"Since you know that I have a powerful 'water poison' in my body, you should understand that this water area is my decision..."
Tensions mount.
Tang Zheliu of the Tiangu Sect refused to give in, and the expressions of everyone in the Nirvana Palace also became more solemn.
But facing Tang Zheliu's provocation, Ying Jinhuan was quite calm.
She stared at him.
"I think there must be something wrong with your hearing..."
"Huh?" Tang Zheliu's eyes grew cold.
Ying Jinhuan said again: "I only said that you have a 'water poison' on your body, but I didn't say how powerful it is."
Give a strong response in a calm tone.
After receiving Ying Jinhuan's unwavering indifference, Tang Zheliu suddenly became angry.
"Hmph, you will pay the price for your rude words!"
After saying that, an extremely powerful spiritual energy wave erupted from Tang Zheliu's body.
"Rumble..."
The waters in all directions became more ferocious, and unique and magnificent rays of light glowed from Tang Zheliu's body.
"Jie Jie..." A scream of mysterious species suddenly came out, and a ray of silver light suddenly appeared outside Tang Zheliu's body.
The shape of the silver light is very slender and more flexible.
Everyone couldn't see clearly what it looked like, but they could feel a terrifying burst of power.
"It's the power of the 'Water Gu'..." Lou Qing said in a deep voice. He reminded everyone and motioned for others to step back.
Lan Meng, Chang Qing, Guan Xiang and others also quickly moved back.
The "Water Gu" refined by Tian Gu Sect is a powerful Gu with extraordinary power.
"Water Gu" is quite difficult to refine, and even within the entire Tian Gu Sect, its quantity is limited.
Different from the single function of "Beast Binding Gu", this Tang Zheliu is equivalent to the host of "Water Gu". She can live in peace with the "Water Gu" in her body, and she can also draw on the power of the Gu.
As a price for gaining strength, Tang Zheliu also needs to give his blood essence and spiritual power to the Gu insects to absorb.
Of course, this is something that no Gu magician can avoid.
It's too late to say it, but it will be soon...
Under the explosion of Tang Zheliu's spiritual energy, a spectacular large water column rolled up in the river again.
"Rumble..." This water column is like a tornado that stirs the sky. The tangerine trees are lifted up by the water whirlpool, like the witch spirit in the water that controls the tide.
"Ying Jinhuan, let you see my true power!"
The water vortex intensified, and the huge water column rushed directly to an altitude of seventy or eighty meters.
The expressions of everyone in Nirvana Hall changed again and again.
Even Xiao Nuo's eyes showed a bit of surprise.
This Tang Zheliu is probably only half-step to the ninth level of Qi Control Realm, but with the power of "Water Gu", the aura that explodes is stronger than some people at the ninth level of Qi Control Realm...
Those who have the ability to control "Water Gu" are absolute elites in the Tian Gu Sect.
"rumble!"
In an instant, the spiral water columns converged together like coiled dragons, and Tang Zheliu's five fingers probed through the air towards the location where Ying Jinhuan was.
"Shocking Sea Technique·Swirling Wave Dance!"
In the blink of an eye, under the solemn gazes of everyone in the Nirvana Hall, a huge spike rushed towards Ying Jinhuan.
This spike is completely condensed by the power of water. From a distance, it looks like a huge drill. The power it explodes is quite astonishing.
It can be seen that this Tang Zheliu did not hold back.
Lou Qing, Lan Meng and others looked at Ying Jinhuan nervously.
"Junior sister Ying?"
"Acting Palace Master?"
"..."
At this moment, Ying Jinhuan stretched out his right hand to the side.
"Qiang!"
A snow-white jade sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
This sword is magnificent and flawless, its body is bright and clean, and there is a silver sword mark pattern in the middle of the sword body.
Ying Jinhuan grasped the hilt of the sword with five fingers, and with a force of the sword, it shook open, and suddenly several purple thunders appeared on the sword body.
Lou Qing and others looked at each other sternly.
"Purple Lightning Black Jade Sword!"
The words have not yet finished.
Ying Jinhuan's sword stance was already out, her bright and beautiful eyes flashed with light, and immediately a purple sword energy faced Tang Zheliu's attack head-on.
"Shadow Thunder Slash!"
Two forces shot through the air diagonally, one to the left and the other to the right, bursting out with fierce energy.
"Boom!"
In just the next second, the surface of the purple sword energy suddenly bloomed with spectacular thunder and sword light.
The sword light tore through the huge water spinner in an instant, and Tang Zheliu's offensive was immediately disintegrated.
"What?" Tang Zheliu was shocked.
She never imagined that Ying Jinhuan had such strength.
Before she could react, the purple sword energy penetrated Tang Zheliu's chest directly...
"Bang!"
The blood surged and the sword energy shattered the body.
Tang Zheliu's eyes widened with disbelief on her face.
Also stunned were the group of people from Nirvana Hall.
At this moment, everyone remembered that Ying Jinhuan seemed to have not practiced with them for a long time.
Over the years, her strength has already surpassed other senior brothers and sisters...
"Ying Jinhuan, I remember this sword!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a wave of water rolled up the Tangzheliu above, and then pulled her down.
"Bang!"
There were a lot of waves in the water, and Tang Zheliu was immediately involved in the surging waves.
Chang Qing, Guan Xiang and others were about to pursue her when Ying Jinhuan said, "There's no need to pursue her. She has a 'Water Gu' to help her. You can't find her underwater."
After hearing what he said, several people gave up.
On the broken bridge.
The tide is disordered.
The hearts of the people in the Nirvana Hall were rising and falling just like the surging waves.
Everyone looked at Ying Jinhuan with complicated eyes.
Especially Lan Meng, she has always had a grudge in her heart since the last time they broke up.
I thought that Ying Jinhuan had completely given up on the Nirvana Palace, but I didn't expect that she would appear here.
Finally, Guan Xiang broke the awkward atmosphere.
"Acting Palace Master, I know you can't let us go. I know you can't let Nirvana Palace go..."
With a happy smile on Guan Xiang's face, he said: "It would be great if you were here. Now we can definitely complete the 30,000 contribution points."
As he said that, Guan Xiang raised his hand vigorously and clenched his fist.
But Ying Jinhuan didn't show too many emotions. She said lukewarmly: "I came to the Youcao Demon Nest for other things."
Everyone was startled.
Guan Xiang's smile froze, and he asked awkwardly: "What, what's going on?"
Ying Jinhuan didn't answer. She just calmly said to a few people: "You go back! In your condition, you won't be able to hold on for long."
Several people looked at each other.
Everyone has injuries.
Especially Lou Qing was the most seriously injured.
In this situation, it is difficult to continue to act.
Everyone's hearts continued to sink.
Lan Meng clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "Do you really want to watch the Nirvana Palace disappear? What about the seven dead brothers and sisters? How can they rest in peace? And what should your father do? What should I do? Do you want his bones to be imprisoned in the 'Broken Sword Valley' forever?"
"Lan Meng..." Lou Qing wanted to stop him.
But Lanmeng's mood became more and more agitated, with tears in the corners of her eyes: "Ying Jinhuan, since you have the ability to protect the Nirvana Palace, why do you still ignore it?"
Ying Jinhuan turned around, and the purple electric black jade sword in her hand turned into a beam of light and disappeared in her palm.
She spoke in a low tone and said softly: "Go back!"
Lan Meng had no choice but to look up at the sky and close her eyes deeply to relieve the sadness in her heart.
Lou Qing said, "Junior sister Ying, where are you going?"
"Zhaotian Palace!"
Upon hearing these three words, Lou Qing's expression couldn't help but change.
He wanted to ask more clearly, but Ying Jinhuan had already left.
"Junior Sister Ying..." Lou Qing continued to shout.
But Ying Jinhuan didn't agree and soon left.
Lou Qing's eyes swept over several people around him, but after seeing that everyone was seriously injured, Lou Qing looked at Xiao Nuo who was at the edge of the broken bridge.
"Junior brother, follow Junior Sister Ying and be sure to ensure her safety..."
Xiao Nuo was a little speechless when he was suddenly assigned this task.
He walked up and asked, "Where is Zhaotian Palace? Is it dangerous?"
Just now Xiao Nuo witnessed Ying Jinhuan's strength with his own eyes, and the opponent's cultivation level was higher than his own.
It stands to reason that the other party has the ability to protect themselves, so why send someone to follow?
"Danger, quite dangerous..."
What Lou Qing said also made the hearts of everyone in Nirvana Hall tighten.
He continued: "Zhaotian Palace was the first sect in Youyuan Province, but it was also the place most covered by demons. As far as I know, after three hundred years, Zhaotian Palace is still shrouded in a demonic mist. . It is no exaggeration to say that Zhaotian Palace is known as the restricted area of the 'Secret Cave Demon Nest'. Many sect disciples who come here to practice practice will deliberately avoid Zhaotian Palace..."
Listening to Lou Qing's story, Xiao Nuo was surprised and confused.
"In such a dangerous place, why would the acting palace master go there?"
"I don't know, so I want you to go with her..." Lou Qing said anxiously. At this moment, Ying Jinhuan's figure was almost gone: "Now you are the only one who is not injured. You can only go there. We will go there later." I’m going to take a rest, and I’ll come over to pick you up when my condition gets better.”
"I see!"
Xiao Nuo had no choice. Something was going to happen to the Acting Palace, and the Nirvana Palace was going to collapse.
"Go quickly! Remember to leave marks along the way after entering Zhaotian Palace." Chang Qing also reminded.
Xiao Nuo nodded.
Then, he raised his hand and took out a scroll and handed it to several people.
"By the way, this is for you."
Everyone was puzzled.
"What is this?" Guan Xiang asked casually.
"Ten Beast Pictures..." Chang Qing was stunned and subconsciously blurted out: "This is the Ten Beast Pictures of that woman Liu Shuang."
Lou Qing and Lan Meng also realized one after another that Liu Shuang used these ten beast pictures to "cut off" the phantom poisonous beast.
Xiao Nuo handed the ten beasts map into Lan Meng's hands: "The woman's compensation contains two juvenile general-level ferocious monsters."
"compensation?"
Several people in Nirvana Hall were shocked.
After looking at each other, their eyes were full of surprise.
"Two juvenile general-level ferocious monsters, isn't this a sect contribution of 10,000 points?" Guan Xiang said.
Chang Qing was also excited: "Add in the 5,000 points from the Phantom Poison Beast and the 8,000 points from the Desert Six-clawed Beast, this is already 23,000..."
Suddenly, everyone's eyes ignited with flaming hope.
This is not far from the contribution value of 30,000 points.
The despair in everyone's hearts was swept away.
The sadness in Lan Meng's eyes also weakened a lot.
"Well done..." Lou Qing was also excited at this moment. He patted Xiao Nuo's shoulder, nodded in approval and said, "We are lucky to have a junior brother like you. The entire Nirvana Palace is lucky."
"Hey, of course, I, Guan Xiang, have sharp eyes." Guan Xiang followed suit and claimed credit.
On the first day when Xiao Nuo came to the Nirvana Hall, Guan Xiang tried to trick Xiao Nuo very carefully, and he also strangled Xiao Nuo tightly, for fear that the other party would run away.
Xiao Nuo smiled and said, "I still have something to give you when I get back."
"Huh?" Everyone was puzzled.
Chang Qing smiled and said: "If there are any good things, just keep them for yourself. It's not easy to get opportunities in a place like the Demon Nest of the Deep Cave, so you don't have to think about us."
"Yes, we are already very touched by your efforts in dealing with Liu Shuang and Xu Yuance." Lan Meng said in a complicated tone.
She held the picture of the Ten Beasts tightly with both hands, as if she was holding the dignity of the Nirvana Palace that she had rediscovered.
"It's okay, I know it myself." Xiao Nuo said.
"What is that? Can you reveal it?" Guan Xiang said with a smile.
"Let's keep it secret for a while, then we'll find out when we get out."
Xiao Nuo didn't waste any more time. He said, "Okay, I'm going to chase the acting palace master. I won't even be able to see her figure for a while."
"Be careful." Lan Meng warned with concern.
Xiao Nuo nodded, then turned and left.
On the broken bridge.
Everyone in the Nirvana Hall had mixed feelings in their hearts.
First, Ying Jinhuan came to the rescue, and then Xiao Nuo brought two young general-level ferocious monsters. The continuous morale boost made them feel that everything they did was worthwhile.
"I don't think the acting palace master will give up the Nirvana Palace easily. After all, he is the palace master's daughter." Chang Qing said.
Guan Xiang also nodded: "I also think that if she really didn't want to take care of it, she wouldn't have come to rescue us just now."
…
After leaving the team at Nirvana Hall, Xiao Nuo followed Ying Jinhuan's route and headed towards Zhaotian Palace.
The other thing Xiao Nuo mentioned just now was naturally the "Top-grade Tianyuan Pill".
In Hengshan Dan Sect, Xiao Nuo obtained a total of six Tianyuan Dan.
He planned to keep two for himself and distribute the remaining four to Lou Qing, Chang Qing, Lan Meng and Guan Xiang.
Xiao Nuo is a person who has a clear sense of grudges. During this period, Xiao Nuo has seen how the senior brothers and sisters in Nirvana Hall treated him.
Even on the first day after entering the Nirvana Palace, Lou Qing gave Xiao Nuo a bone marrow fluid of a high-level monster, the Fierce Winged Tiger, as a meeting gift.
Later, Guan Xiang even distributed his own cultivation resources to Xiao Nuo.
Xiao Nuo remembers every trace of kindness in his heart.
However, there was a reason why Xiao Nuo did not directly hand over the Tianyuan Pill to them just now.
The top-quality Tianyuan Pill is a very valuable treasure that can easily attract others to covet it. With Lou Qing's current state, if someone comes to snatch it, it will easily fall into the hands of others.
So Xiao Nuo thought that after this trip was over and he returned to Piaomiao Sect, he would give away the Tianyuan Pill.
…
Two days later.
Ying Jinhuan arrived at Zhaotian Palace.
What was once the largest sect in Youyuan Prefecture has now become unrecognizable.
Ying Jinhuan stood outside the mountain gate of Zhaotian Palace, and what appeared before her eyes was a dark world.
The sky above the sky was shrouded in dark clouds.
The sect inside and outside Zhaotian Palace was also blocked by the demonic mist.
This piece of demonic fog showed a gray-blue sheen, like a miasma.
The vegetation and flowers in Zhaotian Palace have all withered. Those dry trees, without branches and leaves, are like the spread claws of the demon, which makes people shiver down their spines.
There are dead bones everywhere on the ground.
The images of humans and demons are chilling.
Ying Jinhuan's eyes overflowed with a trace of solemnity, and then she moved and walked into the Zhaotian Palace sealed by the demonic mist...
