Chapter 651: Chaos outside Zikong Palace

"I have a feeling that there must be a treasure in the East China Sea that belongs to my sect."

As soon as Weng Jieguo finished speaking, Chu Tai smiled and said, "It is indeed so."

As he spoke, Chu Tai explained to him some of the information he knew, especially the relationship between Shaoyuan Jingjing Zikong Palace and Wenxia Gorge.

"I see."

Weng Jieguo nodded and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, are you telling me this in the hope that I can help the Jinhua Sect in Zikong Palace?"

"It does not need."

Chu Tai refused decisively. He said bluntly, "You have just returned. You should focus on improving your cultivation, collecting your luck, and the treasures left by the predecessors to prepare for reopening the mountain gate in the future. The fight between our Jinhua lineage and the Emei lineage should not involve you. I just want to ask you if you know some information about the Purple Sky Palace so that they will not be blind after entering."

"Telling you this is not much different from helping you. At most, it's just adding a fig leaf."

Weng Jieguo said this with a smile, and Taoist Xunling next to him heard it and began to talk about his past experiences.

Upon hearing that Taoist Xunling had a connection with Zikong Palace but was rejected by Emei Sect, Weng Jieguo expressed some anger.

Weng Jieguo also knew that there was nothing wrong with the Emei Sect's approach itself, but it did not conform to some of Wenxiaxia's ideas, especially his own practice ideas.

Therefore, Weng Jieguo thought about it for a while and told a few people what he knew.

A few days later, as the Zikong Palace gradually emerged under the pull of destiny, Chu Tai, Taoist Xunling, Fairy Guangze, together with Weng Jieguo, the Jinhua disciples, and the descendants of Xunling and Guangze, came to the outside of the Zikong Palace in Shaoyuan Jingjing.

As soon as they arrived, they saw a golden cloud falling. Taoist Yun Si brought his Emei disciples with him, but this time he was accompanied by two more fellow celestial beings.

One is Yan Yi from Xuanyuan Island, who can be regarded as an old senior in the cultivation world. He has practiced for more than two thousand years in this life and is proficient in the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.

The other is Fairy Zihua, who has a special relationship with Taoist Yunsi. The two most important disciples of Emei Sect now, Suguang who wields the Tianxing Sword and Guiguang who wields the Jiehuo Sword, are her junior sister in her previous life and her disciple in this life respectively. They can be said to be die-hard supporters of Emei Sect.

Looking at the two celestial beings, Chu Tai stepped forward and said, "You and I are both Xuanmen cultivators. If we really fight, it will be easy to damage the earth's crust. It won't look good if we attract those immortal seniors to fight. How about you and I wait outside for the opportunity to become disciples?"

As soon as Chu Tai finished speaking, Fairy Zihua sneered, "How ridiculous! This is where the ancestors of the Emei Sect collected rare treasures. What does it have to do with you? Do you think you can covet the treasures here just by bringing in two unorthodox people? If you retreat now, I can still save your face. Otherwise, I will definitely let you know how powerful I am."

Chu Tai was dumbfounded by these words. He didn't expect that Fairy Zihua would have such a personality. However, compared to Chu Tai's helplessness, Fairy Guangze who was traveling with him would not tolerate her.

She stepped forward and scolded, "I was wondering why it's so noisy here. It turns out that a gossipy woman from somewhere is shouting here. You said it nicely that this is the treasure trove of Emei Sect, but why did you speak up? How come the leader of Emei Sect is not Taoist Yunsi, but an old beggar like you?" Fairy Guangze's words made Fairy Zihua's eyes red, and Chu Tai also stepped forward.

"Fellow Daoist Guangze, what you said is not right. Although this place is now the treasure hiding place of Emei Sect, the real name of this place has nothing to do with Emei Sect. This place is called Shaoyuan Jingjing Zikong Palace, which was one of the eight fairyland where the former Master Hunyuan practiced. It was only because several palace masters had a relationship with Emei Sect in the early years that it was temporarily used by Emei Sect. The interesting thing is that the person who was destined to be here is actually Fellow Daoist Yunchi. I didn't know that the two people who came here today were Fellow Daoist Yunsi and Fellow Daoist Zihua, and there was no trace of Fellow Daoist Yunchi."

At first glance, Chu Tai's words seemed to be a rebuttal to Fairy Guangze's words, but upon closer thought, he realized that she was mocking Fairy Zihua and Taoist Yunsi. The fairy was so angry that her long hair flew up, and after saying yes repeatedly, she released her protective treasure.

The treasure was a crystal clear jade ring. It made a buzzing sound after it left his hand, followed by rising green flames and dancing purple lights, and then it split into thousands of gravel and fell down.

Those gravels were also strange. At the beginning, they were clearly emitting a light purple glow. Then, as they turned in the air, they differentiated into five-colored crystal sands. After they scattered in all directions, they quickly occupied the void. After a short while, Chu Tai and others were surrounded by colorful gravels all around them. The gravels were rotating up and down, and there was a vague sign that they were about to be wiped out.

Upon seeing this, Fairy Guangze sneered, raised her hand and released the magic weapon she had refined, the Jiyue Ningcui Bottle. A round of moonlight spurted out from the mouth of the bottle, and the silvery-white light was like green waves, easily binding the sand and gravel, and then rolled it back to put it into the bottle.

Fairy Zihua was shocked and wanted to call it back, but the moonlight was like mud, very sticky and heavy, and she couldn't control her magic weapon for a moment.

Seeing this, Yan Yi, who was standing nearby, raised his hand and released a magic weapon to help, but was stopped by Taoist Xun Ling, who waved his Xiantian Ruyi Fan. “Fellow Taoist, these two female fairies are fighting, so we two grown men should not interfere!”

As he spoke, he waved the Xiantian Ruyi Fan left and right, and countless strong winds swept away. Yan Yi raised his hand, and dozens of virtual shadows of hexagrams emerged, interweaving with each other to form the Bagua pattern, which led the strong winds into the Xun hexagram and dispersed into the void.

Then the hexagram changed, and thunder and fire appeared one by one to fight back.

Chu Tai also took a step forward and said to Taoist Yun Si: "It seems that we still have to fight. It's a good opportunity for me to see how good the master of the Emei Sect is."

Having said that, without waiting for the other party to agree, he waved the Liang Yi Qing Ning fan, driving the yin and yang energies into dragons and snakes, and strangled Taoist Yun Si.

Taoist Yun Si's eyes turned slightly cold. He flicked his finger and an iron shield appeared above his head. It dropped clear rays of light to protect the surroundings and block the yin and yang energies.

At the same time, Taoist Yun Si said to the disciples behind him and the younger generation of Xuanyuan Island: "You can go in according to the plan, and leave this place to me and the two masters."

Then he took the cloud ruler and swung it in the air. Golden air followed by cold air, and the two energies of thunder and fire intertwined and hit Chu Tai.

Of course, in this confrontation, whether it was Chu Tai, Guangze, Xun Ling, Yun Si, Zihua and Yan Yi, they were all relatively restrained, and the six of them all consciously restrained the release of the power of their own Dao Fruit embryos.

Apart from the concern to prevent causing too much fluctuation in vital energy which would lead to the immortals intervening again, part of the reason was also the fear that an overly strong collision would cause the Zikong Palace to sink into the sea again.

For a moment, the fight between the two sides felt like a friendly exchange.
