Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 439 The Entanglement of True Monarchs
"The True Martial Subduing Demon Scripture encompasses everything and is not limited to techniques of killing and warfare."

Xu Yunfan's voice, illuminated by the starlight, carried the sound of metal and stone: "His fist techniques can draw upon the power of the Big Dipper to transform into the true form of Xuanwu, his palm techniques subtly correspond to the changes of the four symbols, his footwork can connect with the earth's veins, and his sword techniques directly point to the Taiyin Soul-Slaying Path. The True Martial Subduing Demon Sword Technique can be considered the Path of Immortal Swords."

As he spoke, a wisp of magical power emanated from his fingertips, evolving continuously with his explanation. Sometimes it transformed into a demon-suppressing seal with a tortoise and snake intertwined, and sometimes it became a calculation disc of the twenty-eight constellations rotating.

The old monsters could clearly see that the starlight contained cloud and mist talismans that obscured the secrets of heaven, as well as fierce patterns that could summon thunder and fire.

"The Way of Zhenwu is to combine strength and gentleness."

Xu Yunfan suddenly pointed his fingers together to form a sword, and his magical power abruptly contracted into a three-foot-long green blade. "It can subdue demons and protect the righteous path with strength, and nurture life with gentleness."

The sword tip turned and transformed into sweet dew, causing the decaying joints of the crowd to crack like new buds sprouting.

After the explanation was completed and everyone's questions were answered, the moon was already high in the sky.

Xu Yunfan did not return to his cave, but instead rode a streak of light straight towards Baiyue Peak.

When the streaking light swept past the seventy-two spiritual waterfalls, the patrolling mountain cranes were so startled that they all gave way.

While Baiyue Zhenren was refining the "Ten Thousand Mountains True Form Diagram" on the summit, he saw the Xuanwu escape light breaking through the air. When he sent out a wisp of his divine sense to report an important matter, his eyes flickered slightly, and he probably guessed the purpose of the other party's visit.

The hand seals that Master Baiyue had been forming between his fingers had not yet dissipated when the True Form Diagram of Ten Thousand Mountains slowly rolled up in mid-air.

He looked up at Xu Yunfan, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Junior Brother Xu, your visit so late at night, has something happened?"

Even if that old fox can't deduce it, he can at least guess the general idea.

Xu Yunfan cursed inwardly, then bowed respectfully, saying, "Senior Brother Chu, I was ambushed by Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Primordial Sect in the Divine Martial Realm."

He flipped his palm and summoned the black banner. The residual blood and evil aura on the banner immediately spread throughout the hall, and hundreds of wronged souls and demons tumbled endlessly on the banner, causing the black aura to billow.

Seeing this, Master Chu Chengnan of the Hundred Mountains showed a hint of approval. This Junior Brother Xu was extremely adaptable. In just a few days, he had already cultivated a Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

He should be a disciple of my Yuanshi Sect.

If True Monarch hadn't calculated the other party's background and confirmed that he was indeed a native of the Divine Martial Realm, he would have thought he was a reincarnation of a Foundation Establishment True Person from the Demonic Sect.

After all, the materials for the Myriad Souls Banner are rare, and if it is properly refined, it may very well become a magical treasure that can blot out the sky in the future.

Almost every disciple of the Yuanshi Sect would try to refine it.

We are all from the Yuanshi Sect, so this kind of thing is already commonplace.

Xu Yunfan remained expressionless, shook the black banner, and while quickly gathering the black energy, released a few wisps of the purple-robed immortal's aura.

That's all; he reduced everyone to ashes.

Sensing these wisps of energy, Master Baiyue frowned slightly, and suddenly a three-inch golden light burst forth from his fingertips.

He looked at Xu Yunfan.

After receiving Xu Yunfan's nod, the golden light coiled around the black banner like a serpent, outlining seven ferocious ghost faces on the banner's surface.

"No, there's something hidden here."

As if he had thought of something, Master Baiyue suddenly fell silent and only sneered.

"What a clever trick of substitution!"

He cast a soundproof spell with hand seals and set up multiple restrictive formations to ensure complete isolation and prevent any intrusion of heavenly secrets. Then he asked, "Tell me in detail, did that Foundation Establishment cultivator use any special techniques?"

Xu Yunfan's divine sense stirred slightly, and a battle scene immediately appeared in the black banner: "When that person unleashed the Blood River Formation, he crushed a jade pendant engraved with twin lotus flowers."

This is true. When the purple-robed Foundation Establishment cultivator said that the True Lord had harmed him, a jade pendant in his hand shattered.

"A twin lotus?!"

Master Baiyue's expression quickly turned serious.

He took a deep breath, and the three golden talismans that flew out of his sleeve spontaneously combusted in mid-air: "This matter must be reported to the True Lord immediately! This is not something we can handle. It seems that the other party is preparing to make a move."

Xu Yunfan's eyes flickered slightly. The expression on Baiyue Zhenren's face was enough to show that the other party knew that someone had invaded the Divine Martial Realm. This was a test, and also a pledge of allegiance.

A golden talisman flew from Master Baiyue's sleeve. "This matter must be reported to True Lord Qingyuan immediately!"

The moment the golden talisman burned out, the sea of ​​clouds at the summit suddenly parted to both sides.

A wisp of pure energy descended from the heavens, condensing in the air into the illusory image of jade steps and a red-painted platform.

The moment Xu Yunfan stepped onto the jade steps, the surrounding scenery changed drastically, and he found himself in the "Qingyuan Immortal Palace" floating above the sea of ​​clouds.

Looking up, there was a glazed plaque above the celestial palace, inscribed with the words "Qingyuan Miaodao Chengyun Xuanqiong Zhenjun".

The glazed tiles of the main hall of the Immortal Palace shimmered with the clear light of heaven and earth.

The Taoist priest in the green robe, who sat upright in the hall, slowly opened his eyes. A red dot between his eyebrows made the entire hall flicker.

After entering the Immortal Palace with Master Baiyue, Xu Yunfan dared not be negligent.

"Disciple pays respects to True Lord Qingyuan."

As Xu Yunfan performed the ceremony, he noticed that the "Cheng Yun Lamp" in front of the True Lord's altar, which had been burning for three thousand years, now had a bluish-black flame.

A priceless treasure!
Xu Yunfan's heart stirred slightly. The extraordinary light burning in the lamp, though only glanced at quickly, stirred a sense of profound mystery within him.

Qingyuan Zhenjun nodded slightly.

"Recount the details of the attack."

Just as Xu Yunfan was talking about the Foundation Establishment cultivator refined within the Blood Banner, a clear sound of a jade chime suddenly rang out in the hall.

A "Dongxuan Mirror" flew out from Zhenjun's sleeve, its light reflecting the remaining malevolent aura of the blood banner in every detail.

"This is not the way of the Yuanmo Sect; it's just self-deception."

Finally, as if he had thought of something, he chuckled softly: "It seems like it was left behind on purpose."

Qingyuan Zhenjun's smile grew colder.

He made a hand gesture to activate the mirror's light, and the pure, misty air surrounding the palace ceiling began to rotate accordingly.

"The secrets of heaven have been obscured."

Suddenly, the mirror surface cracked open with spiderweb-like fissures.

Xu Yunfan's pupils contracted sharply. He clearly saw half of a woman's face flash through the crack, and the cinnabar mole between her eyebrows was exactly the same as that of Qingyuan Zhenjun.

"It is indeed her."

Qingyuan Zhenjun's expression was complicated. He sighed and flicked his sleeve to repair the treasure mirror. "That vile woman Jiuyuan has once again used the Samsara Mirror to disrupt the heavenly secrets."

Seeing the puzzled look on Xu Yunfan's face, Zhenjun said meaningfully, "Do you know why my Daoist name contains the words 'Chengyun' (承运)?"

Seeing this, Master Baiyue, who was standing to the side, naturally didn't say a word, clearly knowing the inside story.

"Back then, Jiuyuan and I studied the Taiyi Golden Flower Secret together, using the harmony of dragon and tiger yin and yang. It was just a mutually beneficial dual cultivation, but she insisted on refining that damn marriage book."

After uttering only one grumbling remark, Qingyuan Zhenjun impatiently stopped.

Xu Yunfan naturally dared not interrupt, as this was the other party's private matter, and a brief sentence naturally stirred up a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Nine Abyss.

There is only one person in the Yuanshi Sect who holds this title, and he is called the Nine Abyss Mysterious Demon Cave-Clearing True Lord.

The love triangle between the two True Lords left him feeling both amused and exasperated.

The next instant, an overwhelming surge of pure and powerful energy poured into Xu Yunfan's head, causing the True Martial power in his Qi Sea to boil instantly, and the Xuanwu phantom materialized into a physical form behind him.
