As soon as they entered the Ancestral Temple, Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu quickly rolled to the sides, relying on the temple walls to resist the strong arrows. However, they did not stop. After hiding by the wall, they took advantage of the momentum and jumped forward, each leaning on a golden pillar.
Some of the arrows could break the wall, so they could not be careless!
After doing all this, the two had time to look around the Ancestral Temple. There were a total of nine golden pillars in the temple, and there was no division between the front hall and the back hall. A row of portraits hung on the wall, each corresponding to a table, a memorial tablet, an offering, and so on. On the table under the portrait, in addition to the ordinary offering, there was also an exquisite and simple golden dipper about an inch in size. It was covered with mysterious patterns, as if outlining a scene of the end of the Dharma, the end of the Great Dao, and the end of the soul.
"It seems to be a little different from the Dao of Innate End of Fate that I derived and Mo Jingqiu obtained the Gist of Trueness." As soon as Shi Xuan saw this small dipper, a little strange feeling rose in his heart.
Mo Jingqiu, on the other hand, let out a long sigh, as if a lot of pressure, obstacles, and burdens had been lifted. She smiled at Shi Xuan and said, "It is the Primordial Dao Embryo Primordial Golden Dipper."
Compared to before, her smile seemed to be more relaxed and confident. After all, no Lord Of Heaven could maintain a perfect state of mind under the pressure of being hunted by a half-step Golden Immortal.
Even if Shi Xuan himself, Shenhuang had not personally come to kill him, and Nirvana Daoist did not even know who Shi Xuan was. Unlike Mo Jingqiu, who came here resolutely cut off the path of retreat. Mu Jing's doppelganger was just outside, and his real body should arrive soon. The temptation of the Primordial Dao Embryo was extraordinary.
Then, Mo Jingqiu stepped out and ran to the Primordial Golden Dipper, leaving her back to Shi Xuan. She seemed to be very confident in the karma oath, or she was not worried that Shi Xuan could not resist the temptation of the Primordial Dao Embryo.
To be honest, the Primordial Origin Golden Dipper was a great temptation to Shi Shuan. If he could obtain it and refine it, it would be like having a Natal Spiritual Treasure at the level of a half-step Golden Immortal. Moreover, he would be as powerful as the dozens of Peak Half-Step Golden Immortals, just like Granny Yu before she reincarnated. With that, he would be able to deal with a Divine Emperor with ease.
Moreover, with this Primordial Dao Embryo, he did not have to take the risk to go to the Nine Underworlds after becoming a half-step Golden Immortal to get the last step of the Fortune Extermination Catalog from the Emperor of Fengdu. As long as he could combine the Dao Seed of Yin and Yang, and then spend ten or twenty thousand years to harmonize the Primordial Dao Embryo, there was a great hope to combine the opposite Dao Seed of Doom.
With such a great temptation, not to mention Shi Xuan, a three-tribulation Lord Of Heaven, even many half-step Golden Immortals could not resist it. In particular, the karma oath was only to help Mo Jingqiu get the Primordial Golden Dipper, but it did not stipulate what would happen after he got the Primordial Golden Dipper. In other words, when Mo Jingqiu got the Primordial Golden Dipper, the karma oath would be cleared, and Shi Xuan could attack without any scruples.
Many thoughts flashed through Shi Xuan's mind, and he asked himself, "Has this ever gone against my nature?"
There were no unnecessary questions, no analysis of pros and cons, no struggle and hesitation, only asking his heart.
From his previous life to the present, many things appeared one by one. His heart was clear, and he could see his nature. In the end, Shi Xuan smiled and said to himself, "It's not my nature. Even if I don't get the Primordial Golden Dipper, and the path will be much more difficult and dangerous, I can't do something like betraying and backstabbing."
"This path is full of temptations, can you hold on to it?"
"Stick to your nature, and be strong!"
Between the questions and answers, Shi Xuan steeled his mind, eliminated the temptation, and suppressed all the thoughts. His heart was like a bright moon, shining brightly. His eyes were clear, and he looked at Mo Jingqiu with a smile. He took the Primordial Golden Dipper in his hand, closed his eyes, and immersed his mind in it to communicate with the center.
Outside the ancestral temple, footsteps were light and extremely fast. Someone was walking towards the door. In the reflection of Shi Xuan's mind, he had already discovered that it was Mu Jing. Mu Jing also sensed that Shi Xuan was standing behind the pillar, and Mo Jingqiu was holding the Primordial Golden Dipper with both hands.
Mo Jingqiu suddenly opened her eyes and put the Primordial Golden Dipper away. She smiled sweetly at Shi Xuan, like a hundred flowers blooming. "Shi Xuan, you're really a virtuous person."
"Don't you need to continue connecting? I can block them for a moment, "Shi Xuan said solemnly. If Mu Jing's doppelganger was still at the Fourth Tribulation, it would be good if he could block her for a few moments. Now, everyone was at the peak of the Body Refining Realm. Even with the help of Zhu Shang and other guards, as a swordsman, Shi Xuan had enough confidence to block them for a moment. Moreover, his mind cultivation was still there, and he could barely use the Big Dipper Guiding the Way!
Besides, if Mo Jingqiu could basically control the Innate Taoist Fetus, even if Mu Jing's doppelganger's cultivation recovered, it would only be a matter of time before the Golden Dipper spun. Shi Xuan still knew which was more important.
Mo Jingqiu shook her head with a relaxed expression. "In the absence of spiritual power, we can only rely on our minds to slowly connect. With our Taoist Heart cultivation, it's still very easy to divert part of our attention during the fight. Well, we have to pay attention later. As the connection between me and the Primordial Chaos Golden Dipper deepens, I can restrain some of its suppressive power. It'll no longer suppress me to the Body Refining Realm, but it's very likely to suppress me to the Qi Drawing Realm, the Divine Soul Realm, or the Gold Core Realm. Shi Xuan, your cultivation will also recover to this realm. Don't be caught off guard. "
Shi Xuan nodded, indicating that he understood. At that time, as long as they seized this moment and killed Mu Jing's doppelganger, the two of them would be able to do whatever they wanted in the Last Days. They would no longer be obstructed, and they would be able to swagger away.
The two of them spread out and pounced toward the gate, one on the left and the other on the right.
Mu Jing had already noticed this scene in his mind reflection. When he reached the gate, his knees suddenly went soft, and he rolled on the ground like a lazy donkey without caring about his image. He dodged the saber lights that Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu slashed at him from above and below. Then, he leaped up with a beautiful posture and brandished his treasured sword. A cold light flashed as he stabbed it toward Mo Jingqiu.
A saber light that seemed to have been waiting for a long time appeared midway and blocked Mu Jing's treasured sword. When the two collided, a rice-grain-sized nick appeared on this ordinary guard's saber.
Shi Xuan understood that among the people who came, Mu Jing was the most difficult to deal with. She also had the ability of mind reflection, and she would be able to detect the slightest change in her movements. Fighting with her would be a bitter battle. Therefore, he took the initiative and let Mo Jingqiu deal with the guards who came later. Although they had a large number of people, they didn't have to waste their energy fighting with Mu Jing. This allowed Mo Jingqiu to quickly connect with the Primordial Chaos Golden Dipper.
Clang, clang, clang. The sound of sabers and swords clashing could be heard incessantly. Shi Xuan and Mu Jing seemed to be performing a beautiful dance of sabers and swords together. The two of them had such a tacit understanding that wherever the treasured sword appeared, the long saber would be there to receive it. Wherever the long saber slashed, the treasured sword would also be waiting there as if it had long been prepared. This caused Zhu Shang and the guards who came later to almost be dumbfounded.
In the way of sword technique changes, Shi Xuan was better than Mu Jing, and Mu Jing's treasured sword completely restrained Shi Xuan's long saber. Therefore, the two of them were evenly matched. However, in the long run, the long saber would definitely break, and Shi Xuan's situation would be dangerous.
Shi Xuan originally thought that the Big Dipper Guiding the Way and the ability of mind reflection could suppress Mu Jing. Although she was a fourth tribulation, she was a clone. Her ability of mind reflection was at most equal to his. Who knew that it would be a tie, as if Mu Jing was very sensitive to the changes in his heart.
On the other side, Mo Jingqiu was at ease. Her figure swayed, and when she swung her long saber, guards fell. Zhu Shang focused, and his eyes flickered. He was about to press down on Mo Jingqiu's neck. Once she stopped breathing, the long saber in her hand would definitely lose its power temporarily. Under the combined forces of the guards, it would be difficult for her to escape death.
However, just as the dark light in Zhu Shang's eyes was about to appear, he suddenly felt as if his throat was being choked by something. It was difficult to breathe, and he almost collapsed to the ground. It was not easy for him to recover.
Fortunately, he was hiding far away by the door. Otherwise, Mo Jingqiu would be able to end him with a casual slash.
"It's the two Taoist priests that old geezer Zhen Xuzi brought in!" Zhu Shang came to a realization. He had just experienced this kind of experience of having his strength reflected back at him in the afternoon. The memory was still fresh in his mind, and he wanted to die from shame. Now that he had experienced it again, he naturally associated it with the two Taoist priests. Looking at the number of assassins, he saw that there were also two people. He was immediately certain. "Let's see how you die this time, Zhen Xuzi!"
In a good mood, he rolled up his vermillion long robe, revealing a strange dark green bracelet. He prepared to activate the mechanism and use poison to envelop Mo Jingqiu and the guards.
However, Mo Jingqiu seemed to have long sensed his actions. She suddenly turned around and circled around the pillar to face the enemies so that she could hide behind the pillar at any time. At the same time, she waved her left hand, and a black object flew toward Zhu Shang.
Zhu Shang thought it was a hidden weapon. Seeing that it was coming at him so quickly, he did not dare to be careless. He temporarily stopped activating the mechanism and swung his treasured sword, wanting to knock it down.
With a flash of the sword light, the black object was easily cut in half. Zhu Shang looked down, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead. "How dare you use the spirit tablet of the founding ancestor as a hidden weapon!" he thought. "How dare you use the spirit tablet of the founding ancestor as a hidden weapon! You're not a son, you're not a son! "
The treasured sword and the long saber were like agile, swimming dragons, rising and falling in the main hall. Mu Jing smiled from time to time, her dimples faintly visible. Together with her wonderful swordsmanship, she was truly out of this world. She wanted to use this to arouse the desire in Shi Xuan's heart and protect him, slowing his long saber and creating an opportunity to win.
Mu Jing was very clear that Mo Jingqiu was colluding with the Primeval Chaos Golden Dipper and understood that she had to end the battle quickly. Of course, she used all her means.
Unfortunately, Shi Xuan turned a blind eye to her beauty. Instead, the saber light became even more ruthless, as if he wanted to kill Mu Jing before the long saber broke.
Outside the ancestral shrine, Ai Hong, the Fourth Prince, and the others had already arrived with a large number of guards. When he arrived at the square, the first thing he asked was, "Where is Miss Mu Jing?"
When he learned that Mu Jing had entered the ancestral shrine and was fighting with the assassins, and that the guards could only rush in with a few people because the door was narrow and the assassins couldn't open it, he couldn't hide his anxiety. The Fourth Prince snatched a guard's long saber and was about to rush in.
"Miss Mu Jing, quickly retreat and let the assassins stay inside. The ancestral shrine is sacred and can't be tarnished by rascals. The ancestors of the past will definitely be willing to die together with these rascals." Ai Hong shouted loudly, directly making up his mind to burn the ancestral shrine, causing the officials who came with him to be dumbfounded. The Fourth Prince's long saber fell to the ground, making a crisp clang.
In the stalemate, hearing Ai Hong's words, Mu Jing didn't care. Although burning the ancestral shrine was a good move, and the fierce flames weren't something that Shi Xuan and Mo Jingqiu could resist, it would take more than ten breaths to burn them to death. With this time, they would have already mastered the Primeval Chaos Golden Dipper. It was better to entangle them and let Ai Hong tear down the walls of the ancestral shrine and surround them with bows and crossbows!
Ai Hong waited for a moment and saw that Mu Jing was still fighting by the door, making it impossible for the archers to aim at Shi Xuan. In a moment of anxiety, he really ordered to tear down part of the walls. The officials were slightly relieved. This was much better than burning the ancestral shrine. At least the portraits and memorial tablets wouldn't be damaged.
…
However, just as the guards rushed forward, Shi Xuan's long saber broke, leaving only half of it. Suddenly, he was in danger.
Mo Jingqiu had been paying attention to this side. He tiptoed and a long saber flew to Shi Xuan, while Mu Jing used his sword with all his strength, hoping to kill Shi Xuan when he caught the saber.
At this moment, suddenly, Shi Xuan found that his Internal Qi and Genuine Qi appeared one after another, and his cultivation rose steadily. In a flash, he stabilized at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm.
Mo Jingqiu's connection with the Primeval Chaos Golden Dipper had finally deepened a little, and he could slightly restrain the power of the Dharma Ending Period!
Prepared for this, Shi Xuan didn't panic at all. He opened his five fingers, and the purple thunder suddenly burst out. Mu Jing seemed to have expected this situation. He pressed his left hand, and the wind and fire suddenly appeared, turning into an oven that enveloped his body to resist Shi Xuan's Shenxiao Purple Thunder.
Zhu Shang had been unable to lock on Mo Jingqiu, and the poisonous powder couldn't be sprayed. However, at the moment when the suppression of the Dharma Ending Period weakened a little, he felt that his soul was rapidly strengthening, as if the shackles that had been suppressing and shackling his soul were suddenly removed. He really had a feeling of returning to nature after being in a cage for a long time.
"Haha, haha, I actually made a breakthrough in the midst of battle." Zhu Shang was very proud of himself. He didn't expect that under his anxiety, he actually broke through all the obstacles and had a glimpse of the way to immortality. "Let's see how you die!"
However, at this moment, Mo Jingqiu turned his head and glanced at him. Without any magic power, just a thought, Zhu Shang felt that his soul, which had become several times stronger, couldn't be controlled.
"No!" In an instant, his soul rushed left and right, and the fire in his heart was ignited.
In the midst of a scream, Zhu Shang's body was burning with invisible flames, and he rushed out of the ancestral temple. Ai Hong and the others could only see the Nation Master mysteriously turn into ashes.
Then, they saw purple electric snakes rushing out of the ancestral temple, and in the blink of an eye, the ancestral temple and the surrounding area were razed to the ground. In this area, countless purple electric lights were rolling.
Amidst the electric lights, a man and a woman were fighting Mu Jing. The man shot out purple lightning with one hand and controlled a sword with the other. The dim white sword light crisscrossed. The woman used a ruler that shone brightly with starlight to block Mu Jing's ruler that was also condensed with starlight. At the same time, she took out a golden dipper, which was evenly matched with Mu Jing's golden dipper. Meanwhile, Mu Jing's Wind Fire Furnace was faintly discernible, and he was struggling under the sword light.
The treasured sword in Ai Hong's hand fell to the ground with a clang, and the sound of the battle rose and fell. Everyone was dumbfounded. "Immortal! It's actually a battle between immortals! "
"So Jing 'er is an immortal on an ice mountain. No wonder people outside the Great Wall have never seen her." Amidst the shock, the Fourth Prince felt a trace of sweet joy. "That is indeed her sister. Her methods are exactly the same."
If not for the fact that they were in the world inside the Universe Cauldron and their cultivation was suppressed to the Divine Soul level, these people would have long been turned into ashes.
…
Both of them were at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm. Shi Xuan's swordsmanship was outstanding, and his sword energy spread out like thunder. Coupled with Mo Jingqiu blocking Mu Jing's attack from the side, Mu Jing was in danger in just a few short moments.
But at this moment, Mu Jing's face revealed a strange and beautiful smile, and his body suddenly dispersed, turning into countless black gas.
Just as Shi Xuan was about to destroy the black gas, he suddenly felt an extremely terrifying pressure rising in his mind, causing his Divine Soul to feel as if it was completely frozen.
This kind of pressure was something that Shi Xuan had never encountered in his life!
As far as his eyes could see, in the direction where the black gas was directed, a clear and slightly dim auspicious cloud shrouded Mu Jing, who was like a fairy of the Nine Heavens. With every step she took, lotuses bloomed, and she walked leisurely as if there was no one else around.
