The few Enlightened Masters discussed and decided to go to the Python tribe.
Since they did not know when Lord Guo Yuanjun would make his move, the earlier they got their hands on the real treasure, the earlier they would win. Therefore, no one was willing to delay. After they finished talking, the three Zhenrens from the three sects of the south each activated their mana. They turned into Qing Qi and soared into the sky, rushing towards Jiutian.
Zheng Weixing was one step behind, he turned around and said, "Sect Leader Zhang, I'll leave my beast in the Shenwu Mountain."
Zhang Yan looked at the white rhinoceros that was lying there lazily and said, "I will send someone to take care of it, it won't starve."
Zheng Weixing didn't care and said, "This beast doesn't like to be disciplined, it doesn't matter if it starves for a few meals."
After he finished speaking, he ignored the fierce gazes and flew into the sky like the others before him.
At this moment, Spiritual Master Tao waved his sleeves and calmly dispersed the qi activity that everyone left behind. He said to Zhang Yanyan, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, this trip to the Python Tribe is full of wind and waves, let me help you with a spell scroll. As he spoke, he shot a beam of golden light over.
Zhang Yan knew what he meant. When the people from the Heavenly Abode flew into the sky, the spiritual tide caused by them was not something a Yuanying cultivator could resist. Therefore, he didn't reject them and let them fly.
He used his mana and a breeze came from all directions, sending him to the clouds. When he reached the sky, he was carried by the spiritual opportunity and flew towards the north.
For a moment, he felt the air around him rushing as if thousands of horses were galloping. There was only the sound of the wind in his ears. He didn't know how fast he was going.
Half a day had passed and he heard someone say, "It's there."
His body couldn't help but stop as he looked into the distance. A majestic celestial city came into view, it was covered by a layer of golden screen. Half of the city was submerged in the sea and the other half was on the water. There was a black reef around the city and behind it was the endless blue sky. The surrounding seawater was turbulent and the waves were crashing. The sound was so loud that it stopped the clouds.
Zhang Yan looked down and found that this city was not much worse than Zhongtai Dayang City. He wondered if the Python Tribe had expanded after they occupied the city, or if it had always been like this.
At this moment, a funnel-shaped Xuan smoke suddenly rushed up. Black Qi filled the sky above and covered the entire dome. The lower end sucked in a thin layer. Like a heavenly dragon sucking in water, a Daoist in a wide-sleeved robe could be vaguely seen standing inside. However, when he looked at the crowd, his gaze was rather unfriendly.
The group stopped immediately. Zheng Weixing looked at Tao Zhenren and asked, "Sect Leader Tao, are you old acquaintances with this person?"
Tao Zhenren smiled and walked out first. He cupped his hands and said in a clear voice, "Fellow Daoist Luo, how have you been?"
Luo Mengze's tone was indiscernible. "Fellow Daoist Tao, you've become neighbors with Qu Yue. Do you still have the mood to come to my place? "
Tao Zhenren replied, "Although there have been some misunderstandings in the past, over the past few decades, we haven't had any misunderstandings. We've gotten along well with each other. "
Luo Mengze looked at them one by one. His gaze lingered on Zhang Yan for a moment longer before he said slowly, "Why have you come to my place?"
Tao Zhenren muttered a few words and explained the situation.
Luo Mengze was silent for a moment before he said calmly, "I won't stop you if you want to search for fortuitous encounters. However, I can't let you take this treasure for free. You'll have to give me something to exchange for it."
It wasn't that he was indignant and wanted to take advantage of them, but he had to do it because of his face.
If he let them take the Dharma treasure just like that and didn't leave anything behind, then he wouldn't be able to raise his head in front of his peers in the future if word got out.
When Zheng Weixing and the others heard this, they could understand why he did this. This should be his bottom line. If he wasn't willing, it would probably be hard for him to do it.
Although the five of them were here and could completely suppress the other party in terms of advantages, who didn't have descendants and disciples?
If Daoist Dongtian didn't completely kill him, then no one would be able to withstand his counterattack. It could be said that they all had scruples in their hearts. Unless it was absolutely necessary, no one dared to make a move.
Tao Zhenren took a step back and said, "I only came to accompany Fellow Daoist Zhang. I have no intention of taking the treasure."
Zheng Weixing snorted. Although Patriarch Daimu had said that descendants and disciples couldn't take it rashly, Zheng Weixing still had the slightest hope and wanted to take a look at the forbidden land. If the treasure was willing to choose him, then it wouldn't be considered going against Patriarch Daimu's words.
He untied a warm jade pendant and threw it over. "I left in a hurry before coming here, so I didn't bring the treasure with me. This jade pendant was refined by my master from heaven. It can ward off the lightning tribulation. Giving it to Fellow Daoist can be considered making the best use of it."
At this moment, he used words to stab Luo Mengze, insinuating that he was a demon cultivator and that there would be lightning tribulation when he took human form.
Luo Mengze wasn't angry at all. He waved his hand and put the beautiful jade into his sleeve.
The woman in white pondered for a moment. Then, she pulled out a golden ornament and gave it to him.
The middle-aged cultivator muttered to himself for a while. He took out a small sword with phoenix wings that seemed to be condensed from rays of light. He activated his magic power and slowly drove it in front of him.
Luo Mengze wasn't picky. He waved his sleeve and accepted all of them.
Seeing that most of his companions had taken out items, the young man seemed to be in a daze. He searched his body for a long time but couldn't find anything. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "If I don't take back that treasure today, then I'll be making a loss."
He opened his mouth and spat out a pill jade. He held it in his hand and looked at it. He muttered a few words and finally threw it out reluctantly. He said, "This treasure can ward off the Water and Fire Divine Art three times. It's a bargain for you, old python."
When Luo Mengze took it in his hand, he wasn't as indifferent as before. He nodded at him and said, "Zhenren Ji, thank you."
Zhang Yan could tell that Luo Mengze didn't want the treasure, but the person's personal belongings. That way, he would be able to save face.
He thought for a while and chose an item. Just as he was about to take it out, Luo Mengze suddenly looked at him and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, there's no need for that. You've taken care of my niece for many years. Take it as repayment."
Zheng Weixing's gaze suddenly shot over like an arrow. He sneered and said, "Oh? How come Sect Leader Zhang and Fellow Daoist Luo were friends in the past? "
When the middle-aged Daoist and the woman in white heard that, they both looked at him.
Only the young man chuckled and said, "Old Demon Luo, to say such things in front of us, does this Fellow Daoist Zhang have a grudge against you?"
Luo Mengze ignored him and pointed downwards. A rumbling sound was heard, then he retracted his hand and said, "The immortal city's restriction has been opened. I'll only give you two hours." With that, he flicked his sleeve and left. The smoke slowly disappeared.
The woman in white rolled her eyes and said, "Fellow Daoist Zheng, since this treasure was hidden by your sect's founding master, do you know where it is hidden? Can you point it out? "
Zheng Weixing thought for a while and turned to walk forward. He said, "Follow me."
Everyone flew with him. Before long, they landed on a reef on the west side of the immortal city. He pointed and said, "It's roughly here. However, there's a restriction formation underneath. We'll have to spend some effort to find the way in."
The woman in white was unhappy and said, "Luo Mengze only gave us two hours. How are we going to find it?"
Zhang Yan had a treasure map that was given by the King of Ying. However, if he took it out now, he was afraid that everyone would be suspicious, so he looked at Tao Zhenren. He said, "Tao Zhenren is a formation master. With him here, it won't be difficult to find the way in."
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that. The young man was even more impatient and said, "Then, Tao Zhenren, please hurry up and do it."
Tao Zhenren nodded slightly. He captured a few spiritual essences. Then, he pinched his fingers and calculated. After a moment, a divine light appeared in his eyes. He pointed at the ruyi in his hand and there was a rumbling sound. A wordless enigmatic tablet rose up. He pointed at it and said, "It's here. However, the spiritual essences below are complicated and unpredictable. Only one person can go at a time. "
The middle-aged cultivator asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you have a way to break it?
Tao Zhenren shook his head and said, "The restriction here is ingenious. It's connected to the immortal city. The only way to break it is to destroy the immortal city."
The young man said, "Then we'll do it one by one."
He pouted at Zheng Weixing and said, "Zheng Daoren, since it's sealed by Ancestor Da Mi, I'll let you be the first."
No one had any objections. Firstly, this sealing formation was laid down by the Great Ancestor of Dami, so they were all on guard against it. Secondly, Zheng Weixing had the Ancestral Master's words, so the possibility of him taking away the Celestial Treasure was the lowest. It was better to let him try first.
Zheng Weixing snorted coldly and walked into the stone tablet. In less than a quarter of an hour, he walked out resentfully.
The young man asked, "Fellow Daoist Zheng, how was it?"
Zheng Weixing closed his eyes and stood there without saying a word.
Everyone looked at him and guessed that he returned without any results.
The middle-aged cultivator looked left and right. Seeing that no one said anything, he said, "Then, should I go down to look for opportunities?"
The white-clothed woman suddenly said, "Be careful, Sage Gan."
The middle-aged cultivator nodded solemnly. He cupped his hands at everyone and went back into the stone tablet.
About a hundred breaths later, the stone tablet flashed and he walked out again. The young man rushed forward and asked, "How was it?"
The middle-aged cultivator was rather carefree. He smiled and said, "I'm not fated with that treasure." He turned to the white-clothed woman and said, "Sage Hang, why don't you go and try?"
The white-clothed woman nodded and moved her feet, disappearing into the stone tablet.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, a light flashed and she walked out again. Facing everyone's gaze, she shook her head lightly. It was obvious that she didn't succeed either.
The young man rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let me go and take a look." With that, he leaped into the stone tablet.
This time, everyone waited for a quarter of an hour. The stone tablet suddenly shook and a ray of light flew out. It was the young man who ran out with his face covered in dirt. His hair was messy and his clothes were tattered. He was in an extremely sorry state.
Zheng Weixing looked at him up and down and mocked, "Fellow Daoist Ji, you used force. How can you subdue such a killing magic treasure?"
The young man said angrily, "If worst comes to worst, we'll force him to submit. He's just a masterless magic treasure. How can he withstand our combined attacks?"
The moment he said that, everyone was tempted. Just Now, they all went down to take a look. They all knew that there weren't any powerful restrictions inside, so they didn't have to worry about making a move.
Tao Zhenren said, "Fellow Daoists, everyone who came here has a fated chance. Fellow Daoist Zhang hasn't tried yet, so why don't we wait for him to come up?"
Everyone looked at each other and didn't think much of it. That true spirit was arrogant and didn't even care about them, Masters of the Heavenly Abode. Why would it choose a Yuanying cultivator? However, for the sake of Tao Zhenren, no one objected.
Zhang Yan cupped his hands at Tao Zhenren. Then, under everyone's gaze, he slowly walked to the stone tablet. He waved his sleeves and walked inside.
