Three days later, Chen Yuan selected nine Celestial City's Castellans, Zhige Swordmaster Xu Gongming, Yingyang Swordmaster Long Jingcheng, a total of twelve people, and went to the Extreme Heaven, borrowing the strong wind to go to the Shenwu Mountain. The rest were left to guard the mountain.
Chen Yuan was silent along the way. The person he sent to Kwantam-in had sent a letter back, saying that the seal had not been broken. However, Sect Master Goh Su-min had abandoned the school, and no one knew where she went. Even Priest Zhang, whom Shang Qingjun mentioned several times in his letters, had also left.
Pavilion Master Senchu, on the other hand, took a pill and committed suicide one day before they arrived. After asking the spies in the school, they found out that Shang Qingjun seemed to have had a conflict with Kwantam-in, but because the incident happened outside the school, and it ended very quickly, no one was clear about the specific situation.
Chen Yuan was worried that if the other three sects found out about the seal, they would definitely come looking for them. How could they let Fengxiang sword school monopolize it?
Long Jingcheng saw his gloomy expression and understood what he was worried about, so he advised, "Sect Master, don't worry. Zhu Shidi has already seen that the seal will be broken in at most ten days. As long as we can drag this period of time, even if others find out, we won't have to be afraid."
Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Let's hope it's as Elder Long said."
At this moment, a small sword suddenly flew over. Long Jingcheng noticed it and stretched out his hand to grab it. He took out the silk cloth from the sword hilt and shook it open to take a look. He raised his head and said, "Sect Master, Ku Xin Sect left a day ago."
Chen Yuan said, "How many people did he bring this time?"
"Only ten people, a little less than us."
Chen Yuan's face did not show anything, but his mood was slightly relaxed. In comparison, he had more people in his hands, so he had the upper hand.
Long Jingcheng asked in a low voice, "Sect Master, are you going to capture Brother Shang immediately when you arrive there, or wait until the winner is decided after the two of them fight?"
Chen Yuan said in a low voice, "Since there is a fight, we should follow the rules. How can Fengxiang sword school interfere? It won't be too late to capture him after the two of them fight. "
He sighed again. "I've seen that Daoist Zhang at the banquet, and he's indeed extraordinary. Junior Apprentice Brother Shang could defeat He Yizhu's group of a hundred, and yet he's still not a match for this person.
Long Jingcheng, however, was not convinced. He snorted and said, "That Priest Zhang must have relied on something else to have such ability."
Chen Yuan looked over and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Long Jingcheng said, "I am not speaking nonsense. I heard that Mao Wuwei exchanged the pearl in his hand with that Daoist Zhang. Qiao Huanjuan tried to please this person many times, so that item could not be kept. Sect Master, think about it, at least three precious pearls are in his hands, plus his supernatural power and Dao techniques are not ordinary, so it is reasonable for him to defeat Brother Shang."
Chen Yuan frowned and said, "But I tried many times, but I still could not use this treasure. Later on, I asked Master Gan, and he said that this item needs to be nourished by the blood of many Yuanying cultivators to be used, and the side effects are not shallow. He advised me to seal this item and not to use it recklessly. Even our Fengxiang sword school could not do it, so how can a small Shenwu Mountain do it?"
Long Jingcheng lowered his head and said, "That is unknown, maybe he has some other secret technique. It is a pity that when the two of them fought, there was no outsider at the scene, so we could not see the specific situation, or else we would be able to see a thing or two."
Chen Yuan said, "Wait till we catch Shang Qingjun, then we will know."
Feng Xiang and the rest flew for more than twenty days, and the majestic mountain of Shenwu Mountain that pierced through the clouds could be seen.
Chen Yuan turned around and saw that everyone's faces were filled with fatigue. As they were afraid of missing out on the battle between the two of them, they did not stop for even a moment to rest along the way, relying entirely on the support of medicinal pills. Now that they were about to reach their destination, he said, "Elder Long, come and take care of the strong wind, everyone can rest for a while."
Elder Long immediately accepted the order and went to a high place. The three astral clouds above his head rotated, and he took out a spell to slowly repel the astral wind.
Everyone gathered in one place, took out their instruments and sat down, then took out pills and consumed them to recover their mana.
Long Jingcheng saw his junior apprentice-brother Xu Gongming standing guard at the side, so he said with a smile, "Junior apprentice-brother, you don't have to stand guard here. This is above the Extreme Heaven, you can see everything at a glance, even if someone comes, there is no need to be so anxious. We still have to hurry, you should go and rest first."
When Xu Gongming heard that, he hesitated for a moment, but he also felt that what Long Jingcheng said was reasonable, so he cupped his hands and said, "I will replace senior apprentice-brother later."
With a shake of his hand, he released a treasure boat and went into the inner room. Maybe it was out of habit, but he still put down the curtain and activated the restriction, only then did he rest at ease and rest.
Long Jingcheng shook his head and smiled, he thought to himself, This junior apprentice-brother Xu is too careful.
Just as this thought appeared in his mind, he suddenly frowned and exclaimed in surprise. It turned out that the astral wind outside had suddenly become much stronger.
At this moment, everyone was adjusting their breathing, so they could not make any mistakes. He quickly used his mana to try and calm the astral wind, but when he tried, he realized that the spiritual vigor was stagnant, and he could not circulate it. He could not help but be shocked, and when he wanted to use another layer of mana, the astral wind suddenly disappeared without a trace. He had no choice but to retract his mana, but at this moment, a strong force suddenly rushed over, and he was caught off guard, so he could not maintain his mana. He exclaimed, "Everyone, be careful!"
Without his support, the astral wind blew in, and everyone was originally relaxed, so they did not have time to defend themselves. They were immediately wrapped up by the surging wind, and all of them were dizzy. Only Xu Gongming's boat was protected by the restriction, so he did not look too bad, but he was also blown far away by the wind.
Chen Yuan's reaction was the fastest. After he got rid of the astral wind, he immediately used his mana to try and calm the turbulence down, but the wind was too strong, and he could not do anything for a while, so he said, "Everyone, don't panic, quickly follow me down to the Extreme Sky."
Amidst the whistling wind, his voice could be heard clearly.
After everyone heard it, they also came back to their senses, and just when they were about to do as he said, they were all shocked when they tried. The spiritual vigor around them was disturbed by someone, and the astral wind swept and swirled like a tide, and at this moment, they could not break through the astral clouds at all.
Long Jingcheng also felt that something was wrong, but he still did not dare to believe that someone dared to make a move here.
Because of the astral wind raging above the Extreme Sky, if one did not calm down to control it, he would not even be able to stabilize his body, and regardless of whether it was attacking or defending, it would be several times more difficult. If he did not handle it well, it would be a small matter if he died, but his Primordial Spirit would immediately be crushed on the spot.
At this moment, in a place where there was no one, three crystal beads suddenly appeared, turned into three rays of yellow light, and flew towards a Celestial City Lord nearby.
Just Now, that person had already used a magic treasure to protect himself, but he could not withstand the attack of the beads at all. There was a thunderous sound in the air, and the magic treasure was already broken, and his head was cracked open, and he died.
The yellow light came up and wrapped around him, swallowing all his tendons, blood, bones, and flesh. With this nourishment, the light became a little brighter than before, and turned around to rush towards another person.
Because everyone was blown away by the astral wind, and they could not even take care of themselves, they only noticed the change in this place when there was a sound.
A divine light appeared in Chen Yuan's eyes, and he shouted fiercely. He pointed his hand, and the profound sword on his waist flew out in an instant, bringing along a ray of bright light, traversing a few miles, and rushed in front of the yellow light, and collided with it from afar. With a cracking sound, as if gold and jade had shattered, the magic sword trembled, and was shaken back. The three rays of yellow light were also blocked, and they were forced to show their original appearance.
He took a careful look and saw that it was three round pearls that were brilliant like crystal, and they were enshrouded in mist and mist. They seemed like Immortal Treasures on the outside, yet they were unable to conceal the waves of evil and fishy aura coming from them. He was stunned, and then he immediately understood what they were. He looked around and said angrily, "Shang Qingjun, are you the one causing mischief?"
However, no one answered him. The three crystal pearls split up and actually split into three different directions, each of them attacking in a different direction.
Chen Yuan shouted, "Elder Long, Junior Brother Xu, block one path with me. These beads are vicious, everyone, get close quickly, and don't show off."
Long Jingcheng and Xu Gongming listened to his order, and went to block it, but when they came into contact with the yellow light formed by the crystal beads, there were two explosions, and the two of them could not withstand it. Blood spurted out from their mouths, and they were sent flying far away, even the profound swords in their hands wailed.
The sword in Chen Yuan's hand was the sect master's Imperial Sword, and it was far more powerful than the other five profound swords. It was able to successfully block the star beads, but he had no time to help the others. In just a few breaths, three more people died, and their blood essence, bones, and flesh were all absorbed, and the color of the beads had already become bright red.
Seeing that it was impossible to continue like this, he immediately let out a long roar, and took out the Mysterious Floating Sword. Thousands of white rainbows gathered, and the surrounding turbulence was suppressed, but this could only subdue the surrounding turbulence within a mile, and he could not care about anything further. He transmitted his voice, "Everyone, go quickly, this is the sect master's order, don't disobey it."
Fengxiang Sword School's rules were strict, and if there was even the slightest violation, there would be severe punishment. After Long Jingcheng and Xu Gongming heard this, they did not hesitate to ride on their swords, and broke through the clouds, and went down to the sky. But the others were not so lucky, and they were all killed by the star beads, and their flesh and blood were devoured.
In the end, only Chen Yuan was left in the field, and four yellow lights flew over, surrounding him from all directions.
He only looked at them coldly, and did not help them.
A thousand feet away, the spiritual vigor changed, and Guo Yuan Jun walked out from his hiding place. There was a flag fluttering on top of his head, and he looked down, and said, "Chen Yuan, if you hand over the treasure bead quickly, I can let you live."
Chen Yuan looked at the flag on top of his head, and the corner of his eyes twitched, and he was shocked.
If he did not see wrongly, this item should belong to Elder Kim of Ku Xin Clan, and he could use it to hide himself. Now that it appeared in the hands of this person, the ending was obvious, and from this, He Yizhu and the others were likely to be killed. He said in a deep voice, "So this is a trap that you deliberately set."
Guo Yuan Jun nodded and admitted, "That's right, Sect Master Chen, don't you think it's too late for you to know this now?"
This time, he purposely spread the news that he wanted to fight with Zhang Yan, and attracted Ku Xin Clan and Feng Xiang Clan to come, and he ambushed and killed them. So far, he had obtained the blood of eighteen Yuanying cultivators, and he had already made up for his previous losses.
Chen Yuan stared at him, and said sternly, "You are not Brother Shang, who are you?"
Guo Yuan Jun laughed, and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Sect Master Chen. If it wasn't for the help of Fengxiang Sword School, how could I escape so easily?"
He had been trapped by the mighty people for ten thousand years, and his spirit was already at the point of dissipating. If no one opened the seal, it would disappear by itself, and because of Fengxiang Sword School, he could see the sky again.
Chen Yuan was not stupid, and after thinking about the cause and effect, he had already guessed some of the truth. When he thought that this person was very likely to be the evil demon from ten thousand years ago, his heart gradually sank, and his original fighting spirit also faded. He took out his sword, and then used his finger to touch the sword, and streaks of crystal rainbow shot out, like electric arrows, and hit the four Yuanying so hard that they kept retreating.
After doing this, his face was pale, and he almost could not stand still. He forced himself to jump up, and the sword light curled up, and a wisp of smoke flew up, and he flew towards the south.
Guo Yuan Jun did not seem surprised, and looked at Chen Yuan's flying silhouette, and said from afar, "Sect Master Chen, keep the Yuanying beads, when I get out, I will come to your sect to get them."
