"Damn it, how could this be?" In a stone forest outside the Jade Wall Gate, the eldest disciple of the Hidden World Star Palace, Jian Qingxuan, was hiding behind a huge rock. He was holding a mirror-like object with a ferocious look on his face.
And the strange thing was that the mirror was still emitting a faint brilliance. In the mirror, there was a strange scene flashing at this time. A martial artist was pressing his hand against a light shield and continuously activating his power. The other martial artists all had vigilant looks on their faces!
If Ling Dong saw the situation in the mirror, he would have screamed out in shock.
Not for anything else, but because the mirror in Jian Qingxuan's hand was showing the situation in the seemingly closed Heaven Receiving Platform. Every change was reflected in a timely manner. Even the expressions on people's faces could be seen clearly!
"How could this be? Did Bai Lianxing take the wrong medicine? Why hasn't he made a move yet? Does he want to give the Stars Reiki to Ling Dong? "Jian Qingxuan's eyes were fixed on the picture in the mirror, but he did not see Bai Shaokui make a move!
As for the mirror, it was a small treasure of the Hidden World Star Palace, called the Yuanyang Psychic Mirror. It was a special treasure! There were two mirrors, one big and one small. When Jian Qingxuan left just now, he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to put the small mirror in a better position. This was also the reason why he could clearly see the situation in the Heaven Receiving Platform at this time!
Even though Jian Qingxuan, the eldest disciple of the Hidden World Star Palace, was extremely well-prepared, he did not expect the situation to be like this. Ling Dong's group and Bai Shaokui of the Kuixing Pavilion were actually safe and sound? And from the looks of it, Bai Shaokui seemed to have taken the wrong medicine to give away the Star Spirit Crystal to someone else.
In Jian Qingxuan's original plan, he was injured and left the scene, leaving the Stars Reiki to Ling Dong's group and the Kuixing Pavilion. For the sake of the Stars Reiki, the Kuixing Pavilion and Ling Dong's group would definitely fight to the death. When they fought to the point where both sides were injured, he would return in a flashy manner and pick the fruits of victory!
As for the injuries that he had sustained, they were nothing to worry about. The Hidden World Star Palace had such a deep foundation. How could they not give their eldest disciple some life-saving elixirs when they came?
It was a pity that Jian Qingxuan's Yuanyang Psychic Mirror could only see the images and not hear the voices of the people inside. If Jian Qingxuan could hear that Bai Shaokui had promised Ling Dong to guard against him, he would probably vomit blood in anger!
"What are you waiting for? Ling Dong is about to break the light shield and retrieve the Stellar Reiki! " Jian Qingxuan looked at the scene in the Mandarin Duck Psychic Mirror. The people inside were fine, but he was so anxious that he vomited blood!
There was nothing he could do even if he was not anxious. If Bai Shaokui and Ling Dong did not fight to the death, his Hidden World Star Palace's mission this time would be a complete failure!
In the past, there were cases where the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace did not get the Stellar Reiki. After all, with so many heroes fighting for it, it was normal for them not to get it.
However, he could not not get it this time. It was not because the Palace Master of the Hidden World Star Palace had given him a death order, but because he had led the team out this time and lost too much.
The disciples he had brought out this time were all elite disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace. They were the most elite generation, but in his hands, more than half of them were lost, and there was no harvest! One must know that in the previous trips to the Connecting Heaven Palace, even if the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace did not get the Stellar Reiki, they would bring back most of their fellow disciples in one piece. Occasionally, one or two of them would be lost because of the Stellar Reiki, and that was a big deal!
But this time, under his leadership, not only did he not get the Stellar Reiki, but he also lost six of his fellow disciples. The number of disciples lost was more than the total number of disciples lost in the last seven trips to the Connecting Heaven Palace in the past four hundred years!
If he went back like this, even if the Palace Master cherished him and did not severely punish him, Jian Qingxuan was afraid that in the future, besides having a slightly stronger cultivation base, he would be completely reduced to a useless member of the Hidden World Star Palace. At most, he would be a high-level fighter, without any power or status!
This was definitely not a situation Jian Qingxuan wanted to see. However, he was helpless now. Looking at Bai Shaokui's vigilant behavior, Jian Qingxuan wanted to kill him!
In this case, even if he forced his way in, he would probably end up like Xia Bingyan, a general without an army. If he, Jian Qingxuan, really lost all of his fellow disciples and went back alone, the Palace Master would probably kill him!
Seeing that the light shield covering the Stellar Reiki was getting thinner and thinner, and Bai Shaokui was still vigilant in all directions, without the slightest intention of making a move, Jian Qingxuan's heart sank.
"Don't tell me there's no chance?" Jian Qingxuan was a little unwilling. Thinking that he was about to lose the power and status of the number one person in the Hidden World Star Palace, Jian Qingxuan was even more unwilling!
But even if Jian Qingxuan stared at the Mandarin Duck Psychic Mirror until his eyes turned red, until the light shield covering the Stellar Reiki shattered, Bai Shaokui still showed no signs of making a move.
When he saw Ling Dong grab the prismatic Stellar Reiki in his hand, Jian Qingxuan's heart suddenly turned cold, and a trace of indescribable bitterness emerged in his heart.
He had no chance at all!
But in the next moment, Jian Qingxuan's figure suddenly stood up, and with a snap, he put away the Mandarin Duck Psychic Mirror and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Retreat!"
"Eldest Senior Brother? Aren't we going to ambush them? If we don't get the Stellar Reiki and lose so many Junior Brothers, how are we going to explain it to the Palace Master … "When he said this, there was a faint trace of sadness on Senior Brother Gong's face.
Although when he came, he knew that there might be deaths, when so many Senior Brothers who had been with him for many years passed away one by one, his thoughts of fighting for the position had faded a lot. Living was everything!
"Ambush? You think you can do that?" Jian Qingxuan had an indescribable disgust for Gong Shaonan. In Jian Qingxuan's opinion, the one who wanted to see him make a fool of himself the most was probably Gong Shaonan.
"Quickly retreat with me, I have other plans!" After choking Gong Shaonan, Jian Qingxuan quickly walked toward the exit he knew of that connected to the Heavenly Palace without looking back. Since he couldn't do it inside the Heavenly Palace, then he would do it outside the Heavenly Palace. After all, the one who obtained the treasure this time was an unknown small sect. "I will never allow anyone to deprive me of everything!" Jian Qingxuan clenched his fists tightly!
While Jian Qingxuan was in a dilemma, Ling Dong had just finished sizing up the Stellar Reiki that he had just received. His gaze once again fell on the altar. In his mind, he recalled the agreement he had with the guard Yue Yuan, or rather, the deal!
Using this Stellar Reiki to complete a ceremony on the altar, Ling Dong would receive no less than six Precious Weapons of Heaven and Earth as a reward. Specifically, Ling Dong would receive the treasures that Yue Yuan had collected over the years from the warriors who died in the Heavenly Palace!
Although Yue Yuan was suppressed here and didn't have a physical body, with Yue Feng's powerful Spirit power, he could still collect a few things.
"Shaokui, I'm going to break the seal. Please watch carefully. Below is the evidence I'll give you!" Ling Dong turned his head and said to Bai Shaokui. He looked at the jade wall doors with some surprise and walked toward the altar.
Ling Dong was very surprised that he had obtained the Stellar Reiki so smoothly. Ling Dong calculated that there would be accidents in the process, but he didn't expect to obtain it so smoothly.
"Boy, don't hesitate! Hurry up and complete the ceremony! This ceremony will only bring you benefits and no harm! Sigh … "Just as Ling Dong was walking slowly toward the altar, the voice of the guard Yue Yuan suddenly sounded in Ling Dong's mind.
At this time, the guard Yue Yuan's voice didn't have any excitement or expectation, only endless pain. Even Ling Dong could hear the pain!
"Senior Yue Lao, don't worry. As soon as I see those treasures, I'll immediately complete the ceremony!" Ling Dong replied. A trace of anticipation could not help but rise from the corners of his eyes. Six or seven Treasures of Heaven and Earth! This was definitely a piece of news that would make the entire continent's cultivators green with envy. Soon, these six or seven Treasures of Heaven and Earth would fall into Ling Dong's hands!
"You'll see those treasures when you get on the altar!" Yue Yuan's reluctant voice sounded in Ling Dong's ears again.
Ling Dong didn't say anything more and carefully looked at the altar in front of him.
The square altar in front of him wasn't big. It was only three meters square and three meters high. There were nine steps in total. Strange and mysterious runes were engraved on each step.
Ling Dong sensed with his Soul Power and didn't find anything unusual about the altar. Then, he carefully held the Star Reiki and stepped on the altar!
Seeing Ling Dong step on the altar, Bai Shaokui's eyes widened instantly. If Jian Qingxuan saw this scene, he would be so shocked that his teeth would fall out!
Because in the records of the Hidden World Star Palace and the Kuixing Pavilion, that altar couldn't be stepped on. No matter how powerful a warrior was, he couldn't step on that altar!
But now, Ling Dong stepped on the altar with a simple step. How could Bai Shaokui not be surprised?
"Sizzle!"
What surprised Ling Dong was that when he stepped on the altar, the mysterious runes on the altar suddenly lit up. When the mysterious brilliance flowed, a seven-colored mysterious light shield suddenly rose behind Ling Dong's peak, completely covering Ling Dong on the altar!
Ling Dong was shocked. He quickly looked around, but Yue Yuan's voice sounded in his mind again, "Don't worry, that's normal. It's not normal to break the Heaven's Punishment Restriction. Just go on the altar! You've already passed the Heaven's Punishment Restriction … Boy, you've hit the jackpot. Don't you know? "
Ling Dong was at a loss when he heard Yue Yuan's words. He carefully walked up the nine steps. However, nothing unexpected happened after that. Ling Dong's brows were tightly knitted together when he completely stepped onto the altar!
In the middle of the altar, there were three pillars with blood patterns. In the middle of the pillars, there was a prismatic groove, about the same size as the Star Reiki in Ling Dong's hand. The blood-patterned pillar was covered in mysterious and distant runes, and it gave off a boundless and mysterious feeling.
Other than that, there was nothing else. There was no treasure chest at all.
"Did I fall into this old guy's trap?" Ling Dong was surprised, but he suppressed his anger and asked Yue Yuan, who was hiding somewhere, "Elder Yue, where's the treasure chest you mentioned?"
"Treasure chest …" Yue Yuan's voice trembled when he mentioned these two words. "This old man's thousand years of hard work … Sigh, for … Forget it …"
After a bitter sigh, Yue Yuan's voice suddenly became firm.
