When Zhongli Tingzhou was swallowed by the light, he thought there was something wrong with the stone tablet.
Until a black hole spit him out and a cold wind blew past.
Only then did he realize that he had been thrown out of the residence of Immortal Lord Donghua, and his handsome face immediately turned dark.
"What do you mean, that shabby mansion actually despised me for moving the stone tablet away?"
"You deliberately placed the stone tablet in the center, don't you want me to move it away?"
The more Zhongli Tingzhou thought about it, the angrier he became. He hadn't even finished touring the mansion yet, and yet they were so impatient to get him out. They must be afraid that he would find other good stuff.
"No, that thing must be a spirit, otherwise how could it suddenly throw me out? It can't be a moving treasure."
"If it's really a movable space treasure, it's much more valuable than a bunch of immortal artifacts."
Zhongli Tingzhou was thinking that he would take Gao Han to find the mansion after meeting him. At the same time, he looked around the environment and found something extraordinary.
A large number of weapons spread out from his body, with no end in sight and the back obscured by fog.
He was teleported to a weapons pile.
Zhongli Tingzhou saw a magic weapon beside him, so he pulled it out without much effort. He saw that it was broken and stuck in the ground, with only a small piece left.
The immortal weapon that was broken into two pieces has lost all its spiritual power and has become a piece of scrap metal.
He threw it out casually, and the scrapped magic weapon hit another magic weapon inserted into the ground, making a clinking sound.
He didn't care whether it would attract others and pulled out another magic weapon. Fortunately, this magic weapon was relatively intact, except for some small gaps on the sword body, there was also spiritual light.
He didn't care much about the half-scrapped magic weapon. After absorbing the spiritual light, he threw it away and continued to pull out magic weapons and absorb the spiritual light.
"It's strange, how come so many of them are broken, without any spiritual light at all? If you want to pay tribute to the owner, you have to go to the grave. They are placed here, obviously just to let people pluck them out."
Zhongli Tingzhou pulled out more than ten magic weapons in succession, but his luck became worse and worse. Almost all the magic weapons he pulled out had no spiritual light. The ones with spiritual light were pitifully few and not even enough for him to fill his teeth.
The discarded immortal weapons would occasionally collide with other immortal weapons, constantly making tinkling sounds, like a symphony.
Once, twice, the jingling sound behind almost never stopped.
The demon cultivators who were originally planning to snatch the magic weapon from Yuan Ran could not help but look at each other.
"This voice sounds so familiar."
"Could it be that... someone pulled out many immortal weapons?"
"That's impossible. There were so many people from those sects who came here before, but they only pulled out a few magical weapons in the end. It's absolutely impossible for someone to pull out so many magical weapons at once."
The demon cultivator Tian Jihu suddenly had an idea, "I know, someone must have used his magic weapon to knock down the immortal weapon on the ground."
"How dare this guy play tricks on us!"
Pei Zhenghai saw them talking to themselves and immediately sent a message to Yuan Ran, "While their attention is not on us, run first."
"Could the person who made the sound be a disciple of Zixiao Sect?" Yuan Ran was a little worried.
Pei Zhenghai had never thought about this. "It's unlikely. If they are really disciples of Zixiao Sect, their speed should be slower than ours. They can't be ahead of us. Those who are ahead of us may have already left with Feng Xinxing and the others."
"Yes, then..."
"Want to run?" As soon as the two spoke, Tian Jihu noticed their movements. The two demon cultivators beside him rushed out quickly and blocked their retreat.
They cooperated very well, and it was obvious that they had done similar things no less than a hundred times.
Tian Jihu was one of the two demon cultivators who had reached the Great Perfection of Out-of-Body Realm. With a wicked smile on his face, he said to the demon cultivator who was at the late stage of Out-of-Body Realm: "Yue Wei, go and see the spiritual cultivator who dared to play tricks on us. If his cultivation level is not high, just kill him directly."
"Okay." Zhao Wei showed a sinister smile, "I'll go right away."
"Where are we going now?"
At this moment, a lazy voice came from the invisible fog.
As they heard each other's footsteps, everyone looked towards the fog.
Zhongli Tingzhou walked out carrying a few unearthed immortal artifacts on his shoulders. There was no aura coming from him. He was dressed in exquisite black clothes, which made his handsome and deep face, which was chiseled by a knife, seem to glow for a moment.
If you ignore the magical weapon on his shoulder, he looks a bit like a fairy descending to earth.
The eyes of the five demon cultivators were instantly glued to the magic weapon on his shoulder, and they could no longer move.
What did they see?
It's actually a magical weapon!
And there were a pile of them, at least seven immortal artifacts.
You know, there were powerful sects who had been walking ahead for more than half an hour, and even if so many people were added together, there were not so many people who could pull out the immortal weapons from the Weapon Tomb.
"Uncle-master!" Yuan Ran showed a shocked expression when he saw Zhongli Tingzhou and exclaimed involuntarily.
"Why are it you two? Where is Gao Han?" Zhongli Tingzhou's sharp gaze moved behind them and found that except for them, there was no one else here. In his eyes, the five demon cultivators were not human.
"Uncle-master, why are you here too? We didn't see Gao Han because we came out too late. My brothers and sisters couldn't wait and left first. Gao Han might be with them." Yuan Ran was overjoyed.
"Impossible, Gao Han can't leave first, he will definitely wait for me."
Zhongli Tingzhou rejected it without thinking, but he was teleported to another place. Gao Han didn't know that he was walking the path of chaos. He didn't know if he was the same as him. After leaving the Taoist sect, he went to a different place than them.
"Well, that may not have come out yet." Yuan Ran didn't dare to deny his words.
"It's unlikely. After all, so much time has passed." Pei Zhenghai didn't know their relationship. To be honest, he was quite surprised. He didn't expect to meet Zhongli Tingzhou here.
Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at him and narrowed his eyes: "What's going on? I just heard someone say they wanted to kill someone?"
"Hand over all the magic weapons on you, otherwise this weapon tomb will be your burial place." Tian Jihu threatened and released the aura of the Great Perfection of Out-of-Body State.
Zhongli Tingzhou threw all the immortal weapons on the ground and said with a smile: "So you want immortal weapons. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll give them to you. There are so many immortal weapons here that you can easily pull out dozens of them."
Tian Jihu's eyes lit up when he heard this. How could he forget that this man was able to pull out seven magic weapons. Didn't that mean he had a connection with this weapons tomb?
How could seven magic weapons be enough? They could force him to take out all the magic weapons. Then, they would be rich!
"Brother Tian, we can do this..." His companions thought the same thing as him, and their eyes looking at Zhongli Tingzhou could no longer conceal the greed and evil in their hearts.
Tian Jihu looked at Zhongli Tingzhou and smiled sinisterly, "I've changed my mind. I don't just want these magic weapons. I also want you to pull out all the other magic weapons for me. Otherwise, none of you three can leave."
"Do you want the immortal weapons in this weapon tomb? There should be more than that." Zhongli Tingzhou asked with a smile.
Tian Jihu was stunned for a moment, then asked excitedly: "Do you have more?"
Of course he wouldn't complain about having too many magical weapons, but why would this person be so kind to say it?
"Brother Tian, be careful of traps." The demon cultivator Liang Rong immediately sent him a message.
"Don't worry, we arrived at the weapons tomb earlier than them, so there can't be an ambush, unless they are confident that they can defeat us, but that's impossible." Tian Jihu had planned everything long ago.
"He was hit by Zuo Jiandong's bloody hand and poisonous scales, and he took the antidote too late. His internal injuries will definitely not heal so quickly. Moreover, he has fought two geniuses with higher cultivation than him. I don't believe that he still has the energy to fight us now."
"Brother Tian is right, and our methods are no less than Zuo Jiandong's."
After hearing what Tian Jihu said, several demon cultivators immediately felt relieved.
As long as these three people are killed, even if the Zixiao Sect finds out that they are dead, they will not know that it was them who did it.
"Apart from these immortal weapons, I only have one fake immortal weapon on me. I don't think you will look down on it. The other things I mentioned..." Zhongli Tingzhou looked around at their faces with a smile, "I mean the lives of the three of us."
Tian Jihu had long regarded them as dead and would not let them go afterwards, but he did not expect that he would say it out loud.
"As long as you help me pull out the magic weapon here, I can let you go, but they can't." In order to reassure him, Tian Jihu deliberately made an empty promise.
Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at Yuan Ran and Pei Zhenghai, who seemed somewhat stunned, and revealed a struggling expression, "They are my fellow apprentices, I can't just abandon them. If Senior Brothers Feng and Jiao from Zixiao Sect knew about this, they would definitely not let me go."
When Tian Jihu saw the look in his eyes, he knew that he had already taken the bait, so he sent a message with temptation: "If you don't tell us, and we don't tell you, who will know?"
"You know, if you tell others, they will still kill me. I won't give up on them." Zhongli Tingzhou sneered with an expression that said 'don't treat me as a fool'.
Tian Jihu understood and said in a voice transmission: "Brother, why risk your life for two unrelated people? Even if we tell them, will Zixiao Sect believe us? They will only think that we want to disrupt your internal unity. Think about it carefully. From what they say, your seniority in Zixiao Sect seems to be quite high. It is not easy for you to have such a good reincarnation in this life."
They didn't speak for a while. Pei Zhenghai could tell at a glance that Tian Jihu was transmitting a message to Zhongli Tingzhou, and the disbelief in his eyes could hardly be hidden.
"Yuan Ran, why am I a little confused? What is going on now?"
Yuan Ran was actually a little confused, "Brother Pei, don't worry, our uncle-master will never abandon us. He may have his own plans."
"I always feel like something is weird." Pei Zhenghai didn't feel that the atmosphere was weird, but that Zhongli Tingzhou gave him a weird feeling.
Before, outside Wanxiandao, when he fought against Chen Binyu and Zuo Jiandong, it was obvious that he was a very decisive person.
This time, if the three of them join forces, they may be able to defeat the five demon cultivators. The five demon cultivators will obviously not let them go, and the possibility of silencing them afterwards is 100%.
Why bother wasting time talking to them? Why not just start a war directly? The result will be the same anyway.
Or was it that he really misjudged this Uncle Zhongli, and was actually such a person?
The more he listened, the more uncertain Pei Zhenghai became.
"Stop talking nonsense. I will never give up my fellow disciples. If you want to touch him, you have to step over me. Even if I die, I will never help you to remove another immortal weapon."
Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly shouted loudly, raised the magic weapon in his hand, and pointed it at Tian Jihu and others.
Tian Jihu stared at him gloomily, and after a moment he suddenly smiled, "My friend, why are you so angry? I promise you, as long as you help me pull out these immortal weapons, I swear in the name of the demon god that I will never do anything to you."
"Really?" Zhongli Tingzhou stared at him closely.
"Of course it's true. I swear on it in the name of the devil." Tian Jihu looked kind.
Zhongli Tingzhou struggled for a moment, "Okay, you keep your word."
"I keep my word." Tian Jihu laughed secretly in his heart. This stupid spiritual practitioner was actually convinced by his words.
I didn't expect that such a scum would appear in the Zixiao Sect, the largest sect in the Lingtian Continent. I really want to see what the Zixiao Sect's reaction would be when they know the truth. It must be very interesting.
"Brother Tian, did your talks break down?" Zhao Wei, who was unaware of the situation, asked immediately.
"Of course not. He has already agreed to help us retrieve all the immortal weapons that can be retrieved from the Weapon Tomb, on the condition that we let him go." Tian Jihu said proudly. This was something he had accomplished.
"What about the other two spiritual practitioners?"
"Of course we will kill them. We will kill two people first. Zhao Wei, you have the best tracking ability, so you just follow him secretly and don't do anything. Wait until we get rid of these two people, and then we will deal with him." Tian Jihu immediately assigned the tasks.
The smile on Zhao Wei's face became more and more sinister, "Brother Tian, you are really evil."
"Thank you." Tian Jihu was not annoyed, but smiled proudly.
"Uncle Master Zhongli, the words of the evil cultivator cannot be trusted at all. Don't be fooled. Tian Jihu never keeps his word. Their oaths cannot be trusted." Pei Zhenghai was afraid that he would lead them into a trap.
Zhongli Tingzhou ignored him and said, "My fellow demon cultivators, what do you think of that immortal weapon? It is quite large and must be quite powerful."
Tian Jihu followed his gaze and looked around them. They were not stupid. In order to prevent Zhongli Tingzhou from deceiving them, the others stared at the three of them vigilantly.
However, there is indeed a rather large immortal weapon next to it, which is probably more than two meters long and looks relatively complete.
Length was not a problem because one of them was very big and strong and preferred to use large weapons.
"Okay, you come and pull it out." Tian Jihu gave up his seat, stared at him and said with a smile.
Zhongli Tingzhou walked over and pulled hard for a while, but the magic weapon was still firmly fixed in the ground. He said in surprise, "Strange, why can't I pull it out? That's not right, I was able to do it easily before. No, I'll try a few more times."
He tried more than a dozen times in succession, but the result was the same, none of them could be pulled out.
After Tian Jihu was surprised, he immediately became angry, "You are playing tricks on us!"
"If I wanted to play a trick on you, would I take out seven magic weapons to play a trick on you?" Zhongli Tingzhou calmly glanced at the seven magic weapons still piled on the ground.
"To be honest, I was able to pull out these seven immortal weapons because it took me a long time to pull them out. I picked a lot and finally got this many."
"You said before that you could easily pull out dozens of magic weapons?" Tian Jihu looked at him in disbelief.
Zhongli Tingzhou chuckled and said, "You are just bragging."
Zhao Wei sent a message to Tian Jihu, "Brother Tian, it actually makes sense. Think about it, how could he really pull out all the immortal weapons from the Weapon Tomb by himself? If he could really pull them out, that would be strange. These seven immortal weapons are enough for us. At least each of us can get one."
"Yes, in order to avoid any further trouble and to avoid being seen by others, we should solve these problems as soon as possible." Liang Rong couldn't help himself any longer. He had never owned a magic weapon in his life.
Tian Jihu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's do it, but let's stick to the original plan and let this guy run first. We can relax a little bit."
After all, he was still a little afraid of Zhongli Tingzhou's ability to defeat Chen Binyu and Zuo Jiandong.
Tian Jihu then sent a message to Zhongli Tingzhou, "Boy, I'll use the seven magical instruments on the ground to buy your life, and you can get out now."
"Are you guys going to attack now? Wait until I run away first." Zhongli Tingzhou's face was a little panicked, but he said calmly to Yuan Ran and Pei Zhenghai, "They are going to attack, be careful."
Pei Zhenghai had been on guard when he heard Zhongli Tingzhou say that he couldn't pull out the magic weapon. He was not surprised at all when he heard this. "Yuanran, pay attention."
Tian Jihu didn't know about Zhongli Tingzhou's voice transmission, so he signaled to his companions with his eyes.
The five of them instantly jumped up and rushed towards Pei Zhenghai and Yuan Ran, attacking them at the same time.
Zhongli Tingzhou was left aside by them. Tian Jihu saw that he had not left yet and showed a malicious smile, "Why don't you leave? I have already agreed to your conditions. I will use these magic weapons in exchange for your worthless life. I will help you deal with your two brothers."
"Impossible." Yuan Ran had no doubt that Tian Jihu was deliberately trying to sow discord between them.
"Then I'm leaving." Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at Yuanran, turned around and left.
"Hahaha!" Tian Jihu laughed excitedly with his head back, and the laughter stopped in a moment.
A long sword pierced his chest, and blood dyed his chest red.
Tian Jihu's eyes moved behind him in disbelief and saw Zhongli Tingzhou's handsome smiling face. He didn't even sense the approach of the person who should have left.
"You are so naive. I don't take opponents like Chen Binyu and Zuo Jiandong seriously, so why would I be afraid of a few bugs like you? How dare you steal my things?"
"Impossible, you clearly..." Tian Jihu couldn't continue and vomited a lot of blood.
"Mingming, what? Don't you know that I love acting the most? My wife says I'm an acting genius, and you don't know that?"
Zhongli Tingzhou let out a soft humming laugh from his nostrils, and his face was full of tenderness when he mentioned the word "lover", which formed a sharp and unforgettable contrast with his behavior in the matter, like the two sides of an angel and a devil.
How could I possibly know.
Tian Jihu didn't have the chance to say this. His soul was about to escape from his body when a huge and powerful sword energy flowed along his meridians into his dantian. His soul let out a scream and was instantly shredded by the sword energy.
Everyone else was stunned. A powerful man who had reached the state of out-of-body perfection was killed without any reaction at all.
Zhao Wei was frightened when he realized something was wrong. He was distracted for a moment and Yuan Ran immediately took the opportunity to cut off one of his arms.
"You're not hurt?" Liang Rong, who was entangled by Pei Zhenghai, was shocked.
"Which eye of yours saw that I was injured?" Zhongli Tingzhou drew out his sword, shook off the blood on the sword, and walked towards the other two demon cultivators.
The two demon cultivators no longer had the will to continue fighting. Even Tian Jihu was dead, and Liang Rong was entangled by Pei Zhenghai. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated. There was no way they could win.
After the two demon cultivators looked at each other secretly, they immediately fled in two directions.
When Liang Rong found out, his eyes suddenly turned red with anger, and he stared at the two men's backs with a look as if he wanted to kill them.
Zhongli Tingzhou swung the sword in his hand towards the back of the man who was running away slower. A black light, like the sharpest blade, instantly attacked the man's back.
After the man discovered it, he turned around, thinking that the opponent's sword could not hit him again. Unexpectedly, the black sword light also turned around with him.
Zhongli Tingzhou glanced in the direction of Yuanran. Zhao Wei with a broken arm was no match for him, so he ignored him and chased after the other fleeing demon cultivator.
Yuan Ran quickly dealt with Zhao Wei, and joined forces with Pei Zhenghai to kill the demon cultivator Liang Rong a moment later.
"Let's go and take a look." Pei Zhenghai said woodenly.
"Okay." Yuan Ran nodded.
The two of them discussed it, and just after they took a few steps, Zhongli Tingzhou returned from the front, with the natal magic weapon in his hand not stained with a drop of blood.
Yuan Ran stepped forward quickly, "Did they escape? It doesn't matter, they probably won't dare to show up again."
"They are all dead." Zhongli Tingzhou took his life magic weapon back to his dantian.
"Oh, they're all dead...ah, they're all dead?" Yuan Ran suddenly reacted. In just this moment, they were all dead.
Pei Zhenghai looked at him with a complicated expression. He had indeed misjudged him. This Uncle Zhongli was extremely powerful, and his personality was also eye-opening to him.
He now has reason to suspect that this Uncle Zhongli was most likely acting when he faced Chen Binyu and Zuo Jiandong before.
No one is sure about his true strength, but one thing is certain: Elder Sun did not lie to them, and he and Gao Han do not need their protection.
"What about these magic weapons?" Yuan Ran didn't think as much as Pei Zhenghai. When he was in the Shuangdong Secret Realm, he knew that the two of them had secrets, so he never thought about why.
"I picked them." Zhongli Tingzhou put the seven magic weapons into the storage space.
"We have wasted too much time. We should go after Senior Brother and the others."
"Wait a moment. There are so many immortal weapons in the Weapon Tomb. It would be a pity to leave them alone." Zhongli Tingzhou walked to an immortal weapon, grasped the hilt and pulled it up.
It's totally different from what he said. He was just bragging about being able to pull out dozens of magical weapons.
Pei Zhenghai opened his mouth and closed it again.
Under normal circumstances, Zhongli Tingzhou, who didn't like trouble, would have probably just left after seeing so many magic weapons. However, in order to prevent Gao Han from worrying about the Yin-Yang Beads in his body, and so that he didn't have to think about finding materials for him every time, he would patiently do the same thing over and over again.
This weapon tomb is very strange. Every immortal weapon seems to be fixed by some force. Unless he activates the Yin-Yang Beads in his body, he cannot pull them out.
He wanted to absorb the spiritual light of these immortal weapons directly, but he couldn't, because there was a protective film on the surface of these immortal weapons, which prevented him from absorbing it. The only way to do this was to leave this land.
In just a moment, Pei Zhenghai saw him pull out dozens of magic weapons, but he was also very strange, because after holding them in his hands for a while, he threw them away again.
In just a moment, Zhongli Tingzhou noticed that one of the cracks in the Yin-Yang Pearl was completely repaired, and the second one was also partially repaired.
If he could clear out the entire weapons tomb, he should be able to repair the entire Yin-Yang Bead, but he was worried that Gao Han was looking for him, so he had to give up reluctantly.
"Let's go, let's go find Gao Han."
"Uncle-master, where are those magic weapons?" Yuan Ran swallowed and looked at the magic weapons that he had thrown all over the ground. It could be seen that there seemed to be something wrong with these magic weapons.
"It's useless now. You can take it if you want it, but you can't use it." Zhongli Tingzhou said indifferently.
Yuan Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If you can't use a magic weapon, then it's not called a magic weapon."
"Do you know how to find Gao Han?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked.
"If Gao Han is with Senior Brother and the others, we can find him." Yuan Ran was not sure whether Gao Han was with Senior Brother and the others.
Zhongli Tingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go find Feng Xinxing."
He wasn't sure if Gao Han was with them, but he didn't know where to look for him.
Find Feng Xinxing and the others. If Gao Han is there, it will save trouble. If not, we can also get other clues.
The three of them then set off together. Fortunately, there were marks of the Zixiao Sect left by Feng Xinxing along the way, so they did not lose their direction.
…
Tombs
Gao Han sat cross-legged on a tombstone, or rather a stone.
He didn't know how long it took him to connect the tombstones into lines before he found this strange stone.
It is the same size as the surrounding tombstones, the only exception is that there is no immortal or monster buried under this stone, but solid soil underneath.
But for some reason, such a piece of stone with nothing engraved on it would be located right in the center of the entire tomb complex.
After Gao Han connected these tombstones into lines, he still could not leave this place, but he found that these tombstones all had a certain regularity.
If he had not learned the Tiandumie Formation from Elder Qian before entering the Wanxian Dao, he might have had to think for a long time before he knew what this pattern was.
Behind any balance, there is an eternal and unchanging theorem governing its operation, just like every established formation.
The reason why formations can function, in addition to ensuring a stable output of spiritual energy, is also due to the unchanging theorem that supports the entire formation.
Gao Han stood up, his sharp eyes piercing through the void of space. He didn't believe that an independent space could be carved out from inside Wanxiandao just to store these tombstones.
Suppose, this group of tombs is a huge formation in operation.
