Slender willows sway in the breeze

Chapter 241 Jade Pool Elixir
These flames coalesced in the air into a giant chain that stretched towards the direction of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Liu Sijun gripped the Demon-Suppressing Talisman tightly and discovered that the two characters "He Chen" on the talisman were resonating with the Netherworld Fire.

She suddenly remembered the records in the "Nine Netherworld Demon Refining Record" and plunged the talisman into her heart: "Changzhou, use your Starry Sword Qi to ignite my Southern Bright Fire!"

Gu Changzhou instantly understood her intention, and the Xuan Tie Sword burst forth with dazzling golden light.

Two beams of light converged in mid-air, forming a giant character "镇魔" (Demon Suppression), sealing the Nine Netherworld Fire within the Nine Netherworld Spring.

The Lord of Tianxu Palace let out a resentful roar, and his figure gradually dissipated.

After the battle, the soldiers of Fenglei Kingdom regained their senses.

Ji Su knelt before Liu Sijun, presenting the Xuanming Bone Whip with both hands: "Many thanks to Lady Hou for saving my life. This whip has a deep connection with the Tianxu Palace; I humbly request that you safeguard it for me."

Liu Sijun took the bone whip and noticed that the words "He Chen" on the whip were slowly fading away, replaced by the words "Sijun".

She and Gu Changzhou exchanged a smile, knowing that it was the spirit of the demon-suppressing talisman protecting them.

When they returned to the Kingdom of Dayu, they were met with shocking news: after absorbing the demonic energy of the Netherworld, the fragments of the Taixu Mirror reflected the nine heavens of the Jade Pool Wonderland.

When Gu Changzhou and Liu Sijun learned that the true target of the Heavenly Ruins Palace Master was the Nine Heavens Palace of Yaochi Immortal Realm, their expressions instantly turned solemn. Without daring to delay, they immediately discussed countermeasures.

Liu Sijun stroked the Xuanming Bone Whip in her hand. The two characters "Sijun" on the whip shimmered with a faint light. She frowned and said, "Changzhou, although the Yaochi Wonderland is a secret realm and no one is stationed there, it is full of traps and extremely dangerous. Since Tianxu Palace covets what's inside, they must have made a lot of preparations. We cannot go there rashly."

Gu Changzhou nodded slightly, his eyes resolute, the black iron sword in his hand trembling slightly, as if sensing the impending crisis: "That's right, let's return to Yougu Palace first, discuss with Uncle Xu Hechen and the others, gather everyone's strength, and then make further plans. Moreover, we need more information about Yaochi Wonderland."

The two set off immediately to return to Yougu Palace.

After they informed Xu Hechen and the others of Tianxu Palace's objective, everyone's expressions turned solemn.

Xu Hechen pondered for a moment, then took out a yellowed ancient book from his robes and slowly said, "This is a record left by the former Palace Master of Fengze. It mentions Yaochi Wonderland, but not in detail. It only knows that it is a mysterious place left over from ancient times, containing many rare treasures that can enhance cultivation, as well as some powerful restrictions protecting it."

Leng Xuan frowned, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes: "Tianxu Palace has always been ruthless in its actions. In order to get what they want, they will definitely try to break those restrictions. We must speed up our actions and not let them get the things first."

At this moment, Gu Changzhou suddenly thought of something and said, "I remember Ji Su once said that Fenglei Kingdom and Yaochi Wonderland have some connection. Perhaps we can ask him for some information."

Liu Sijun nodded in agreement: "We should not delay. We should immediately send someone to Fenglei Kingdom to contact Ji Su."

Soon, the messenger sent to Fenglei Kingdom brought back the news. Ji Su took this matter very seriously and personally came to Yougu Palace.

Upon seeing the crowd, Ji Su bowed and said, "Gentlemen, I have heard the late Emperor mention the Jade Pool Wonderland. It does indeed contain many treasures, the most precious of which is the 'Jade Pool Spiritual Liquid,' which is said to be able to break through cultivation bottlenecks and even reshape the physical body. There is also the 'Heavenly Jade Lotus,' which has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. I presume that the Heavenly Ruins Palace covets these treasures, attempting to use their power to strengthen itself."

Ji Su's words made everyone's hearts tighten. If these treasures really fell into the hands of Tianxu Palace, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xu Hechen stroked the ancient book in his hand, his gaze deep: "Such a precious treasure, Tianxu Palace will definitely want it. We need to formulate a comprehensive plan to not only stop them, but also ensure our own safety."

Leng Xuan frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I think we can start by breaking the restrictions on Yaochi Wonderland. Although there are not many records about Yaochi Wonderland in ancient books, we can try to find clues in other ancient books, or consult some seniors who have studied ancient restrictions."

Gu Changzhou nodded slightly and added, "At the same time, we cannot ignore the actions of Tianxu Palace. Leng Xuan, can you use the power of Tianji Pavilion to closely monitor the movements of Tianxu Palace? Once we discover that they are heading to Yaochi Wonderland, we must act immediately."

Leng Xuan nodded confidently: "No problem, I will have all the spies in the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion closely monitor the Heavenly Ruins Palace's every move to ensure that no information is missed."

Liu Sijun gently twirled the Xuanming Bone Whip in his hand and said, "In addition, we need to improve our own strength. Although the disciples of Yougu Palace are not weak, they may not be enough to face the experts of Tianxu Palace. Uncle-Master Xu Hechen, do you think it is possible to arrange some targeted training?"

After pondering for a moment, Xu Hechen nodded and said, "That's a good idea. I will have the elders of Yougu Palace develop a training program based on the characteristics of Tianxu Palace, focusing on improving the disciples' combat skills and ability to deal with restrictions."

At this moment, Ji Su spoke up: "Gentlemen, my Fenglei Kingdom is also willing to do its part. I will select some elite soldiers to form a squad that will be at your command. Although their strength may not be as great as yours, they can still provide assistance to some extent."

Gu Changzhou looked at Ji Su gratefully: "General Ji, thank you for your support. With the help of Fenglei Kingdom, our chances of success have increased even more."

Ji Su waved his hand: "You two saved our Fenglei Kingdom last time, and this matter may be related to our repairs, so it is only right that we do these things."

The last crisis was thanks to the couple.

After returning, he told Qin Yongsheng, who finally believed that Mo Linhou's previous actions were purely to deal with Tianxu Palace.

He's overthinking it.

Therefore, this time, we came to help with His Majesty's permission.

After the discussion, everyone got to work.

Leng Xuan immediately returned to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and directed his undercover agents to gather intelligence on the Heavenly Ruins Palace.
Xu Hechen then summoned the elders of Yougu Palace to discuss the training plan.
Liu Sijun and Gu Changzhou were not idle either. They began to study the ancient books brought by Xu Hechen, trying to find a way to break the restrictions of Yaochi Wonderland.

While studying ancient books, Liu Sijun suddenly discovered a record about the restrictions on the Jade Pool Wonderland: "The restrictions on the Jade Pool can only be broken by using the power of the stars as a guide and the Southern Bright Fire as a key."
