The eternal silence of the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo and the completely unexplorable situation of the Xianke Palace together form a daunting picture.
Xu Zhuang was still unwilling to give in, and summoned several strong men to break into the Xianke Palace. However, after disappearing into the clouds and mist, they lost their senses one by one.
Xu Zhuang couldn't help but frown. Although he had picked up the skills of a strong man at random, it could not be regarded as inferior. This situation could only mean that the Fairy Palace was definitely not a peaceful place.
"Otherwise, we'd better go to the Purple Qi Court to take a look at the situation first." Hunyuan Boy said: "I'm afraid there may be some forbidden formation inside, so you need to be careful when entering it."
Xu Zhuang actually felt that Hunyuan boy's words were reasonable, but he didn't know why, so he wanted to find a way to refute, but when the words came to his heart, he suddenly froze in place.
"What?" Hunyuan boy said alertly: "Is there anything wrong?"
Xu Zhuang's eyes were deep and deep, and he said slowly: "I originally had the same idea as you, but by some mistake, I chose to come to Xianke Palace."
"At this moment, even though I know that the situation in Xianke Palace is not right, I still have a stubborn attitude of luck."
"You mean, someone is secretly guiding you?" Hunyuan boy's voice changed slightly, and he said resolutely: "Impossible. Is it a boast that I claim to be invulnerable to all laws? Under my protection, no matter how high my magical power is, Don’t even think about affecting your mind without alarming me.”
Xu Zhuang thought deeply: "What if it's not a divine channel technique?"
Hunyuan boy paused for a moment, but Xu Zhuang suddenly turned around, looked at the steps covered in clouds and mist, and said slowly: "It's not difficult to tell whether someone is pretending to be a ghost or not."
Without waiting for Hunyuan Boy's reaction, Xu Zhuang suddenly jumped down, pierced through several cloud barriers, and reached the middle of the mountain in a few breaths, stopping to look down!
As expected, a familiar Taoist priest with a blue robe and a fishtail crown was standing at the foot of the stairs. Xu Zhuang suddenly appeared. It seemed that he had expected it. He said leisurely: "As expected, my little friend still chose to go to Xianke." Come to the palace."
Hunyuan boy was furious and immediately wanted to show his true form and yell at him, but Xu Zhuang stopped him with a thought.
Xu Zhuang narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "I don't know something."
"Oh?" Seeing that Xu Zhuang was calm and composed, the Taoist was a little surprised and said, "My friend, please tell me."
Xu Zhuang asked bluntly: "How did you make me come to Xianke Palace?"
The Taoist chuckled lightly and said: "It's not a divine channel technique, it's just a simple hint." Naturally, this simple hint was also based on his extraordinary Taoism and consciousness, so there is no need to elaborate.
"That's it." Xu Zhuang nodded slowly without changing his expression, but suddenly, there was a clanging sound coming from himself!
"Hong'er!"
One moment he was getting along calmly, and the next moment Xu Zhuang suddenly became violent!
Facing an opponent who was most likely to be the real Yuanshen, Xu Zhuang didn't make any extra attempts. He shouted in his heart, and the Taiyi Rainbow Sword was instantly unsheathed and turned into a sword rainbow and shot out!
"True Flying Sword!"
In the Five Directions and Five Elements Taoist Hall, ordinary divine channel techniques are very limited, but when the true form of the flying sword is released, its extreme killing power and rapid sharpness still make the Taoist's heart tremble in an instant!
"Okay! Good! Good!" The Taoist praised three times in a row, but his tone was colder every time, as if his face was torn apart in an instant, "Fortunately, I didn't dare to underestimate you, otherwise I have this sword in my hand, I am afraid that I will really Nothing can be done."
The Taoist did not see any movement, but suddenly there were several booms, and a stone pillar broke through the ground from behind him. In an instant, it rose to a height of eight or nine feet, supporting a hazy yellow dome, and the Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword slashed above it. , split it into two in an instant, but with the Taoist's magic trick, a flash of yellow light was seen, and the dome returned to its original state. Even if the Taiyi Rainbow Sword slashed down like a violent storm, it was still indestructible!
Seeing this situation, Xu Zhuang frowned and stopped asking Hong'er to do any useless work. He urged in his heart and summoned the Taiyi Hongguang Sword back to his side.
At this point, a smile finally appeared on the Taoist's face, and he said lightly: "How does my 'Wu Shi Zhu' compare to my little friend Hun Yuan Bao Canopy?"
Hunyuan boy showed his true form from behind Xu Zhuang, stared at the Taoist and said, "Do you know me?"
The Taoist said: "The Hun Yuan Bao Canopy is rumored to be the best in defense among the eighty-one kinds of magic weapons and treasures that Yuanji Immortal Lord personally deduced and handed down."
"When I first met my Taoist friend, I already had some suspicions in my mind."
"Hmph!" Boy Hunyuan snorted and shouted: "Since you know my reputation, do you think any magic weapon can compare with me?"
The Taoist laughed and said, "No, no, my unmovable pillar is also a treasure of earth elements. The poor Taoist can stand still here, and it is blessed by the endless earth elements of the Taoist field. However, the ability to guard it may not be inferior to that of fellow Taoists."
Xu Zhuang pressed down the furious Hunyuan boy and asked, "Your Excellency, you have tried so hard just to block my way here?"
"That's right." The Taoist said cheerfully: "I know that you have the Hunyuanbao Canopy to protect you, but my method may not hurt you at all, so I set up this trap."
He Shi Shiran blocked the way and said leisurely: "I guess my little friend won't make such a rash move as to escape."
Xu Zhuang's expression darkened slightly. If he had not fled freely in the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo before, he was afraid of the unknown, but the other party's words invisibly confirmed his intuition.
But now this Taoist was blocking him at the foot of the steps, trapping him here with no way out.
Xu Zhuang took a slight breath, carefully guarding against the influence of the other party's mind, and asked: "You and I have no grievances. Your Excellency must have some agenda when you stop me here?"
"It's natural." The Taoist didn't hide it, raised his hands, and said Shi Shiran: "Xianke Palace is the place where the Five Directions and Five Elements Taoist Temple entertains distinguished guests, and its specifications are still the same as those in the Purple Qi Court."
"I don't know what changes have taken place in the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo, but before that, there must be distinguished guests staying in the Xianke Palace..."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang said: "It seems that your Excellency must have looked down upon you, and because the situation in Xianke Palace is unclear, you want me to drive it for you."
"My little friend is really smart and quick in thinking." The Taoist praised: "I wonder what you think?"
Xu Zhuang said coldly: "Your Majesty, do you think I will drive you?"
"Eh." The Taoist said leisurely: "Although I don't want to do it, and I can't do anything about it, I am blocking you here. I have no way to retreat, but I am afraid that sooner or later you will turn into a withered skeleton."
"To be able to enter the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo, and to be followed by two true magic weapons, I must be a person with all the talents, talents, and blessings. It would be a pity if it turns into empty talk like this."
"It's better to give it a try. As the little friend said, you and I have no grievances and no enmity, and there is no possibility of any friendship in the future. If the little friend can take out the things from the Fairy Palace for Pindao, Pindao will let the little friend go. so what?"
"Your Excellency, isn't it that a disaster is imminent? Are you wasting your free time here with me?" Xu Zhuang said calmly.
"Hahaha, that's why I have to do everything in Xianke Palace." The Taoist laughed three times, pointed at Xu Zhuang, and said: "You know, little friend, I am communicating with you in a special way, but in fact, I am communicating with you in a special way. Where you have been for a hundred years, I have only lived for a year."
"I wonder how long my little friend will live, one thousand years? Two thousand years? It's only twenty years, but a poor man can afford it."
Xu Zhuang smiled silently. He could afford to spend one thousand years or two thousand years, but at most, this would be a last resort choice.
It's not his temperament to waste thousands of years of effort here.
But Xu Zhuang didn't place any hope that the other party would keep his promise. He didn't respond and suddenly turned around and went to Xianke Palace.
Seeing the Taoist's mouth curled up, he raised his voice and said, "My little friend, please remember that if you can find the treasure to overcome the tribulation, one of the three life stone talismans, I can let you go."
"Master!" Hong'er's voice suddenly came out and said angrily: "Please allow me to use my killing sword energy with all my strength. I will definitely be able to break through that man's defense."
"I believe Hong'er can do it." Xu Zhuang nodded slightly, but said in his heart: "But even if he defeats that man's magic weapon, he may not have other means."
"If Hong'er tries her best and we still can't escape in one fell swoop, we will inevitably fall into trouble."
Although the Taoist kept saying that he had no choice but to mix with the Yuanbao Huagai, Xu Zhuang would not believe it easily. If there was a real fight, any changes would be possible. At the cost of a full blow from the Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword, he could defeat the opponent's carefully prepared preparations. The 'first level' defense is indeed not a wise move.
Taiyi Hongguang Sword obeyed Xu Zhuang's words, and Hunyuan boy also knew that Xu Zhuang's words were not unreasonable, so he just asked: "Do you really want to enter the Immortal Guest Palace?"
Xu Zhuang said slowly: "I think that Taoist is sure that the things in Xianke Palace are useful to him. Maybe he actually has some guesses about the past situations in Xianke Palace."
"Oh?" Boy Hunyuan pondered: "Indeed, he seems to be very sure that there is a treasure to overcome the tribulation in Xianke Palace, the Three Life Stone Talisman..."
At this point, Hunyuan boy had a flash of inspiration and said to himself: "Why does the Three Lives Stone Talisman sound so familiar?"
"The Three Lives Stone Talisman is a rare thing in the world. It is a natural talisman with its own magic." Xu Zhuang said lightly: "Although it is not as good as the Reincarnation Talisman in that it can completely break the secrets in the womb, if you use the Three Lives Stone Talisman to reincarnate, you will have it within three lives. Opportunity to reveal the secret of the womb."
Such strange objects are rarely recorded in Taoist books. If Xu Zhuang hadn't learned a lot of miscellaneous knowledge from Zitu during his free time, he might not have been able to know about it.
"If we can find this thing, even if we can't find the reincarnation talisman, I think it will be useful to Master Xu Chen."
"It turns out to be this thing!" Boy Hunyuan suddenly realized, but immediately said: "But even if you find this thing, you still need to solve the immediate trouble..."
"It's not urgent."
Arriving in front of the Immortal Guest Palace again, Xu Zhuang's eyes narrowed slightly. After confirming again and again that the Dharma Eyes could not penetrate the cloud barrier, he simply pinched the technique and used all the defensive skills he had learned. Clothes cover the body, and various visions arise one after another.
"Huh." Boy Hunyuan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Xu Zhuang perform various Taoist arts for the first time. However, without waiting for Xu Zhuang's instructions, he gathered his thoughts and concentrated on maintaining his magical powers, protecting Xu Zhuang as he rushed into the thick fog. !
Xianke Palace seems to be the highest-standard hospitality place in the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo. The exact layout is completely shrouded in mystery.
The Taoist who had cultivated Yuanshen knew that there was something beneficial to him in Xianke Palace, but he only tried his best to make Xu Zhuang use it for him and did not dare to get involved easily.
All these things made Xu Zhuang and Hunyuan boy raise their vigilance to the highest level. However, unexpectedly, nothing changed. There was no sudden activation of the forbidden killing array, and there were no sudden changes.
Although the whole body was covered with mist that blocked the Dharma Eye's spiritual consciousness, Xu Zhuang had no choice but to grope in the vast whiteness, but he was indeed not hindered. Xu Zhuang followed his feelings and moved forward. After an unknown period of time, he felt that the mist was gradually thinning, and he suddenly saw something faint. A palace door comes into view.
"Is this?" Xu Zhuang's eyes lit up, and he sped up a little faster. He soon arrived in front of the palace door and stepped in. In front of his eyes, it was as if a sarong was suddenly opened. Suddenly, it was clear that the mist was gone, and the smoke was gone. Does not exist.
"挲挲......"
Xu Zhuang lowered his eyes and saw that for some reason, there was a cassock under his feet. However, the aura was dim, and it was obviously no longer a treasure.
Xu Zhuang shook his head, stepped on the cassock and crossed the palace door, but his expression changed slightly.
There seemed to be a small side hall in front of me. There was no other difference in the hall, but it was very old. The paint was peeling off, the carvings were corroded, and even the animal heads on the bronze temple seats had lost their shape.
He didn't know how many years had passed before the scene in front of him deteriorated to this point, but all this did not make him lose his composure.
What made Xu Zhuang feel bad was that as soon as he stepped into this place, his unique perception as a third-level Nascent Soul monk began to remind him all the time, and his lifespan began to elapse at an extraordinary speed.
"Boy Hunyuan." Xu Zhuang said solemnly: "Is this also the reason why time passes?"
"What?" Boy Hunyuan didn't seem to react for a moment, and still said: "The time in this Xianke Palace does pass very fast..."
At this point, Hunyuan boy's voice changed and he said: "How could this happen? The time here is simply chaotic."
If we say that in perception, after a hundred years have passed here, only one year has passed in the outside world. This can be regarded as time passing too fast.
However, if a hundred years are spent here, the longevity will flow away for a full thousand years. This time can only be described as chaos.
What's more, the flow speed in the Fairy Palace is even faster than outside...
"No wonder that Taoist dare not enter Xianke Palace. If disaster really strikes him, he may not be able to withstand spending time here."
Xu Zhuang's heart sank slightly, and almost without thinking, he turned around and left the hall, breaking into the mist.
However, after an unknown amount of time, Xu Zhuang emerged from the mist again, stepped into the room, and stepped on the cassock, making a rustling sound.
Since entering Xianke Palace, Xu Zhuang clearly followed his inner feelings and walked straight ahead to get here. However, he turned back the same way, but could not find the exit. After going round and round, he unexpectedly returned to this side hall.
"I'm afraid this is going to be a bit troublesome." Xu Zhuang said to himself: "I thought that even if I entered the Xianke Palace, there would be enough opportunities for me to break through to the soul, but I didn't expect such a change."
Hunyuan boy said cautiously: "Xuzhuang, how long can you hold on here?"
"I can feel that the passage of life is getting faster." Xu Zhuang raised his head and looked at the Five Qi Talisman carved on the dome. He didn't know if he was laughing at himself, but he smiled and said: "It seems that no matter what, within three hundred years, I Everyone must break through the mysterious barrier of life and death, otherwise all kinds of Taoism and all kinds of magical powers will be useless."
"What?" Hunyuan boy was shocked. After three hundred years, just three hundred years, who can be sure that he will become a soul?
What's more, although the person in front of me is extraordinary in appearance, it is precisely because of this that his years of cultivation are only three hundred years!
"Perhaps it would be a better choice to try our best to find a way out." Hunyuan boy calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Although I am not good at collecting breath and searching for traces, after all, I have refined my Yuan consciousness. If I try a few more times, it may be possible. Leave Cyclamen Palace."
"Three hundred years is very short." Xu Zhuang said with a smile: "But rather than taking chances, I would rather fight for myself and try my best!"
