Fairy, help me cultivate.

He dodged a row of flints and steel, then leaped heavily into the hole in the floor, looming over Chen Yao.

Looking at the Fire Spirit Jade Sword in Chen Yao's hand, he couldn't help but snort loudly.

That wicked woman, Jiu Luo!

To prevent me from recklessly leaving the building, they had already secretly planted this Demon Lord Jade Sword!

Once he understood this, Zhiyuan was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.

Fortunately, the swordsman's skill level was not high enough to stop me!

Hearing the grinding sound of teeth, Chen Yao felt a chill and brandished his jade sword, summoning the fire-attribute magical artifacts on the shelf to attack the old monster.

The old monster let out a shout and soared into the air. However, since this was already one of the lower levels, the magic weapon itself was not powerful enough, and the increase in power was not significant. Therefore, while dodging, he also had more energy to counterattack.

The fist wind was mixed with fine sword energy, which blasted towards Chen Yao like a wall.

Chen Yao slashed with both swords, barely managing to break through a wisp of fist wind in front of him, but he was still sent flying backward.

He grabbed Hui Ding's hand in time, and with the force of the punch, smashed the window and flew out of the attic.

The old monster only realized he'd been tricked after dodging the fire-attribute magical artifact.

"You little bastard!!!"

He rushed out of the broken window and was immediately met by the clouds and mist that seemed to fall from the sky. His shoulders sank and he was pressed straight to the ground, his bones creaking and his legs half-buried in the rocks.

Despite this, Zhiyuan still had the strength to look around, but he could no longer find Chen Yao, and he was filled with resentment.

"You cowards! Hundreds of years ago I could beat you until you cried for your parents, and hundreds of years later, even if I destroy my destiny, I can still do it!"

He knew, of course, that the mountain on his shoulders was suppressed by several old monsters from the Mingyang Sect working together.

"Fellow Daoist, please do not be anxious. We mean no harm. Now that your life force is destroyed, Mingyang can no longer restrain you. We both know this. We just want you to calm down and go to him as soon as possible."

A strong, resonant voice drifted from the mountains and clouds.

"He's going?"

The old monster retorted dismissively.

"Jiuluo is no longer in Mingyang."

Hui'an only said this one sentence.

Zhiyuan's eyes widened in surprise: "Where is she?"

No one answered. After a while, a strong voice floated down again: "Fellow Daoist, every moment you stay here delays many good opportunities for revenge."

Zhiyuan's eye twitched: "How do I know you didn't conspire to lure me out of the sect so that Jiuluo could have a big fight?"

A lustrous white jade hairpin descended from the clouds and landed right in Zhiyuan's hand.

Zhiyuan took it, weighed it in his hand, and the jade hairpin immediately flew back to the sea of ​​clouds.

"Now do you believe me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhiyuan burst into laughter: "I never thought that this wicked woman, Jiuluo, would be so devoted to the sect, yet in the end, she still couldn't escape being betrayed and forced to flee. Ha, you bunch of short-sighted villains! The Mingyang Sect is doomed from this day forward!"

After he finished speaking, the clouds and mountains pressed down, the rocks shattered, and Zhiyuan had vanished without a trace.

Amidst the sea of ​​clouds in the sky, Huian held the jade hairpin passed down through generations of sect leaders, his face shifting between pale and uncertain.

The elder who had been questioning him earlier turned around and comforted him, saying, "That's just how things are; there's nothing we can do about it. We've only done what we had to do. As for the rise and fall of the sect, I don't believe that without her, Jiu Luo, no one in Mingyang can truly shoulder the responsibility!"

Hui'an nodded and focused his gaze on a certain spot in the sea of ​​clouds: "Next, it's time to deal with that little thief."

The elders all turned their gazes in that direction.

The churning sea of ​​clouds revealed Chen Yao's figure.

The Azure Cloud Locking Mist Talisman is not a dedicated concealment talisman, and as expected, it was still discovered.

He met Huian's gaze, smiled, and with a flick of his wrist, his figure vanished in an instant.

Huian and the elders were all surprised. As sword energy surged beneath them, they all retreated.

"This is! This is the sword of the Yu family!"

The white-bearded old man cried out in disbelief.

"Who cares whose sword it is, this time it will belong to the Treasure Pavilion!"

Hui'an raised his hand, and the clouds and mist that had collapsed the mountain peaks swirled back and enveloped Chen Yao, who had just appeared.

Facing a mountain that could suppress even the most powerful old monster, Chen Yao did not dodge or flinch this time.

Just when everyone thought he was stunned, the clouds and mountains collapsed, and a purple aura swept across like ripples, turning the entire sky and sea of ​​clouds into a scarlet purple, like a boiling poisonous swamp.

The elders were stunned for a moment, then their faces showed fear: "It's that demon!"

They immediately abandoned any thought of maintaining the formation and each used their best skills to escape or defend themselves.

Hui'an tried to struggle, but as soon as she charged forward, she was struck by a sword aura from Chen Yao. Although the sword aura did not look strong, it still made her feel uneasy, so she had to stop her charge and dodge.

Just after this moment of hesitation, a hazy figure carrying Chen Yao disappeared into the horizon.

As Chen Yao left, he even waved to her provocatively.

In his hand was the eye of the Di Ting beast, whose formation was half-broken!

Damn it!

When the purple clouds dissipated, Hui'an led a few people in a swift pursuit and mobilized manpower to search the surrounding mountains for miles, but they could not find even a trace of Chen Yao.

Somewhere in the deep mountains near Ming Yangzong.

Hui Ding was absent-minded.

Mingzhan, who had been observing her for some time, finally asked nervously, "Why did he release you? Will you tell Sect Leader Hui?"

Hui Ding glared at her angrily: "I... I don't know why he saved me..."

Mingzhan glanced at her sideways and relaxed a little.

Huian was a power-hungry and selfless man.

Since Hui Ding had received a favor from Chen Yao, she would never dare to tell Hui An, let alone that she had taken Chen Yao to the Treasure Pavilion.

Therefore, it can be said that Mingzhan also held a handle on Huiding.

But why did Chen Yao keep Hui Ding?

Chapter 108 The Elixir of Transformation

Three hundred li west of Mount Kuanglu lies a desolate valley.

"Is it safe here? It's so close to Kuanglu Temple."

Chen Yao glanced absentmindedly in the direction Luo Hou had left, feeling somewhat displeased.

Although he knew that relying on Rahu for protection was not a long-term solution, he never expected her to leave so suddenly.

When asked about Yun Jiang, she merely pursed her lips, refusing to provide any information.

"Since the Sword Fairy brought us here, it means there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Su Quanyu appeared to be speaking to Chen Yao, but out of the corner of her eye, she was watching Xu Junyu, actually testing her as well.

After his trip to the Mingyang Sect, Xu Junyu had a lot more fine wine in his storage ring, which he was now gulping down, completely ignoring what the two were saying.

Chen Yao reached out and deftly snatched the half-filled gourd of wine from her hand.

Xu Junyu glared at him: "I passed on my sword to you, not so you could steal my wine gourd!"

However, she was quite satisfied with Chen Yao's progress; he had even managed to snatch the gourd from her hands. It seemed it was time to begin the next stage of training.

"This place is too close to the thieves' den; it's not the time for drinking, is it?"

Chen Yao pressed the wine gourd into his storage ring.

Xu Junyu was not very happy. After all, Kuanglu Sect was the sect she had been in for many years. "What kind of den of thieves? That's our sect!"

Chen Yao scoffed: "I don't see where 'our' sect is."

Xu Junyu understood Chen Yao's meaning, blinked, sighed, and had no way to refute it.

Amidst the clear breeze and sea of ​​clouds, the cry of a crane whirled rapidly, and a large crane quickly swooped down from the clouds and arrived in front of the three.

Chen Yao and Su Quanyu immediately became alert and on high alert.

The crane gently folded its wings, chuckled softly, and then spoke in a human voice.

"Thank you for your trouble, Uncle Xu."

Xu Junyu smiled and nodded.

Upon hearing its voice, Chen Yao was startled. Looking at the crane's listless and lifeless eyes, he realized that it was Jiang Bailian in disguise.

Sure enough, a flash of white light appeared on the crane's body, revealing Jiang Bailian's true form.

Su Quanyu was stunned: "This... what kind of supernatural power is this!"

In her entire life, she had never heard of any immortal in the world who possessed such transformative supernatural powers.

Jiang Bailian squinted at Su Quanyu for a while, but finally gave up: "And who is this?"

She couldn't see who the woman was, but she had already guessed that it was Chen Yao who had gotten herself into this mess.

"Su Quanyu, the head of the Mingyang Sect at Qipanshan, is honored to meet Fairy Jiang."

Su Quanyu took the initiative to introduce himself.

Jiang Bailian nodded in realization, then lowered his head slightly and said modestly, "This is a transformation pill I recently developed, just a small trinket..."

As she spoke, her face flushed slightly: "It was created by a twist of fate, and it also has significant drawbacks in its use. It's best not to use it unless absolutely necessary."

Chen Yao saw value in this transformable pill. He was wanted by the righteous sects of the South China Sea and had things to do. If he could transform, it would make things much easier.

What are the drawbacks?

Jiang Bailian looked at him and said, "There are many inconveniences here. Let's enter the secret realm first."

She looked around blankly, and after a long while, said shyly, "I can't see clearly..."

Chen Yao couldn't help but touch his forehead.
