Ji Daoren had already gotten what he wanted for this trip so he naturally had no objections. Together with Hui Xuan Old Ancestor, they returned using the original route. This was much faster than when they came and in just less than an hour, they were back on the surface.
After they came out, the two of them raised their heads and saw the curtain covering the sky. Sheng Ge Jing had already blocked their way and they had already expected this hence they were not flustered as they stood there without moving, waiting for the people from Zhong Tai to arrive.
In just an incense worth of time, they saw a ray of light flying over from afar and in a short while, a Taoist wearing a crown and a formal attire walked out from the light. It was Elder Zhong Tai Lin.
When he saw Hui Xuan Old Ancestor, he couldn't wait and asked, "Hui Xuan, have you obtained Founding Master's personal letter?"
His words were impolite and Hui Xuan Old Ancestor was infuriated as he cupped his hands and said calmly, "Elder Lin, there is no personal letter from Founding Master Da Mi in the underground palace."
Elder Lin's face darkened as he shouted sternly, "Hui Xuan, don't you dare to play tricks!"
He used his hand to point upwards, "Look at the pillar in the sky, without my permission, don't even think of leaving this place!"
Hui Xuan Old Ancestor said unhurriedly, "Elder Lin don't be anxious, let me finish what I have to say. Although I did not obtain Founding Master's personal letter, but I have obtained another treasure so this trip is not in vain."
Elder Lin was half believing and half doubting as he said, "Since that's the case, quickly hand it over! As long as you hand it over to me, I will immediately let you go. "
Hui Xuan Old Ancestor said, "But this item is not in my hands."
"Then where is it?"
Hui Xuan Old Ancestor smiled and moved aside.
Elder Lin looked over in astonishment and when he saw Ji Daoren, a shocked expression surfaced on his face.
Hui Xuan Old Ancestor had once said that he would bring along a disciple as a helper. Just Now he saw the two of them at this moment. As he was under Zhong Tai Realm, he didn't pay much attention to it. But now that he took another look, he discovered that this person's cultivation was actually a third stage realm cultivator and he subconsciously took a step back. Panicking, he asked, "You, who are you?"
Ji Daoren saw that he was flustered and despised him in his heart, he mocked, "I am only Fellow Daoist Hui Xuan is afraid that you, Zhong Tai, are up to no good so he invited me over to help, watch carefully. This is the item I obtained from the underground palace. Hold it tight. "
With a flick of his sleeve, he threw out the Nine-Yellow Star Bead that he had obtained from the underground palace without any hesitation.
Elder Lin was extremely vigilant. Seeing a dark green bead flying towards him, he didn't dare to go forward to receive it. Twisting his sleeves, he gathered his magic power and held it in midair. Looking at it carefully, he was stunned at first, but then a look of joy appeared on his face.
The spiritual vigor in the bead was so abundant that he had never seen it before. Would it be able to shake the mountains and crack the earth? After a while, he let out a long breath, looked over and said, "Hui Xuan, you have done a good deed."
Hui Xuan ancestor said calmly, "Since that is the case, Elder Lin, please open the way."
Elder Lin made a sound of acknowledgment, he didn't want Hui Xuan to stay there any longer, so he kept the Nine-Yellow Star Bead and held it tightly in his hand, and took out a token. He waved it towards the sky and saw a crack in the sky, revealing a small exit. He said, "Hui Xuan, quickly go on your way. There might be people coming to hunt you down later, but don't worry, the sect leader knows about your contribution, it is just for show. As long as you don't make any mistakes, after you reincarnate, I, Zhong Tai, will naturally send people to look after that place. "
Hui Xuan ancestor put on a grateful expression and cupped his hands, "Then Elder Lin, please thank the sect leader on my behalf."
Elder Lin waved his hands and urged, "Let's go, let's go."
Ji Daoren didn't say a word and charged out of the sky screen first.
Hui Xuan ancestor originally thought that he would make a move, but seeing his actions, he guessed that he might have other thoughts, so he did not make a sound, bade farewell, and also headed towards the sky.
At this moment, the high clouds in the sky parted, and a ray of light landed in front of him. Qu Changzhi came out and bowed, "Master, was the trip successful?"
Hui Xuan nodded his head and turned to Ji Daoren, "Fellow Daoist threw away the Nine-Yellow Star Bead and didn't snatch it back, what do you want?"
Ji Daoren smiled faintly and said, "Even if I give it to him, can he really take it away?" He looked down and lifted his chin slightly, indicating, "In a moment, we will know."
Hui Xuan ancestor knew that he definitely had a trick up his sleeve, so he focused and looked down.
Once the two of them left, Elder Lin was completely at ease. He pinched the spiritual bead and looked at it, clicking his tongue. After looking for a while, he was about to put it into his sleeve.
But just at this moment, the bead suddenly trembled and gave off rays of spiritual light, like numerous needles piercing into the flesh and bones. When he was shone by this light, his entire body's Qi and blood surged, his vital energy and vital energy seemed to burst out of his body and poured straight into the bead.
"Not good!"
He was shocked and hastily used his Fa Li to get rid of it. But as soon as the bead left his hand, it suddenly trembled and spouted out a red mist. In a flash, the red mist surged up and surrounded him.
Elder Lin's nose instantly smelled a hot and fishy wind and instantly felt his strength disappearing. At first he was still struggling violently, but after ten breaths, his head gradually became dizzy and he no longer resisted. In the end, his vision turned black and he completely lost consciousness.
Hui Xuan ancestor saw this scene and was secretly shocked. He stroked his beard and said, "This bead indeed has other mysteries, luckily I have not made a move Just Now."
Just Now when he was in the underground palace, it was not that he did not have any greedy thoughts, but out of cautiousness, he resisted and did not make a move. Right now he felt fortunate and turned his head to take a look. He saw Ji Daoren's expression as if he had long known this would happen, so he asked, "May I ask Dao brother, is there something strange about that bead?"
Ji Daoren glanced at him and said, "I heard my sect elders say that this Nine Huang Star Bead is treacherous and evil. Every time it is used, it needs to feed on a cultivator's vital blood, and ten Yuanying cultivators are needed to nourish one bead. Even so, after using it, their vitality will be greatly damaged. If not for this restriction, how would Spirit Returning Sect be exterminated?"
He sneered again and pointed below, "This person did not know what was going on and touched it with his body, and was treated as a sacrifice by the bead."
Hui Xuan ancestor squinted his eyes. No wonder Ji Daoren was Just Now wrapping his hand with a handkerchief and did not dare to touch it. So this was the reason.
And it also made sense that he only took one Star Bead. With just one Star Bead, if he wanted to use it, who knows how many cultivators' vital blood would be used to nourish it. With nine in his hands, why would he find so many cultivators to nourish it? Even if he took it, it would be useless.
After the two of them waited for a hundred breaths, the red mist below dissipated, revealing a thin piece of human skin that floated down.
In just a short while, a Yuanying cultivator's vitality was sucked dry by it.
When Daoist Ji saw that the Nine-Yellow Star Pearl's brilliance was even brighter, he was pleased. He waved his hand, wanting to retrieve it, but this time, it was not as easy as before when he used his Dharmic power. The pearl actually struggled and escaped from his grasp.
Ji Daoren was also stunned and wanted to cast his spell again. But this time, he still could not catch it. Instead, the Nine-Huang Star Bead let out a sharp whistle and spread far away. Then, with a "xiu" sound, it shot up to the clouds like a firework. It paused for a moment and with another boom, it turned into a thin jade line and flew towards the south. Its momentum was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon.
It happened so suddenly that Ji Daoren also did not expect it. Seeing that the treasure that he had just Just Now ran away just like that, he was anxious and angry. He roared angrily and his figure suddenly moved. Like a rainbow, he soared into the sky and chased after it.
Hui Xuan old ancestor was also stunned by this unforeseen event. After his expression changed a few times, he finally relaxed a little.
He saw a clue. Ji Daoren looked like he was very familiar with this treasure bead but he obviously did not know some key points. Otherwise, why would he make such a mistake?
But this person's departure messed up his original plan. Just as he was about to think of a way, he heard a rumbling sound in his ears. The sound was distant and boundless, reverberating in the mountains. He couldn't help but look over in surprise and discovered that the sound was actually coming from the southwest dragon pillar. His thoughts turned and his expression changed slightly. He said to Qu Changzhi, "Quickly go!"
As soon as his words landed, he and Qu Changzhi used their escape techniques and flew towards the west.
On the golden platform, sect leader Qiao was exchanging toasts with the heads of the three sects. At this moment, he suddenly paused and looked towards the southwest.
He Yizhu also put down her wine cup and listened carefully. She said, "This sound, seems to be coming from the direction of the dragon pillar."
Chen Yuan and Mao Wuwei both looked towards sect leader Qiao.
Even though sect leader Qiao had an agreement with Hui Xuan old ancestor, he didn't ask him to make such a big commotion. It was just that at this stage, he could only go according to the previous plan. He looked at the few people seated and cupped his hands, "Everyone don't look at me, I also don't know what exactly happened. Why don't we wait for a while, I think there will be disciples coming to report."
He Yizhu sneered and said, "Wait? If we wait for a while more, I'm afraid that the thing below the dragon pillar will disappear to who knows where. "
Sect leader Qiao pretended to be displeased and said, "What does He Zhangmen mean by this? If you don't believe my Zhongtai sect, then why don't you follow me to take a look. "
Zhang Yan raised his brows at this moment, stood up and walked to the side of the golden platform. His sleeves behind his back, his eyes glimmered as he looked far into the sky.
Sect leader Qiao saw his actions and asked in surprise, "Zhenren Zhang? Is there anything wrong? "
Zhang Yan said in a deep voice, "I Just Now Sensing spiritual opportunity, I feel eight strong Qi channels surging, the closest one is the southeast dragon pillar, I think other than this pillar, the other seven dragon pillars also have some unusual movements."
At the same time, the Nine Huang Star Pearl seemed to have received some kind of summons and was flying rapidly towards the south, Ji Daoren had long been left behind by it and disappeared without a trace.
It only took a day and a night for the pearl to travel from Dongsheng Northland to the Southern Continent. When it reached the borders of the Great Chen Nation, it didn't stop at all. It flew straight in the direction of Nanwu Mountain's Guandan Courtyard.
After another half a day, it reached the boundary. This place was not where the celestial city was located, so there was no prohibition formation. In addition, the disciples of the sect were forced by the miasma recently, so most of them meditated in the cave abode, and there was no one patrolling the mountain. Therefore, it was unimpeded all the way into the inner hall, and after making one round, it sank into the ground and disappeared.
Zhang Boyan was refining medicine in the pill room at this moment, but he felt a sense of fear in his heart for no reason. His hands trembled, and the fire head was not directed properly. The earth fire rushed up, and a burnt smell entered his nose. He knew that this furnace of medicine was ruined. He frowned unconsciously, not because of this furnace of medicine, but Just Now, at that moment, he felt like he was being targeted by some ferocious creature.
