Xi Yunting's figure suddenly appeared not far from him. His body leaned forward, and the tip of the sword in his hand was firmly grasped by one hand.
Wang Chonglang escaped death, but his legs instantly went weak and trembling.
He calmed himself down, quickly moved away, and then turned his head to look.
"Brother!" He was so happy that he almost cried. It turned out that it was Wang Zhongdai who suddenly appeared.
Wang Zhongdai ignored him, his fair fingers still pinching the tip of the sword, motionless.
Xi Yunting on the opposite side had a solemn expression on his face, with tiny beads of sweat gradually appearing on his temples.
Wang Chonglang ran away, crawling to the side of Wang Chongjia who had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up: "Third sister, big brother is here! Don't worry, he will avenge us!"
Wang Chongjia coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, slowly opened his eyes, and when he heard that Wang Chongjia was coming, his cheeks turned red with excitement.
“Brother—” She supported Wang Zhonglang’s hand and sat up, looking at this side with resentment: “Brother, avenge me and my sixth brother! Kill them!”
Wang Zhongdai raised his wicked eyebrows and said, "Although it's a bit useless, I can't let them die. In order to make them work for me wholeheartedly, I can only let you die..."
Before he finished speaking, the fingers of Wang Zhongdai holding the tip of the sword suddenly glowed, and a violent and cold true energy flowed along the sword and hit Xi Yunting's body.
Xi Yunting felt a sharp pain in his internal organs as if they were being cut by a knife. His brows trembled slightly, and he endured the pain forcefully. A force surged in his dantian, flowing along his meridians and quickly relieving the pain.
"Huh?" Wang Zhongdai didn't expect Xi Yunting to be able to withstand his attack, and he was slightly distracted.
Xi Yunting took this opportunity to vibrate the sword at high speed, Wang Zhongdai's fingers were shaken away, and Xi Yunting regained control of Xue Feng.
A trace of blood flowed from the lips and dripped onto Xi Yunting's dark collar. Xi Yunting wiped the blood from his lips without changing his expression.
"Interesting." Wang Zhongdai put away his nonchalant look, looked at Xi Yunting with interest and said, "Let me see, how many moves can you take against me?"
The melee stopped after his arrival. Zhao Fang led everyone back to Jing Hui's side. Chen Xiao looked at the two people standing opposite each other anxiously.
Xi Yunting concentrated highly, and in an instant everything around him faded away, revealing a mysterious scene before his eyes, like the aura fluctuations that Xiaodi had described, but even more ethereal and unpredictable.
Everything Xi Yunting understood, this was his field, and it was the first time he saw it so clearly.
As soon as Wang Zhongdai on the opposite side moved his shoulder, Xi Yunting raised his hand and stabbed. In just one move, his body was driven by the sword and he appeared directly at the designated location. The tip of the sword pierced through Wang Zhongdai's robe on his chest.
"!!!" The sword's force was blocked, and Xi Yunting's calm mood was broken. He raised his face in surprise, and what he saw was Wang Zhongdai, who was even more surprised than him.
Wang Zhongdai raised his elbow, with his palm facing inward, and his index finger and thumb firmly grasped the sword!
He shook his head in annoyance and laughed at himself: "Oh, I underestimated the heroes of the world. It was a mistake. You are so amazing in this field. I really can't give you a chance."
Xi Yunting pursed his lips slightly, his eyes became sharper and his aura became more solemn.
The sword in his hand felt a huge force, trying to break free. Wang Zhongdai raised his other hand and swept it towards Xi Yunting's chest.
As if being hit hard by a sledgehammer, Xi Yunting's sternum was instantly shattered and he flew backwards for dozens of meters.
Chen Xiao was prepared, and he quickly flew up and hugged Xi Yunting. The moment he caught him, Chen Xiao was injured by the remaining force, and was shocked to spit out blood, and there was a sharp pain in his chest.
After staggering to the ground, Chen Xiao didn't care about anything else and hurriedly stuffed a life-saving elixir into Xi Yunting's mouth.
A thin layer of blood appeared on Xi Yunting's face, which was slowly replaced by paleness, but fortunately, his life was saved.
Zhao Fang and other disciples of the Zhongxuan School hurried over and stood around the two of them, forming a formation.
Chen Xiao looked through the gap in the crowd at Wang Zhongdai, who was standing with his hands behind his back, in doubt and surprise.
This person is actually so powerful?
Even Taixuan didn't dare to say that he could kill his elder brother with just one move. What kind of cultivation level does Wang Zhongdai have?
This is not only the doubt of the Taoist practitioners, but also the doubt of the Wang siblings.
"When did big brother become so powerful?" Wang Chonglang said in confusion and admiration.
Wang Chongjia held Wang Chonglang's hand tightly, causing Wang Chonglang to scream in pain. She bit her lower lip until it bled, and her voice came out of her throat: "He... is not the eldest brother!"
“What? Not my eldest brother?” Wang Zhonglang finally reacted and let go of Wang Zhongjia. He rushed over and tried to grab the man who looked like Wang Zhongdai, “What did you do to my eldest brother?!”
"Sixth brother!" Wang Chongjia screamed, fearing that this unfathomable man would blame Wang Chonglang for his offense and kill him.
Wang Chonglang failed to touch Wang Chongdai. "Wang Chongdai" waved his hand lightly, and Wang Chonglang was thrown out in a circle and sat on the ground.
"Sixth brother!" Wang Zhongjia struggled to get up and walked to Wang Zhonglang's side. She looked at the man with fear and asked in awe and vigilance: "Who are you? My eldest brother, what happened to him now?"
The man shook his head regretfully, "I didn't expect this identity to be exposed so soon."
Wang Chongjia's heart tightened, and he felt panicked and frightened.
No one knew when this man replaced her eldest brother. Have they been acting completely according to this man's orders during this period of time?
She was confused, and the appearance of "Wang Chongjia" gradually changed. His appearance and facial features were more handsome than Wang Chongdai. He lacked Wang Chongdai's romantic and unrestrained style, and was more evil and cynical. He seemed not to care about anything, and all the living things in front of him were objects of his toy.
The face in front of him was too unfamiliar, and none of the evil cultivators present recognized him.
At this moment, a figure ran up the mountain path. It was Bai Jiguang who was abandoned by "Wang Zhongdai" halfway.
The scene at this time was quite strange. The Taoist practitioners and the evil practitioners stood on both sides, and there was only one person in the open space in the middle.
Bai Jiguang naturally looked at the only focus. His eyes widened suddenly, and he ran over in surprise and fell in front of the other party.
"Master! I didn't expect you to come here in person! I am so excited to see you here!"
Chen Xiao was shocked. In the study upstairs, Bai Jiguang had hinted at the power of the person behind him. He didn't expect that they had already met the mastermind behind the scenes.
Wang Zhongjia suppressed his worries and asked, "Bai Jiguang, who is this?"
Bai Jiguang jumped up and scolded, "How rude! This is the supreme commander of the evil realm, the one and only evil master Fu Wumo! I don't know how lucky you are to be able to see him in person, why don't you hurry up and pay your respects!"
Fu Wumo! It turned out to be the Evil Lord Fu Wumo!
Guangji was the only great man in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, an existence that countless evil cultivators worshipped. All of them bowed down to him immediately.
Even the Wang siblings, whose eldest brother's life was very likely taken away, felt their fears instantly dissipated, and were replaced by a feeling of honor.
Fu Wumo walked to Wang Zhongjia's side, lifted her face, and said, "Your elder brother has already dedicated himself and his life to me. Do you blame me?"
Wang Zhongjia was extremely terrified and said, "This is my big brother's honor, and also the glory of my Wang family!"
Fu Wumo loosened his fingers with satisfaction and said, "From now on, you will continue to manage Hongfu Pavilion and carry out my will. Are you willing?"
Wang Zhongjia bowed excitedly, "I am willing to serve Xie Zun as my master from now on!"
Wang Chonglang was also very aware of the situation at this moment, and immediately stated that he was originally a subordinate of Fu Wumo.
Fu Wumo nodded happily: "I knew that you two siblings are useful people. Unlike Jin Xigong who is so ignorant, you saved me a lot of effort."
While these evil cultivators were performing a show of loyalty, Tong Nuonuo quietly returned.
He, Li Muye and Tang Ru searched everywhere but couldn't find the center. When they came back to report the situation, they found something wrong.
Li Muye and Tang Ru didn't dare to get close. Only Tong Nuonuo, who claimed to have the lowest presence, went around from a place far away from the evil cultivator and approached Chen Xiao.
"Have you searched everywhere?" Chen Xiao was surprised.
"We've searched everywhere from here to the gate, but we haven't found anything that looks like the central control." Tong Nuonuo transmitted a message to Chen Xiao while stealthily glancing at the evil cultivator.
Guangji has three major forces, Hongfu Pavilion, Jinxi Palace, and Wumo Xiezun. Hongfu Pavilion and Jinxi Palace are the most famous, while Wumo Xiezun has always been very low-key and few people have seen him.
I thought Wu Mo Xie Zun would keep a low profile, but I didn't expect him to rise suddenly. The implication of his words was that the Jin Xi Palace might have been destroyed by him.
Now that he has control over Hongfu Pavilion, Guangji Heaven Realm will be his world alone.
Chen Xiao didn't think too much about it. He looked at the person in his arms anxiously. Xi Yunting's breath was very weak. He was seriously injured and had to leave here as soon as possible.
Chen Xiao was so anxious that he couldn't figure out anything, and his heart was filled with worry about Xi Yunting.
Chen Xiao found that as Xi Yunting's vitality weakened, his aura also began to weaken, which made Chen Xiao's heart tremble. This was the first time he had seen such a situation, and Chen Xiao was a little scared.
Xi Yunting's aura weakened and could no longer suppress the local aura, and the aura of the Immortal Palace slowly became active.
Chen Xiao glanced around and unconsciously thought of something. He suddenly turned his head and looked down the mountain.
The aura of the entire fairy palace is very stable and harmonious, and the circulation inside and outside is very normal, too normal.
This felt a bit wrong in Chen Xiao's eyes. After all, this was a secret place, where a part of reality was hidden and isolated into an independent environment.
According to common sense, in the isolated space, the flow of the earth veins should also be blocked, forming a closed environment.
But the flow of aura in front of us shows that the flow of the earth veins here is normal, proving that there is a place connected to the earth veins of the outside world, and the earth veins flow in from there and flow out from there.
The node that can connect the inside and the outside is likely to be the center!
Chen Xiao followed the flow of the earth's energy and saw the end at a glance.
He turned around and stared at Tong Nuonuo, and said hurriedly: "It's the gate! The center is at the gate of the Immortal Palace!"
He had never expected that Chongshan would not do anything weird, but once he started doing something weird, he would do it to the end.
Generally, the center is inside, but he did the opposite and placed the center at the gate!
Tong Nuonuo was also confused by this result. He said blankly: "But we don't know how to control the center!"
There is no time for them to study how to control the center now.
Chen Xiao licked his dry lips and said, "No need to control it, just destroy the center!"
Tong Nuonuo finally reacted, turned around and slipped away, made a circle and hurriedly met up with Li Muye and Tang Ru, and ran towards the gate.
No one could have imagined that Chongshan would place the center at the gate, not even Fu Wumo.
After winning the loyalty of the Wang siblings, Fu Wumo turned around and faced the Taoist. His eyes were as sharp as swords. The disciples standing in front of Chen Xiao could not withstand his aura and pressure and were forced to retreat step by step.
Finally, Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting appeared behind the crowd.
