"What exactly are your intentions?!"

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch couldn't help but snort coldly, his sword gleaming like frost.

A deep sense of apprehension flashed in his eyes.

The reason is quite simple.

The fact that this person was able to lie in wait here, impersonating the 'Azure Sky Longevity True Lord', must have been something he did before the arrival of the Wandering Heaven Kun swarm in this world.

That was sixty or seventy years ago.

Although for cultivators, sixty or seventy years is but a blink of an eye.

But since the other party has been able to lie in wait here for so long, they must have something on their mind!

The fact that no one had discovered his whereabouts for so long was enough to make Jade Palace Frost True Monarch's scalp tingle!
What is this person plotting now?!

After all, he was the first guy to tear apart the Xuan Tian Sect's spiritual veins, steal the Xuanhuang Realm's origin, and trick them!

Thinking of this, Jade Palace Frost True Monarch couldn't help but exhale, his eyes filled with killing intent and interest as he looked at Zheng Jun.

He could naturally tell that Zheng Jun was not present in his true form.

Otherwise, how could he possibly draw his sword? He would have obediently fled long ago to seek help from the four Nascent Soul cultivators of the Taixu Sword Pavilion.

But now that the true form is not here, Jade Palace Frost True Monarch has the opportunity to make a move.

"This person has been lying in wait for a long time; he must have some ulterior motive! If we can capture this wisp of his soul and interrogate him, perhaps we'll have a chance to break through!"

Thinking of this, a hint of greed appeared on Jade Palace Frost True Monarch's face, clearly indicating that he wanted to take it all for himself!

Biluo Changsheng Zhenjun was indeed his close friend of many years, but this friend is now dead. Capturing Zheng Jun can be considered as upholding justice for him and avenging his grievances!

The dead cannot be brought back to life, but the living must continue to live.

"boom--!"

The frost-cold sword energy tore through the clouds, and wherever the Jade Palace Frost True Monarch's sword pointed, even the space itself froze into frost.

The purple light formed from Zheng Jun's remnant soul darted left and right amidst the sword light, and the bronze compass phantom formed by the Heavenly Secrets Stealing Dharma Body took the blow head-on, cracks already appearing on its surface.

"It's quite troublesome."

Zheng Jun was also somewhat irritated. After all, he was just a wisp of divine soul here. Although he was pretending to possess the 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma form, he was indeed no match for him.

After thinking it over, he took to the air and sped towards the outside of the boundary.

Zheng Jun wanted to see if this Jade Palace Frost True Monarch dared to give chase!
"Want to go?"

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch sneered, and twelve Ice Soul Nails suddenly flew out from his sleeve.

These Ice Soul Nails are specifically designed to counter the soul, making them an excellent magical weapon.

These twelve magical treasures formed the 'Mysterious Yin Soul-Locking Array' in the air, attempting to completely seal off Zheng Jun's remnant soul's escape route.

Seeing the Ice Soul Nails forming a large array to block the retreat, Zheng Jun's lips curled into a mocking smile. The gray light at his fingertips surged, and the Heavenly Secrets Stealing Dharma Image suddenly reversed. The bronze compass phantom hung upside down like a mirror, actually reflecting the array patterns of the Profound Yin Soul Locking Array back to their original path!
Suddenly, the twelve Ice Soul Nails changed direction, carrying chaotic energy as they retaliated against Jade Palace Frost True Monarch.

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch snorted coldly, and as his sleeves billowed, frost filled the sky.

Before those ice-soul nails, powerful enough to freeze the very soul, could even get close, they were intercepted in mid-air by a condensed, extremely cold light, solidifying them like an amber-sealed insect within ice crystals.

"No wonder he dared to infiltrate alone..."

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch's eyes showed even deeper apprehension, yet his sword became even sharper.

This method is indeed unpredictable. Even when facing a wisp of divine soul, a cultivator at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm must be careful, otherwise he might really be caught off guard and suffer a setback.

With this thought in mind, Jade Palace Frost Condensation True Monarch rose into the air on an ice lotus, and behind him appeared a phantom of a ten-thousand-foot-long glacier, which was his innate divine power 'Nine Heavens Frost Condensation Realm'!
The entire Danxia Mountain instantly turned into an ice sculpture, even the flow of spiritual energy was frozen, and Zheng Jun's soul was also trapped in a quagmire, and the speed of his purple light escape visibly slowed down.

"what happened?"

"It's Jade Palace Frost True Monarch! What does he want?!"

"not good!"

"..."

The cultivators of Xuantian Sect were unaware that after this drastic change, Danxia Mountain, which had always been as warm as spring, suddenly became covered in ice and snow. Many cultivators from the Great Dao Peak were even injured and killed by this 'Nine Heavens Frost Realm' before they could even speak.

The Jade Palace Frost True Monarch remained oblivious to the panicked expressions of the Xuan Tian Sect cultivators.

Or rather, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, he naturally had no need to explain anything to these lower-level cultivators, and instead continued to draw his sword!

"Stay!"

With a single sword strike, murderous intent surged forth!
Upon seeing the sword light, Zheng Jun frowned.

Although his wisp of soul was able to maneuver for a while, it was indeed no match for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Zheng Jun's original plan was that since he had already been exposed, he might as well abandon everything here and call it a day. After his wisp of soul escaped, he would wander around the Xuanhuang Realm for a while, and then return to his main body after the Youtian Kun group left.

But unexpectedly, this Jade Palace Frost True Monarch acted as if he wanted to kill me.

Okay, okay, this is how you play, right?
Zheng Jun took a deep breath and immediately raised his voice, "Fellow Daoist Yuque, it is better to be lenient when you can. If you push too far, don't blame me."

"Humph."

Jade Palace Frost True Lord remained silent, only drawing his sword.

Seeing this, Zheng Jun couldn't help but take a deep breath and let out a cold snort.

If you're ruthless, don't blame me for being unjust!
Wu Sangui model, activated!

Zheng Jun is ready.

He intends to use the 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' technique to reverse the spatial barrier, briefly opening a small hole in the boundary to summon the wandering swarm of Heavenly Kun outside!
Zheng Jun didn't like doing things this way before.

Just as Wu Sangui allowed the Qing army to enter the pass and became the greatest traitor in history, he was despised by everyone, and the Qing army did not appreciate Wu Sangui's kindness.

If Zheng Jun were to bring You Tiankun in, it would increase the Xuanhuang Realm's dislike for him by ten thousand times. Even if he used the 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma Form to conceal his identity, he would not be able to come to the Xuanhuang Realm.

Besides, even though he took the initiative to open the door and welcome them in, You Tiankun's group didn't give him a friendly look.

But now that Jade Palace Frost True Monarch is pressing so hard, then don't blame me, buddy!

Anyway, I'm not from the Xuanhuang Realm; I'm from the Yanfu Realm.

Moreover, by doing so, the secrets of heaven will be disrupted, and one can also fulfill the repayment condition of the second condition of the 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma!
"boom!"

As the frost blade slashed down, Zheng Jun suddenly crushed the gray compass in his palm, and the fake 'Stealing Heaven' Dharma image began to twist wildly!
The 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma form erupted with dazzling light, tearing a rift in the frozen spacetime.

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch felt his sword tip pause for a moment, and the opponent's remnant soul had already transformed into a gray line like a swimming fish, shooting outwards along the chaotic gaps in the Heavenly Dao.

"Fellow Daoist, don't run away. Why don't you sit down and chat? I'm not an unfeeling person." Seeing that Zheng Jun was still running away, True Monarch Yuque Ningshuang seemed to be quite at ease. He even spoke up to persuade Zheng Jun to surrender, while simultaneously slashing out with his sword.

Seeing Zheng Jun heading towards the boundary wall, Jade Palace Frost True Monarch didn't react much, simply thinking that Zheng Jun was wandering around aimlessly.

However, when he realized that Zheng Jun had been pretending to use the 'Stealing Heaven' technique and seemed to be planning something, his sword strike suddenly faltered, and the gray line that shot straight into the sky was reflected in his eyes.

At first, he thought Zheng Jun was just struggling to escape through the crack in the Heavenly Dao, but when he saw the gray line pointing directly to the weak point of the boundary wall, a chill instantly ran from his spine to the back of his neck.

At this moment, Zheng Jun had already arrived at the weak point of the boundary wall. He smiled slightly and began to make contact with the boundary wall with his 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma Form!

Upon witnessing this scene, Jade Palace Frost True Monarch felt a chill run down his spine and immediately shouted sternly, "Stop! Do you know—"

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Jun's "Stealing Heavenly Secrets" Dharma form pierced the boundary membrane like an awl.

The moment the gray line touched the boundary wall, the sky of the Xuanhuang Realm suddenly cracked open, as if a glass cup had been struck and fine cracks appeared.

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch was horrified to discover that his early Nascent Soul stage magic power was being suppressed by the disorder of the Heavenly Dao, causing it to stagnate. Even his natal flying sword was groaning under the strain!
Zheng Jun's soul solidified into a phantom before the boundary membrane, then turned to Jade Palace Frost True Monarch with a sinister smile: "Didn't you just intend to exterminate them all?"

Having said that, he suddenly tore his palms apart to the sides, and the Heavenly Secrets Stealing Dharma Form transformed into thousands of gray threads that embedded themselves in the cracks: "Today, I invite fellow Daoists to enjoy this grand feast of the Kun swarm!"

"boom!"

The deafening roar of the sky shattering shook the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles.

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch watched as the azure pupils of more than ten roaming Kun suddenly lit up in the chaos beyond the boundary, their mountain-like tail fins already slapping towards the crack.

"Are you crazy?!"

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch's frosty hair danced wildly as he finally abandoned his composed demeanor, panicking as he exclaimed, "Your actions have incurred the wrath of Heaven! Your soul will have nowhere to escape and will surely be annihilated!"

Zheng Jun's illusory figure appeared and disappeared in the chaotic airflow. Upon hearing this, he burst out laughing: "Fellow Daoist Yuque is too humorous. Both of your souls are damaged. So what? At worst, you will just stop coming to the Xuanhuang Realm."

Before the words were even finished, the first giant skull of the You Tiankun had already squeezed into the crack!

"hold head high!"

You Tiankun arrived with a whale-like roar, his enormous whale body already floating above the sky of the Xuanhuang Realm!
At the same time, all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Xuanhuang Realm sensed the aura of You Tiankun.

"Ok?"

Xuanqiong Yuxiao Zhenjun, who was in seclusion at the Taixu Sword Pavilion, frowned, a strange light flashing in his eyes: "Who opened the boundary?!"

With inside help and outside cooperation, there must have been a Nascent Soul level technique used to pry open the boundary wall, allowing the roaming Kun swarm from outside the realm to enter!

This is really going to cause me trouble.

Xuanqiong Yuxiao Zhenjun's expression was unfriendly. He thought to himself, then calmly stepped out of his secluded cultivation place and looked at the three people outside the door.

These three were none other than the other three Nascent Soul cultivators of the Taixu Sword Pavilion: Azure Moon Slaying True Monarch, Taixu Star Evolution True Monarch, and Nine Hells Burning Heart Nascent Monarch.

"Brother Headmaster."

Azure Moon Slayer True Monarch bowed to the Profound Sky Sovereign True Monarch before him and said, "The celestial order is in chaos; an ancient beast has entered the realm. We..."

The Azure Moon Slayer True Lord was a young swordsman with red lips and white teeth, dressed in a blue robe, and looked quite dashing.

Upon hearing Qingming Zhanyue Zhenjun's words, Xuanqiong Yuxiao Zhenjun immediately said, "Someone opened the boundary wall, and only two or three Youtian Kun were able to enter the boundary. We can still handle it. Let's take action as soon as possible to prevent them from causing trouble in the boundary and devouring the Xuanhuang Origin."

For True Monarch Xuanqiong Yuxiao, the Xuanhuang Origin was already his, and if he didn't let You Tiankun destroy it, it would be his own Origin that was being depleted.

This is something that True Lord Xuanqiong Yuxiao cannot tolerate.

The immediate solution is naturally to repair the barrier and drive away the wandering Kun.

As for the perpetrator, they will have to be found after the disaster.

"go!"

Having said that, True Monarch Xuanqiong Yuxiao transformed into a sword aura and soared into the sky, flying towards the place where You Tiankun had descended.

Upon seeing this, Qingming Zhanyue Zhenjun, Taixu Yanxing Zhenjun, and Jiuyu Fenxin Yuanjun also took to the air and followed behind Xuanqiong Yuxiao Zhenjun, rushing together.

Besides the four Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Taixu Sword Pavilion, other Nascent Soul True Monarchs from various regions also moved at the same time.

Although most of them had no hope of becoming Dao Masters, this was, after all, their home, on which they depended for survival. If it were to be ravaged by the You Tiankun and its spiritual energy were to decline, it would affect their own homes.

Therefore, at the same time, at least ten Nascent Soul auras began to lock onto You Tiankun.

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch was now terrified.

Because he is right in the center of this boundary.

Two celestial kun have already entered!

The third one had already entered, with half of its body inside.

After entering the Xuanhuang Realm, You Tiankun's first target was naturally Jade Palace Frost True Monarch.

After all, Zheng Jun was just a wisp of divine soul, nothing more than a small candle flame to You Tiankun, while Jade Palace Frost True Monarch was like a light bulb, completely illuminating the entire room and giving them a direction to choose from.

"boom!"

In an instant, the two roaming Kun launched an attack on the Jade Palace Frost True Monarch.

The two giant tails of the two swirling Kun swept across, stirring up the wind and clouds. Jade Palace Frost True Monarch hastily summoned his natal flying sword to defend, but was blasted back a hundred feet by the violent chaotic energy, and the Frost Sword Domain shattered inch by inch!
His face turned ashen, and he was about to retreat when he saw the gray light formed from Zheng Jun's soul suddenly fall to the ground, disappearing without a trace like a drop of water entering the sea.

"Damn it!"

Jade Palace Frost True Monarch looked in the direction Zheng Jun had fled, his face extremely grim. Zheng Jun, however, had already vanished into the depths of the Xuanhuang Realm, completely ignoring the battle in the sky.

At this moment, Zheng Jun began to act frantically.

The method of stealing heavenly secrets transforms into invisible threads, quietly wrapping around the disordered meridians of heavenly secrets.

The second condition for repayment is to steal that elusive 'variable' amidst this chaotic situation that has angered both heaven and man!
This is truly a golden opportunity!

Once condition two is met, this wisp of divine soul can be discarded; it will only cause a headache for a while.

The fulfillment of these repayment conditions is practically harmless!
However, the only problem with doing things this way is that the martial arts world I've painstakingly created is bound to fail, and repaying that 'martial arts world' will be a bit troublesome, requiring me to rebuild it from scratch.

Ugh.

Zheng Jun sighed, looked at the streaks of light in the sky, and decided to ignore them, instead closing his eyes to rest and focus on stealing the secrets of heaven.

Unaware of the passage of time, a line of gilded characters appeared before Zheng Jun.

[Condition two for the 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma Image: Repayment complete.]

[The 'Stealing Heavenly Secrets' Dharma Image has been repaid.] (End of Chapter)
