Guifeng City is built among a weird and steep mountain, so it has such a weird name.
These mountain peaks are rugged with rocks, very few plants, soil, and very few animals, but they are rich in a very special kind of spiritual crystal.
Ghost Peak City was built here mainly to mine this kind of spiritual crystal.
While flying rapidly to the west, when passing a mountain peak, Xu Wen suddenly paused. The Silver Dragon Order emitted a faint brilliance and pointed directly at a mountain peak not far away.
This silver dragon order was applied for by Hao Zelong for him. There is a trace of Hao Zelong's breath on it, which can sense the other party's presence.
The Earth Hearing Technique was activated with all its strength, and a moment later, Xu Wen flashed forward and rushed straight towards the mountain range.
The moment it came into contact with the mountains, the Earth Escape Technique was activated and it quickly rushed underground.
Somewhere underground, someone dug out a huge underground airdrop at some point, with eight giant dragons of various shapes standing in the air.
A large formation has been set up on the ground, which is engraved with all kinds of strange spiritual inscriptions, talismans, and spiritual stones. A strange and wild aura fills the entire cave.
In a secret room outside the cave, a man with swollen eyebrows and a high nose, who somewhat resembled Hao Zelong, was in charge. It was Hao Pinglong.
Sitting on both sides were Hao Zelong, Yao Bihua and two golden elixirs. There were four or five other foundation builders, but they all had no seats and could only stand.
Hao Zelong's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, as if he had just been beaten. Yao Bihua's breath was weak, probably because he was still injured.
"My good brother, I'm going to have to sacrifice something from you later!"
Looking at Hao Zelong with an angry look on his face, Hao Mirage said with a smile.
"Hao Pinglong, you gave birth to a son without an asshole. How dare you act like this? If my father and all the ancestors knew about it, they wouldn't let you go?"
Hao Zelong cursed loudly.
Hao Pinglong took his time and said with a smile:
"My good brother, you still don't know much about our Hao family."
Having said this, he stood up suddenly, raised his hands to the sky, and said loudly:
"My ancestors always only looked at the results, not the process. We can swallow a few useless biological children in one gulp, let alone you and me?"
"As long as I achieve the golden elixir, no matter what method I use, even if I swallow your blood alive, my ancestor will not criticize me at all, and will only think that I am a material that can be made!"
"As for your father..."
Hao Mirage chuckled and said coldly:
"Man said I was promoted to Jindan, even if I am just a foundation builder, what can he do to me!"
Although he knew the other party's plot, Hao Zelong was still extremely shocked and angry when he said it so nakedly.
The Hao family's Nine Dragon Chariot True Secret is very special and requires extremely thick dragon blood to activate it.
The thicker the blood, the more powerful the technique, and the easier it is to break through.
Those clansmen whose bloodline is too weak cannot even get started, and are not even qualified to add the word "dragon" to their names.
Of course, Hao Tianlong's Nascent Soul Dzogchen does not lack other techniques for future generations, but he will definitely not pay attention to or give guidance.
Therefore, in the Hao family, bloodline is the prerequisite for everything.
The reason why Hao Zelong was so courteous to Xu Wen was because he felt that the abundant dragon energy in Xu Wen's body could help him break through the golden elixir bottleneck.
As for Hao Pinglong, his father Hao Jinlong was originally the second generation Jindan master of the Hao family, just like Hao Zelong's father Hao Yunlong.
But decades ago, Hao Jinlong advanced to Yuanying and became the second Yuanying monk in the Hao family.
With Laozi in the Nascent Soul stage, Hao Pinglong suddenly became unscrupulous in his actions.
Not only searching for spiritual objects everywhere to enhance his bloodline, he also directly devoured the bloodline of other dragon-named children of the Hao family.
After inquiring about the itinerary of Hao Zelong and his party, he suddenly took action and blocked them in Kuanhai City.
If Yao Bihua hadn't seen the opportunity early, discovered him, and asked Wu Gandang to escape early, Hao Zelong and his party would have been wiped out.
This underground place is not an ordinary place, but a weak dragon vein.
Under the subdivision of spiritual veins, there are many types. Dragon veins are spiritual veins with a hint of true dragon energy.
For ordinary monks, this spiritual vein is not much different from other spiritual veins, but for the Hao family, it is a treasure, which can at least increase the success rate of Jindan promotion by 10%.
Hao Pinglong has also completed the foundation building and is only waiting for an opportunity to be promoted to Jindan. Looking at the surrounding layout, he has been operating here for a long time and is just waiting for the opportunity.
And Hao Zelong, who has already completed the foundation building process and is only one step away from breaking through the golden elixir, is the Hao family member with the dragon character, which is his best medicine guide.
The reason why he doesn't take action now is not because he is a talker, but because he has to wait until every moment, when the dragon energy of heaven and earth is the strongest before he can start to implement it.
When he said this, it was when Xu Wen arrived, and when he felt the Silver Dragon Order appearing nearby, Hao Zelong suddenly felt happy.
Although it was just a slight change in his heart, the two Jindan sitting opposite him still realized something was wrong and suddenly stood up together.
Hao Pinglong's face changed slightly, and after thinking for a moment he said:
"Is it Xu Wen who invited you to the Endless Sea? Does he have the means to help you advance to the Golden Core?"
"You guys have a really good friendship, and you actually pursued me here!"
Before he could think of how to respond, Xu Wen appeared in the secret room in a flash of light.
The formations and guards arranged by Hao Pinglong outside were just decorations to Xu Wen.
"Earth Escape Technique!"
Seeing Xu Wen appearing from the cliff above their heads, Hao Pinglong and others were extremely surprised and shouted in unison involuntarily.
They are not ignorant little people. Just by Xu Wen's pure earth escape technique, he can know that the other party is definitely not easy to mess with.
Xu Wen ignored Hao Zelong and the others, strode forward, and with a few clicks of his fingers, all the restrictions on Hao Zelong and others were removed.
"Brother Xu...senior!"
Seeing Xu Wen, Hao Zelong was surprised and happy.
"Let's take a rest first!"
After patting him on the shoulder, Xu Wen turned to look at Hao Pinglong and the others.
Being ignored in this way, the two golden elixirs on Hao Zelong's side were furious. When Xu Wen was trying to save Hao Zelong, they were about to take action, but they stopped at the same time.
They glanced at each other, and each saw a look of horror in the other's eyes.
The moment they were about to take action, a frightening feeling arose in their hearts at the same time, forcing them to stop.
The one who can give them this feeling is at least Yuanying Zhenren or something of the same level.
Hao Pinglong was not an idiot. Seeing the two of them like this, he immediately understood that the situation was not that simple.
Both of his enshrinements were at the middle stage of Jindan cultivation, and their methods were even more extraordinary. With just one attack, Yao Bihua was seriously injured in three strikes.
Now facing Xu Wen with his back to them, two against one, they did not dare to take action. The reason was obvious.
Instead of humiliating himself, Hao Pinglong laughed and said:
"It's Senior Xu Wen, right? My father, Hao Jinlong, likes to chat with talented people from all walks of life. If Senior Xu is free, you can go to Qianlong City to chat!"
He is not a pure playboy, and in an environment like the Hao family, there is no room for a playboy to survive.
Knowing that Xu Wen was unable to defeat the enemy, he immediately changed his strategy and prepared for pressure.
Hao Jinlong is the Nascent Soul True Monarch, and he is also a Nascent Soul True Monarch with a strong backing like the Hao family. No matter how strong Xu Wen is, he must be wary.
No matter which world you fight for, it’s the same in the world of cultivation.
Having a good father is the greatest capital. Wouldn't it be foolish not to work hard?
Hao Pinglong had a good idea. If other forces had dared to detain Hai Hualu and others and take away their magical weapons, Xu Wen would have gone on a killing spree and wiped them all out.
The reason why he didn't do that was because he didn't want to have any grudges with the Hao family and Hao Jinlong.
To put it bluntly, the fight between Hao Zelong and Hao Menglong was an internal fight within their families, and maybe it was Hao Tianlong's Nascent Soul Dzogchen cultivator who deliberately promoted it.
Xu asked an outsider that in order to repay the favor, it would be enough to save Hao Zelong. There was no need for the emperor not to be anxious and the eunuch to be anxious and carry everything on his shoulders.
Although he didn't like Hao Pinglong, Xu Wen still smiled lightly and said:
"It's easy to say. I must go and visit the two seniors Hao and fellow Taoist Hao Yunlong when I have time!"
His words sounded simple, but he was telling Hao Pinglong.
Although Hao Tianlong and Hao Jinlong were seniors and he couldn't afford to offend them, only the Jindan masters like Hao Yunlong and others in the Hao family were on an equal footing with him.
You're just a foundation-building monk, and that's not enough.
Of course Hao Pinglong understood what Xu Wen meant, and his expression couldn't help but change slightly.
Ever since his father Hao Jinlong was promoted to Nascent Soul, no one has shown him such disrespect for a long time.
After continuously devouring the blood of his relatives, although his magic power became much stronger, his mind was inevitably affected.
It is also about the great road, and there is no way to retreat. He pointed at Hao Zelong and said solemnly:
"Island Master Xu, this person is the key to my promotion. Does the Island Master have to block my path?"
Calling Xu Wen not "senior" but "island owner" tells Xu Wen that you have a base and people you care about.
Although he is not Xu Wen's opponent, the power behind him is many times stronger than Jinghong Island.
Looking at Hao Pinglong, Xu Wen also felt a little confused.
Several unconscionable killings in his early years added many twists and turns to his later cultivation path.
That's just refining Qi and building foundations. Yuanying Zhenren has a long lifespan and a variety of methods, which is far beyond what those people can compare with.
He really didn't want to become enemies with Hao Jinlong and other golden elixirs because of unimportant things.
But it is impossible to sacrifice Hao Zelong. This is the principle and foundation of his actions. Let alone Hao Mirage, even if Hao Jinlong comes in person, he cannot do such shameless things.
After glancing at the cave, Xu Wen suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but chuckle:
"It's just dragon blood, it doesn't really matter. Why is there any need for such trouble!"
A dark red stone appeared in Xu Wen's hand. It was the Fire Dragon Essence Blood Stone.
When Xu Wen got this treasure, he originally planned to use it himself, but due to complicated matters, he kept it until now.
Now it seems that it has a better use.
Glancing at the Fire Dragon Essence Blood Stone, Hao Xianglong's eyes suddenly lit up. This third-level treasure was rare and of great use to him.
But after taking a closer look, he shook his head and said:
"Although the Fire Dragon Essence Blood Stone is precious, the blood content is too small and the age is too old. It is not enough for me to advance to the Golden Elixir!"
