"The method we used last time doesn't work so well now."
Shen Herong said as he jumped on the chair. "We can only confirm that he is in Western Zhou."
The girl's feet left the ground and swung in front of the chair. "However, they seem to have been near the Liyang Temple."
Zhang Dongyun's heart skipped a beat. "Is he also looking for me?"
"Yang Li may have possessed a disciple of the Green Cloud Temple. Through the disciple's memory, he knows about the existence of Taoist Gu Mu and the search for the Pure Yang relic."
Shen Herong speculated. "Yang Li may be like us, guessing that Taoist Gu Mu is my reincarnation. Therefore, he also has his eyes on the Liyang Temple, which is supported and cultivated by me, just like the Green Cloud Temple."
Zhang Dongyun nodded. "It seems that although he and Ying Xiao are both traitors, we are not sure about each other's situation."
Shen Herong nodded. "Yang Li is injured and lost the fragment of the Immortals. Instead of hiding and licking his wounds, he is still circling around the Liyang Temple. His goal …"
The girl looked at Zhang Dongyun. "Maybe he wants to try his luck and see if I have a fragment of the Immortals. Then he will look for an opportunity to get it."
Zhang Dongyun muttered, "He wants to use the fragment to heal."
Shen Herong nodded. "This may be the reason why he took the risk. He did not refine the fragment to heal himself before.
However, before he lost the fragment, he forcibly stimulated the fragment. Brother Eleven once said that his injury was alleviated by the fragment.
However, after that, he was empty-handed. Now he can only look for the fragment.
He does not dare to come to us. Instead, he has his eyes on me, Ying Xiao. "
Zhang Dongyun smiled faintly. "He will deliver himself to me."
Shen Herong also smiled. "He also knows that we can see through his thoughts. But if he wants to succeed, he has to take the risk. When the time comes, we'll see who has the better means."
While Zhang Dongyun and Shen Herong were in the city of Chang 'an, a Taoist priest from the Green Cloud Temple was captured by the masters of Chang' an in the east of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
A fat Daoist priest struggled with all his might, but he still couldn't change his fate of being captured alive.
In the distant mountain forest, Daoist Jing Xu watched as the fat Daoist was captured and nodded with a smile.
However, his smile quickly disappeared.
He turned to look in the direction of the Liyang Observatory, and then shifted his gaze to the Chang 'an.
A faint green light appeared in Daoist Jing Xu's eyes as he pondered in silence.
Soon, Zhang Dongyun, who was in Chang 'an, received a message from the western front.
There, they captured a disciple of the Green Cloud Temple alive. After interrogation, the disciple revealed that Immortal Ancient Wood had secretly visited the Liyang Temple in Western Zhou.
They were sent back to Invincible City.
Zhang Dongyun didn't need to interrogate him to know that what he said was true.
At least, in the mind of this fat Taoist priest, what he said was the truth.
"As expected, Yang Li wants us to fight with Ying Xiao so that he can take advantage of us," Shen Herong said with a smile.
Zhang Dongyun said indifferently, "He is the weakest among the three families. Only when we fight with Ying Xiao can he have a chance to take advantage of us."
"Shall I ask Eleventh Brother to come out of his closed-door training?" Shen Herong asked.
"Not for the time being. We'll talk about other things after we confirm the situation of the Liyang Observatory," Zhang Dongyun said.
Shen Herong nodded. "Then I'll go to Western Zhou first. Although Yang Li takes risks, he has always been cunning. This time, we have to prevent him from running away again."
Zhang Dongyun nodded. "I'll arrange for someone to go with you."
The so-called arrangement for someone to go with Shen Herong actually meant that Shen Herong was in the dark while the others were in the light.
In the eastern part of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Chang 'an suddenly intensified their attacks and forcibly tore through the Western Zhou Dynasty's defense line.
Their leader was a Ninth Realm Flying Serpent who had already cultivated the body of a Demon King.
With the Flying Serpent leading the way, Blood Shadow and the others followed closely behind. Chang 'an's army was invincible.
However, while Western Zhou was mobilizing their troops, they were surprised to find that the target of Chang 'an's army was the most famous Taoist sect in Western Zhou, the Liyang Observatory.
This made the royal family of Western Zhou feel relieved. They wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
The Liyang Observatory had always been at odds with the royal family of Western Zhou.
In the current war between the Western Zhou Dynasty and Chang 'an, the Liyang Observatory also seemed to be uninvolved.
Now that Chang 'an was willing to take the initiative to drag the Liyang Observatory into the water, the royal family of Western Zhou was naturally happy to see it.
Above the mountain gate of the Liyang Observatory, there were already balls of emerald fire rising and turning into a sea of fire to protect the mountain gate.
A Ninth Realm Taoist Perfected Master could use the terrain and treasures to set up a formation.
Taoist sects with Perfected Masters usually had a strong defensive formation as a geographical advantage.
In the past, Meng Shen and Daoist Zhichen, two Eighth Realm masters, took some time to attack the mountain gate of the Green Cloud Temple which was led by the Seventh Realm Taoist Ziye.
At this moment, Xiao Pengcheng, the master of the Liyang Observatory, was looking into the distance with a serious expression.
In the sky, a giant serpent with wings on its back and a blood-red phoenix rising from the sea of blood made his heart heavy.
Chang 'an … had really come to him.
Xiao Pengcheng took a deep breath and made a spell with both hands.
Then, the Taihuang Li Fire in the sky surged.
In the emerald sea of fire, a green bird made of flames rose.
The green bird flapped its wings and shot emerald fire at the people of Chang 'an in the distance.
The blood-red phoenix that Blood Shadow transformed into spread its wings and shot out arrows of blood to meet the fire arrows.
Emerald fire and blood-red fire arrows collided in the air.
However, the emerald fire arrows had the upper hand at this moment and destroyed the blood arrows.
The martial arts were burned by the emerald fire and disappeared completely in the sky. They could no longer be divided.
The fire arrows shot through the sea of blood and left holes in it.
The blood-red phoenix's eyes were cold.
Thousands of blood threads stretched out from under his wings. The blood threads accurately entangled the incoming fire arrows in midair.
The blood threads twisted and broke the emerald fire arrows.
However, the blood threads were also ignited. The emerald fire moved along the blood threads and burned toward the blood-red phoenix.
Blood Shadow didn't resist and broke his blood threads in time.
Then, the blood-red threads burned with emerald fire and fell downward.
Although Old Demon Blood Shadow had blocked the hundreds and thousands of fire arrows, the dark green Grand Desolation Li Fire that was falling down did not extinguish after it landed on the ground. It still turned into a green sea of fire that lay in front of everyone in Chang 'an.
At the same time, the rain of fire arrows shot out by the green bird in the distance was not just thousands, but tens of thousands.
Blood Shadow couldn't block all of them. The emerald fire arrows brushed past the blood-red phoenix.
He had been practicing the Blood Book of the Phoenix for a long time and had amazing skills. Few cultivators in the Eighth Realm could match him.
However, Xiao Pengcheng was Perfected Cultivator Xiao. After all, he was a Ninth Realm Daoist master.
Now that he had the geographical advantage of the Li Fire Array, the power of his spells was naturally extraordinary.
However, Xiao Pengcheng didn't look proud at all.
This was because the opponent he was more concerned about was the giant flying serpent.
The flying serpent looked at the emerald fire arrows and sneered.
There seemed to be two balls of black fire burning in his eyes.
In the next moment, the illusory black fire became real.
The sky full of black fire blocked the emerald fire arrows.
The Taihuang Li Fire clashed with the Earth Core Fire of the Flying Serpents. Green and black intertwined. Neither could defeat the other.
The flying serpent let out a shrill cry and then its giant body rushed into the ground and disappeared.
Seeing this, Xiao Pengcheng's face became serious.
The flying serpents had the ability to travel through the earth.
However, the Li Yang Temple's Li Fire Array couldn't defend against the underground.
The flying serpent came to the base of the Li Yang Temple and then rose up, ready to rush out of the ground.
But then, he suddenly found the disciples of the Li Yang Temple trying to bury something in the ground.
When he got closer, the things in the ground started to glow.
A terrifying heat wave came from the ground.
The disciples of the Li Yang Temple on the ground sensed the heat and ran away. At the same time, they used the mountain spring to water the ground.
When the water fell on the rocks in the mountain, it immediately evaporated into steam, causing the entire mountain gate of the Sun Leaving Monastery to be shrouded in clouds.
The flying serpent under the ground faced the heat wave directly.
"Earth Soul Flaming Heart …"
The flying serpent wasn't surprised. Before he went out, the Chang 'an informed him that the Li Yang Temple had a Heavenly Treasure Mine called the Earth Soul Flaming Heart. It was extremely rare and was the only one in the Seven Countries of the Eastern Border.
Daoist cultivators who cultivated fire spells could use this treasure to aid their cultivation.
The Li Yang Temple relied on this mine to become rich and had a thousand years of foundation.
Now, they bought the Earth Soul Flaming Heart underground to stop the flying serpents from escaping through the earth.
The flying serpent also felt the heat wave coming at him, but he only sneered.
He didn't go up.
He activated his Heavenly Earth Power.
The Li Yang Temple's base shook.
Not only did the earth and rocks under the ground split apart, they were also constantly collapsing downwards.
A terrifying gravitational force came, as if it wanted to drag the entire Li Yang Temple and everyone in it into the ground.
Xiao Pengcheng had no choice but to ask all the disciples to retreat.
Then, he made a hand seal.
The green bird formed by the Taihuang Li Fire in the sky dived down and crashed into the Li Yang Temple's base.
The green fire broke through the ground and arrived in front of the flying serpent.
Yun Xing didn't panic at all, and met the attack with his Earth Core Fire.
The black flame and the green fire collided again, causing a violent explosion that almost destroyed the entire Li Yang Temple.
In the distance, a young Daoist dressed as a disciple of the Green Cloud Temple quietly watched the great battle.
"Is Old Nine not here?"
Daoist Jing Xu muttered to himself, "At this point, if he doesn't make a move, the Li Yang Temple won't be able to hold on."
The young Daoist frowned. He couldn't help but want to make a move himself and force Immortal Ancient Wood to appear.
But after hesitating again and again, cautious thoughts prevailed in the end.
But he couldn't hide the worry in his eyes.
The back of his neck ached faintly.
His old injury gradually couldn't be suppressed and was about to relapse.
If Immortal Ancient Wood, or Ying Xiao, wasn't here, or if he didn't have a fragment of the Immortals, then Daoist Jing Xu would have to worry about how long he could hold on.
Just as he was hesitating, a warning sign suddenly emerged in his heart.
The Li Yang Temple in the distance suddenly stabilized.
However, it wasn't the help of Immortal Ancient Wood or other masters.
Instead, it was the flying serpent that stopped attacking the Li Yang Temple.
As the earth shook, Daoist Jing Xu clearly felt that the other party turned and rushed towards him!
