Chapter 279

Yun Yue, the loose cultivator who was the leader of the group, saw Xiao Wu's frowning face and was about to make fun of him. During this period of time, Xiao Wu had made a huge fortune. However, the sky suddenly turned dark and a heavy downpour came down. The bean-sized raindrops hit his face and it was extremely painful.

"What kind of weather is this? The sun was so bright just now!" Yun Yue and the others hurriedly ran back under the eaves of the Equipment Refinement Room that they had just come out from. They used a spell technique to dry their clothes as they cursed under their breaths. The rain fell so quickly that they didn't even have time to use the Rain Avoidance Technique.

Just as Xiao Wu was about to reply, the rumbling sound of thunder rang out, blocking his words back into his mouth. Azure lightning flashed in the sky like dancing silver snakes, it was very frightening.

"I say, Brother Xiao, the weather in the Black Dragon Swamp is too strange. It suddenly rains without any warning." Yun Yue was a wandering cultivator who had just arrived at the Black Dragon Swamp.

Xiao Wu frowned. "I grew up in the Black Dragon Swamp and have never seen such heavy rain. Recently, many things have happened in the cultivation world."

Outside the house, the wind was strong and the rain was heavy. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The leaves of the trees flew and the grass swayed. The rain fell to the ground, creating a loud noise. People outside couldn't even hear the voices of those around them.

Inside the house, Shi Xuan took the opportunity to spit out the drop of blood essence in his mouth. The moment the blood touched the Tai Chi diagram, it was absorbed by the black and white runes. Shi Xuan immediately felt a connection with the Tai Chi diagram. With a thought, the black and white runes slowly rotated. The countless rays of light released by the Tai Chi diagram immediately retracted. Then, all the restrictions were inserted into the diagram. A diagram with a black and white Yin Yang fish appeared in the air. Then, the Tai Chi diagram rolled up and fell into Shi Xuan's hands.

It was finally completed!

Shi Xuan heaved a long sigh and shook the Tai Chi diagram. The diagram immediately transformed into a golden bridge that seemed to contain everything in the world. The golden bridge started from Shi Xuan's hand, and no one knew where the other end of the bridge ended.

Strangely enough, with the appearance of the Golden Bridge, the rainstorm outside immediately stopped. Then, the gale subsided, and the dark clouds dispersed. A red sun and a seven-colored rainbow appeared.

Shi Xuan shook again and the golden bridge turned back into a Tai Chi diagram. Then, it slowly flew into Shi Xuan's dantian. Shi Xuan looked inside and saw that the Taiji diagram was floating in the True Qi in his dantian, and when the Samadhi Divine Wind True Qi came into contact with the Taiji diagram, it automatically transformed into Yin and Yang Qi, which was then absorbed by it. Finally, it slightly trembled, and spat out some condensed Yin and Yang Qi, which fed back to Shi Xuan, causing his True Qi to instantly complete the Fourth Revolution.

However, such a good thing would only happen at the moment when the Natal Magic Tool was successfully refined.

In addition, because it was refined using natural treasures, once the Tai Chi diagram was successfully refined, it would be the fifth level of perfection. Moreover, it was the fifth level of perfection that Shi Xuan could completely control. After that, the refining time would be twice as fast as for those of the same level. In other words, refining the Tai Chi diagram of the sixth level of perfection would take 35 years. Now that it had become Shi Xuan's natal ritual implement, it only needed about 18 years. Because it was connected to Shi Xuan's heart and blood, and it was nourished day and night in his qi, it was naturally much faster.

As for its power, the fifth level of perfection was already able to compete with the seventh level of perfection. The Tai Chi diagram's restriction was also the most powerful kind, so it was naturally equivalent to the eighth level of perfection. It became the most powerful ritual implement in Shi Xuan's hands.

If Shi Xuan activated it with all his strength, the Tai Chi diagram could also turn into a huge Yin and Yang fish. It could brush out Yin and Yang qi and turn all things into Primal Chaos Qi. With the current power of the Tai Chi diagram, this Yin and Yang qi was enough to have the power of a newly advanced spiritual weapon, which was the power of a first level Taoist technique. Of course, with Shi Xuan's spiritual power, he could only use such an attack three times.

The Tai Chi diagram's usual attack method was to use the Yin and Yang fish to brush out extreme Yang qi and extreme Yin light.

Of course, this didn't mean that Shi Xuan could completely challenge a Divine Soul Stage expert. It could only be said that it was easier for him to stay alive when facing a Divine Soul Stage expert. He also had the ability to "continuously" threaten their lives. After all, those Divine Soul Stage experts who had been around for many years all had a Life Artifact that was around the seventh level of restriction. Even for those who had just entered the Divine Soul Stage, it was common for them to have a Life Artifact that was at the sixth level of restriction.

"The weather is really strange. It was raining heavily just now, but the moment we hid inside, the sun shone brightly. Brother Xiao, look, there's even a rainbow over there." Yun Yue stood under the eaves and sighed as he looked at Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu also found it very strange. "That's true. It was as dark as the middle of the night just now. Are our eyes playing tricks on us? Or are we under some kind of illusion technique? "The last sentence was an instinctive reaction of a cultivator.

Yun Yue laughed. "So many cultivators saw it. How could our eyes be playing tricks on us?" He pointed at the few loose cultivators following behind him and the other cultivators who had come out of their hiding places.

"It's an illusion technique. Could it be that Senior Gu would let his refining room be attacked by an illusion technique?" Yun Yue was very confident in the cultivator who had surrounded this place because he was a Qi Drawing Stage cultivator. There weren't many of them in the cultivation world now!

A cultivator behind him slapped himself so hard that he cried out in pain. When he saw the others looking at him strangely, he hurriedly said, "I tried it. It wasn't an illusion technique."

Yun Yue felt very embarrassed. He said to Xiao Wu, "Brother Xiao, this kid is a bit stubborn. Don't mind him."

Xiao Wu waved his hand. "How could I? Speaking of which, in the storm just now, I seemed to have seen light coming from that row of refining rooms. Did you guys see it? "

Yun Yue shook his head. "I didn't notice. But that's where the Earth Fire was erupting. Isn't it normal for light to come out?"

"It wasn't the normal light of the Earth Fire. It was the kind that suddenly shone brightly. Forget it. You guys won't understand even if I explain it. Oh, that Senior came out. " When Xiao Wu saw Shi Xuan come out of room A2, he hurriedly went to greet him. This was his lucky star. In the past four months, he had earned more spirit stones than he could earn in a lifetime.

"Senior, Senior, you've come out of seclusion? Do you have any instructions for me? "Xiao Wu bowed in a flattering manner.

Shi Xuan was currently in a good mood. His life magic tool, the Tai Chi Diagram, had been successfully refined. After slowly exploring the Star Observing Disc, he had also completely mastered it. His True Qi had successfully completed the Fourth Revolution, but he still hadn't figured out what that black bead was, let alone mastered it. He could only keep it and ask his master when he returned to the sect. Thus, he amiably asked Xiao Wu, "Has anything major happened in the cultivation world recently?"

Yun Yue also wanted to curry favor with this mysterious Qi Drawing Stage cultivator. He rushed to answer before Xiao Wu could, "Reporting to Senior, the cultivation world has been very chaotic these past four months."

"Oh? What happened?" This was within Shi Xuan's expectations. The experts of the three great sects had all died, so there would definitely be major changes.

Xiao Wu glared at Yun Yue. "Senior, Yellow Maple Valley, the Houtu Sect, and the Purple Cloud Sect lost their Divine Soul ancestors and all of their Qi Drawing Stage elders to the Guangyang Immortal Sect. As a result, the remaining three or four Qi Drawing Stage elders are fighting for control of their sects. Three months ago, the results were finally revealed."

Shi Xuan had heard about the three great sects' Qi Drawing Stage cultivators fighting for control before he went into seclusion. He didn't expect the outcome to be decided so quickly. "What was the result?"

"Actually, it couldn't be considered a result. They were all evenly matched, so they could only break up. Apart from one Yellow Maple Valley elder being killed by the other elders, the others each occupied a few mountains and divided up the sect's wealth. They could be considered to have established their own sects." Xiao Wu revealed a rather envious expression. It was unknown whether he was envious of the sects' independence or the division of wealth.

"Does this mean that the three great sects became many small sects?" Shi Xuan felt that this result was normal.

Yun Yue stepped forward. "At first, it was like that. They were divided into eight or nine small sects. However, something big happened later on. These eight or nine small sects became two small sects, and they were even chased out of their original sects."

Shi Xuan seemed to have guessed what happened. "Oh, what happened?"

Xiao Wu pushed Yun Yue aside. "Two months ago, three wandering cultivator seniors joined forces with the heads of those eight or nine small sects. Twelve Qi Drawing Stage cultivators surrounded Guanhai City. They said that the city lord of Guanhai City killed the other cultivators who entered the Immortal Palace to search for treasures. These Qi Drawing Stage cultivators thought that Zhao Jinyu was the only one in Guanhai City. Tsk tsk. Little did they know that the city lord's wife, Shen Xiaojin, had long since reached Qi Drawing Stage. With the help of Guanhai City's formation, the battle was so intense that only three of the twelve Qi Drawing Stage cultivators managed to escape! "

"Fairy Hongyun?" Shi Xuan had not expected Zhao Jinyu to have such a nickname.

"That's because of that Spirit Weapon flying sword that Fairy Zhao was using. It was as red as the clouds and moved like the wind and thunder. Its might was unparalleled. None of those Qi Drawing Stage cultivators could even withstand a single strike from it." Xiao Wu said with a proud look.

It should be that Red Thunder Flying Sword. However, given Zhao Jinyu's cultivation state, she could only unleash ten strikes at most. She must have waited for the right opportunity to strike under the protection of the formation. Shi Xuan nodded his head. "What else happened?"

Yun Yue squeezed back in. "During that battle, there was another Spirit Weapon flying sword that appeared. It was used by Shen Xiaojin. It was a purple sword light." Xiao Wu didn't know how to describe Yun Yue. His description was rather dry. However, Shi Xuan could still guess that it was that Purple Thunder Sword.

"That City Lord Zhao must have obtained countless treasures from the Immortal Mansion. Even though he died, Fairy Hongyun and Shen Xiaojin were able to enjoy his fortune. Sigh, I'm so envious!" Xiao Wu's face was filled with jealousy. Yun Yue's expression was the same.

What was there to be envious about? Everyone else had to exchange their lives for it as well. Shi Xuan smiled. "Oh? So those three sects were taken over by Fairy Hongyun and the others later on?"

"Fairy Hongyun and the others only took over the Deep Earth Sect and chased away the other small sect. This was because they lacked manpower and were unwilling to take in too many people. At the same time, they had to manage the Guanhai City as well. Therefore, they didn't want to expand too quickly. As for the small sect in Yellow Maple Valley, they were chased away by Lu … Lingxiao. "For some reason, Xiao Wu was stuttering when he mentioned Lu Lingxiao.
