In the air, scenes constantly appeared before the eyes of the five elders of Shushan. The young man held a sword with a sinister expression and spoke in a cold tone, revealing his extremely ugly face.
As the scene changed, the five elders of Shushan had extremely unsightly expressions, especially Elder He Yang, whose eyes were gloomy and emitted killing intent.
When the young man blurted out the words "old bastard," Elder He Yang closed his eyes and struck out with his palm, instantly turning the young man's corpse into a bloody mist.
"Evil creature …"
Elder He Yang spat out a mouthful of blood and his face was pale. Obviously, it was caused by the qi and blood attacking his heart.
The young man was his only disciple in a hundred years. In his eyes, the young man had both moral character and outstanding aptitude, but he never thought that one may know a person's face but not his heart.
Qing Wei waved his horsetail whisk and a storage ring on the ground appeared in his hand. He checked the contents of the ring and sighed.
"It's all some ordinary immortal arts, but this matter must be investigated strictly. I didn't expect that Shushan would still have clowns secretly scheming against him after a hundred years of keeping a low profile. It's our negligence."
Elder He Yang suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and a forced smile appeared on his pale face. Soon after, the smile turned into endless coldness.
"Senior Brother, please leave this matter to me. Shushan won't allow traitors to exist!"
Qing Wei shook his head and said indifferently, "Leave this matter to You Xuan. Although it's just qi and blood attacking your heart, you need to recuperate. If it's serious, it will affect your Dao Heart."
Coldness flashed through You Xuan's eyes. Although they no longer left the mountain and weren't as sharp as before, they were still Earth Immortals and weren't something some clowns could scheme against.
Glancing at the True Martial Hall, Qing Wei was somewhat helpless and said, "Rest well. We'll talk about today's matter another day."
After Qing Wei and the other elders left, Elder He Yang stood in front of the hall and looked at the scene around Megrez Peak. His hair turned even whiter, and he finally sighed.
…
…
Mu Qingxiao didn't care about what happened outside the hall at all.
This matter was only a small episode for the great Shushan. Even if the young man used immortal arts to sentence Shushan, it was impossible to shake Shushan's foundation.
Shushan was a colossus, and some forces were just clowns. Otherwise, they wouldn't be plotting in the dark.
Mu Qingxiao wasn't interested in the fight between sects. However, this incident had given him a deeper understanding of the power of the Earth Celestial Stage.
Mu Qingxiao threw her emotions to the back of her mind as her gaze fell on the True Martial Hall.
The True Martial Palace Hall was Shushan's forbidden area. Although the traitor was a disciple of Elder He Yang, he didn't have the qualifications to enter the True Martial Palace Hall.
Even if he wanted to learn more advanced cultivation techniques, he could only ask his elders.
The entire inner hall was about the size of a football field. Bookshelves were arranged in a tight and orderly manner. There were about 50 bookshelves, and the bookshelves were filled with bamboo slips.
Other than the bookshelves, there was nothing else in the room.
At this moment, Elder He Yang walked in from the door and looked at Mu Qingxiao with a complicated expression.
After a while, Elder He Yang suddenly felt a bit awkward and said, "Although the immortal spells here are of a high level, they are not of the highest level."
Hearing this, Mu Qingxiao was a bit amused. This old man was really concerned about his reputation.
"Although I'm qualified to be an elder, my age and experience are not as good as yours. Please don't take my previous rudeness to heart."
"It doesn't matter. You also know that this is Shushan's forbidden area. How could we leave the most important thing here unguarded? Follow me."
Elder He Yang didn't seem to care about what had just happened. Although Mu Qingxiao had killed his disciple, he was also helping Shushan clean up the sect.
He wasn't muddle-headed, so he could distinguish right from wrong.
Nodding thoughtfully, Mu Qingxiao followed behind Elder He Yang and walked slowly among the bookshelves.
After a short while, they arrived at the center of the True Martial Palace Hall. Elder He Yang stopped in front of a bookshelf and stretched out his hand to gently press the bamboo slips on the bookshelf.
BOOM!!!
Suddenly, the entire True Martial Palace trembled in an instant. Soon after, a speck of light slowly appeared in the palace hall, and the fifty bookshelves began to move.
Mu Qingxiao looked around, then looked down at her feet. A trace of shock flashed through her eyes.
"It's not the bookshelves, it's the ground that's moving. He actually used a formation on the True Martial Palace."
"He didn't use it on the True Martial Palace, but the entire True Martial Palace is the formation itself. When our founder built the True Martial Palace, he integrated a formation into it."
Elder He Yang's tone was full of respect and pride. Back then, their founder, the Taiqing Spiritual Master, had suppressed an entire era, and Shushan was the leader of the White Alliance.
Although that era had passed a long time ago, it was still worth bragging about. Although Shushan wasn't as strong as before, he wasn't weak either.
After the rumbling sound dissipated, the positions of the bookshelves had clearly changed, but they were still in order.
At this moment, in the center of the True Martial Palace, which was in front of the two of them, there was a passageway. The passageway was bright, and the stairs were clearly illuminated.
There was no need to say what was at the end of the passageway. Mu Qingxiao said, "Elder He Yang is injured, so we won't bother you."
"Fine, come out as soon as possible. The switch is on the left side of the entrance."
Elder He Yang wasn't afraid that Mu Qingxiao would do something to Shushan. After saying that, he didn't stay any longer and turned to leave.
Mu Qingxiao smiled bitterly. Elder He Yang really didn't worry about him. Or rather, he didn't worry that he would run away with the cultivation method.
If it was before, Mu Qingxiao would still have some confidence. But now, he was sure that he couldn't escape from an Earth Immortal. Just the pressure alone could confine the space.
Besides, apart from Elder He Yang, Shushan still had Elder You Xuan and the other elders, and there was also the unfathomable old man Qingwei.
After Elder He Yang left, Mu Qingxiao walked directly into the passageway. In the next second, the passageway was closed, and there wasn't a single gap in the wall.
The walls of Shushan's palace were made of some unknown material. They were extremely hard. Even a Star Fall couldn't compare to them.
Of course, if he used all his strength with the Soul Swords, he might be able to cut a path out.
The passageway was bright, and the walls on both sides were inlaid with incomparably huge luminous pearls. Any one of those pearls would be priceless treasures in the secular world.
The passageway wasn't long. After a few steps, he reached the end.
At the end of the passageway was a small stone room. There were four bookshelves in the room, and there was a faint smell of sandalwood in the air.
Mu Qingxiao went to the bookshelf and picked up a bamboo scroll. As soon as he opened it, the System's notification sounded in his mind.
"Ding! 'Innumerable Sword Technique' is being recorded. High-level sword technique, worth 50000 plundering points."
Slightly stunned, Mu Qingxiao's lips curled into a smile. This was indeed the foundation. Any random bamboo scroll recorded a high-level sword technique.
After the sword technique was recorded by the System, Mu Qingxiao put the bamboo scroll back on the shelf and picked up the second scroll.
