At the age of one hundred, I inquired about the Dao, awakening the supreme spiritual root that shatt

The white jade palace faintly appeared in the world, magnificent and full of divine charm, shrouded in thousands of purple and gold rays.

All the cultivators in the secret realm whose eyes were filled with greed upon seeing this scene.

This sacred and awe-inspiring celestial palace brings people an overwhelming sense of awe!

Everyone present was agitated.

It was as if a deadly magic was hidden deep within the White Jade Heavenly Palace, constantly bewitching all living beings, making them utterly irresistible.

"That's the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace of the ancient Xuan Yang Sect! Could it be that the Palace Master is about to appear in the world?!"

"The Nine Heavens Profound Yang Sect! Legend has it that it was once the number one immortal sect in the Eastern Spirit Realm. The Nine Heavens Profound Palace must contain rare core inheritances and supreme treasures!"

"Hurry up, or you won't get a single benefit!"

In an instant, the entire Heavenly Ruins Secret Realm was in complete uproar.

Cultivators from all over the secret realm, regardless of distance, rushed towards the heavenly palace at the deepest part of the secret realm, each disregarding their own safety and using their fastest escape speed.

Above the palace atop the mountain, the divine light shone even brighter.

Ling Xiu's escape light vanished, and he stopped, looking up at the celestial palace. Such a magnificent sight stirred up a surge of overwhelming excitement in his heart.

He had originally planned to leave, but now he could no longer contain his emotions.

A pillar of light reaching to the heavens was surrounded by celestial charm, and ethereal celestial music lingered, each note bewitching the heart.

Anyone would find it hard to resist such temptation.

Ling Xiu leaped into the air, gazing at the ethereal and otherworldly White Jade Nine Heavens Mystic Palace. His soul trembled with excitement, and his expression grew increasingly exhilarated.

The Nine Heavens Mystic Palace is sure to offer boundless opportunities, but it is also a place where dangers converge. With the elites of the twelve major sects all flocking here, a fierce battle is inevitable.

But if he were to leave now, no one would notice him.

He already possessed the Thousand-Year Fire Yang Spirit Fruit and the Immortal Spirit Rain Pool Elixir, so his cultivation resources were already plentiful.

"The struggle for the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace is extremely dangerous. Forget it, I already have the Qiankun Mystic Gourd and am not short of cultivation resources. It would be best to escape as soon as possible while everyone is distracted!"

He suppressed his greed and made up his mind to leave.

hum!

The shrunken gourd around his neck suddenly trembled violently, its entire body becoming scalding hot.

Moreover, a subtle and elusive strange sensation emanated from the white jade palace atop the distant mountain peak, which resonated with the Qiankun Xuanhu from afar, sharing the same origin!

"Huh? What's going on!"

Ling Xiu was startled, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The Qiankun Xuanhu is an item left behind by my grandfather. Its origin is mysterious, and it is also his greatest hidden trump card.

At this moment, it resonated with the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace, clearly indicating that there was a force within the Heavenly Palace actively attracting the Mystic Gourd.

What is the reason behind this?

His original determination to leave was completely shaken, and all his caution, concerns, and desire to retreat vanished.

"If it can trigger the resonance of the Qiankun Xuanhu, there must be something with the same original aura inside the Jiutian Xuan Palace."

Although the sensation was faint, it was clearly the call of the Xuanhu's origin...

Ling Xiu gazed once more at the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace, its light radiant and boundless, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

Fortune favors the bold, and this matter involves the mysterious gourd of heaven and earth, making it worth the gamble.

"It seems we have no choice but to go, but we must be extremely cautious and never rashly force our way in. If we encounter someone we can't defeat, we must immediately retreat!"

brush!

With a flash of light around him, he concealed all his aura, sank into the ground, and vanished from the spot in an instant.

The closer one gets to the main peak, the more cultivators gather around, and the air is filled with a tense and murderous atmosphere, with everyone harboring murderous intent.

All the cultivators were prepared to fight for the treasure, and they were wary of each other, extremely vigilant.

Upon reaching the highest peak, the steep cliffs are as if carved by a knife and axe, majestic and magnificent, with divine light shooting straight into the sky, containing immense power.

Only when you get close to the white jade steps can you see clearly that the steps are semi-transparent, flowing with a shimmering light, and lead all the way to the Nine Heavens Mysterious Palace.

The entire celestial palace was firmly enveloped by seven-colored divine light, radiating an imposing and unbreakable pressure.

The cultivators who come here are all at least at the Condensation Realm, and the disciples of the twelve major sects make up the majority of them.

Instead of immediately engaging in combat, the group, led by the disciples of each sect, unleashed various offensive magical weapons and bombarded the seven-colored divine light shield together.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The spiritual light surged wildly, energy ripples spread out in layers, and explosions echoed across the sky.

Countless powerful attacks collided, creating a breathtaking and awe-inspiring scene.

But the seven-colored divine light only rippled a few times before all the fierce attacks were completely dissolved.

The protective barrier of the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace remained as stable as a rock, without swaying an inch!

The Heavenly Palace's protective barrier is so sturdy that attempting to break through it by force is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Ling Xiu mingled among the crowd, observing quietly, deeply shocked.

He did not make a move, but secretly preserved his true essence.

After observing for a while, he quickly noticed something amiss.

The cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Condensation Realm, led by various sects, were incredibly powerful. Each of them wielded a top-grade Xuan-rank magic weapon, possessing astonishing combat strength that was in no way inferior to cultivators at the early stage of the Profound Realm.

This group of cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Condensation Realm were the main force of the attack, leading their disciples to form a terrifying offensive that bombarded the protective barrier in turn.

Ling Xiuzheng observed secretly as a sweet and alluring fragrance wafted in on the breeze.

He looked up and immediately spotted that familiar figure.

Mu Yinxue, the Holy Maiden of the Divine Demon Sect.

"Li Xiuyuan, you're here too."

Mu Yinxue's face was covered by a light veil, revealing her bright and captivating eyes, with a faint smile playing at the corners of her gaze.

"I knew it. Fellow Daoist Li would not be able to resist the temptation of the Heavenly Palace and has indeed come here."

Ling Xiu looked at her, remaining wary, and spoke calmly.

"I just came here to see the magnificent view of the Heavenly Palace. Such a spectacular sight is definitely not to be missed."

"Miss Yinxue, you've come to find me specifically; could it be that you have other plans?"

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Li is very perceptive. How about we join forces again?"

Mu Yinxue looked at him with a captivating smile, exuding a mesmerizing charm.

"This group of people only knows how to launch a strong attack, but they don't know that this divine light shield has extremely strong defensive power. Even if they work together to break it, it will take at least several days, wasting a lot of true essence and mental energy, which is not worth the loss."

I just noticed a weak point in the shield; we can start by attacking that point.

Mu Yinxue lowered her voice, leaned close to Ling Xiu's ear, and breathed softly.

"We'll go around to the back of the mountain and sneak in through a side entrance!"

She glanced around and subtly gestured to the people in the distance with her eyes.

"Look, Jiang Yuzhe of the Heavenly Dao Sect, Murong Ye of the Ghost King Sect, Luo Wei of the Shennong Sect, and Han Junluo of the Xuanling Sect, all of these people held back their strength when they made their moves, which means they must have seen through the flaws in the protective barrier."

Everyone has their own agenda, but by joining forces, we have the advantage. By entering the hall through the side entrance first, we can not only explore the main hall's opportunities before others but also conserve our cultivation energy. What do you think, fellow Daoist?

Ling Xiu looked in the direction she indicated.

Those cultivators were indeed just putting on a show, holding back their full strength throughout.

Han Junluo of the Xuanling Sect had a cunning expression, with a sinister scheme hidden in his eyes.

Murong Ye of the Ghost King Sect frequently looked around, secretly observing the movements of others, all of which were seen by Ling Xiu.

The same was true of the Daoist couple from the Immortal Couple Sect ahead; they refused to exert even the slightest bit of force in their attack.

This group of people possessed considerable cultivation and a profound aura; at the very least, they were all at the late stage of the Condensation Realm.

In contrast, he only had the cultivation level of the early stage of the Condensation Realm. If he were to compete with this group of people alone, he would be at a great disadvantage, especially since the other side had more people.

He remained silent for a moment, then immediately made up his mind.

"Okay, I agree to cooperate with you."

According to Mu Yinxue, sneaking in through unconventional means is the best option at present.
