Aiming for the Immortal Path

Those words, every word, were like drums in the evening and bells in the morning, and even more like a sledgehammer hitting the chests of the monks present.

After hearing these words, many monks' emotions were immediately aroused, and they all showed empathetic indignation.

Some monks, when they saw the mountain-protecting formation undulating in the air, were not afraid, but they were alert and even had some ideas.

Seeing that all the monks in the entire inner sect were in turmoil again because of these sudden words.

Xi Longxuan knew that if this continued, the situation would get out of control. The anger in his eyes was about to burst out, and he ignored the sinister aura and injuries in his body. His eyes and consciousness surged out and quickly swept across the whole place. In the blink of an eye, he locked onto a figure in the crowd.

The man looked young and only had cultivation in the early stage of the Golden Core stage. With just one glance, Xi Longxuan recognized that person as Lin Ran, a newly promoted Jindan monk.

Around him, there were more than thirty Golden Core Stage monks.

Most of the more than thirty monks were monks who had returned from the Tianyan Secret Realm. According to what everyone said when they returned that year, although the Tianyan Order inheritance was acquired by the Xingtang lineage, the Xingtang lineage also unexpectedly fell due to the terrifying inheritance power.

Strictly speaking, both Lin Ran and these monks were considered monks of his sect leader's lineage, and they were his confidants. On the way to depriving him of the power of the execution hall and completely controlling the Huanxing Sect, everyone contributed a lot.

Because of this, although he always had doubts about what everyone said, Xi Longxuan did not delve into the matter. After all, he could be said to be the biggest beneficiary of this matter.

But now... Seeing this person in such a state, Xi Longxuan suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Could it be that... these guys were able to come back alive because they had long been colluding with the Zhao Dynasty?

As soon as a thought flashed through his mind, Xi Longxuan's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from his face. All of his confidants actually betrayed him, which made him even more heartbroken than the betrayal of monk surnamed Pei.

As the leader of the Huanxing Sect, he only wanted to take down the execution hall and completely control the Huanxing Sect. Being associated with the Zhao Dynasty has never been within his scope of consideration. After all, he is an equal figure to Zhao Mingyuan.

If there was no Huanxing Sect, what would everything he had fought for so many years mean?

Two gleams of light burst out in his eyes, and Xi Longxuan was furious and said: "Lin Ran? Humph, this sect leader has put so much trust in you in vain and supported you to take charge of the outer sect. Unexpectedly... you dare to betray this sect leader! You are simply... seeking death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the moonlight flying sword in the sky trembled suddenly again, and the bright moonlight fell from the sky. A series of sharp and powerful sword lights pointed directly at Lin Ran in the middle of the crowd.

Facing this astonishing sword move, 'Lin Ran' in the crowd felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, his face extremely solemn.

Clenching his fists, 'Lin Ran' was determined to resist. However, he is currently weak in strength. No matter how he activates the true energy in his body, it is difficult to make any waves.

Even under this terrifying pressure, the consciousness in the sea of ​​consciousness began to fluctuate violently, as if it was about to leave the body.

This... is the sequelae of seizing one's body.

Now, beneath his Lin Ran body, lies the soul of Duanmu Fenlong.

"Damn it, am I going to die in the hands of this person today? If I hadn't taken the body back then, with my original spiritual qualifications, my strength today would never be as strong as Xi Longxuan's. Damn Su Twelve..."

'Lin Ran''s eyes widened and his gaze quickly fell on the people around him.

However, although everyone had secretly defected to the Zhao Dynasty, it could be seen that no one came to help 'Lin Ran' when he was in danger.

What it means is that they keep retreating one by one and quickly distance themselves from them.

What a joke! Even if the sect leader Xi Longxuan is injured, his strength cannot be underestimated. Everyone took refuge in the Zhao Dynasty in order to find a way to survive, not to die!

Especially facing Xi Longxuan who was in a furious state at this moment, no one dared to take action easily and cause trouble for him.

Xi Longxuan's eyes were sharp, and he naturally understood the thoughts of the figures at a glance. But he didn't say much, didn't point it out, and didn't target anyone else.

He knew very well that the Huanxing Sect must not be in chaos at the moment. Even if it had to be liquidated, it would have to wait until the incident was over. Right now, all he has to do is kill 'Lin Ran' with thunderous means, scare others, and stabilize the situation, that's enough!

"Sect Master, be careful!"

But just when Xi Longxuan was urging him with all his strength, and the offensive was approaching 'Lin Ran', Ouyang Yi's warning voice sounded again.

But this time, Xi Longxuan did not notice the crisis.

Despite this, he still raised his vigilance the moment he heard the sound.

However, the next second, his back was suddenly attacked, and there was a sharp stabbing pain in his heart.

He lowered his head and saw a white bone nail as thick as a little finger passing through his heart.

"puff!"

Xi Longxuan's body trembled violently, blood spurted out from his mouth, and the originally powerful aura around him quickly disappeared.

Being wounded in the heart can be said to be a one-step attack.

The moonlight in the sky lost control and suddenly disappeared, with only a small number of attacks falling on 'Lin Ran'. To 'Lin Ran', he could no longer pose a threat and was easily blocked.

On the other hand, Xi Longxuan turned around with difficulty, and his disbelieving eyes fell on the monk surnamed Pei again.

"Why...why?"

It was unbelievable. Although I was very careful, why didn't I notice the other party's move?

"Now that I have embarked on this journey, do I still have a chance to turn back? Or...are you really worthy of trusting me? I think you have never relaxed your guard against me, right?"

"But unfortunately, you still lost in the end! Give up! You are not a good sect leader, and the Huanxing Sect... will no longer exist!" The monk surnamed Pei had a fierce look in his eyes, and his voice rang out, and a cold light appeared in his hands. The fierce murderous intent locked on Xi Longxuan at this time. Before the attack was launched, Xi Longxuan's body trembled again. Under the impact of the qi, his body fell directly to the top of the mountain uncontrollably. The next second, a flash of cold light passed by. Another bone nail flew out of the monk surnamed Pei's hand, pointing directly at Xi Longxuan. Feeling the shadow of death, Xi Longxuan was not only desperate, but also heartbroken. He wanted to have everything, but in the end he found that he had nothing. The friends and subordinates he trusted all betrayed him. This feeling... is indescribable! Just as Xi Longxuan was about to die, Ouyang Yi spoke again, "Hmph! Pei Feihong, if you want to kill someone, you have to get past this elder first."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure soared into the air, while his true essence supported Xi Longxuan, and a cast iron sword stood across the air, blocking the white bone nails of the monk surnamed Pei.

"Hmm? Ouyang Yi? I didn't expect... you would save him? Don't you hate him the most in the Xingtang lineage? If he hadn't been obsessed with power, how could so many fellow Taoists in the Xingtang die tragically in the purge."

"If I'm right, you should... want to kill him more than me, right?"

The monk surnamed Pei stared at Ouyang Yi and spoke quickly. Those words, every word, were like a morning bell, and they hit the chests of the monks present like a sledgehammer.

Hearing this, many monks were immediately aroused, and they all showed their indignation of empathy.

Some of the cultivators, looking at the waving mountain protection formation in the air, were not afraid, but were active in their thinking, and even had some ideas.

Seeing that all the cultivators in the inner sect were in turmoil again because of this sudden remark.

Xi Longxuan knew that if this continued, the situation would definitely get out of control. His eyes were full of anger, and he didn't care about the sinister aura and injuries in his body. His eyes and consciousness rushed out and quickly swept across the whole scene. In the blink of an eye, he locked onto a figure in the crowd.

The man looked young and only had the cultivation base of the early Jindan period. At a glance, Xi Longxuan recognized that the man was the newly promoted Jindan period cultivator, Lin Ran.

Around him, there were more than 30 Jindan period cultivators.

Among the more than 30 cultivators, most of them were cultivators who returned from the Tianyan Secret Realm that year. According to what everyone said when they returned that year, although the inheritance of the Tianyan Order was obtained by the Xingtang lineage, the Xingtang lineage also unexpectedly fell because of the terrifying inheritance power.

Strictly speaking, whether it is Lin Ran or these cultivators, they are all cultivators of his sect master's lineage, and even more so his confidants. On his way to deprive the power of the Punishment Hall and completely control the Huanxing Sect, everyone has made great efforts.

Because of this, although he always had doubts about what everyone said, Xi Longxuan did not delve into the matter. After all, he could be said to be the biggest beneficiary of this matter.

But now... seeing this kind of people in this state, Xi Longxuan suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Could it be that... these guys were able to come back alive because they had long been in collusion with the Great Zhao Dynasty?

A thought flashed through his mind, and Xi Longxuan's face was gloomy as if water could drip out. His confidants actually betrayed him, which made him more heartbroken than the betrayal of the cultivator surnamed Pei.

As the leader of the Huanxing Sect, he only wanted to take down the Punishment Hall and completely control the Huanxing Sect. He had never considered joining forces with the Great Zhao Dynasty. After all, he was a person who was on par with Zhao Mingyuan.

Without the Huanxing Sect, what would all the things he had fought for all these years count for?

With two rays of light flashing in his eyes, Xi Longxuan was furious and said, "Lin Ran? Humph, this Sect Master trusted you so much and supported you to take charge of the outer sect. I didn't expect... you would dare to betray this Sect Master! Simply... you are courting death!"

As soon as the words fell, the moon-colored flying sword in the sky trembled again, and the bright moonlight fell from the sky, and a series of sharp and powerful sword lights pointed directly at Lin Ran in the crowd.

Facing this amazing sword move, 'Lin Ran' in the crowd was like facing a great enemy, and his face was extremely solemn.

Clenching his fists, 'Lin Ran' wanted to resist. But he was not strong enough now, and no matter how he urged the true energy in his body, it was difficult to stir up the slightest wave.

Even under this terrifying pressure, the consciousness in the sea of ​​consciousness began to fluctuate violently, as if it was about to leave the body.

This... is the sequelae of taking over the body.

Now under his body of Lin Ran, what is hidden is the soul of Duanmu Fenlong.

"Damn it, am I going to die in his hands today? If I hadn't taken over someone else's body, with my original spiritual root aptitude, my strength today would never be lower than Xi Longxuan's. Damn Su Twelve..." 'Lin Ran' stared with wide eyes, his gaze quickly fell on the people around him.

However, although they had secretly joined the Great Zhao Dynasty, it was obvious that when 'Lin Ran' was in danger, they had no intention of helping him.

Instead, they kept retreating and quickly distanced themselves from him.

What a joke! Even if the sect leader Xi Longxuan was injured, his strength should not be underestimated. Everyone joined the Great Zhao Dynasty in order to seek a way out, not to die!

Especially facing Xi Longxuan who was in a rage at the moment, no one dared to take action easily and offend him.

Xi Longxuan's eyes were sharp, and he naturally knew the thoughts of those figures at a glance. But he didn't say much, didn't point it out, and didn't target anyone else.

He knew one thing very well, the Huanxing Sect must not be in chaos at this moment, even if they wanted to settle accounts, they had to wait until after the incident. Right now, all we have to do is to kill Lin Ran with lightning speed, shock others, and stabilize the situation. That will be enough!

"Sect Master, be careful!"

But just when Xi Longxuan was urging him with all his strength, and the offensive was approaching 'Lin Ran', Ouyang Yi's warning voice sounded again.

But this time, Xi Longxuan did not notice the crisis.

Despite this, he still raised his vigilance the moment he heard the sound.

However, the next second, his back was suddenly attacked, and there was a sharp stabbing pain in his heart.

He lowered his head and saw a white bone nail as thick as a little finger passing through his heart.

"puff!"

Xi Longxuan's body trembled violently, blood spurted out from his mouth, and the originally powerful aura around him quickly disappeared.

Being wounded in the heart can be said to be a one-step attack.

The moonlight in the sky lost control and suddenly disappeared, with only a few attacks falling on 'Lin Ran'. To 'Lin Ran', he could no longer pose a threat and was easily blocked.

On the other hand, Xi Longxuan turned around with difficulty, and his disbelieving eyes fell on the monk surnamed Pei again.

"Why...why?"

It was unbelievable. I had obviously been very careful, but why didn't I notice the other party's move?

"Now that I have embarked on this journey, do I still have a chance to turn back? Or...are you really worthy of trusting me? I think you have never relaxed your guard against me, right?"

"But it's a pity that you still lost in the end! Give up! You are not a good sect leader, and the Huanxing Sect... will no longer exist!"

The monk surnamed Pei had a fierce look in his eyes, his voice sounded, and another cold light appeared in his hand. The fierce murderous intention was locked on Xi Longxuan at this time. Before the attack could be launched, Xi Longxuan's body trembled again. Under the impact of Qi machine, his body fell directly to the top of the mountain uncontrollably.

The next second, a cold light flashed.

Another white bone nail flew out of the monk surnamed Pei's hand and pointed directly at Xi Longxuan. Feeling the shadow of death, Xi Longxuan was not only desperate but also heartbroken.

I wanted to have everything, but in the end I found that I had nothing. All the friends and subordinates he trusted betrayed him.

This feeling... is indescribable!

Just when Xi Longxuan was about to die, Ouyang Yi spoke again, "Huh! Pei Feihong, if you want to kill someone, you must first pass this elder's test."

As soon as he finished speaking, his body rose into the air, and his true energy supported Xi Longxuan. At the same time, a cast iron sword stood across the sky, blocking the white bone nails of the monk surnamed Pei.

"Huh? Ouyang Yi? Unexpectedly... you would actually save him? Don't you, the Xingtang family, hate him the most? If he hadn't been obsessed with power, how could so many Daoist fellows in the Xingtang die tragically in the purges. "

"If what I expected is correct, you should... want to kill him more than me, right?"

The monk surnamed Pei stared at Ouyang Yi and spoke quickly.
