Xiao Baiyu was on the run. Even though Laozu, a Celestial Being, was chasing him, Xiao Baiyu did not panic. Instead, he remained calm.
However, the only thing that puzzled him was that the void was still calm. How was it that Origin Wine had not found Lu Tianping yet? Could it be that Lu Tianping was even more powerful than him?
This was impossible. Xiao Baiyu did not believe that Lu Ping had surpassed him in terms of strength. Perhaps he would in the future, but he was definitely not a match for him now.
Yes, the reason was because of Origin Wine. That fellow had just become a Celestial Being, and his cultivation had not stabilized yet. He had delayed until now in order to play it safe.
Unknowingly, the Sky-Splitting Sword Saint, known as the number one Pure Yang cultivator in the cultivation world, Xiao Baiyu, had placed Lu Ping on equal footing with him. At this critical moment of life and death, they were even secretly competing to see who could hide from Celestial Being Laozu for the longest time!
Perhaps it was to confirm what Xiao Baiyu had just thought. At this moment, a turbulent wave of Spiritual Qi suddenly surged from the void hundreds of miles behind him. At that moment, the surrounding void was annihilated, and the violent spatial vibrations directly affected Xiao Baiyu's surroundings. It even caused Xiao Baiyu's restrained aura to leak out for a moment.
Not good!
Xiao Baiyu was shocked. He calmed down the turbulence in the surrounding void, and the moment he restrained the Spiritual Qi around him, he used the Sky-Splitting Sword as an escape sword. By combining the escape technique with spatial magic, Xiao Baiyu's speed increased by another level. However, it was all too late.
It was that moment of exposure that allowed Celestial Being Laozu, who had been chasing Xiao Baiyu, to capture his location. The surrounding space seemed to compress. An old man with white hair and a beard seemed to be walking slowly, but every step he took seemed to cross countless spaces. Xiao Baiyu could only feel that the distance between them was rapidly shrinking.
"Xiao Baiyu, since you have already received the inheritance of Jiuxuan Tower, you already know that you cannot escape from the Old Man."
The old man strolled leisurely behind Xiao Baiyu. He was not in a hurry to stop Xiao Baiyu. Instead, he tried to persuade him.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Baiyu really stopped in the void, turned around, and cupped his hands towards the Crystal Palace's Laozu. "Senior must be Danzhu Laozu from the Crystal Palace. Junior Xiao Baiyu, being able to compete with Senior today is enough to satisfy me!"
The old man looked at Xiao Baiyu in amusement. "Do you really think you are a match for the Old Man? Do you know the true difference between a Celestial Being and a Pure Yang Cultivator? "
Xiao Baiyu smiled. "Since Senior has already said that I have received the inheritance of Jiuxuan Tower, how could I not know the true difference between a Pure Yang Cultivator and a Celestial Being? However, it is also because of this that I also know that although Senior has become a Celestial Being, I am afraid that you do not dare to use your full strength in this world. Otherwise, even if the Heavenly Punishment does not descend immediately, Senior will not stay here for long. Why should I fear a Celestial Being Laozu who is only a Celestial Being but has to use a Pure Yang technique? In comparison, I am even luckier than the North Sea Water Sword Immortal! "
Danzhu Laozu snorted coldly. "As the guardian of the Crystal Palace, the Old Man would rather suffer the Heavenly Punishment to get rid of a scourge like you."
The smile on Xiao Baiyu's face disappeared. He said in a low voice, "Then I can only bet that Senior does not dare to exchange your own safety for this Xiao's life. If Senior insists on taking the Heavenly Punishment to attack this Xiao, then this Xiao will accept my fate!"
In the end, Xiao Baiyu suddenly showed a sarcastic expression and said, "Senior, do you really have the courage to perish together with me?"
Danzhu Laozu's expression turned cold. "Although the Old Man cannot stay in this world for too long, before the Heavenly Punishment descends, I at least have the confidence to attack with all my strength. Does Fellow Xiao have the confidence to receive it?"
Danzhu Laozu's words were actually admitting that he did not dare to perish together with Xiao Baiyu. However, even though Xiao Baiyu had seen descriptions of the True Spirit Laozu's full strength in the Nine Mystical Tower's ancient books, he had never seen it for himself. It was absolutely impossible to say that he was not nervous.
However, just as Danzhu Laozu asked this, he saw a trace of fanaticism suddenly appear on Xiao Baiyu's face. This trace of fanaticism was the same as the inexplicable excitement that Lu Ping had when he found out that he was about to encounter the True Spirit Laozu. It was a kind of pursuit and desire for the limit.
At this moment, the Sky Splitter under Xiao Baiyu's feet seemed to conform to its master's wishes. The crisp sound of the sword swept across half of the space with endless fighting spirit. Even Danzhu Laozu slowly withdrew the smile on his face at this moment. His gaze towards Xiao Baiyu was a little more solemn.
"This kind of fearless mentality that never knows what despair is. The Old Man has not seen such a mentality since he became a True Spirit. It has been a long time!"
The Heavenly Poisonous Wall was a forbidden place in the cultivation world of the East Sea. According to the legend of the cultivation world, this secret place was formed when Jiao Daoren mistakenly took Taoist Gui's poisonous elixir and forced out his poisonous blood. In order to prevent the toxicity of the Heavenly Poisonous Wall from spreading, Jiao Daoren was seriously injured and set up the Heavenly Poisonous Wall to prevent the spread of the toxicity of the Heavenly Poisonous Wall to the whole cultivation world.
However, according to the historical records of the Crystal Palace, the Heavenly Poisonous Wall was a place full of strangeness and danger. Even the founder of the Crystal Palace had vaguely guessed from Taoist Hu's words that there might be some amazing existence hidden in the Heavenly Poisonous Wall when Taoist Hu sat down to listen to Taoist Hu's teachings.
However, Laozu, the True Spirit of the Crystal Palace, had sent practitioners to try to sneak into the Heavenly Poisonous Wall to investigate, but in the end, they either got some treasures of heaven and earth or never came back. Therefore, the Heavenly Poisonous Wall remained mysterious to the gurus of the Crystal Palace.
Until 8,000 years ago, a pure yang practitioner of the Crystal Palace could not restrain his curiosity and took the risk to sneak into the Heavenly Poisonous Wall one year after he became a True Spirit and his cultivation was not stable, trying to reveal the secret of the Heavenly Poisonous Wall to the world.
However, what really shocked the Crystal Palace happened. Soon after the pure yang practitioner broke into the Heavenly Poisonous Wall, a huge turbulence of Spiritual Qi broke out inside, which was obviously caused by a fierce fight.
However, before the Crystal Palace could respond and send more people to the rescue, the legendary turbulence of Spiritual Qi in the secret place suddenly disappeared, and the True Spirit Cultivator of the Crystal Palace never returned to the Crystal Palace. The soul lamp that represented his life and death in the Crystal Palace also went out.
When the battle broke out, the two Pure Yang cultivators from Water Crystal Palace who had first entered the Myriad Poison Firmament Wall to receive this Patriarch had also disappeared. Their Soul Lamps had also extinguished, proving that the two Pure Yang cultivators had already perished.
If Laozu, who had just become a True Spirit, had caused a big movement in the Heavenly Poisonous Wall that almost shocked the entire East Ocean, then the two pure yang practitioners were like a drop of water falling into the sea. They could not even make a sound. This also proved that the Crystal Palace Laozu, who had become a True Spirit, could not do anything to the mysterious existence in the Heavenly Poisonous Wall.
This incident made the Crystal Palace very frightened, and they were on emergency alert for a long time. However, the mysterious existence hidden in the secret place of the fallen site never retaliated against the Crystal Palace.
Although the expected retaliation did not come, the Crystal Palace was secretly on alert and in panic for a whole 200 years because the Crystal Palace Laozu, who had just become a True Spirit, was preparing to inherit the previous True Spirit and continue to be the guardian of the Mini Chiliocosm of the Crystal Palace.
Because of his sudden death, along with the two Pure Yang cultivators who had perished, the previous True Spirit Guardian of the Crystal Palace had no choice but to stay for an additional hundred years. Only then did he decide to head to the Northern Ice Plains and leave this world despite the pleas of the entire Crystal Palace.
The True Spirit cultivators also had a limited lifespan. After becoming a True Spirit, the guardians of the holy land had to stay in the Mini Chiliocosm, which made it impossible for them to make any progress in their cultivation. They could only waste their lifespan. Therefore, these supreme powerhouses often guarded the holy land for 300 to 500 years at most before they left this world to pursue a broader world.
The previous True Spirit Laozu of the Crystal Palace had to stay for an extra 100 years because of the death of his successor and the possible threat from the Sky Wall of Poison. He had already done his best. If he stayed any longer, what was the point of leaving this world when his lifespan was about to end?
However, a hundred years could not allow the Crystal Palace to cultivate a new successor, which made the Crystal Palace once faced a situation very similar to the situation before the Nine Mystical Tower was destroyed.
Fortunately, the news of the death of the Crystal Palace's True Spirit Laozu was not spread out. The cultivation world did not know that the inheritance of the Crystal Palace's True Spirit had been broken. Without the support of the True Spirit Laozu, the Crystal Palace had always maintained a strong position in Donghai. However, after waiting in fear for a hundred years, the Crystal Palace finally welcomed a new True Spirit cultivator. The inheritance of the True Spirit was continued again, and the glory of the holy land was finally maintained.
However, although the crisis had passed, the Crystal Palace had always been secretive about the secret fallen site. Every time the Sky Wall of Poison weakened, the Crystal Palace still sent cultivators into it to search for rare treasures and never gave up exploring the secret fallen site covered by the Sky Wall of Poison. However, the cultivators above the Pure Yang level who could damage the sect never entered it again. The mysterious existence that the entire Crystal Palace was very afraid of also never appeared again.
Originally, Yuan Jiu Laozu was a little hesitant about Lu Ping appearing in front of the Sky Wall of Poison, but he still did not hesitate to attack and kill this genius cultivator who had also disturbed the control of the Crystal Palace over the overseas cultivation world like Xiao Baiyu.
However, he never thought that Lu Ping would break the Sky Wall of Poison without hesitation and break in. The Sky Wall of Poison was the ancient taboo of the Crystal Palace!
