In the subsequent process, Su Rui basically dodged whenever possible, and as long as he could get the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Key immediately, he would not stay for long. If he was really entangled, he would confront the opponent head-on. Of course, not every Heavenly Dao Spiritual Key in the Sky Palace would stay and wait for Su Rui's arrival. Occasionally, a few would be taken away by the right person first. Whenever he encountered such a situation, Su Rui could only sigh helplessly.
After overcoming all obstacles and challenges along the way, the three people finally reached the 22nd heaven.
In the ruins of the Tianguan Temple in the 22nd heaven, when Su Rui finally found a brick with the words "Tianguan Cifu" engraved on it after going through untold hardships, he happened to run into the Five Ghost Kings.
Ever since he ambushed Putuo Sect in the Storm Sea and was frightened away by Master Xiao Ge, there has been no news of this guy. Su Rui could never have imagined that he would meet him here head-on.
"Zhang Beiyang, let's see where you can run this time!"
The Five Ghost Kings glanced around the area and confirmed that there were no righteous soul masters present. Then they roared angrily, summoned the Bone Heart Locking Hammer, and pounced towards Su Rui.
Su Rui was shocked when he saw him, and his heart beat faster instantly, but when he heard Xiaotu remind him that the formation of Tianguan Temple could still be activated, he felt a little relieved.
However, at this time, Zhang Beiyang on the side was already scared out of his wits, and kept thinking in his mind when he had provoked this person who looked like a giant of the magic world, but after thinking hard for a long time, he still had no clue!
At the same time, Yuan Ning quickly raised his flying sword and stood in front of Su Rui and Zhang Beiyang with a heavy expression.
"Brother Yuan, with our current cultivation levels, even if we join forces, we are definitely no match for this old Yuanshen monster! However, there is a formation here that may be able to withstand his attack. In my opinion, we should flee this place first. After we leave, we can ask Master Xiao Ge to come out and punish this guy!"
Su Rui secretly transmitted this to Yuan Ning. Afterward, Su Rui followed the instructions on the small diagram and stepped onto a stone pillar without hesitation. Instantly, dazzling golden light emerged from the underground of the Tianguan Temple. These rays quickly converged above the ruins to form a massive formation, trapping the swooping Five Ghost Kings.
Although the formation appeared to be barely functioning, it was actually in a precarious state, poised to collapse at any moment. Su Rui knew full well that this formation could not permanently trap a powerful being like the Five Ghost Heavenly Kings. At best, it could only delay them for a while, preventing them from continuing their pursuit.
Under Xiaotu's guidance, Su Rui successfully escaped from the formation. Afterwards, they rushed towards the twenty-third heaven without hesitation.
Along the way, the three of them tried to keep a low profile as much as possible, reducing their presence, while carefully collecting the inspiration from the Heavenly Dao.
However, when they arrived at the 32nd heaven, they encountered obstacles again.
This layer of heaven holds two celestial spiritual energies, one of which has been seized by the leader of the Xuanyin Sect, wielding an endless dark aura. This leader once engaged in a fierce battle with True Man Yu'e within the Liangyi Microdust Formation, but ultimately managed to escape the formation's constraints, becoming one of the luckiest evil cultivator leaders in the Emei decisive battle.
As for the other Heavenly Dao Spirit, it fell into the hands of a team of five demon monks. When Su Rui and his companions flew near this Heavenly Dao Spirit, they were immediately noticed by these demon monks, and a fierce battle ensued between the two sides.
This was Su Rui's first encounter with a monk! The instruments these demonic monks were wielding were truly terrifying, almost all crafted from human tissue. There were drums made from human skin, vajra scepters fashioned from vertebrae, alms bowls fashioned from refined skulls, and even wooden fish shaped like skulls... Even more outrageous, one of the demonic monks wore a robe woven from human hair!
The Buddha light they cast was also very strange. It was neither the normal white nor the common gold, but a strange red. Judging from their appearance, these guys were definitely not good people.
When Su Rui saw them, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: it seemed that he had also practiced a rather strange Buddhist technique! Suddenly, he was filled with a competitive spirit and wanted to see if he could resist the other party's magic.
He immediately went to work, sensing the Buddha's phantom he had conjured. To his surprise, after so many days without seeing it, the Buddha's phantom had become far more condensed and solid. The Dharma wheel behind its head, in particular, had taken on a golden hue, clearly fully solidified. Furthermore, he could faintly hear the sound of a heavenly dragon's Buddhist chant.
Su Rui marveled inwardly. This "Great and Small Sandalwood Sutra for the Salvation of All Beings" was truly unfathomable! He had only casually sown these "seeds" in Tongqu County and at the foot of Mount Qingcheng, yet he hadn't expected it to spread like wildfire, gathering the devout worship of tens of thousands of believers and countless ants. Despite his admiration, Su Rui dared not neglect the approaching blood-red Buddha light. He quickly extended his finger, unleashing a dazzling stream of Great and Small Sandalwood Buddha light, attempting to resist the powerful onslaught.
However, when the two Buddha lights collided, something unexpected happened - they actually canceled each other out! Although the Buddha light shot by Su Rui was not as large as the blood-colored Buddha light on the opposite side, the power it contained seemed to be even greater.
