The old palace master was still thinking about Hua Shi until his death. When he saw the tokens that Shushu and the others took out, and saw Hua Shi's image, his dazed and confused soul woke up.
When he woke up, he naturally recognized Lu Xu and Jing Yao, and his resistance lessened considerably.
Especially after learning that Huaiyu had done many bad things over the years by taking advantage of the Nine Star Palace's power, and that she had almost destroyed the Nine Star Palace's foundation of thousands of years, he hated her even more.
Unfortunately, he has now perished, leaving only a wisp of his soul that could dissipate at any moment. Even if he wanted to cleanse the Nine Star Palace of its sins, he was powerless to do so.
Fortunately, his disciple Hua Shi was still alive, which brought some relief to the old palace master.
He did not refuse when Lu Xu offered him the Soul Wood to rest in. He still had many things to give to Hua Shi and could not afford to perish now.
With the cooperation and guidance of the old palace master, their departure was much smoother than their arrival, without alerting Huaiyu's surveillance team.
Those people didn't even know that the old palace master and the immortal decree inside had secretly run away.
When the group returned to the area above the tomb chamber where Hua Shi was, the remaining seven palace masters were all waiting there. This was something they had notified everyone before they went to retrieve the Immortal Token.
After all, in order to untie the connection between Huaiyu and the Nine Star Palace Immortal Decree, besides letting Huaiyu release it automatically, there is another way: the remaining Nine Palace Masters can bring the Immortal Decree along.
It's impossible for Huaiyu to untie herself; otherwise, everyone wouldn't have been stuck with her for so many years.
As for the second one, the Nine Palace Masters had already reached a consensus, and naturally they cooperated highly, which led to the scene before them.
That clump of grass must be a bully who preys on the weak. Before, when only the three Immortal Emperors, Luo Feng, Lu Xu, and Jing Yao, were around, it was completely rigid. It would slap the ground and pluck it before activating the teleportation array.
Now that nearly ten Immortal Emperors are standing here, it immediately follows its heart. There's no need for it to slap the ground or grab a handful; it has already opened the teleportation array very consciously.
It even skipped over the teleportation frequency of the two people and sent everyone in at once.
Shushu was utterly amazed and couldn't help but give the other person a thumbs up.
Goodness, instead of feeling guilty, the other person looked proud and even strutted around, leaving Shushu completely speechless.
Soon, they reunited with Immortal Venerable Luofeng and the others.
When they saw Hua Shi lying upright in the coffin, the palace masters were still excited, circling around him again and again, as if they were looking at some rare and precious thing.
Hua Shao Palace Master went from feeling awkward and uncomfortable at first to becoming calm and composed, adopting an attitude of "whatever you like, look at it however you want."
Anyway, looking at it a few more times won't make you lose weight or cultivation. If you like looking, then look to your heart's content.
His appearance successfully made all the bigwigs lose interest in investigating and remember their business.
Without any delay, the Palace Master of the Nine Palaces cleaned up the entire tomb chamber and then began to untangle the bond between Huaiyu and the Immortal Decree.
The remnant soul of the old palace master held the immortal token of the Nine Star Palace, while the remaining nine palace masters surrounded them in a circle at the very center.
He began chanting incantations, and his men quickly formed a battle formation.
As the first Immortal Decree from the Shocking Heaven Palace flew out, the remaining eight Immortal Decrees also took to the air in turn.
The nine immortal tokens together formed a pattern resembling the Bagua diagram.
Immediately afterwards, the Bagua plate emitted two beams of light, one black and one white.
The white light rushed into the immortal token of the Nine Star Palace first, and a contract line appeared, one end connected to the immortal token and the other end extending into the distance.
Upon seeing this, the black light immediately transformed into a sharp longsword, which fell straight down with an unstoppable pressure, landing on the contract line.
With a buzzing sound, the contract thread snapped, and the immortal token of the Nine Star Palace regained its freedom.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the celestial token seemed to have suddenly gained insight, first rubbing against the old palace master with delight.
Following the old palace master's signal, he flew towards Hua Shi in the coffin, turning back every few steps, and rushed straight into the other's sea of consciousness.
After a burst of light, the holder of the Immortal Token had changed from Huaiyu to Huashi.
The other nine immortal tokens beside it also returned to their respective owners after it recognized Hua Shi as its master.
Without lingering, the group quickly rejoined the effort to help Hua Shi escape, gradually removing the numerous restrictions left by Huai Yu.
At the same time, Huaiyu, who was unconscious, was also abruptly awakened by the pain of being torn apart.
Upon realizing that the Immortal Decree had been unbound, her expression changed drastically. Ignoring her injuries and the metallic taste in her throat, she dragged her heavily wounded body and staggered toward the old palace master's secluded chamber.
His frenzied, bloodshot appearance startled even Qingnian, who rushed over upon hearing the noise.
After a pause, she finally stepped forward and reached out to support the person: "Master, where are you going?"
Upon hearing this, Huaiyu grasped Qingnian's arm tightly with both hands as if she had found a lifeline, her eyes bloodshot: "Take...take me to that old geezer's seclusion room."
To be honest, Huaiyu's current appearance is that her eyes are bloodshot, her mouth is full of blood, her face is distorted, and her whole aura is extremely chaotic.
Even though she was mentally prepared, Qingnian was still startled, and her heart skipped a beat.
