Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 661 Yu

Ren Hai, the Water Palace.

Within the bronze doors of the main hall, there were shifting lights and thunder. Upon entering, one would see two people standing in the dark hall: an old monk in a heavy black robe and a woman in a white butterfly robe.

On the main seat carved from black jade, there was another person, with dragon aura faintly visible, and triangular serpentine eyes scanning down.

"Now, the South China Sea, from Zhuya in the north to Heitang in the west, is theoretically under the jurisdiction of my palace. However, the sea area is vast and cannot be completely controlled. There are also several immortal sects in the area, such as Qinghong and Ciliu."

"Qinghong Daoist is located in the southwest of Tianchi. His lineage is ancient and he is untouched by worldly affairs. What do you think should be done with him?"

Xu Xuan had explained the situation in the South China Sea in detail, including the Azure Leaf Sky, the Jia Wood Dispute, and the Pan Sea Eastern Azure Sea.

Hou Ni, standing below, had a slightly somber expression, as if he had remembered something. He stepped forward, bowed, and said:
"Your Majesty, this path should be the Donghua Dao lineage, a branch of Qingyuan."

“In the past, the ancient immortal Jian Sui had many disciples, whose Daoist names were Qing. Among them was one who cultivated the Pure Qi and was honored with the title Qingxu. He established his Dao in Nanshan and should be the origin of the Qinghong Dao.”

“In the past, our family received the Dao from the first master of Shaoyang, and later received guidance from a Daoist. In terms of reasoning, we can be considered close to the Donghua lineage.”

Hou Ni's expression darkened slightly, and he continued:
"Your Majesty, do not underestimate this opportunity. Now that Panhai has been re-established and Dongcang has established a sect, it may be part of the Donghua lineage's plan. You should not disrespect the Qinghong lineage; it can be used as an aid."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xuan recalled the scene when he had mistakenly entered the Sea of ​​Years Wood, and seemed to understand something.

At that time, the True Person Bixi said that Mingze was connected to her Dao. Now it seems that the connection is in the Donghua Dao lineage, while Qinghong and Shangxiao were originally parallel Dao lineages.

It's even possible that the Bixi True Person is of the same generation as the Shangxiao Sect Master, Bimo.

"That's only right. This matter will be left to you, Hou Ni, to handle. Take good care of these relationships."

After getting to know Hou Ni, Xu Xuan had an excellent impression of him.

This Earth Demon King was erudite and thoughtful. Even setting aside his cultivation and formations, he was extremely useful as a strategist. He handled matters flawlessly and was very particular about etiquette.

"There is another lineage that happens to be blocking the main road into the Western Sea. It must be dealt with, but the situation of this lineage is not very clear, and we do not know its origins or background."

Xu Xuan was not reckless. Although Tianchi's current resources were enough to allow it to sweep through without any scruples, it was still better to act cautiously.

"Words and phrases".

Hou Ni pondered for a moment, his face creased with wrinkles and his brows furrowed. After a short while, he finally spoke:

"In ancient times, the way of Kan Shui was mostly to make it flow. There should be a lineage of Daoist tradition in Da Li that has been incorporated into the lineage of Mu Wu Mountain. The great masters of the Kan Shui way have disappeared. There is no need to worry about Ci Liu Mountain. Just pay attention to the movements of Li Song and Mu Wu."

Beside her, a golden light shone, and Lizhu stepped forward, respectfully saying:
"Your Majesty, this servant is willing to accept a decree and send it to Ci Liu. If he is willing to be governed, that would be best. If not, it would still allow me to probe his background. [Jade Mountain Inclined] has the effect of making people drunk and losing their composure. I will select a cultivator from the mountains to question and then I will know the situation."

"Very well, I'll leave this matter to you."

Xu Xuan had never expected the other party to have this ability, which was a pleasant surprise. The ability to manipulate the mind was extremely rare, and could be considered one of the few in the world today.

'If Xin Jin is perfected, it will complete the direct combat aspect, making it a lineage with many ingenious uses.'

He looked down at the glass beads and continued:
"There's no need for direct confrontation. Just probe the foundation of Ci Liushan. His Kan Water is excessive, making him quite formidable in combat at the Zifu stage. And what you cultivate is—"

Xu Xuan was not optimistic about Li Zhu's combat abilities. He believed that she possessed a spiritual artifact bestowed by the Dragon Court, but her cultivation lineage was still lacking.

"Your Majesty need not worry. Geng metal is good at being refined by fire, and Xin metal is good at being filled by water. Geng metal is good at changing, like the waxing and waning of the moon, while Xin metal is good at keeping secrets, like the moon hiding its secrets."

Lizhu spoke leisurely, and the white butterflies on her robes seemed to be fluttering and radiating jade light.

"Although Xin metal is weak now, it still has many uses in dealing with Kan and Gui water. However, it cannot withstand excessive water like Ren and Han, and it is also afraid of the demonic pollution of water."

She had some confidence in herself. If it were a flood as large as Renhan, she would have no chance of resisting it. However, Kan represents rivers and streams, and Gui represents rain and dew ponds. It would be difficult to suppress Xin metal.

"If that's the case, then you can handle Ciliu Mountain in the west. You can start preparing now."

Xu Xuan was unwilling to delay, so he immediately gave the order, and His Highness's glass bead broke through the void and disappeared in an instant.

Hou Ni glanced back at the direction the glass bead had fled, then said:

“Your Majesty, this Lizhu is quite capable. Although her method of achieving supernatural powers is somewhat absurd, the cultivation technique she practices is not bad. It is a secret manual that my Liu Dongyan Dragon King obtained in the past.”

"In ancient times, both Geng and Xin were known for their transformations. Geng metal's transformations occurred in the human world, where metal and stone were used to forge weapons and weapons to replace the old and welcome the new. Xin metal's transformations occurred in lead, mercury, pearls, and jade, seeking a kind of immortal atmosphere of yin and yang transformation."

Although he didn't particularly like the glass bead, he still said a few words for it as a colleague.

"Her alchemy skills are quite profound, and even in the realm of immortality, she can be considered to have reached a high level."

Xu Xuan nodded slightly, knowing that Hou Ni's words were true.

Now it's a good time to see how things are going with the glass bead. If he can figure out Ci Liushan's background, then he can take action and wipe out the road to the West Sea in one fell swoop, firmly controlling it. "Where is that Ren Shui ancient treasure?"

Xu Xuan looked down and asked about the matter. He saw Hou Ni looking serious. Hou Ni took out a treasure box surrounded by shimmering light. Dragon energy surged inside, as if boundless Ren water was gathered within.

The treasure box floated in the air and slowly opened, revealing a black jade disc inside. It was divided into two sides. The front was carved with a dark moon and clouds, and the Weak Water flowing beneath the surface. The back was carved with the winter sun and cold currents, and the water freezing into ice.

“In ancient times, the Ren water was controlled by the two dragon lords of Mingze. At that time, although the Tianhui dragon lord was in a subordinate position, he received support from his elder brother and his power far exceeded that of an ordinary subordinate.”

Hou Ni spoke softly, then channeled his magic power to send the mystical disc to Xu Xuan.

"This is the [Great Weak Cold Plate], the fundamental artifact of the second great formation [Weak Sinking] in the Heavenly Pool. In terms of power, it is more terrifying than many spiritual treasures. It was refined by the Dragon Lord in the past."

He continued in a solemn tone:

"As long as Your Majesty sends this plate under the dragon pillar in the sea, the weakened and heavy formation can be restored. At that time, if the Purple Mansion enters, it will fall from the sky, and the Golden Core will have difficulty seeing the scene in the Heavenly Pool."

Xu Xuan's eyes lit up instantly; the artifact the other party had sent was exactly what he wanted.

Now that he is staying in Tianchi, he is much more careful in everything he does. After all, there is Yuanmu in the south and the Dragon Lord in the east. If these great men intend to spy, how can he stop them?

Once this powerful array is set up, the entire Heavenly Lake will be completely concealed, making things much easier.

He took the plate, and the moment he touched it, he felt his blood surge.

The radiance on the Xuanpan condensed into the shape of a dragon, churning between the waning moon and the winter sun. This dragon was entirely black, with horns like spirit jade, and scales growing on its neck. On both sides of its spine, there were long, pale blue feathers, like wings, stirring the water.

"Ikuha?"

Xu Xuan's tone was somewhat puzzled, but Hou Ni below replied:

"The ancient Ren water way originally obtained the Yu sound, but it was later damaged and was taken away by Gui water. It was the work of the True Lord of the First Way."

These words made Xu Xuan understand a lot. The purity and turbidity of Gui water were taken away by Kan, but the True Lord of the Beginning could still prove the Dao. Moreover, the Gui water Purple Mansion of this Dao was not weak in the battle. It was probably because of the reason that Yu Yin was taken away.

“Gui has the [Gathering Feather], which originally meant returning to the lakes and marshes. Now, even the great master of the First Dao has not shown any trace, which is probably unusual.”

Hou Ni's expression changed slightly, and he continued:
"The Five Virtues, in ancient times, were mostly manifested, possessing extraordinary power and formidable fighting skills. At that time, the Ren Water sect was as famous as the Han Water sect, but now..."

When it came to Dong Han, he dared not speak rashly and kept silent for the time being.

"You are in charge of setting up this [Great Weak Cold Plate]. Others do not understand formations, so you can prepare it now. If you have any questions, you can go and find Bo Chang."

Xu Xuan gently pushed the Xuan Disc back into the other party's hands, while Hou Ni obeyed the order to retreat and prepare to set up the formation.

There was no one else in the hall at this moment. Xu Xuan got up and slowly paced around.

Only then did he take out the mustard seed that Guangze had sent. When he opened it, he saw that there seemed to be a purple light surging inside. There were quite a few rare thunder spirit items, exuding an ancient aura. Some of them were even lost spirit items recorded in Ye Guang's inheritance.

There were a total of nine spiritual objects imbued with thunder, and Xu Xuan was quite familiar with the aura emanating from them, as they came from the North Sea.

"It seems that when the Ye Guang School was wiped out, I, Ming Ze, also benefited quite a bit. Is this considered profiting from someone else's misfortune?"

Xu Xuan's heart stirred slightly. He knew that the sword of the Void Dragon King had fallen into the Dragon Court, let alone anything else.

He searched again and found three more spiritual pills inside, one green, one white, and one red. They emitted the auras of Lesser Yang, Transformation Water, and Blood Qi, and seemed to be the Purple Mansion Great Pills that complemented each other, specially used to cultivate blood offspring.

Even the intentions of transforming water and blood qi within it were incredibly pure, untainted by demonic influence, clearly ancient and extremely precious, as they were already difficult to refine at that time.

"Guangze really went all out."

He had other thoughts at this moment. According to the information he had received from his subordinates, there was a separate immortal sect in Panhai, and even a Purple Peak Dragon King of the Jiamu lineage was in charge.

Although it is unknown where Tianyu Longjun trained Jiamu Zifu, the Dongcang Sect is currently in dire need of disciples.

This sect not only has a True Lord of Fruit Rank presiding over it, but also enjoys the legacy of the Heavenly Leaf Daoist lineage. It even has a territory comparable to the entire South China Sea, spanning millions of miles, and it takes a very long time for someone in the Purple Palace to travel through the Great Void.

Xu Xuan naturally wanted to contact this sect, but he was troubled by not having a proper title. He originally wanted to send a few demons to cultivate, but there were really no suitable and capable ones in Tianchi.

"If we have an heir, we can send him to this sect to cultivate. It won't conflict with the Thunderclap technique. It is the same lineage of the Heavenly Leaf Sect."

This is the most suitable option, as it would allow him to legitimately establish a relationship with Dongcang, and his offspring would inevitably achieve the Purple Mansion realm, perhaps even becoming the core of Dongcang in the future.

Given the current situation, the matter of offspring is indeed important, especially for demons.

With a thought, he stepped into the void and left the palace.
