Du Juetian's expression changed: "Go over there!"
The group flew for another half day before they got close to the red light source and saw the huge towering tree.
Ancestor Gui Yan was most familiar with the Wutong tree. He had come here twelve years ago and had tried to uproot it many times, but to no avail. However, Elder Du Jue Tian was seeing the tree for the first time. He gazed at the enormous canopy in shock and subconsciously took out his Qilin horn.
The moment the Qilin Horn appeared at the bottom of the Cliff of Broken Love, it transformed into a snow-white Qilin and roared as it crashed into the tree.
At the same time, a fiery red phoenix suddenly flew out from the tree! The phoenix cried out loudly, flapped its wings, and clusters of flames ignited its body, and it quickly crashed into the Qilin.
The moment the two collided, the entire ninth level of the Cliff of Broken Love trembled twice. The phantoms of the Qilin and Phoenix vanished simultaneously, and a powerful shockwave swept through the crowd, causing them to step back half a step. Only Elder Du Juetian managed to steady himself.
A light flashed in Du Jue Tianlao's eyes, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Phoenix Wutong!"
This is a paulownia tree, and it is also the paulownia tree that belongs to the Phoenix!
A picture suddenly came to everyone's mind. Just over 20 years ago, in the far north, a dragon swallowed Luo Jianqing into its belly, but Luo Jianqing was able to escape from the dragon's belly, and even became more evil from then on.
First a dragon, then a phoenix. Could it be that... Luo Jianqing is truly a natural-born monster?!
Just as everyone was astonished, a Mahayana cultivator shouted, "Look! Isn't that Xuan Lingzi and that monster?"
Everyone quickly turned to look in the direction the man pointed, only to see a cyan figure and a white figure sitting opposite each other beside the thick trunk of a sycamore tree. They sat calmly beneath the tree, seemingly unaware of the arrival of these powerful beings. They didn't stand up, let alone run away.
When the ancestor of the Bai family saw Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he shouted: "Kill them quickly!" As soon as the words fell, a long spear appeared in the hand of the ancestor of the Bai family.
The Bai family's treasure, the Bailing Spear, gleamed dazzlingly under the red flames of the sycamore tree. The Bai family's ancestor wielded the spear, infusing this perfect immortal weapon with powerful spiritual power. Suddenly, a massive spear shadow emerged and rumbled down upon Luo Jianqing and the others.
However, the gun shadow had just entered the territory of the paulownia tree when it was blocked by a red barrier.
boom!
The huge sycamore tree began to shake violently, and the leaves swayed with a rustling sound. Each leaf seemed to fall from the branch calmly, but when it flew into the air, it suddenly turned into thousands of sharp weapons and attacked Du Jue Tianlao and others.
Everyone quickly used their magic weapons to resist the overwhelming amount of sycamore leaves.
Du Juetian Lao was surrounded by countless leaves. He narrowed his eyes and began to make hand gestures. The white curved horns floated in front of him and slowly turned into a snow-white unicorn.
The Qilin roared angrily at the paulownia tree. With a single stomp of its hooves, it broke through the obstruction of the paulownia leaves and crashed into the red barrier. The white Qilin's form solidified, no longer the shadowy form it had been. When a fiery phoenix flew out from the branches to engage it, it was crushed to pieces by the Qilin's hooves in a single blow.
The Qilin roared and crashed into the red barrier of the paulownia tree, causing the originally immovable barrier to begin to tremble slightly.
Du Jue Tian Lao's demonic power formed thin lines, connecting from his body to the Qilin. At this moment, he and the Qilin seemed to become one. He was the Qilin, and the Qilin was him. A hint of the divine beast's pressure emanated from the Qilin, causing the sycamore tree to tremble even more violently.
The ancestor Gui Yan quickly chopped these troublesome leaves into pieces, and Yin Ji also shook her snake tail and came to the side of the old man Du Jue Tian.
Yin Ji frowned, looking at Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi in confusion. She observed them carefully and whispered, "What are they doing? At this hour, why don't they leave immediately? They don't even stop us."
Du Juetian Lao looked at the big tree with a complicated expression. He controlled the snow-white Qilin to continuously hit the barrier, but his eyes swept across the huge crown of the sycamore tree, and finally stopped at Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi under the tree.
Du Jue Tian Lao lowered his voice, as if talking to himself, and said: "Thousand-leaf phoenix tree, the fire of immortality; Phoenix Nirvana, is reborn..."
At this moment, amidst the swirling leaves, a handsome young man sat leaning against a sycamore tree. He raised his lips, his gaze blazing as he looked at the man before him. The man, in turn, had a calm expression and deep eyes, staring at the young man silently, unable to smile.
Luo Jianqing smiled calmly and said, "The Phoenix Clan's secret method, Nirvana, is the only secret method in the world that bears resemblance to reincarnation. Master, as long as you achieve Nirvana, I can reshape the reincarnation thread for you. Even if you don't want to tell me why you lost this thread, I will definitely find it and allow you to re-enter the reincarnation cycle."
Xuan Lingzi looked at Luo Jianqing for a long time, sighed softly, and said, "Is that why you want to know?"
Luo Jianqing shook his head gently: "I don't want to know, but I know... This must be related to me, so you never told me."
Looking at the young man's smiling face, the cold and elegant white-robed venerable opened his lips slightly, but in the end, he still did not speak.
The two men's left hands were pressed tightly together. Luo Jianqing slowly raised his hand and pressed his right palm on the trunk of the paulownia tree.
Just as he was about to infuse his spiritual power into the tree trunk, he heard Xuan Lingzi whisper, "In this life, having you as my teacher is enough."
Luo Jianqing's body trembled, then he turned his head to look at Xuan Lingzi and smiled slightly: "I can be your disciple and your Taoist partner. I don't ask for lifetimes, just one life, and then there will be no regrets."
Their gazes met in the air, and Luo Jianqing suddenly channeled his spiritual power into the sycamore tree. In an instant, a ball of fire ignited his body. The fire enveloped him, and the intense flames seemed to be able to burn everything. Following the palms of Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi's palms, they burned Xuan Lingzi's body.
The flames ignited Xuan Lingzi's fingertips, his robes, and even his hair. Just as the flames were about to engulf him, Xuan Lingzi's eyes narrowed, and he spoke in a hurried voice, "Jianqing, in your previous life, your master never abandoned you! I took in Li Xiuchen to save you; I taught him to save you. On the Cliff of Broken Love, Li Xiuchen blinded the Xuanling Sword, and your master was unable to save you. If you want to hate, hate your master, but remember this—the 'Nine Lotuses Seizing the Heavens' Record' cannot be trusted completely, and even more so, the Nine Lotus Venerable!"
Luo Jianqing's eyes widened: "Master!"
The next moment, the fire will
