If you take the small path in a hurry, you will hardly escape the disaster.

A jade ruyi was thrown out, forming a rainbow in the sky, crossing dozens or hundreds of pieces of void, and knocking Yang Zhongqi down head-on.

With a splash, like mud splashing, a corpse with a broken head fell into the Xilong River and fed to the monsters at the bottom of the water.

"You are just a mere Qi Refining Realm, and you dare to threaten others."

Luzhu exhaled, turned around and came to his side, the murderous aura on her body had dissipated.

I don’t know what kind of mystery is hidden in the Linglong Niangniang Festival that makes a beautiful lantern parade full of murder and blood.

"Why get angry?"

It was the first time that Chen Sheng saw Lu Zhu take action. She was really ruthless and decisive, but not as gentle as she usually was in the Longxing Palace.

Sure enough, those who can build a foundation in the outer sect will not have any flaws in their temperament.

"It's all right."

Luzhu smiled. She didn't have much resentment in her heart to begin with. After killing the annoying person, she naturally recovered her mood.

Whoosh! On the Xilong River, the light flashed again, and another fish symbol on the lantern turned golden.

Very close to Mr. Chen.

After the couple had been killing each other for a while, the place had become very quiet and no one came to provoke them.

This golden fish talisman naturally fell into the hands of the two men.

After a while.

The mystery on the Xilong River suddenly dissipated, and no more fish symbols emerged.

On both sides of the river, many monks were unwilling to give in and waited for a while, but it was all in vain.

Afterwards, those monks who had obtained the golden fish talisman were either coerced or bribed, or fought their way out of the siege and disappeared.

The owner changed several times and the night passed.

As the Linglong Niangniang Festival passed, the excitement in the city dissipated, but it did not really mean that the matter was over.

Red Line Building.

The shopkeeper hurried upstairs and came to Room No. 2, Tianzi, and said, "Dear guest, here is an invitation for you."

He knew that something big must have happened. The servants who saw him off were all cultivators at the fifth level of Qi Refining, which made him terrified.

"Are you still referring to the fish talisman?"

Mr. Chen opened the door and asked directly without taking the invitation.

Ever since I got the two fish tokens last night, temptations and intimidation have come one after another, so noisy and never stopping for a moment.

He would read the content at first, but as the number grew, he simply ignored it and stopped reading.

"That's exactly what the person who sent the invitation said."

The shopkeeper nodded. The matter of the fish talisman was just a vague rumor in the city of Sijiu. Unexpectedly, the dream came true and caused a lot of waves.

“Just leave it idle.”

Mr. Chen waved his hand and didn't care.

"My dear guest, if things continue to accumulate like this, I'm afraid it won't be a solution. It will explode."

The shopkeeper knew he was talking too much, but he couldn't help but say something.

The invitations piled up in front of his counter had become very high and thick.

Perhaps each of these people poses no threat individually, but when their numbers increase, they represent a certain trend.

"Shopkeeper, that's thoughtful."

Mr. Chen exclaimed in admiration, but still looked indifferent.

"Well, I'll quit then."

The shopkeeper sighed and went back with the invitation, feeling somewhat anxious.

In his eyes, the guest of Room No. 2 was gentle, polite, and a modest gentleman who should not be involved in such trouble.

He has no ability, otherwise he would have swept away all the evil spirits outside the door.

"What secrets are hidden in these two fish symbols?"

Mr. Chen returned to the room, took out the two golden fish symbols, examined them carefully, and came to a conclusion about the characteristics of the material, but could not see anything else.

"Key? Opportunity? Skill?"

Luzhu had some guesses that the fish talisman came from Linglong Niangniang Temple and must be closely related to that person.

"Tonight is not peaceful."

When opportunities come, few people can seize them.

Mr. Chen felt that outside the Red Line Building, there were dense eyes staring at the two of them with murderous intent.

"The two of us have established our foundation in this four-sided city. Even if we don't kill people indiscriminately, it is enough to suppress one side."

Regarding safety, Lu Zhu did not have any hidden worries, and said: "If it is worse, let the people from the sect come to help."

It would be a huge joke if the disciples of the Immortal Sect had to worry about being killed while walking in the border areas.

They have always been superior to others.

"If that happens, all the independent cultivators and forces in the Forty-Nine City will have to be purged."

If it really comes to that, Chen Sheng will not be able to guarantee the safety of Sijiu City. The two foundation-building monks from the Immortal Sect have already attracted attention.

What's more, the identities and backgrounds of both of them are not ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If something really happens, it will be earth-shattering.

"It's better to make some arrangements."

After thinking about it, Mr. Chen decided that it would be better to be safe.

Since we know that the enemy is coming, we cannot be too polite to him.

He took out the formation plate and protected the room, so that even if the fighting turned violent, the outside world would know nothing about it.

Afterwards, he took out four killing swords and hung them in four directions. As long as he thought about it, they would burst out with terrifying power.

On the top of the beam, he placed a brass bell. When it fell quietly, it could stir people's hearts and also suppress the blood in the body.

He also had a handful of talismans in his arms. Any enemy of the same level who rashly broke in would soon die in despair.

As Chen Sheng knew, the murderous intent outside the Red Line Building was very fierce. On the roofs of various houses, there were cultivators hiding. Like night owls, they came from all directions, not letting go of any void and stared intently.

The two fish symbols, as long as they are made, will be a great opportunity and cannot be given up.

The wolves looked around and saw that it was Chen Sheng and his companion. They had a record of killing cultivators at the twelfth level of Qi Refining Realm, so they restrained themselves from making any moves.

"Someone moved."

This is the moment when a strong man finally emerges.

He was an old Taoist priest with high cheekbones and fierce eyes, giving people a very defiant feeling.

He glanced around, snorted coldly, strode forward, and walked into the Red Line Building.

"It's Taoist Mu Shen."

In an instant, the old Taoist's background was revealed. He turned out to be a ruthless character who had once fought a tie with a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage.

He is ferocious in fighting and sharp in sword skills, and is an invincible figure in the Qi Refining Realm.

"We don't stand a chance."

This person's appearance made many immortal cultivators hiding in secret feel disappointed.

Such a person is too vicious. He can suppress everyone so that they dare not speak out. The two people in the Red Line Building are in danger.

"What if he fails?"

Some people were not convinced and still had a glimmer of fantasy, and were still obsessed with the two fish symbols.

"Then do you dare to argue with a strong man who can kill a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm?"

These words drew many people's sneers. Such an outcome would be even more terrifying, as it meant that the two people in the Red Line Building had extremely powerful magic powers, and only cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage were qualified to challenge them.

Even though there are a lot of cultivators in Sijiu City, those who are at the Foundation Establishment stage are still rare.

"Duk!"

"Who?"

Mr. Chen said without any surprise.

"Someone who saved your life."

A slightly cold and hard voice came out.

"Go back."

Chen Sheng really didn't want to kill anyone. A cultivator who had reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Realm and was infinitely close to the Foundation Establishment Realm was really no match for him. Even if he came, he would die.

“Squeak…”

The door opened.

Chen Sheng saw an unruly old man who walked in stubbornly. He said, "You shouldn't have come in."

Those who don't listen to advice will lose their lives.

"Is the fish symbol here?"

Taoist Mu Shen felt that he was in a good condition. He looked around but didn't find anything. Finally, his eyes fell on Chen Sheng.

"Yes, there are two."

Chen Sheng took out two fish talismans and said under Taoist Mu Shen's enthusiastic gaze, "Can you tell me what kind of opportunity is contained in them?"

Until now, he still didn't know the origin of the fish symbol and the hidden opportunities, and he really needed someone to solve the mystery.

"How ridiculous! I have been waiting for many years but nothing happened. You just came to the Forty-Nine City and you got what you wanted."

Hearing this, Taoist Mu Shen sighed, feeling that he had bad luck. He looked at Chen Sheng again, his eyes showing a hint of pity and ferocity, and said, "Well, I'll explain it clearly so that you can understand the danger of this thing."

The story of the fish talisman must start with its owner, that is Empress Linglong.

Empress Linglong is a person who appeared eight hundred years ago. It is rumored that she is not a human, but an alien who has achieved enlightenment.

She didn't know what opportunity she had, but she ended up in the city of Sijiu, using the Xilong River as her foundation and practicing incense to become a deity.

During that period of time, this place once became the kingdom of God on earth.

Later, Empress Linglong failed. Before her death, she refined the divine realm into a secret world, leaving behind the fundamental secret for the right person.

The golden fish talisman is the guide to the secret world of Xilong River.

"Becoming a god through incense? That was a method of achieving enlightenment in ancient times. It's not surprising that it failed."

Lu Zhu was surprised. The era when incense was used to worship gods and prove one's teachings was long gone. Now it was not recognized by heaven and earth. She didn't know why that omnipotent person would go against heaven.

"The fish symbol is the admission ticket."

Chen Sheng finally figured out that the golden fish talisman was a trigger that could lead him into a mysterious world and seize the opportunity left by Empress Linglong.

"Such a mysterious existence, the things she left behind cannot be touched by Qi Refining Realm cultivators. Only masters of the Foundation Establishment Realm are qualified to share a piece of the spoils."

Taoist Mu Shen finished speaking in one breath, feeling that he had done the utmost to be kind and righteous. If Chen Sheng and the other man did not cooperate, he would enforce justice on the behalf of heaven.

"I am a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Chen Sheng had a strange look on his face as he looked at Taoist Mu Shen, with some pity but still ruthlessness, and released the aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Taoist Mu Shen's eyes focused, and the Qi of the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm burst out. Then, with the help of the power of the gem, he was able to reach a level where he could compete with the cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This is his trump card. After refining Qi for a hundred years and undergoing many refinements, he has acquired extremely pure magic power. With the help of magic weapons, he can fight to build his foundation.

"I am able to fight to establish my foundation, so I am qualified to get a fish talisman."

He argued with reason, without his previous aggressiveness, and began to speak reasonably.

The reason why he can fight against cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage is because of him.

"boom"

In the room, another aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm appeared. Luzhu's face showed a cold look. She was an ignorant casual cultivator. After gaining some skills, she thought she could travel around the world.

"Seal off the Qi and don't let anyone know the truth."

Now that his identity has been exposed, Mr. Chen is going to kill someone.

Immediately, the environment of Room No. 2 in Tianzi changed drastically. The silent formation revived, and runes spread out, completely blocking the place.

Strands of terrifying energy filled the void. For safety's sake, Mr. Chen made full arrangements.

"I shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess."

When Chen Sheng revealed the aura of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Taoist Mu Shen was still able to remain tough, but after Lu Zhu revealed her cards, he was already cursing in his heart.

It's an unlucky year and you're full of bad luck.

Being able to fight against a Foundation Establishment cultivator was already an extremely amazing achievement, but he actually encountered two Foundation Establishment cultivators at once, which was a deadly trap.

"boom"

He straightened his body, and his peak fighting power burst out. With the orb in his hand, he smashed it down as if he was grabbing a mountain.

Only by breaking the formation here will he have a chance to survive. Otherwise, he will be trapped in layers and have no chance of survival.

"Bang"

Luzhu dragged her hand, and the surging magic power rolled on the ground like a tide. The orb fell down, and the power in it was absorbed, failing to destroy the Red Line Building.

"Set up the formation!"

Chen Sheng remained calm, his body towering and motionless, with his hands forming hand seals. The killing swords hanging in all directions made clanging sounds, and a grey murderous aura flowed in the void.

"puff"

Taoist Mu Shen was trapped in the middle of it when he was suddenly hit by a sword on the shoulder. Blood splattered everywhere.

Before he could catch his breath, two more killing swords attacked. He pushed out with both palms horizontally, and his magic power rolled like pushing a bead, with a smooth feeling.

"puff"

As the two swords fell, his two palms were nearly cut off, but he used his arms to absorb part of the sword force, thus ending the fight.

"You two Foundation Establishment cultivators are too cruel to deal with me, a half-step Foundation Establishment cultivator."

In an instant, Taoist Mu Shen was covered in blood, his breath was weak, his hair was disheveled, and he no longer had the unruly look he had before.

He wanted to cry. Which great god had he offended? He was fighting against two cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage when he was at the peak of Qi Refining. He deserved to be beheaded.

"A lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit."

Mr. Chen showed no mercy and killed everyone.

"roar"

Taoist Mu Shen let out a mournful cry, and under the force of a mournful soldier, his aura continued to break through, and even a trace of the Qi that led to the foundation building could be seen.

He held the orb on his head to protect his body, and the magic power in his dantian rolled out and shook the formation.

What to do.

If the formation is not broken, he will forcefully fight against the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Finally, an alchemy furnace came down on his head. It shook violently, and raging flames surged inside, instantly reducing Taoist Mu Shen to ashes.

Outside the Red Line Building, the cultivators, who were unaware of the situation, had been waiting.

The moon was at its zenith and was slanting so low that even the night owls could not stand it and hid themselves away and fell asleep.

"Leave."

Most of the cultivators felt heavier in their hearts the longer they waited. Taoist Mu Shen, who was able to fight and build a foundation, went to Room No. 2 of Tianzi and there was no movement.

There is great danger hidden in this, and in 19 or 18 cases, the chances are death.

They knew their own limitations and did not dare to covet anything. They hid in the dark and slowly retreated, just as they came.

Wait a little longer.

It's almost dawn.

"Evil star, you are teasing me here."

The few remaining strong men did not dare to rush in, gave up all thoughts, and hid in the remaining night.
