Ming Dynasty, Hunyuan Immortal City.
After waiting for a month, Zhao Xuankang finally saw the person he wanted to see here.
He was led by Kong Shanxu into a vast courtyard in the fairy city. There was even a lake in the courtyard. The water was clear, and various colored spiritual fish were swimming around, reflecting the sunlight and making waves. Colorful waves.
Standing on the pavilion by the lake was an elegant and handsome male cultivator.
He was dressed in a dark blue robe, with a crown and a belt, and a piece of white jade around his waist. From time to time, he would take a handful of bait and throw it into the lake, attracting all kinds of spiritual fish in the lake to come here and compete for food.
"Zhenzhen Zhou is really calm. He is still so cheerful now."
Zhao Xuankang came over and saw this scene, and couldn't help but said to the male cultivator by the lake.
This person is none other than Zhou Ye, the ancestor of Jie Dan of the Five Elements Sect, and the one who inherited most of the legacy of the ancestor of Hunyuan.
"The retreat reached a critical moment a few days ago, and Master Zhao has been waiting for a long time."
Zhou Ye said with an unchanged expression, and slowly sprinkled all the bait in his hands into the lake, then turned his head and motioned for Zhao Xuankang to sit down.
"There is no need to say any more polite words between you and me. Zhou Shengqing is giving birth to a baby, so just take it seriously and do nothing."
Zhao Xuankang frowned and asked Zhou Ye.
"Then what should I do? Should I gather all the Five Elements Sect monks to kill Jumuling?"
Zhou Ye was still calm and relaxed. A beautiful and tall female cultivator in a white dress came over to make tea for the two alchemy cultivators, while Kong Shanxu brought over a new box of bait.
"Don't forget, you personally drove Zhou Shengqing out of the Five Elements Sect. When he has a baby, the first revenge he will take is to kick you out and recapture this Hunyuan Immortal City."
Zhao Xuankang's words made Zhou Ye couldn't help but smile. He took the tea handed over by the female cultivator next to him, took a sip, picked up the bait on the table again, and walked to the lake.
"What Mr. Zhao said is wrong. The second senior brother and I only have a conflict of ideas, so we will separate our families after the master passes away. If he can successfully conceive a baby, let alone this Hunyuan Immortal City, even if the entire I am willing to give him all the Five Elements Sect."
When Zhou Ye said this, there was even a smile on his lips, and he continued to sprinkle the bait in his hand onto the lake surface little by little.
The spirit fish that originally dispersed after eating were attracted again and flocked here.
"You say these things, do you believe it yourself?"
Zhao Xuankang did not drink tea. He also stood up, stood next to Zhou Ye, stared at him coldly and said.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. I have seen it clearly seventy years ago. The third senior brother and the fourth senior sister are not of the same mind as me. If I am alone, facing the three pill formations of the Shenmu Sect, first of all What I’m thinking about is how to keep my current family business, instead of risking my life with you to do something unrealistic.”
After Zhou Ye said these words, Zhao Xuankang knew that it would be impossible to incite him to deal with the Shenmu Sect.
"If you are willing to take action, I can get together seven pill-forming monks. All I need to do is go around the giant wood ridge. Even if I can't break through the Ten Thousand Wood Formation, I can still influence Zhou Shengqing to form a baby."
Hearing this, Zhou Ye frowned slightly and glanced at Zhao Xuankang in surprise.
"Which seven?"
"I, Junior Brother Xuan Shu, a casual cultivator from Dongyi to form alchemy, and three side sect cultivators whose identities need to be kept secret. If you are willing to join us, the two of us can lobby Yan Shaoyin and Kong Lingling together. We are more than half sure."
In this case, it is possible to collect up to nine pill formations!
If Zhou Ye can also command the other two members of the Five Elements Sect, the lineup will be even more terrifying.
If there are eleven Jiedan who are willing to attack with all their strength, then even the fourth-order Ten Thousand Wood Formation may not be able to stop it!
"How's that? I'm so excited!"
Seeing Zhou Ye's silence, Zhao Xuankang couldn't help but ask again. In the past half year or so, he had used all the contacts he had accumulated for more than three hundred years while in Xuanxiao Dao Palace to be able to put together such a lineup.
The purpose is to complete his efforts in one battle and completely destroy the Shenmu Sect.
"Zhenzhen Zhao, which spirit fish do you think is the most beautiful?"
At this time, Zhou Ye suddenly spoke, but pointed to a dozen colorful fish on the lake below and changed the topic.
"Let's take this one."
Zhao Xuankang didn't know what he was talking about. After taking a look, he casually pointed at a spiritual fish that was as transparent as white jade.
This one is indeed the most beautiful. It is surrounded by all the spirit fish in the center, slowly eating the bait that falls from the sky. The luster of the scales of the surrounding fish of various colors falls on its body, causing its entire body to glow with colorful luster, making it gorgeous and beautiful.
"This fish will grow to its fullest size in a year. If Master Zhao comes over at that time, how about I treat you to this spiritual fish?"
Zhou Ye smiled and pointed at the white jade-like transparent spirit fish, used his spiritual power to make a golden mark on its back, and then sprinkled all the bait in his hand.
"You like to eat, but since the death of Junior Brother Nan Xuanjing, I have no appetite at all."
Zhao Xuankang said coldly, trying to bring the topic back to Shenmu Sect.
"Life is short. We, the alchemy monks, can only live five hundred years at most, so we should enjoy ourselves in time. The taste of this colorful fish is very rare. When my master was here, I would always praise it."
When he said this, Zhao Xuankang already understood what Zhou Ye meant.
The two looked at each other and said nothing more.
"I won't wait until a year later. If you miss this opportunity, don't regret it when we destroy the Shenmu Sect in the future."
After saying this, Zhao Xuankang turned around and left the pavilion.
"Senior Zhao, I will send you..."
Kong Shanxu saw this scene and immediately chased after Zhao Xuankang.
There is a no-fly formation in Hunyuan Immortal City, and this courtyard is one of the hubs, so Zhao Xuankang needs someone to take him in and out.
"Sir, why did you wait until a year later to invite him?"
After Zhao Xuankang left, the female cultivator in white dress who had been lowering her head to make tea raised her head. She stood up and handed the teacup she was holding in her bare hands to Zhou Ye, and asked a little strangely.
"I understand Zhou Shengqing's foundation, and the results of the birth of a baby will definitely come out at that time."
"If this second senior brother really succeeds, the two of us will take the master's legacy and leave the Eastern Wasteland, leaving the Hunyuan Immortal City to him."
"If it fails, then no wonder I am cruel and ruthless, and I want to kill my family for the sake of justice."
After Zhou Ye took the celadon tea cup, he calmly expressed his plans.
"In that case, why not join forces with Zhao Xuankang now to eliminate the possibility of Zhou Shengqing having a baby first?"
The beautiful female cultivator named Luzhu has been following Zhou Ye for more than a hundred years, and the two have the closest relationship.
Zhou Ye is from a family of immortal cultivators in the Soochow realm. Due to his family's decline, he took his maid Luzhu to set up a stall in Yunmengze to hunt monsters. By chance one day, he was seen by the passing Ancestor Hunyuan. In the middle of the country, he became a disciple and began to soar to the sky. Until now, he is in charge of the first fairy city in the Eastern Wasteland and commands the five elements.
Being able to reach this point, in addition to his outstanding talent, Zhou Ye's talent and wisdom are also first-class, otherwise the Hunyuan Ancestor would not have appointed him to inherit his mantle before he passed away.
Zhou Ye: "If I do this, Third Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Sister will never have the possibility of returning to me."
Luzhu: "They're just two wallflowers, so why bother."
Zhou Ye: "If I want to practice the Hunyuan Dao Fruit on my own, I'm afraid it will be until the day when I am very old. They will definitely die before me. If they are willing to give up all their spiritual power before they die, If you pass it on to me, it will at least save me a hundred years of hard work."
Luzhu: "They are all a bunch of people who have forgotten their ancestors. It is clear that the ancestor appointed you to inherit the fairy city, but you are still unwilling to do so, and even caused a separation."
After Zhou Ye heard this, he did not comment on this. He looked at the spiritual fish marked by him in the lake and told the last reason.
"It is impossible for my second senior brother to successfully conceive a baby. Since he is destined to fail, then why should I risk upsetting my third senior brother and fourth senior sister to join forces with outsiders to attack Jumuling!"
This sentence made Luzhu very confused.
"Sir, why did Zhou Shengqing fail to conceive a baby?"
"If it's so easy to create a baby, why would I need to forcibly practice the Hunyuan Dao Fruit?"
Zhou Ye said something meaningful.
He drank all the tea in his hand and looked at the spiritual fish marked with different positions in the lake with a penetrating gaze.
…
Giant Wood Ridge.
Zhou Shengqing's pregnancy situation has reached the final moment.
Now the spiritual energy of heaven and earth near the Immortal Tree is difficult for even Chen Mobai, a pill-forming monk, to control.
Protected by Fu Zongjue, Mo Douguang could only leave Zhou Shengqing's retreat.
The three of them took turns patrolling the surroundings. In addition to the Ten Thousand Wood Formation, they also kept scanning with their spiritual consciousness to avoid enemies of the same level hiding in the dark.
Sure enough, not long after, a dark cloud floated in the distant horizon. It was defeated by Chen Mobai, leaving only the head of Ming Guan and two other ghost cultivators looming.
The other two ghost cultivators, Chen Mobai, were also very familiar with them. They were the two people who came to hang out when Meng Hong formed the elixir.
One of them was the ghost cultivator who occupied Mrs. Guo's body.
Chen Mobai was determined to try his Pure Yang Scroll again to see if this method of transforming gods had an upper limit on the characteristics of evil spirits.
But in the sky on the other side, another familiar person appeared again.
It was Xuan Shu from Xuan Xiao Dao Palace.
This is a powerful enemy. Chen Mobai considers himself no match. In order to avoid being blocked by him and unable to return to the Wanmu Formation, he can only let these three ghost cultivators go for the time being.
Besides Xuan Shu, there was also a looming figure hidden in another part of the sky. This person seemed to have practiced a secret method that could shield his spiritual consciousness. None of the three of them noticed it at first.
Fortunately, Chen Mobai's practice of Cave Spiritual Eyes had reached its peak. At one point, he noticed that the clouds on the horizon were a little out of place. After careful observation, he saw a humanoid figure hidden in it.
The one who can do this is undoubtedly a pill-forming monk.
Just don’t know who it is?
After Fu Zongjue found out, he guessed that it might be Zhao Xuankang.
But immediately, he overturned this conclusion, because a few days later, Zhao Xuankang also appeared openly. He and Xuan Shu stood together, and did not attack Jumuling. He just stood there and exerted pressure.
"As long as we don't go out in a big formation, the ambush hidden in the dark will have no effect."
Chen Mobai and the other three have been keeping their troops stationary, focusing on protecting Zhou Shengqing's baby.
After confirming this, the three of them faced off against Xuan Shu and others across the Ten Thousand Wood Formation.
Neither party said a word, just waiting in silence.
I don't know how many days and nights later, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the giant wood ridge has gathered to the extreme, turning into substantial groups of spiritual light, like hailstones the size of fists, smashing towards Zhou Shengqing.
A huge shadow rose from Zhou Shengqing's head, and the vast clear light was like a light curtain covering the sky, swallowing up all the spiritual light and turning it into his own nourishment.
The clear light became more and more abundant. From the beginning, the outline of the human figure gradually emerged with seven orifices. Then the facial features swelled and the hands and feet emerged, becoming more and more clear towards Zhou Shengqing's appearance.
"Junior brother, do you want to take action?"
Zhao Xuankang frowned slightly when he saw this scene. He was deeply afraid that Zhou Shengqing's pregnancy would be successful, so he asked Xuan Shu beside him.
"The time has not come yet."
However, Xuan Shu looked at the Ten Thousand Wood Formation that was fully activated and shook his head slightly.
“When is the right time?”
Zhao Xuankang was a little anxious, but Xuan Shu did not answer. He narrowed his eyes and stared closely at the shadow above the giant wood ridge that expanded and became wider and wider as the spiritual energy filled up.
But a quarter of an hour later, the shadow suddenly began to twist and shape.
With a sigh!
Zhou Shengqing's huge shadow in mid-air collapsed completely, turning into a clear light falling from the sky!
Conception failed!
"It's now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the bright and dazzling golden light was like a meteor from the sky, lighting up in Xuan Shu's palm, and in an instant it spanned half the sky and landed over the Giant Wood Ridge.
Chen Mobai, who had been staring at him for a long time, immediately flew out the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror to block the sun-shooting magic.
There was a muffled sound!
The golden meteor hit the hemispherical light shield, and brilliant sparks burst out over the giant wood ridge, causing the air to explode and the airflow to roar.
call! call! call! call!
After Zhou Shengqing failed to conceive a baby, Xuan Shu and Zhao Xuankang no longer had any worries. After one blow, they took action again, each throwing four golden swords with both hands.
The Ten Thousand Wood Formation is activated!
An emerald green light shield suddenly lit up, covering the entire giant wooden ridge. Jin Ge fell on it, only causing a little ripple, and then all its power was removed and it fell to the ground.
But the two men's action was just a signal.
After Jin Ge, the three ghost cultivators also took action. Scarlet, jet black, and dark green three strange spiritual powers burst out, and each controlled three red flowers, bone beads, and scimitar instruments to slash at the Ten Thousand Wood Formation.
With a bang, the Ten Thousand Wood Formation shook again after being impacted by the three ghost cultivators.
In an instant, Jumuling was besieged by five Danjie!
