Shangyuque

Chapter 315 Taking my beloved with me, we travel to the ends of the earth~
The Blood Bone Dao Court, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable truly does not want to go now.

That's why he was so subtle in his portrayal of a pure water persona.

For Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, meeting Blood Bone before his strength has recovered to a certain level is somewhat like "meeting too soon."

Unfortunately, as a being of immense pride, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's charisma could not be concealed within the Blood Bone Dao Court, a place utterly devoid of substance.

After seeing off Xue Hanshuang, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable looked at his beloved master.

“Master, I’m afraid you’ll have to come back to the Dao Court with me. The Immortal King has ordered you to obey me, so I should be able to command you, right?”

There's nothing we can do. That bastard Mang Xiang, even though he's currently being suppressed by Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, looks like an old dog with its tail between its legs.

However, the weakness and defeat of the monstrous elephant were failures at the level of confrontation with the immortals.

If the Four Spirit Realms were given even a little room to develop, the Mangxiang would be able to create a massive mass of creatures, at which point the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable would face a difficult situation.

"Yu Lou, you underestimate me. We will eventually return to the Great World. How can I disobey His Majesty's orders?"

Mang Xiang's words make sense. The Four Spirit Realms are wonderful for them, but they are being watched very closely.

The idea of ​​trying to break free from the constraints of the top-tier Golden Core cultivators in the Great Heaven and Earth by devouring them alone is unrealistic, and may even lead to certain death.

But Wang Yulou knew that Mang Xiang hadn't finished speaking.

"However, I have taken over Xue Loulan's identity. If I were to meet Xue Gu with you under that identity, things would get complicated."

Wang Yulou had no doubt—of course Lao Mang wanted to run away.

It's easy to imagine that after Mang Xiang ran away, he would be confident that he could accumulate strength for a hundred or several hundred years, and then seize the opportunity to overthrow Wang Yulou and avenge today's humiliation.

Wang Yulou seized the initiative and, relying on his relative strength, temporarily suppressed the Mangxiang.

However, this initial advantage is not enough for Wang Yulou to stifle all the later prodigies in the vast Four Spirit Realms—that would offend too many native Dao Ancestors of the Four Spirit Realms.

"Hahaha, Master, I know perfectly well how powerful your Formless Dharma is."

The threat from beyond the heavens is there. His Majesty has made it clear that our mission is to fight against the beyond the heavens in the Four Spirit Realms.

Therefore, you should come with me on this trip. It will be easier for you to enter the Celestial Realm within the Blood Bone Dao Court.

It has two meanings: one is to give a warning, and the other is to offer benefits.

The corresponding response is that now it's the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's turn to bring out Bifang to suppress the wild elephant.

Mang Xiang's life was saved by the Big Eater King, but the Big Eater King was strong enough to dare to use the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable under the Rakshasa of the fourth faction of the Immortal Alliance as one of his own.

If Lao Mang wants a future, he must abide by the rules.

There's no need to elaborate on the benefits offered; allowing Mangxiang to seek opportunities to enter the Celestial Realm within the Blood Bone Dao Court demonstrates the magnanimity of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

Now that things have come to this, Bifang means that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable must be respected.

Besides, there's nothing to feel wronged about.

In conclusion, under Bi Fang's strong pressure, the fact that Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and Mang Xiang joined forces was not entirely a bad thing for Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

The cakes from the Four Spirit Realms are delicious, but it would be slow for Jade Palace Immortal Venerable to eat them all by himself.

First, let's hunt together with the elephant, then we'll all be full, and we can find another opportunity to kill it later.

"You'll allow me to return to the Purple Mansion Realm right now?" Mang Xiang asked suspiciously, completely disbelieving the little bastard disciple's empty promise.

Unfortunately, both sides have a strong mutual trust that the other is inhuman.

In Mang Xiang's view, Wang Yulou had finally seized the opportunity to suppress him, and would certainly not let him get out of his control easily.

Even with Bi Fang's decree, Wang Yulou would most likely wait until he returns to the Golden Core stage before giving Mang Xiang the opportunity to return to the Purple Mansion, in order to ensure that Mang Xiang can be controlled by him.

It can only be said that Mang Xiang was suppressed for so long before he finally attained the Golden Core stage, and in the end, he lost some of his youthful vigor.

As the holder of the record for the fastest Golden Core in the Great Heaven and Earth, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's Golden Core Dao Fruit was achieved in one go, and the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's genius and sharpness were also full of potential.

Of course, after being tempered, the Immortal Venerable would no longer be harmed by such sharpness. He would still be cautious when necessary.

But he wasn't really worried that the elephant would dare to cause trouble.

The reason is simple: the Boluo Association and Bifang have joined forces, and as times change, they are moving towards a new trajectory.

No matter how brilliant Lao Mang was, he couldn't reverse this situation, and more importantly, he didn't dare to.

Given the grand scheme of the struggle for supremacy among top-tier Golden Core cultivators, the unique nature of the Four Spirit Realms, the special relationship with Mangxiang Jade Palace, and the complex situation of each individual's considerations for their own interests, Mangxiang had to admit defeat!
Previously, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable lacked sufficient strength and could only accelerate his ascent by leveraging the overall situation.

Now, the magnitude and intensity of the changes in the overall situation have exceeded the limits of what Mangxiang can bear. More importantly, there is also the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable who is wary of him and watching him closely. It is difficult for him to borrow any strength he wants.

What did Mangxiang do wrong?

No, it was just an accident and a change that overwhelmed this seeker of the Way, nothing more.

"Of course, I believe Master understands the importance of prioritizing the overall situation."

"If the Dao Lord of Wuji wins, none of us will have a future."

The moment the Sovereign appears, the sum of all possibilities and changes in all dimensions and evaluation systems, both conceptually and practically, will instantly transform into deathly stillness at an absolute speed.

The possibilities and changes in any dimension, any definition system, any evaluation system, and any value system will be determined by the supreme authority.

Therefore, while the situation is changing, it seems to still follow the long-standing survival rule of the strongest in the endless void—to do everything in their power, at all costs, to prevent the current number one from becoming the true supreme ruler.

"Alright, I'll accompany you!" In the end, Mangxiang chose to back down.

The situation is stronger than people; this is what it means for the situation to be stronger than people.
-
In the Blood Bone Dao Court, Immortal Venerable Jade Palace had just led Blood Loulan into the Cloud Mist Sect's territory when he received a telepathic message from Blood Bone Dao Ancestor.

"Wind and Earthly Fiend, come directly to me."

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable accepted the order with surprise, and then, with the somewhat nervous Blood Loulan, flew straight towards the palace complex in the center of the Dao Court Immortal Realm.

He was absolutely certain that Bloodbone couldn't possibly see that he had a problem.

Even if they realize they have a problem, they can still maintain their identity as "pure water" to avoid being suspected.

As for the Blood Loulan, also known as the Mangxiang, there's even less chance of a problem.

Fellow Daoist, have you heard of the Formless Great Dao?

Mang Xiang's self-created Acquired Great Dao has brought the power of change to a certain extreme. Don't underestimate Mang Xiang's current cultivation level. This formless Great Dao, which has never appeared in the Four Spirit Realms, can easily fool a mere native Golden Core cultivator.

As for whether the Blood Bone might be a hidden seed of another top-tier Golden Core cultivator, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is not worried.

If Blood Bone is a hidden agent, then Bifang and Boluo Society have already joined forces.

If the Blood Bone is a Golden Core from another world in the void, the probability is too low. It's like the path to immortality for immortals—it can be referenced and learned from, but it's not very useful.

Worrying endlessly about low-probability events will only hinder your spiritual progress.

Xue Gu is a very interesting cultivator, somewhat resembling King Chu.

In terms of appearance, he's just average, nothing special. He's just another cultivator with a unique aura.

The only difference was that he had the same aura of a bandit or calamity cultivator as King Chu.

Seeing Feng Di Sha and Xue Lou Lan enter together, Xue Gu's lips curled up slightly.

Another ambitious one. It's good that he's ambitious.

No matter what world it is, cultivators who reach a high position will always converge in some aspects of their mentality.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has always favored ambitious people with burning passion in their eyes, and Xue Gu is no exception.

"I've heard of your name before, Di Sha. Among all the cultivators in the world, those who practice water magic are always the most difficult to cultivate."

However, you quickly reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and even entered the Celestial Realm in the blink of an eye.

Everyone says the Cloud Mist Sect was lucky to produce a Black-haired grandson, but now it seems that the Dao Court was lucky to produce a Cloud Mist Sect.

"With you and Xiao Sun as two new Celestial Realm cultivators, our chances of winning the battle for the Spring have increased even further."

Xue Gu raised his hand, offered him a seat, and gave his comments, treating the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, who was visiting him for the first time, with great courtesy.

However, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable dared not sit directly. He and Mang Xiang respectfully kowtowed to Blood Bone Dao Ancestor for a long time before obediently getting up.

Well, Xue Gu is blessed to be so respectfully addressed by Immortal Venerable Mang Xiang and Immortal Venerable Yu Que. Tsk tsk.

In fact, the crux of the matter is that neither Jade Palace Immortal Venerable nor Wild Elephant Immortal Venerable regarded Blood Bone as a human being.
If these two good master and disciple had even a shred of respect for blood and bones, they wouldn't have knelt so without any psychological burden.

"Serving the Dao Court is the long-cherished wish of the Earthly Fiends. We beg the Dao Ancestor to give the Earthly Fiends a chance. The Earthly Fiends are willing to go to the front line and conquer Quanzhou for the Dao Court!"

Hey, it's the same old story, you're so good at singing high praises!

Mangxiang thought to himself.

He saw it all too clearly: if Xue Gu's skull contained even a tiny bit of brain, he would never send a newly-entered 'Earthly Fiend True Person' to the front lines.

Wang Yulou's high-profile actions are nothing more than using something that could never happen to express his loyalty—he's just trying to fool people!

"Haha, as long as you have the will, that's enough. You've just entered the Celestial Realm and you're still cultivating water magic. Related techniques and cultivation methods are very rare."

"First, we should slowly replenish our cultivation before seeking other things. However, Di Sha, what are your thoughts and preparations regarding the water-based cultivation of the Celestial Realm?"

Xue Loulan watched her lover with some nervousness, while he performed with great enthusiasm.

What Lao Mang was actually hoping was that Wang Yulou would encounter some difficulties, so that he could use his identity as Xue Loulan to make a breakthrough and thus leverage the power of Xue Gu, that big idiot, to balance the current power struggle between him and Wang Yulou.

It was a test, an unmistakable test. The Immortal Venerable understood what Blood Bone was asking, so after a moment's thought, he answered directly.

"Reporting to the Dao Ancestor, when the Earthly Fiends joined the Cloud Mist Sect, they followed the path of exploring the Pure Water Secret Realm."

In the Pure Water Secret Realm, I received some of the teachings of the Pure Water Immortal, which is why I am where I am today.

As for cultivation beyond the Celestial Realm, those inheritances do not include it, therefore…

What to do when they're watching us like hawks?
Let's throw some bones at the tiger to see just how hungry it is.

In the eyes of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and Wild Elephant Immortal Venerable, Blood Bone Dao Ancestor was nothing but a big fool, but that didn't affect his self-esteem—the Four Spirit Realms gave him that confidence.

For Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, the best way to cultivate at present is to rely on the Blood Bone Dao Court to hide away and steadily improve his cultivation as soon as possible.

So, let's just go with the flow. Xue Gu is only at the level of "trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a cat instead," so there's nothing to be afraid of.

"I see."

Blood Bone lowered his head, seemingly in thought, or perhaps simply in silence.

Mang Xiang, on the other hand, was quite disappointed.

"Have some backbone, show some spirit, fight back, torture Wang Yulou a bit, give me a chance."

Previously, it was Jade Palace Immortal Venerable who tortured Mang Xiang, but now, Mang Xiang is looking forward to Blood Bone Dao Ancestor torturing Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

As if hearing Mangxiang's thoughts, Xuegu raised his head, smiled, and pointed at Yuque Immortal Venerable.

He tapped the first button without saying a word, seemingly marveling at the good fortune of Feng Di Sha and Xiao Feng.

With a second tap, divine power suddenly erupted.

Dao Zu, who came from a bandit background, was a man of ideas and dared to act.

The boundless charm of the Four Spirit Realms has once again taught the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable a lesson.

"don't want."

When Xue Loulan spoke, she was actually reminding Xue Gu.

But she was too fast, reacting too quickly, too quickly, too quickly.

Nonsense, how could the Immortal Venerable Mangxiang not be fast?
You can laugh at the clown when the elephant is unlucky and fails, but you can't laugh at the elephant's weakness.

Xue Gu looked at Xue Loulan in disbelief. How could you react so quickly?
Realizing he had made a mistake by reacting too quickly, Mang Xiang felt a pang of anxiety and hurriedly continued.

"I did not do it on purpose."

Here, the conversation is between the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

However, it's too late.

The moment Blood Bone looked at Blood Loulan, a deep voice emanated from Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's sleeve.

It has nothing to do with Mang Xiang. Even if Mang Xiang doesn't remind him, and doesn't make a mistake intentionally or unintentionally, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable will still take action.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable cannot gamble on whether the blood and bone test is a genuine attack or not—losing means death. Therefore, the only option is to counterattack, and he must counterattack.

Counter with the water sounds of the Immortal Shell of the Half-Step Golden Immortal, the Water Immortal.
The "half-step Golden Immortal" level is the level defined by the Golden Core Immortal Venerables for the Golden Immortal level. It is the level defined by Jade Palace Immortal Venerable personally. The corresponding level is White Carp, the Water Drop Immortal Venerable, who has already entered a period of rapid improvement in strength.

The Immortal Shell Water Sound Golden Token contains the full power of the White Carp's natal magic weapon, the second-grade immortal artifact, the Dripping Water Immortal Shell. However, due to the inability to perfectly replicate it because of the support of the Great Dao, it can only unleash 70% of its power.

However, using 70% of the power of a half-step Golden Immortal, which is still 70% of the power of a half-step Golden Immortal in the Great Heaven and Earth, to attack Blood Bone is really a bit unfair.

But Xue Gu himself started this whole thing. He had a sudden idea and decided to launch a surprise attack on Feng Di Sha in order to test him.

So he tested the waters and got the result—he asked for a hammer and got one.

With one hand, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable activated the Immortal Shell Water Sound Golden Token, and with the other hand, he pulled the shrewish elephant into his arms—this was out of respect for Bifang.

Xiao Wang also wanted to kill Mang Xiang; he wanted it very much, thinking about it day and night, never forgetting it.

However, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable must obey Bi Fang's decree.

This is a crucial decision to preserve one's own potential, a core element of the Immortal Venerable's cultivation in grasping change and possibilities, and is an integral part of cultivation itself. There isn't much leeway for the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable to do as he pleases.

"you"

The Blood Bone people were dumbfounded.

He was indeed a little genius; his methods of testing were full of surprise.

He is now facing a situation that is both good and bad.

Good news, the test was successful; the Wind and Earthly Fiends were indeed problematic.

The bad news is that it's not just the Wind and Earthly Fiends that have problems, but also the Blood Loulan.

The second piece of bad news is that the Wind and Earthly Fiends not only have problems, but they are also very big, extremely big.
Before he could even utter the second word "blood and bone," his mouth was silenced by the Immortal Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's Immortal Shell Water Sound Golden Token.

To be precise, it wasn't that their mouths were shut up.

Gua Zhenren's Great Annihilation Sound destroys the physical body that resists living beings; it is an indiscriminate destructive divine power.

The little fish's senbei water sound has the effect of breaking the balance of the five elements of living beings, destroying those who are powerless to resist from the very concept of existence itself.

An absolute waterway attack that shatters the five elemental foundations of all living beings wherever the water sounds spread, and incidentally destroys their very existence.

Gua Zhenren's Great Extinction Immortal Sound is still at the level of killing people, while Xiaoyu's Immortal Shell Water Sound has reached the level of conceptual obliteration.

This is the power of the Great Dao!
In an instant, Xue Gu used a variety of defensive methods, from magical artifacts to supernatural powers, from precious pills to precious talismans.

But none of it worked. The magic weapon crumbled, the supernatural power dissipated, the precious pills were ineffective, and the precious talisman turned to ash.

In the end, even Blood Bone himself turned into exploding ashes.

At the very last moment, Blood Bone's eyes were filled with confusion. He couldn't understand how his mere probing had led to such an outcome.

They died as easily as a feather being burned away, so lightly, so hastily, so ridiculously.

That's so unfair! Why don't you try to pull things apart?

This was Xue Gu's last distracting thought, but under the onslaught of Xianbei Shuiyin, all his distracting thoughts scattered throughout the world were also wiped away.

"Stop! Stop! Wang Yulou!"

Mang Xiang is really having a hard time keeping up; things are developing too fast.

With Xue Gu dead, not only will he be unable to use Xue Gu to balance his power struggle with Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, but their cultivation paths in this realm will also be completely altered.

The ethereal sounds of the immortal shells spread indiscriminately throughout the Blood Bone Dao Court. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable absorbed the spiritual energy and magical power dissipated by the deceased cultivators and spoke with some emotion.

"It can't stop; this is the little fish's supernatural power, and I can't control it."

Master, cultivation, cultivation, it's truly fascinating. Tell me, are we now heading in a direction we never expected?"

Even though the Blood Bone Dao Ancestor, who had cultivated for six thousand years, was a native Golden Core cultivator of the Four Spirit Realms and his strength was not as high as the average level of Golden Core cultivators of the same seniority in the Great Heaven and Earth, he still died without any resistance under Xiaoyu's supernatural powers.

At this moment, standing before the land of blood and bones, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable gained an even deeper understanding of cultivation.

In the world of cultivation, cultivators pursue great power and transcendence in order to gain a certain sense of self-construction. This process of pursuing higher cultivation, longer lifespan, and greater strength is very fulfilling and rewarding.

But now that we've accepted these rules, we must face the reality that those old-timers also enjoy these rules.

A six-thousand-year-old Golden Core is as fragile as a piece of paper compared to a ten-thousand-year-old Golden Core or a Golden Core that rapidly increases in strength on the path to becoming a Golden Immortal. This is yet another manifestation of the 'reality of the rules'.

If small fish are already so terrifying, what about Cangshan? What about Rakshasa? What about Water Venerable and Bifang?

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable pondered, "The road ahead is long and arduous; we must proceed with caution and shrewdness."

Are all cultivators in the Four Spirit Realms sick? Are they all sick?

Instead of answering Wang Yulou's question, Mang Xiang, somewhat defensively, began to curse Xue Gu.

Why did you suddenly make a move to test me?

I hoped you'd be more energetic, but you look like a spirited young man from the Golden Core realm... Damn!

Xiao Wang is a bit of a scoundrel, a bit selfish, a bit ruthless, a bit scheming, a bit quick to betray, and a bit obviously fence-sitter. But since he's willing to cooperate with you, why do you have to keep trying to find out the truth?
is it necessary?

They're all seasoned veterans in the cultivation world. No matter how they cooperate or with whom they cooperate, they should fully understand that none of them are innocent or naive.

Even if you try to test it with your blood and bones, you will not get any good results!

It's good enough that you can get married. Why bother checking hotel check-in records, medical records, chat logs, transfer records, online shopping records, loan records, credit records, and family history of hereditary diseases? If you find anything wrong, aren't you just asking for trouble?

Blood and bones are just asking for trouble.

Idiot!

It's not that Mangxiang was impatient. The current situation is already difficult (the Four Spirit Realms are weak but still have strength, but both Immortal Venerables are very confident and have a strong overall presence). Immortal Venerable Yuque and Immortal Venerable Mangxiang have found a way to break the deadlock.

In the process of this good teacher and student making promises to each other, the two have already borrowed almost all of their future victory.

You've already won before you've even won, and you'll win sooner or later—don't laugh, this is the best state of mind, full of hope.

But Xue Gu suddenly erupted like a volcano, defecating a large, smelly lump.

It even landed precisely on the faces of Immortal Venerable Mangxiang and Immortal Venerable Yuque, and in doing so, it also made itself stink.

Pure idiot!
"It's hard to say, but cultivators in this world have a strange confidence and reliance on combat."

The harsh living environment fostered this kind of atmosphere, often leading to a rough and straightforward approach to things.

Jade Palace Immortal shook his head, feeling helpless, but since things had come to this point, he still had to move forward.

Qingrui, Qingrui, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable will never forget Qingrui's teachings in this lifetime.

Mang Xiang wanted to explode in silence, but he couldn't unleash it on Jade Palace Immortal Venerable. In the end, he could only speak with a sense of powerlessness.

"What should we do now?"

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable glanced in the direction of Spring Spring Island and said.

"Let's go, the Four Spirit Realms are vast enough. Spring Spring Island, ah, I'll come back for it in the future!"

This pair of lively master and apprentice are truly planning out their future victories in the process of making empty promises to each other.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's plan is to use the Four Courts' Contest for Springs to reveal the possible identity of the Immortal Pendant, and incidentally, to bring Spring Spring Island under his control.

Next, relying on the spiritual energy of spring water in Quanzhou, he will increase his cultivation speed and then seek to rise to the position of the Water Dao Ancestor as the Pure Water after helping the cultivators of the Four Spirit Realms to cultivate the Outer Heaven and gain their status and recognition.

If this path of cultivation continues, even if Jade Palace Immortal Venerable doesn't dare say he's guaranteed victory, he still has at least a 70-80% chance of winning.

Unfortunately, they encountered the Blood Bone, who launched a sneak attack. Perhaps this is the allure of the cultivation world.

Freed from the protection and constraints of the system, the potential for unbridled growth is reshaping the underlying code of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable as a great cultivator.

The immortal who belongs to the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable of the Immortal Alliance is gradually taking a backseat to the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

He needs to find the fastest way to grow amidst the upheavals, so that he can regain his position as the Golden Core cultivator with greater dominance and expected potential.

"Where are you going? Besides, you used the White Carp's supernatural powers. If the people from the Outer Heavens notice, you will be exposed."

Yu Lou, we have come to the Four Spirit Realms with a mission. The seniors of the Great Heaven and Earth need us to produce results.

"Without the support of the Blood Bone Dao Court, we will face many difficulties," Mang Xiang analyzed.

"My dear master, are you ever afraid of difficulties?"

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable summoned the black dragon and asked with a slightly teasing tone.

Although the Blood Bone incident caused a stir, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's mindset was actually quite good.

How can one possibly achieve perfect success and become a revered ancestor through spiritual practice?
If there are difficulties, just overcome them!
The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable within the Great Heaven and Earth is obsequious, but the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in the Four Spirit Realms dares to strike hard!

One word, do it!

"Yu Lou, what's so difficult about that? It's not a problem. Forget it, where do we go now?"

Mang Xiang had a thousand words to say, but in the end, they all turned into a smile.

Disaster?
It's none of your business!

After ten thousand years of cultivation, he attained the Golden Elixir of Tao. How many difficulties had he overcome?
What are these minor difficulties in the Four Spirit Realms?
If even Wang Yulou isn't afraid, wouldn't I be ridiculed by Wang Yulou in his heart if I were?
Lao Mang is a real man, and real men have pride.

Despite being repeatedly pressured and questioned, Lao Mang still believed that he had the ability, the opportunity, and the certainty to defeat Wang Yulou again and take back everything that belonged to him.

You ask why Mangxiang is so confident?
The reason is simple: those who achieve enlightenment in this vast world, without this kind of spirit, would never reach the Golden Core stage!
I will soar to the ninth heaven, confident in my cultivation for ten thousand years!
"Liezhou, Houpu Daoting, what are you standing there for? Black Dragon, move!"

Wang Yulou kicked the still-dazed Black Dragon and urged it on.

"No, Master, what did she call you?"

The black dragon was still somewhat bewildered; there was no way around it, the world of cultivation was far too complex.

"Wang Yulou, hahaha, this is my master, the Mangxiang Immortal Venerable. Let's go, let's not waste time."

Upon hearing the name Mangxiang and seeing the beautiful Xueloulan, the Black Dragon trembled all over.

"Yu Lou, you shouldn't ride a black dragon; it's too ostentatious."

We should be confident, but not to the point of arrogance.

Using this magical talisman, we can first travel ten thousand miles underground, and then use the demonic beasts of the Four Spirit Realms as our mounts.

Let's gather information as we go, take it slow.

Mang Xiang had heard of Houpu Daoting and knew that Wang Yulou's mount, the black dragon Xiao Hei, had its Purple Mansion opened by a precious pill given to it by Zhuzhao. Mang Xiang even knew this, which showed his master's care for his disciple.

Upon hearing Lao Mang's reminder, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was taken aback.

In that instant, they actually seemed like a true master and disciple.

Like a typical master-disciple relationship in the world of cultivation, Mang Xiang seemed like a master, reminding Xiao Wang, "Hey kid, you can't be too flashy, you have to keep a low profile."

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable didn't say much. He accepted the magical talisman provided by Mang Xiang, and then pulled Xue Loulan into the ground.

The power of the Immortal Shell Water Sound Divine Might was so great that the area within hundreds of miles of the Blood Bone Dao Court was turned into a dead zone, with spiritual energy in chaos and earth veins collapsing. Normally, it would be impossible to use earth escape.

But the Supernatural Power Talisman itself is not something in the 'normal' sense. This thing is supernatural power, a powerful spell as strong as a god.

Just as the water sound of the immortal shell carries the power of the Great Dao and can turn the Blood Bone Dao Ancestor to ashes in one move, the escape talisman of the supernatural level can also play an excellent role in the escape technique in an environment where it is impossible to use earth escape.

With the blessing of the magical talisman, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable pulled Blood Loulan along as they swiftly traversed the underground.

Behind them lay the Blood Bone Dao Court, which had already been destroyed, as well as the other three Dao Courts that had been alerted and were also involved in the struggle for the Spring.

But the immortal never looked back at the explosion.

Even though this move might attract the attention of the Hundred-Handed Dao Ancestor and the Immortal Pendant True Man, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable remains unafraid.

After all, even Bifang, the strongest being in the Great Heaven and Earth, believed that he could achieve great things in the Four Spirit Realms.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable himself was naturally confident.

Losing one round, two rounds, or ten rounds doesn't matter that much.

The overall situation is still uncertain, but the Immortal Venerable is confident of victory!
Once he returns to his Purple Mansion strength, he will be able to withstand the pressure of the Blood Bone test. If he returns to his Immortal Venerable strength, the situation will only be easier to resolve.
-
On the enormous 'ruins' left by Shuiyin, the Hundred-Handed Centipede, Murong Bird, and Zhisha, the three Dao Ancestors, all stood in mid-air with tense expressions.

The sound of the senbei water may not sound powerful, but it is indeed the power of a half-step Golden Immortal.

There are only so many Golden Core cultivators in the Four Spirit Realms, and in Jinzhou, where the Blood Bone Dao Court is located, the number of Dao Ancestors is even more limited.

Such powerful supernatural abilities are used by even fewer people.

"I will not contend for Quanzhou in spring, my two fellow Daoists, you are ruthless enough!"

After uttering a harsh remark, Zhi Sha returned directly to his dojo.

There's nothing we can do; we're simply not as strong as them, we have to accept that.

The fact that Xuegu was completely destroyed, leaving not even a trace of his body, was a terrifying story in Zhisha's eyes.

"Hundred Hands, what exactly happened? Did you ambush Blood Bone?"

Murong Daozu, who had transformed into a bird, looked like a little child. Judging by his appearance, he was even younger than Danri, who looked like a little girl. However, when he asked questions, he was very dignified and imposing.

The Hundred-Handed Dao Ancestor is different. It has no form at all and looks like a giant centipede. Its body is filled with powerful magical energy, and its shell reflects mysterious light and shadow. It looks very nourishing.

If Bifang came to the Four Spirit Realms, the Hundred Hands would probably become Bifang's most delicious snack—a big bird eating a centipede, just right.

"If I say it wasn't me, would you believe me?"

The centipede's hundred legs thrashed in the air, offering a somewhat feeble explanation.

"Heh, Quanzhou, you and I will each have half, or I'll form an alliance with Zhisha!" Murong Niao declared, offering half, his threat quite direct.

Victory has complex dimensions; Murong Niao needs to achieve a complete victory, not just a victory for her and Bai Shou's alliance.

What was originally a two-on-two confrontation quickly turned into a love triangle after Blood Bone's death.

The centipede remained silent for a long time.

After communicating with Huanpei, the special envoy of the Wuji Dao Master who was not present, it gave a reply.

“Yes, the territory of Blood and Bone will be divided equally among the three of us.”

Let's stop here. We've been playing for so many years, it's time for a break.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's bold judgment was correct; the Immortal Pendant was none other than Huanpei, the former Palace Master of the Boundless Palace in the Outer Heavens!

It did not die, but was sent by the Wuji Dao Lord, who was striving for supremacy, to the Four Spirit Realms, which were being watched by many, to assist and accelerate its final sprint.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable made numerous decisions and judgments, and amidst various failures and unexpected events, there were many correct and successful ones.

You can't just say that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is unworthy of being an Immortal Venerable, or that he's incompetent, only when he becomes a loser and a clown!
Houpu Daoting is located in Liezhou, which is far from Jinzhou.

After traveling thousands of miles underground, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and Wild Elephant Immortal Venerable arrived on the ground.

He found a few camels and pretended to be a wandering monk on his journey.

They know everything about shady repairmen.

but
"My dear master, is it really necessary for you to continue to maintain the appearance of a female cultivator?" Wang Yulou asked speechlessly.

Old Mang might have some serious illness.

He no longer needed to pretend to be Blood Loulan, but he still did not revert to his original form. Instead, he transformed into the appearance of a beautiful female cultivator.

Moreover, its appearance is quite bizarre.

Zhou Yingxi's eyes, Bai Xiaoyu's cheeks, Jin Mingdu's beauty, and Qin Churan's figure.
This behavior was utterly despicable and truly disgusted the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

“Hey, don’t call me Master, just call me Fellow Daoist Mingxiu. If I transform into a female cultivator, we’ll be a man and a woman, and we’ll be less noticeable.”

Lao Mang, no, 'Mingxiu' replied seriously.

Cultivation is a process of constantly breaking through one's own limits. In front of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, Mang Xiang was severely beaten and almost killed by Wang Yulou because of his insistence on certain things.

Faced with the Jade Palace Immortal's murderous intent, Mang Xiang struggled and offered reasons, but still could not shake the Jade Palace Immortal's killing intent. In the end, he was saved by Bi Fang.

These are lessons, much like encountering a terrible storm.

Mangxiang is also a seeker of the Way and a climber; he will also grow.

From his perspective, transforming into a female cultivator and constantly extending goodwill to Wang Yulou might not be effective, but this 'tactical maneuver' was correct.

This is enough.

The difference between doing the right thing and doing 'what seems right' is the key to the growth and reflection of the Immortal Venerable Mangxiang.

Whether it's a man or a woman doesn't matter.

Wang Yulou's evaluation and opinions, as well as those of other unrelated people, are not important.

The important thing is to keep going with a higher success rate, even if it's the highest possible success rate.

This is the spirit of a cultivator, the spirit of a pursuer of the Dao, the spirit of a celestial being.

Instead of shrinking back at the last minute, which led to being caught by the Jade Palace Immortal and nearly dying—Mang Xiang himself felt incredibly foolish when he recalled his hesitant behavior at the time.

So stupid!
"Can't you try something different?"

Wang Yulou didn't want to think about it too much; he simply felt disgusted.

Old Mang, you really know how to do things!

"This is just fine, hahaha."

Mang Xiang thought that Wang Yulou did care after all, and that was enough.

Just as Shenguang transformed into a goddess when he met Wang Yulou, Mangxiang did the same thing at this moment.

So, is Shen Guang, who can easily grasp the meaning and purpose of actions, and who can disguise himself as a female cultivator to seduce Wang Yulou, who is still in the Foundation Establishment stage, really a clown?
No, he simply had no choice. From beginning to end, Shenguang had very few options.

Many things can only be seen clearly when we step back and stand at a higher level.

Shenguang's fate was never in his own hands.

The fate of Mangxiang and Wang Yulou, at least for this moment, is in their own hands within the Four Spirit Realms.

"Hey"

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable let out a long sigh and did not continue to try to ask Mang Xiang to do anything.

It's not that I accepted it, much less that I fell in love with it.

It's unnecessary; let Lao Mang do whatever he wants.

The fear and importance that the elephant showed was itself a form of encouragement to the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

"What are you sighing about? I told you long ago, if you and I join forces, we can easily dominate the Four Spirit Realms. There's nothing to worry about."

Mang Xiang, feigning ignorance of what Yu Que Immortal was sighing about, pretended to care about him—though, of course, this only disgusted Yu Que Immortal.

Wang Yulou didn't speak, but his expression wasn't very pleasant.

On the crimson sand dunes of the Four Spirit Realms, camel caravans moved slowly forward, their camel bells jingling.

Despite being mortal enemies, this unlikely master and disciple somehow managed to create an absurd sense of 'taking their beloved along for a journey to the ends of the earth'.

Having cultivated immortality for over two hundred years, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has gradually come to take a detached view of countless things.

Judging from the changes and improvements in this ability, he has already reached the other side of transcendence. However, at this level, the other side is somewhat crowded with people.

We still have to keep moving forward.
