Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 564 really deserves to be on the list!

"what?"

Yu Ding exclaimed in shock, "Me?"

The Three Immortals of Sanxiao not only possess great supernatural powers, but also have the powerful backing of the Jie Sect. In the past, almost no one could force them to use this formation, so this formation was almost never revealed to the public and was unknown to outsiders.

But while others may not know how powerful this formation is, Yu Ding knows it perfectly well.

This formation contains the Bewitching Immortal Pill and the Sealing Immortal Technique, which can cause immortals to lose their spirit, dissipate their soul, trap their form, damage their energy, lose their original essence, and harm their limbs. Immortals who enter the formation become mortals, and mortals who enter the formation perish.

Aside from sages, even a Great Immortal would find it difficult to escape once inside.
This formation ranks among the top three in power among the Jie Sect's formations, second only to the Zhuxian Formation and the Wanxian Formation, which is no exaggeration at all.

In the original world of Investiture of the Gods, apart from Randeng, who reacted faster than everyone else and turned to escape when he saw the situation was not good, thus avoiding being captured by the Hunyuan Golden Bucket and thrown into the formation, everyone else, whether they were the Twelve Immortal Leaders or the quick-witted Yang Jian and other third-generation disciples, were all captured and thrown into the formation without exception.

It was only after his master and senior uncle appeared together that the formation was broken, and he was sent to...

His mood at this moment was similar to that of Benboerba, who was assigned by the Nine-Headed Insect to eliminate Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

After a moment of surprise, Yu Ding habitually put on a troubled expression: "Master, you know me, what happened before..."

"evil creature!"

Yuan Shi glanced at him and said, "If you don't go, are you going to ask your teacher to go again?"

He could hide in front of his fellow disciples, but today he's hiding right in front of Him.

There were two reasons why He personally went down the mountain to break the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation: firstly, it was ordained by fate, and secondly, it was indeed because his disciples were useless, a fact he had to admit.

The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is indeed extremely dangerous. If any of His disciples were capable enough to break the formation, why would He have to personally go and break it time and time again, only to be branded as bullying the weak and becoming a laughingstock?

However, on the other hand, as the master of the Chan Sect, the Primordial Saint, how could He not possess a thousand wondrous techniques comparable to the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation, and methods to break the formation?
Unfortunately, due to the limitations of fate, he could not pass it on to his disciples and could only watch as everything cycled and repeated itself time and time again.

Then... Yu Ding's mind stirred, and when he looked up, he saw that the chaotic mist was so thick that he couldn't see his master's face or expression at all.

Master said again… Yu Ding’s mind raced, but this was not the time for him to think about such things. He had no choice but to stop playing the victim and honestly said, “Master, it’s not that I don’t want to go, it’s just that… the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation is too powerful. I’m afraid I can’t break it!”

He paused for a moment and then cautiously offered his idea: "Or perhaps Master could teach me a method to break the formation or some kind of magic weapon?"

Yuanshi said meaningfully, "Just because you couldn't do it before doesn't mean you can't do it now. You definitely have the ability to break the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation now."

Yu Ding said, "...Thank you for the praise, Master, but you are really overestimating me."

Yuanshi gazed at the jade cauldron with a deep look in his eyes, and said with a half-smile, "Aren't you very warlike? Have you always regretted not finding a suitable opponent to test your methods? Well, this is the perfect time."

Oh dear, you noticed that... Yu Ding said frankly, "Ahem, this disciple is not actually that warlike. This disciple cultivates his character and follows the natural way, and hates fighting and killing the most."

Yuanshi fell silent for a moment after hearing this, and finally looked at the jade cauldron meaningfully and said, "Since you say so, then I have no choice but to make the trip."

"Hey Master, please don't..." Yu Ding hurriedly said, "I'll go!"

Yuanshi glanced at him: "Don't force yourself!"

Yu Ding said righteously, "I am but a mere Sanxiao, not even Tongtian Shishu. Why should Master trouble you? Since Master has not taught me how to break the formation, then let this disciple try to break it first. If it fails, then Master can come down the mountain."

When his master called him, he had already made up his mind that he would definitely go, after all, they were three good friends... the eldest sister, the middle sister, and the youngest sister.

If he went there, there would still be room for maneuver, but this master went down the mountain and started issuing positions everywhere, and you couldn't refuse.

This time, his mission is to fight against the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, and he is truly wary of the Nine Turns Yellow River Formation. He is worried about defeat before he can win, so it is not unreasonable for him to ask his master for some backup plans in case of emergency.
Yuanshi glanced helplessly at the jade cauldron and shook his head speechlessly.

He discovered that this guy's personality had changed drastically since the robbery. He was no longer like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, showing his sharpness. He was now hiding his edge and being overly cautious.

……

At this time, the other side.

As the four female immortals, Qiongxiao, Bixiao, Shiji, and Hanzhixian, were heading towards Xiqi, a voice suddenly called out from behind, "Sisters, wait for me!"

When everyone stopped and looked back, they saw that the newcomer was dressed in a fairy robe woven from colorful clouds, and was very beautiful and charming. It was none other than the Fairy of Colorful Clouds.

Fairy Caiyun smiled and said, "Why didn't you invite me when you four sisters were going to Xiqi?"

Bixiao asked in surprise, "You're going too?"

Fairy Caiyun smiled and said, "I met Shen Gongbao today. He invited me to go with him to Brother Wendao's place to help him. I came to find Sister Hanzhi and then heard from the servant that we were coming this way. It's good that we can all travel together."

"Shen Gongbao?"

Han Zhixian couldn't help but laugh and said, "This guy is quite kind-hearted. He's been running around non-stop for Wen Zhong's sake. He came to see me and Senior Brother Qin before, but I was delayed because I was refining a batch of pills."

"They also came to see me."

Shi Ji said, "But you've misunderstood, Senior Sister. He's not a kind-hearted person at all. He's just trying to prove Jiang Ziya wrong. The reason he became the Grand Preceptor of the Shang Dynasty was to compete with Jiang Ziya."

These words moved them deeply.

Qiongxiao sighed, "I heard that they used to be very close fellow disciples, but now they've fought to this extent because of their pride. It's truly a cruel twist of fate."

"Sister Qiongxiao, you are mistaken. This is not some twist of fate. The discord between brothers is mostly caused by the elders' lack of virtue and favoritism."

Fairy Caiyun sneered, "If anyone is to blame, it's their master, Yuanshi Tianzun. He first promised to give the important task of conferring the gods to Shen Gongbao, but then he went back on his word and handed the matter over to the useless Jiang Ziya. Isn't this a blatant humiliation? Who could swallow this insult?"

"Shh, little sister, watch your words."

Startled by these words, Qiongxiao quickly said, "It's getting late, we need to hurry and get going!"

Five female immortals came to Xiqi, riding divine birds and soon arrived outside the gate of the Shang camp. A gatekeeper had already reported this to the central army.

Wen Zhong, Qiu Shouxian, and others quickly left the camp to welcome them into the tent.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, Yunxiao was not present. At this time, Qiongxiao, being the eldest, spoke up: "A few days ago, you invited my elder brother down the mountain, but he was ambushed by Lu Ya's Seven Arrows of Nailhead. I wonder where he is now?"

Wen Zhong was taken aback: "Uncle Zhao was ambushed and is unconscious. Uncle Lingya died trying to help him get the Arrow Book. We were helpless, so Junior Uncle said he would take it to the Three Immortal Islands to ask you for a solution. What, did they not come?"

"Tianxu?"

This left Qiongxiao and Bixiao momentarily stunned: "No!"

Wen Zhong's face showed a worried expression: "How could that be? Could it be that Junior Uncle has returned to Jin'ao Island?"

Fairy Caiyun said, "No, I came from Jin'ao Island and I haven't seen him along the way."

Qiongxiao said, "Quickly ask him."

Bixiao immediately took out the crystal doll and dialed several times, but no one answered. She also sent messages, but no one replied.

Fairy Caiyun, Shiji, and Fairy Hanzhi each took out their items, but in the end, they all shook their heads: "Nobody here."

This made their hearts sink to the bottom.

Mount Emei, in front of Luofu Cave.

In the distance, the sun sets, casting fiery clouds for three thousand miles; nearby, immortals stand side by side on a tea table by the cliff.

"Originally, I planned to take Senior Brother Zhao to find you."

Tianxu said, "I was just afraid... so I took the liberty of bringing Senior Brother Zhao back to Mount Emei. I hope Senior Sister will forgive me."

Yunxiao shook his head: "You did the right thing. If you two were to bring it back to the Three Immortal Islands, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stop you. I will personally go to Xiqi to retrieve the Arrow Letter later."

Tianxu hesitated, then said, "There's something I'm not sure if I should say."

Yunxiao asked in surprise, "What can't be said? Junior Brother, please speak your mind."

Tianxu said, "Actually, we owe a lot to Brother Yuding of the Chan Sect for the fact that Senior Brother Zhao is still alive."

Yunxiao's expression shifted: "Jade Cauldron?"

Tianxu said, "That's right. The Seven Arrows of Nailhead Book is set for a period of twenty-one days, but today is already the twenty-second day. Yet, Senior Brother is still safe and sound. Senior Sister, do you know why?"

Yunxiao pondered for a moment and then shook his head.

Tianxu glanced around, and Yunxiao immediately understood. With a flick of his sleeve, it seemed as if an invisible "blade" had sliced ​​through the void, separating the space they were in from the primordial world and creating an independent space.

Tianxu then said, "Because Lu Ya was also hit by the Seven Arrows of Nailhead and is now unconscious."

Yunxiao found it both amusing and unbelievable: "No, how is this possible? How could Lu Ya fall for his own secret technique?"

This was an answer she never expected.

The assassin had fallen for her own trick; it was so ridiculous, the funniest joke she'd ever heard.

Tianxu didn't laugh; he just stared intently at the clouds.

Yunxiao watched as Tianxu's smile faded, then fell silent for a moment before saying, "So, it's true."

Tianxu nodded: "Lu Ya originally intended to pass this technique on to Jiang Ziya to assassinate Senior Brother Zhao. I don't know how Brother Yuding obtained this technique and secretly handed it to me."

Yunxiao was taken aback: "...Jade Cauldron?" "Yes!"

Tianxu nodded in confirmation, "I arranged for Wen Zhong to also pay homage to Lu Ya every day, almost simultaneously with Xiqi. A few days ago, Lu Ya finally couldn't withstand the attack and tried to seize the Arrow Book. Fortunately, I was prepared. I used the Pure Spirit Talisman to seal Senior Brother Zhao's primordial spirit and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to injure Lu Ya. In addition, I also used the Seven Arrow Books..."

He chuckled and said, "So, I'm afraid Lu Ya is probably fast asleep somewhere right now, so how could he possibly use this technique to kill Senior Brother Zhao?"

Yunxiao pondered for a long time before saying, "Why do you think Yu Ding should help us?"

Tianxu said, "Brother Yuding said that our two sects originated from the same source, and he doesn't want to see the two sects kill each other. He admires Brother Zhao's righteousness and can't bear to see him suffer, and there's more..."

He hesitated.

Yunxiao sighed softly, "In the entire Jade Void lineage, only he has such a grand vision. Who else is there?"

Tianxu glanced at Yunxiao and said, "Brother Yuding also said... said..."

Yunxiao asked curiously, "What else is there to say?"

Tianxu said, "Brother Yuding also said that Senior Sister Yunxiao is of noble character and exceptionally talented. His admiration for her is like a surging river..."

"what?"

Yunxiao stared at Tianxu with a strange expression: "Is it admiration or reverence, Junior Brother? Don't slip up again."

Yu Ding would say such a thing... How could she not believe it!
Tianxu felt the pressure from the Great Luo Immortal and forced himself to say, "I admire you, I truly admire you."

Yunxiao sneered, "That's more like it."

Her friendship with Yu Ding was unlike that of others; after all, they knew each other inside and out.

Of all the fairies in the primordial world, why would Yu Ding admire her instead of the other way around?
Tianxu carefully added, "Actually, I think that besides admiration, Yuding might also have some admiration for Senior Sister. Otherwise, why would he take such a big risk to deal with their people?"

Old Yu Ding, I've said all the right things to you; the rest is up to you.

Yunxiao stood there, stunned.

As Tianxu carefully observed, Yunxiao suddenly scolded, "Junior brother, don't talk nonsense. Yuding and I are just good friends who get along well..."

Just then, Yunxiao suddenly calculated with his fingers, and his expression changed: "Oh dear, they've only been out for a short while and they're already here! Hurry up and leave!"

Tianxu asked, "Senior Sister, what's wrong?"

Yunxiao raised her hand and pressed down, and the void that had been separated returned to heaven and earth: "Your senior sisters Qiongxiao and Bixiao went to Xiqi while I was away. It was a miscalculation. They should have left a clone behind when they left."

"You're not as experienced as Old Jade Cauldron in this respect, Senior Sister..." Tianxu thought to himself. After all, that guy Jade Cauldron would leave his clones wherever he went, and he didn't even know exactly how many clones he had.

Suddenly, Yunxiao stopped abruptly, causing Tianxu to also brake suddenly and come to a stop.

"Sister?"

"You are not allowed to say a single word of what you just said to anyone else, remember that?" Yunxiao turned around and stared at Tianxu.

Tianxu asked, puzzled, "What did you say?"

Yunxiao snorted and smiled, "You reacted quite quickly."

Tianxu sighed: "My master trained me like this, and he always wants to beat me up."

Back then, everyone was saying "Tianxu, get in here!" all the time, it was like living a prehistoric version of Xiaoming.

A beam of celestial light enveloped the heavens, and with light steps, it soared straight to the sky.

Just as Tian Xu was wondering if Yunxiao would use her Shrinking Earth to walk there, she saw her sweep her sleeves, let out a long cry, and a surge of blue light appeared. A blue phoenix, carrying a blazing blue light, flapped its wings and emerged from her sleeves.

Yunxiao moved swiftly and brought Tianxu behind Qingluan.

These female immortals really don't want to take a single step... Tianxu's forehead twitched, and he looked at the blue phoenix in surprise: "Great power?"

"Phoenix feathers and unicorn horns" is originally a phrase used to describe something extremely rare, but in the primordial world, there were far too many such things. Pure-blooded divine birds and beasts were plentiful, and this Azure Phoenix was a pure-blooded divine bird with a frighteningly high cultivation level.

The blue phoenix let out a triumphant cry.

Tianxu said unhappily, "What are you so proud of? You've cultivated for many more years than me, and you're much older than me."

Upon hearing the word "age," Qingluan let out an angry cry, her feathers bristling, and turned to peck Tianxu.

"Qing'er, stop fooling around!"

After offering a reassuring remark, Yunxiao glanced at Tianxu and said, "Junior brother, it's not Master's fault. Sometimes... you really do deserve a beating."

He always took the blame for Yu Ding in the past, okay... Tianxu looked at Yunxiao's back and suddenly understood something, and had an urge to slap himself.

Although immortals are eternally youthful, the word "old" is taboo among female immortals!

Otherwise, why would that girl Longji keep saying she's only sixteen and acting all young, but when she gets physical, she's incredibly shrewd?

With a flap of its wings, the Azure Phoenix flew tens of thousands of miles in an instant, arriving at the gate of the merchant camp in no time. The sun had not yet completely set, which shows how fast it was.

As soon as they arrived, they saw Qiongxiao, Bixiao, and the other two riding together on clouds, heading towards Xiqi City.

"Big sister? Tianxu?"

Everyone was taken aback when they saw the two arrive.

Bixiao spotted Tianxu immediately and asked urgently, "Tianxu, where did you take my brother?"

Yunxiao glanced at the group and asked, "What are you all going to do?"

Bixiao said urgently, "Eldest sister, you don't know, eldest brother has been ambushed by Lu Ya's Seven Arrows of Nailhead and is in imminent danger. We must go and retrieve the arrow book!"

Yunxiao glanced back at Xiqi City and saw auspicious colors surging in the sky above the west gate. He shook his head slightly and said, "I know everything about this matter. I think it's getting late today. Tomorrow we will go and ask for it directly without stealing or robbing."

Bixiao said, "What if they refuse..."

Yunxiao glanced at it and said, "...If you don't want to, then we'll talk. Let's go back first."

The group had no choice but to follow Yunxiao into the village.

Bixiao leaned over to Tianxu and kicked him: "Where did you take my brother? You didn't even answer the phone! You scared us to death, you know?"

Tianxu was in so much pain he jumped up and down. Before he could say anything, Qiongxiao smiled and flicked a pill into his mouth: "Don't rush. Think of a reason that can convince us. You still have...emm...the time it takes to brew a cup of tea."

Tianxu smiled and said, "Poison?"

Qiongxiao smiled and asked, "Are you scared?"

Tianxu laughed and said, "If my senior sister gave it to me, I would eat it even if it were poison."

Qiongxiao smiled and said, "What if I said there's no antidote?"

Tianxu's smile was somewhat forced: "There's no antidote?"

Qiongxiao looked at him like he was an idiot: "Why would I bother making an antidote if I wanted to poison people? Just to wait for someone to come and steal it... Where are you going?"

Tianxu left without looking back: "I want to find a quiet place to die peacefully."

My God, go wash your stomach first!

Qiongxiao, you really deserve to be on the list!
"Hehe!" Qiongxiao smiled slyly as she saw Tianxu's back.

Yunxiao frowned and was about to speak when Qiongxiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, eldest sister, everything's fine. Why did he make us worry for so long?"

Once everyone entered the camp, Wen Zhong was overjoyed to see Yunxiao again and immediately prepared a banquet to entertain him.

Xiqi, on a reed hut.

At this moment, the people of Yuxu also saw several beams of immortal light above the merchant camp.

"More help has arrived..."

Everyone frowned secretly. They had agreed to return after breaking the Ten Deadly Formations, but the enemy's reinforcements kept coming in waves.

The day he could return to the mountain was now indefinitely postponed.

No, is this never going to end?
Yu Ding looked at the merchant camp, then at his fellow disciples who looked worried, wondering when Yu Xu Palace would send him down the mountain to break the formation.

Suddenly, he heard a soft snoring sound next to him; it was Huang Long sleeping with his head down.

Everyone was already used to this, and they even envied Huanglong's ability to talk when he wanted to talk and sleep when he wanted to sleep, without taking anything to heart, unlike everyone else who worried and wasted their time.

This damn feeling of relaxation... Yu Ding shook his head and chuckled, quite impressed.

Since even his master said not to force this tribulation, then let it come sooner rather than later. He believed that his fellow disciples would adjust their mindset by then.

After all... they were just retracing the path he had taken to get here from Yu Ding!
