However, the soldier flew out of the Rock Formation holding the Huaguang Gun, which immediately attracted the attention of the monks from the five sects of Lianchuan outside.
"Who is that?" asked Xu Ji, the chief elder of Taize Sect, one of the five sects in Lianchuan.
The other four sect elders took a look at each other, and then the Shanghua Sect's Great Elder Liu He said, "A True Immortal Realm cultivator, it seems he is the help sent by the Demon King Fu Qinggang."
"How dare a True Immortal Realm cultivator act so arrogantly?" A Xuanxian elder from the Taize Sect snorted coldly, then said to the five great elders from the five Lianchuan Sects sitting high above, "Watch me take his life."
After saying this, the Xuanxian elder of the Taize Sect took off on a cloud and flew in front of the heavenly soldier and said, "Who are you, young man? Tell me your name."
The celestial soldier said, "I am the celestial soldier Ao Ji. Who are you?"
This heavenly soldier named Ao Ji is a descendant of the West Sea Dragon Clan. Of course, his bloodline is very different from that of the West Sea Dragon King. He was recruited into the ranks of heavenly soldiers by the Heavenly Court during the war in the Southern Continent.
The Xuanxian Elder of the Taize Sect asked, "Heavenly Soldier? Are you a soldier?"
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Ao Ji looked at the other party and asked.
The Xuanxian Elder of the Taize Sect said, "You are unworthy of your talent. Come to my Taize Sect. I am Hong Houzhi, the elder of the Taize Sect. If you are willing to come to my Taize Sect, I will accept you as my personal disciple and give you fifty Jieyu as an offering every month. There is no shortage of cultivation resources in the sect. How do you think?"
"..." Ao Ji was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. After a while, he looked at Hong Houzhi and said, "Then, Elder, do you know how much my salary as a Heavenly Soldier is?"
Hong Houzhi stroked his beard lightly and asked indifferently and disdainfully, "How much?"
Ao Ji held up four fingers and said, "The heavenly soldiers are all seventh-rank immortal officials. My monthly salary is 490 Jieyu."
"!!!" Hong Houzhi's eyes widened instantly. He stared at Ao Ji blankly, then burst into laughter. "Boy, you don't have much ability, but you're great at bragging! Do you know that the direct disciples of the three major sects, Donghuo Sect, Zaiji Sect, and Shaoshen Sect, only receive 120 Jieyu jades per month? Is the sect behind you more powerful than these three?"
Ao Ji smiled but said nothing. At that moment, he felt an extremely strong sense of superiority. He then turned to Hong Houzhi and asked, "Don't worry about whether I'm bragging or not. I'm here to challenge you. Elder Hong, what is your level of cultivation?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Houzhi simply activated his magical power, and a faint radiance flashed from his body. He then released the power of the Xuanxian realm, and said proudly, "Xuanxian!"
But after hearing this, Ao Ji waved his hand with a look of disgust and said, "Go back, I want to challenge the cultivators of the Heavenly Immortal Realm."
"What?! You're so arrogant!" Hong Houzhi's face changed. He looked at Ao Ji and said, "You ignorant brat, you don't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is. You're just a True Immortal, and you dare to challenge the mighty Celestial Immortal!"
Ao Ji was also shocked when he heard this. "What? Can the Celestial Realm be called 'Great Power'? What year is it today?"
Hong Houzhi's expression changed several times. He looked at Ao Ji and said, "It seems that you really don't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is. Well, then let me show you the power of the Xuanxian Realm!"
After saying this, Hong Houzhi's body was surrounded by a flash of fairy light, and the pressure of the Xuanxian realm was immediately revealed.
"Bang!"
But then a loud bang sounded out of nowhere, and Hong Houzhi, a cultivator in the Xuanxian realm, was directly blown into a ball of blood mist. Even his soul did not escape and was blown to pieces.
Ao Ji slowly retracted the Huaguang gun and then flew directly back into the rock formation.
At this moment, whether it was Lihua and other demons in the Stone Dragon Pass or the monks from the five Lianchuan sects outside, they all stared blankly at the location where Hong Houzhi "exploded". For a moment, the entire Stone Dragon Pass fell into a deathly silence.
When Ao Ji returned, he was booed and mocked by the other 499 heavenly soldiers. "You clearly said you wanted to challenge a Celestial Immortal cultivator, but you only killed a Mystic Immortal!"
Ao Ji was also helpless. He said, "He ran out on his own before I even challenged him. What can I do? If I don't act quickly, I will be the one to die. In that situation, hesitation is fatal."
At this time, You Keji walked over and said, "Alright, killing one Xuanxian is enough to intimidate the enemy. Ao Ji, I will commend you for your merit. Now, everyone go and assist the demon garrison at Shilong Pass."
Ao Ji immediately bowed with excitement and said, "Thank you, General Bai!"
"Yes!" All the heavenly soldiers bowed to You Keji and accepted the order. Then the five hundred people instantly divided into one hundred teams and began to assist the Shilong Pass demon tribe to garrison the 800-mile Shilong Pass defense line.
After the heavenly soldiers dispersed, Lihua and the others finally reacted. Lihua then rushed to Youkeji and asked, "What magic weapon was that just now?"
Seeing Lihua's face full of shock and excitement, You Keji smiled and said, "That's not a magic weapon, that's a magic tool, the Huaguang Treasure Gun."
"What a powerful magic weapon! A True Immortal can actually use it to kill a Profound Immortal instantly! Can you give us some?" Lihua asked hopefully.
Upon hearing this, You Keji immediately shook his head and said, "The Huaguang Treasure Gun is a forbidden weapon. It can only be bestowed upon a third-rank or higher Heavenly General as a guarantor. I am only a sixth-rank Hundred Commander and do not have the authority to bestow this treasure upon others."
"I can buy it with the Robbery Jade!" Lihua said, "I will report to the Demon King immediately and use the Robbery Jade to buy this magic weapon!"
You Keji shook his head and said, "This isn't a matter of the Jade or the price. This is a matter of Heavenly Law. Selling or giving away the Huaguang Treasure Gun privately without a third-rank or higher Heavenly General as a guarantor is a violation of Heavenly Law."
"What is the Heavenly Law?" Lihua asked in surprise.
You Keji said: "It is a law, a heavenly law, a rule, and the most untouchable iron law."
After saying that, You Keji turned around and left, and began to check the situation of the heavenly soldiers stationed in Shilong Pass and the Rock Formation, leaving Lihua standing there in a daze.
