Chapter 601

A moment later, Shi Xuan opened his eyes with a joyful expression.

Compared to before, there were a few more characters on the Tai Chi diagram, which saved him a lot of time. He didn't expect the Moonlight Beasts to have such a relationship with the Tai Chi diagram. No wonder they chased after him as if he was their enemy or their dream. Maybe after they obtained the Tai Chi diagram, it would be of great benefit to them.

But why didn't the Treasure Record mention this? Was this common knowledge in ancient times?

After confirming the reason, Shi Xuan released the Moonlight Beast from the Yin and Yang Twin Qi Bottle one after another and merged it into the Taiji Diagram. Only when Shi Xuan used up more than half of the Moonlight Beast's energy and sensed the restriction of the Taiji Diagram again did he find a problem. That was, the Talisman characters that the Moonlight Beast transformed into were all Yin, so this layer of restriction of the Taiji Diagram still lacked Yang, as well as the Talisman characters that could transform Yin and Yang and set the earth, fire, wind, and water. In other words, before this layer of restriction was completed, it was impossible to rely on the Moonlight Beast to increase the restriction. This completely dispelled Shi Xuan's idea of turning around to capture the Moonlight Beast.

Shi Xuan rubbed his chin as he thought about it. He would most likely have to rely on another type of Skyfiend, the Great Sunlight King Beast, for the Yang-attribute talisman characters. However, Shi Xuan could not think of any Skyfiend that would be compatible with the talisman characters that could change Yin and Yang, as well as the setting of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water. He would still have to rely on himself to slowly refine them. Even so, with the addition of the Great Sunlight King Beast, Shi Xuan would be able to save 30% of the time needed to refine his Life Instrument.

Putting away the tai chi diagram, Shi Xuan stood up and identified his position. He found that he was not far from Red Maple Mountain, so he used the Heaven Thunder Demon Sword and headed toward Red Maple Mountain.

…

Red Maple Mountain was one of the twelve mountains of the five peaks and twelve mountains of the Heaven's Sword Sect. It was the place where the disciples of the Heaven's Sword Sect competed. It was rumored that the mountain was covered with red maple leaves and was a sea of fire all year round.

At this moment, only half of Red Maple Mountain was left, floating in the black void. On this half, except for some pavilions protected by formations that were still intact, the rest was barren, revealing jagged rocks. The famous red maple leaves were nowhere to be seen.

On a road not too far away from the summit, there was an intense battle taking place. Three Divine Soul realm cultivators surrounded another Divine Soul realm cultivator and fiercely attacked them. All sorts of lights erupted from time to time.

Finally, that Divine Soul realm cultivator was outnumbered. He was struck in the neck, chest, and waist by three flying swords. He couldn't be any more dead. In particular, the sword that struck his waist directly cut him in half, causing his intestines and other organs to spill onto the ground.

"Big Brother Che, this old fellow is truly troublesome. Even with the three of us working together, it took us so long to kill him. I wonder if he has many good items on him?" Li Wenju asked, looking at Che Zhao.

Che Zhao picked up the Divine Soul Realm cultivator's storage bag and sighed, "We are also unlucky. Why did we come to Red Maple Mountain to search for treasures? Besides that hall that we can't enter, there are no other treasures. Ai, in order to deal with those Heavenly Demons, we spent so many precious talismans and secret treasures. If we don't kill a few cultivators and steal a few storage bags, how can we make up for our losses? "

"En, Brother, quickly see what's in this old guy's storage bag!" Qi Chang eagerly looked at the storage bag in Che Zhao's hand.

Che Zhao opened the storage bag and immediately cursed, "Fuck, this old guy is probably the same as us. He spent a lot and doesn't have any precious items left. There is a restriction breaking talisman, but I don't know if it can deal with the array in the hall."

"What's the use of that? It's not like we didn't prepare a restriction breaking talisman or something like that, but we still can't get in. What should we do? If we can't find some precious talismans and secret treasures, let alone make up for our losses, it will be difficult to go back. " Li Wenju frowned. Cultivators like them relied on medicinal pills to advance. Once they lost something to rely on, they would lose confidence. In addition, those Heavenly Demons were really terrifying. If they weren't careful, they would lose their lives.

Che Zhao also frowned as he pondered. If they were to return just like that, not only would he be unwilling, he was afraid that one or two of them would perish on the way. But before he could think of a way, Qi Chang hurriedly said, "Big Brother, someone's coming!" In the distant horizon, a blue sword light vaguely appeared. Its speed was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it became clear.

Che Zhao clenched his teeth and said, "Let's go to the top of the mountain and hide. As long as it isn't Jindan Grandmaster or there aren't many people, we'll do what we did just now again!"

Qi Chang and Li Wenju didn't say anything and immediately agreed. The three of them found a few places at the top of Red Maple Mountain, concealed their auras, and hid.

…

Shi Xuan looked at Red Maple Mountain from afar. Looking at the bare stone mountain, it was really hard to imagine that this was the ancient scene of "ten thousand miles of red maple connecting to the blue sky". It gave off a feeling of the vicissitudes of time.

When they landed at the top of the mountain, Shi Xuan saw the well-preserved main hall. There was no plaque above it, and the entire main hall was black in color. It was very heavy.

Before Shi Xuan could say anything, Che Zhao saw that Shi Xuan was a Divine Soul cultivator and was alone. He was immediately overjoyed. His life source flying sword turned into a White Light and shot towards Shi Xuan. Seeing him attack, Li Wenju and Qi Chang also shot out their life source flying swords. For a time, white, blue, and yellow sword lights cut towards Shi Xuan from three different directions.

Shi Xuan felt them the moment they attacked. Moreover, he was able to judge their strength and the power of their attacks. A layer of golden starlight lit up on his body, and then the Heaven Thunder Subduing Devil Sword turned into blue lightning and flew towards Qi Chang. The sword light was very fast. In just the time it took to snap a finger, the sword light arrived in front of Qi Chang, and then there was a faint sound of thunder.

When Shi Xuan used his Profound Gold Body Protection Art, Che Zhao, Li Wenju, and Qi Chang all felt regret. The ferocious aura of an ancient giant beast, and the dao technique that he casually used, all indicated that the person in front of them was Jindan Grandmaster. At the same time, they cursed in their hearts, "You Jindan Grandmaster, just release your Jindan pressure. Why do you need to restrain your aura? Are you trying to trick us?!" What they didn't know was that Shi Xuan was afraid of being hit by the Moonlight Beast and the other Heavenly Demons.

Che Zhao made a prompt decision. He turned around and transformed into a beam of light to escape into the horizon. As for his Intrinsic Flying Sword, he did not even think before exploding it.

Shi Xuan had already killed Qi Chang with one sword strike. At the same time, after the Heaven Thunder Subduing Devil Sword pierced through Qi Chang, it was already in front of Li Wenju. At this time, seeing Che Zhao escape, Shi Xuan's hand flashed with lightning, and a blue lightning spike chased after him. However, he didn't expect that the life source flying sword would explode directly, and the rolling waves hit Shi Xuan.

Starlight erupted from Shi Xuan's body. The power of the self-explosion of the life source flying sword was just enough to shatter the Profound Gold Body Protection Art's starry daoist robe. However, when it encountered the cloudy immortal robe, it was already an arrow at the end of its flight, and it was easily blocked by the white clouds and mist.

After Che Zhao exploded his life source flying sword, he paused for a moment and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, but he didn't stop and even sped up. Seeing that he was about to leave the range of Red Maple Mountain, his heart was suddenly filled with ecstasy. As long as he was in the void, there were many broken continents that he could hide on. Jindan Grandmaster wouldn't be easy to find, and that Jindan Grandmaster wouldn't necessarily chase after him. The life source flying sword stopped Jindan Grandmaster for a while, so it could be considered a worthy death.

However, just as the smile appeared on his face, he felt a sharp pain. He could only watch helplessly as a green lightning thorn pierced through his chest. The green lightning flashed on his body, and then he fell into eternal darkness.

Shi Xuan saw Che Zhao's charred body floating in the void, no longer breathing, so he casually flicked a spark to burn the corpse to ashes and took the storage bag. This wasn't because Shi Xuan had a hobby of destroying corpses, but if he left a corpse that reeked of blood there, it would easily attract the Heavenly Demons. Even if he wasn't afraid, he would still find it troublesome.

"Senior, senior, spare us, spare us, we didn't mean it, we didn't mean it! This is a misunderstanding! " Li Wenju knelt and begged for mercy under the green sword light of the Heaven Thunder Subduing Devil Sword. However, his temperament wasn't good to begin with, so when he begged for mercy in fear, his words were incoherent.

Shi Xuan smiled mischievously. If his strength was only ordinary Divine Soul, then it wouldn't be a misunderstanding. It would be intentional and intentional, so he didn't answer and directly used the Soul Searching Technique to see if these Divine Soul Stage cultivators had found any clues here.

"It seems that other than the main hall, there really is nothing unusual in other places. En, there's actually a restriction breaking talisman. In this case, even if I don't use all my strength, I can still break the array. " Shi Xuan said to himself as he waved his hand and used the Heaven Thunder Subduing Devil Sword to cut off Li Wenju's head.

After dealing with the three corpses on the top of the mountain, Shi Xuan came to the front of the main hall. He casually cast two spells and activated the array with dense white sword energy. The ground outside the layer of white sword energy had already been cut with countless deep sword marks.

Shi Xuan first observed and calculated for a long time and found a slightly weak point in the array. Then, while holding the restriction breaking talisman, he turned the Tai Chi diagram into the Golden Paramita Bridge and stepped under the layer of white sword energy. The sound of the wind and sword energy suddenly stopped for a moment.

Taking advantage of this pause, the restriction breaking talisman emitted a boundless golden light and stuck under the white sword energy. For a moment, the golden light and white sword energy flourished, crisscrossing in the air, making a buzzing sound.

Shi Xuan had already taken a step back. The white sword energy that leaked out hit the Star Daoist Robe formed by the Profound Gold Body Protection Technique, but only caused a small ripple.

When the golden light and sword energy stopped, a big hole appeared in the layer of white sword energy in front of Shi Xuan. Moreover, the recovery speed was extremely slow. It would probably take seven or eight days for it to recover. Therefore, Shi Xuan turned into a breeze and drilled into the hole.

Shi Xuan walked to the main hall's main door and gently pushed it. The black door issued a squeaking sound and slowly opened backwards. Shi Xuan's Divine Sense swept over and after confirming that there was no danger, he slowly stepped inside.

Suddenly, a monstrous sword energy attacked Shi Xuan from the top of the main hall.
