Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 345 Reunion after a long absence

After Qu Qianchen conceded defeat, he might be afraid to stay in the Immortal King Mausoleum and wait for the mausoleum to be opened. If some supreme treasure is discovered, Zuo Lingquan and others don't want to leak the news. For the sake of safety, they went first on the grounds of going to the master's grave. ground.

As for whether Zuo Lingquan and the others would give him something as promised, Qu Qianchen didn't think about it at all—if he wanted to give it to him, he would have to give it to him; , and also give the impression of being aware of current affairs.

After Qu Qianchen left, Zuo Lingquan stood in front of the huge mausoleum, looking at the words "Trespasser dies" on the stone tablet:

"Senior, can this tomb be opened?"

Patriarch Shangguan thought to himself: "How can the old witch come out if you don't open it?" But he didn't say it clearly, he just said:

"The Temple of Sealing Demons is intended to suppress demons. As long as the life of the things inside is exhausted, it should be opened. But you don't have to expect too much. There will be no shortage of natural materials and earthly treasures to build seals inside, and there may also be demon bones. But the Law Treasure Immortal Soldiers will not be kept by the demon's side."

Having said this, Ancestor Shangguan looked at the Qilin Bracer:

"This armor is made of unicorn blood. It has the rank of an immortal soldier, but it can only be effective if it is supplemented with the unique skills of the Temple of Mysteries. Even Yuyaozhou has kindness, you can't just sit back and watch it cut off the incense, you take it and ask a teacher to rebuild the Temple of Heaven's Mystery; if you don't want to shoulder this responsibility, this thing can't be given to you."

Zuo Lingquan has no interest in changing the court, and joked:

"I'm considered the son-in-law of the Iron Cluster Mansion, how can I stand on my own."

When Shangguan Patriarch heard the word 'son-in-law', he was distraught, and wanted to deal with this kid in front of him who didn't treat him like a mother-in-law.

But she really didn't want Zuo Lingquan's fertile water to flow into the fields of outsiders, so she didn't respond to this, and turned to look at Xie Qiutao.

Xie Qiutao was still pondering over the intriguing sword just now, seeing the old ancestor looking over, she shook her head quickly:

"I really want it, but I am the orthodox descendant of Black Tortoise, and my ancestors are much more powerful than Tianji Temple. If I set up my own family, I will be deceiving my master and destroying my ancestors. How about giving this to sister Jiang Yi? She likes to wear it The red clothes match this armor very well."

Zuo Lingquan's eyes moved slightly, and he was very tempted by Taotao's suggestion!

The ancestor Shangguan put the wristband into Jingxun's Linglong Pavilion, and responded flatly:

"You can give it to anyone, but if you fail to shoulder the responsibility, or you have dishonored the reputation of the Temple of Heavenly Secrets, the deity will take back the inheritance on behalf of the deceased and find another disciple. It doesn't matter whether it's Qu Qianchen, Jiang Yi, or yourself, it's the same."

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan naturally didn't say much, and bowed his hands:

"Thank you senior."

The ancestor of Shangguan didn't say any more, he picked up the dumpling and stood on the steps:

"The structure of the Town Demon Palace is complicated. If you want to open it, you have to reverse the Ziwei star array laid here..."

The ancestor of Shangguan pointed to the statues around the square and directed the two to move according to their directions.

There are fourteen statues, corresponding to the fourteen main stars, each of which is more than ten feet high, and the special material is amazing, and it is still a laborious work.

Zuo Lingquan's Taoism at the peak of Youhuang Peak, it is no problem to manipulate the power of heaven and earth to shake small hills, and it is not difficult to move more than a dozen stone statues.

Xie Qiutao's main attack force, needless to say, pushed the giant statue to slide on the ground, walking like flying with ease, and the speed was a little faster than Zuo Lingquan's entry.

The method of breaking the formation is very complicated. The reason why Shangguan Patriarch knew it was because he used almost all the sealing methods in the world to seal and steal pills. She is one of the main forces and must be mastered first.

In order to prevent newcomers from breaking the seal without authorization, these ancient methods were all hidden after the war. Except for the three elders, the other lords of the nine sects had no chance to contact them, and lord Peach Blossom naturally wouldn't.

Zuo Lingquan pushed the stone and moved it according to the ancestor's instructions for a long time, then came to the outside of the tomb door to observe the situation of the tomb door.

Xie Qiutao worked hard to turn the statue of the divine beast Bai Ze. When it turned to a certain angle, the huge door of the tomb, which was tens of feet high, swayed, and then lifted up, revealing a gap more than ten feet high.

Rumble——

"Qiutao, open it, hurry up..."

Zuo Lingquan's eyes lit up, and when the tomb door was raised, he lowered his head to look inside, but before he could finish speaking, his whole body was shaken.

(⊙_⊙)! !

The interior of the tomb door is green in color. A white stone covered bridge is located behind the tomb door, and further away is the Jiuyou underworld-like main hall.

On the bridge just two feet away from Zuo Lingquan, there were books and a jade futon with an unopened red wine gourd next to it.

There was no one on the futon because the person was directly opposite Zuo Lingquan.

The figure was a charming woman in a dark green dress, holding a book in her hand and a gold pen in her mouth, looking at him blankly!

Looking at each other, Zuo Lingquan's expression changed instantly, it was impossible not to be frightened - he opened an underground tomb that looked like it hadn't been opened for thousands of years. There may be someone alive.

Suddenly he saw a figure standing in front of him. Zuo Lingquan was not frightened to death because of his mental toughness. He almost raised his hand and walked out with a sword.

Not only Zuo Lingquan, but also Xie Qiutao, who was looking at him from a distance, was so frightened that he instinctively picked up the iron pipa.

Fortunately, the face of the woman behind the tomb door was too familiar. Zuo Lingquan took two steps back in shock before he recognized who this plump woman was.

"you……"

Zuo Lingquan's heart beat like a drum. Looking at Lord Peach Blossom who was very close at hand, his first reaction was - could he be under an illusion? How could Lord Peach Blossom be here?

Lord Peach Blossom stood in the door of the tomb in a daze, more shocked than Zuo Lingquan in his heart, his red lips parted slightly, and the gold pen in his mouth fell off and landed on his swollen chest, leaving a golden ink stain, all the thoughts in his mind yes:

It’s over, it’s over…

Shangguan Yutang, you stinky bitch, are you serious? !

There was deathly silence inside and outside the tomb door.

The ancestor of Shangguan stood on the steps, like a charming little lady, hugging the dumpling with her head on to watch the excitement, gently stroking the white fluff, her expression did not change, but there was a bit of "toasting and not eating fine wine" in his eyes mean.

"Sister Yingying?"

After Zuo Lingquan was surprised for a moment, he confirmed through Shangguan Patriarch Feng Qingyun's reaction that what he saw in front of him was not an illusion:

"How did you..."

"Uh...I..."

Lord Peach Blossom looked confused and was caught off guard. He had not yet thought of how to explain his situation.

Zuo Lingquan is not stupid. When he saw the formation map on the ground behind him and looked at the book in Lord Peach Blossom's hand, he guessed the whole story and suddenly realized:

"Are you locked in there and unable to get out, so you asked me to come over..."

? ?

Pooh--

Even if Lord Peach Blossom is so, it is impossible for him to admit it!

She came back to her senses, quickly waved her sleeves, put away the information around her, and acted like a calm and indifferent master:

"What nonsense are you talking about? I just... discovered this underground palace, so I asked Shangguan Yutang to bring you here to get the opportunity, um..."

Everyone has gained the stolen goods, no matter how you explain it, it is a bit weak.

Zuo Lingquan understood it clearly and saw through it without saying anything. He walked up and looked around the interior of the underground palace:

"I see, I understand."

Lord Peach Blossom glared: "What do you understand?"

Zuo Lingquan said with a smile: "Well...Sister Yingying's Taoism is really profound. We are still thinking of ways to break the formation, and you have already come in...You are trying to find a way to break the seal inside, right?"

"..."

Lord Peach Blossom blinked his enchanting eyes and nodded seriously:

"You still have some eyesight. Yes, I am here waiting for you to come over. I have nothing to do and study the seal inside..."

Lord Peach Blossom explained seriously, but the three people and one bird in the underground palace probably didn't even believe Tuanzi.

Xie Qiutao knew that Sister Yingying was secretly acting as a protector during this trip. Seeing the unnatural look on her face, he guessed that she had definitely locked herself up for fun. She wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

Shangguan Patriarch’s eyes looked a bit strange.

Ancestor Shangguan saw Zuo Lingquan approaching Lord Peach Blossom, his eyes moved slightly, and he aimed at the colorful rope on Zuo Lingquan's wrist!

Last time, the Shangguan ancestor was tricked by the peach blossom old witch. She was the grand ancestor and the mother-in-law, and was held in the arms of the younger generation and kissed forcefully. Afterwards, she was scolded and laughed at by Tang Jingxuan for a long time. She suffered such a big secret loss. Just like this, the elder It would be too easy for the witch to be embarrassed.

As you said, "If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust." Naturally, you must keep your word.

Shangguan Ancestor lightly hooked his fingers, trying to control Zuo Lingquan with the colorful rope he kneaded last time, hug Lord Peach Blossom, and give him a kiss that would make the gods and ghosts cry!

Lord Peach Blossom would definitely not be able to react in his current confused state.

However, the Shangguan Patriarch looked at Xie Qiutao not far away and hesitated again - the last time she was held and forced to kiss, Xie Qiutao was not in front of her, and Tang Jingxun's body was used, which was a bit embarrassing, but after all, it was between two people. Personal grudge.

Let the old peach blossom witch be forcibly kissed by Zuo Lingquan in front of Xie Qiutao, which means it is serious in public.

What if the peach-blossom old witch loses her temper and gives up on herself, and really touches Zuo Lingquan's heart? If she refuses to retaliate, she will give Lingye a sister. Wouldn't she look like a smart person?

Or just hold and rub your breasts?

Ancestor Shangguan glanced at Lord Peach Blossom's heavy chest from the corner of his eye and felt that this move was moderately strong and well-controlled, which was very suitable.

There was no mouth-to-mouth kiss. The peach-blossom old witch must have been just like her, secretly gritting her teeth and enduring it, treating it as if she was being touched by a child, and not daring to become passionate about a junior.

However, this move can only be carried out when the two of them are alone in private. Tang Jingxun and Xie Qiutao cannot find out, lest the old peach blossom witch loses her innocence in front of the younger generation and becomes angry and abandons herself directly...

Thinking of this, Old Ancestor Shangguan snorted secretly. Instead of alarming the snake, he put away his hand and his eyes flashed with golden light...

——

Zuo Lingquan and Lord Peach Blossom naturally knew nothing about the amazing plan in Shangguan Patriarch’s mind.

Lord Peach Blossom explained carefully for a long time and explained why she was here. Regardless of whether Zuo Lingquan believed it or not, he turned around and walked towards the main hall at the other end of the stone bridge:

"This underground palace was discovered by me after all the hard work. I have no use for the things in it, so they are all given to you and Qiutao. The water in this galaxy is 'Shen Lingtungsten', which can be used to create isolation formations and armors." The necessities in front of you are enough for a wealthy weapon refining family like Heavenly Emperor City for a whole year; and these stone statues are all made by experts to suppress demons. If you put any of them in a house or palace, you can protect your descendants. I will not be disturbed by hundreds of ghosts for eternity..."

Zuo Lingquan followed behind and looked around. He couldn't quite understand the details, but he could understand two words - valuable.

When Xie Qiutao saw Lord Peach Blossom finished explaining, he also ran in happily. Looking around with bright eyes, he seemed to want to tear down the bridge and move it away, but he didn't know where to start.

Tang Jingxuan regained control of his body and was thinking about the inexplicable emotional changes of the dead woman just now. Before he could figure out the reason, there was no one in the underground square, which was a bit eerie and scary.

Tang Jingxuan came back to her senses and was a little scared. She threw away the dumplings and ran into the underground palace with her skirt:

"Wait for me……"

"grumble?"

The dumpling fell to the ground and was stunned for a long time, but he didn't dare to complain and ran in with his little paws.

Lord Peach Blossom walked in front, talking about the immortal materials that could be found everywhere in the underground palace. As Zuo Lingquan listened, the joy in his heart turned into caution, and he looked at the majestic hall on the other side of the stone bridge:

"Just to suppress it, so many natural materials and treasures have been used. What is locked here?"

Lord Peach Blossom was not sure either. She walked to the palace gate with the word "Feng" on it and looked around:

"It must be a certain ancient Immortal Lord. Most of the formation has failed, and there is no life inside. The people inside have already exhausted their lifespan, so don't worry."

"oh……"

Zuo Lingquan and the two girls stood behind Lord Peach Blossom with respectful expressions, waiting to go in and visit.

but……

Lord Peach Blossom looked left and right, then looked up at the plaque, but he had no intention of opening the door...

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Tuanzi looked up and spread his little wings:

"grumble?"

Tang Jingxun waited for a long time and saw no movement, so he couldn't help but ask:

"Sister Yingying, can't you open this door?"

Lord Peach Blossom looked speechless - if she could open it, why would she be sitting in the middle of the bridge?

But she definitely couldn’t say that. She responded seriously:

"The sealing formation in the underground palace is very delicate. It will self-destruct if you are not careful. It will take some time to explore, so don't worry."

Xie Qiutao knew this was the case, and said with a smile: "Senior Shangguan just taught us how to reverse the Ziwei star formation. The formations inside and outside are similar, but the star positions are different. How about I give it a try?"

Lord Peach Blossom folded his hands on his waist and took a gentle breath:

"Since you are here to practice, I naturally have to give you young people a chance to do it. Come on."

"..."

Zuo Lingquan wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't mean to look down on Lord Peach Blossom - Lord Peach Blossom would not be able to crack this formation simply because the Three Elders had sealed many ancient secret techniques and were not allowed to be learned by later generations, not Lord Peach Blossom. The master's art is not good.

However, Lord Peach Blossom's awkward and calm appearance is indeed quite interesting.

After Xie Qiutao received permission, he began to mess around with his hands and feet, moving the stone carvings on both sides of the stone bridge and changing the formation patterns on the palace columns.

Zuo Lingquan just listened to the ancestor's narration and understood a little, so he helped him.

Lord Peach Blossom is able to sit in her current position because she is definitely not stupid, but she has no one to teach her.

After watching for a moment, I understood the essence of the seal here, and my heart suddenly became enlightened. When the two of them were hesitating, they would even say a few words of reminder.

Soon, the door of the majestic palace slowly opened with the sound of "creak-".

Tuanzi hid behind Lord Peach Blossom's skirt and looked around. A dark wind blew in front of him, scaring him so much that he quickly shrank back.

Zuo Lingquan pressed the hilt of his sword and made sure there was nothing unusual in the palace before looking inside.

There are no bones of monsters or beasts in the palace. It looks like a gorgeous and elegant palace with side halls on both sides. Inside the main hall are rows of libraries with volumes neatly arranged. The library probably contains no less than tens of thousands of volumes, but they are all It is a leisure book to pass the time. In the middle of the main hall is a long desk.

There was a thousand-year-old glazed lamp placed on the long desk, which emitted a warm yellow firelight and illuminated the books spread out on the table.

A figure turned into crystal white bones, lying on the long desk. The white bone's right hand stretched out a finger, and there were some scratches on the table at the fingertips.

The internal structure of the palace is special. Although there are signs of damage, it is generally complete, and the books are as good as new. If he hadn't known that this underground palace had been sleeping underground for thousands of years, Zuo Lingquan would not have doubted it if he said that the bones had just died a few years ago. .

Lord Peach Blossom's eyes were slightly cautious. He walked to the bookcase and observed it carefully for a moment before beckoning the three of them to come over.

Zuo Lingquan stood near the glazed lamp without touching the bones, and carefully examined the scratches on the table.

The inscriptions are all filled with handwriting, and the small seal on the head is filled with long cases.

Zuo Lingquan read it briefly and wrote about the life of this white skeleton. He was originally the master of the Tianji Palace, named Chu Xun, and was considered one of the leaders of the righteous path.

At that time, the Heavenly Demon frequently came to the world to bring troubles to the world, and each time it was a catastrophe. In desperation, the Taoist family contacted the immortal heroes from other continents to seal the Taiyin God, destroying the balance of yin and yang in the world, and locking the Nine continent world.

This Law Manifestation is equivalent to lowering the "sky" of the Jiuzhou land by a large amount, making it impossible for the Heavenly Demon to live in the world. The side effect is that the height of the "sky" limits the upper limit of the life of Jiuzhou, and they cannot grow again. To the 'Jiu Gai Realm'.

This kind of survival method of seclusion and self-destruction of martial arts is everyone knows that it is not advisable.

But at that time, the human race had no choice. One after another catastrophes swept across the Nine Continents. Even the monks who reached the Jiu Gai Realm only had a 50-50 chance of winning against the Heavenly Demon. If they wanted to climb up, this world would If you can’t fit it in, Ascension will be out of reach.

Chu Xun, who was lying in front of the desk and dying of old age, did not refute this approach in his words. Instead, he admired those people - because those mountain heroes who chose this method could completely pursue eternal life in the Ascension world, and there was no need to bother with the land of Jiuzhou. The catastrophe of life; by cutting off the path to immortality, they gave up everything and were trapped in this world. All they wanted was to give peace to the life in Jiuzhou that had nothing to do with them.

But Chu Xun still disapproved of this approach. He was imprisoned until death because he blocked the sealing of Taiyin in the Taoist ancestral court.

Chu Xun's point of view is very clear - it is impossible for people to change the laws of heaven while within the heaven and earth; sealing the taiyin can exclude the Heavenly Demon from the family, but the consequence of the imbalance of yin and yang is that the entire Jiuzhou land becomes a dead place. From the moment the Taiyin God forcibly interfered with the way of heaven, the land of Jiuzhou was already dying slowly.

When Zuo Lingquan saw this, he felt that Chu Xun's views were similar to those of the Youying alien tribe, but his understanding was deeper.

But what Chu Xun said next made Zuo Lingquan a little surprised.

After Chu Xun was imprisoned, he did not understand the outside world, but he predicted the future changes of Jiuzhou - the imbalance of yin and yang, the prosperity of yang and the decline of yin, causing the north to begin to decline; while the south had excessive yang energy and the heaven and earth were out of balance.

When the heaven and earth are unstable to a certain extent, they will start to interfere on their own and try to recover. The human race is destined to be unable to suppress it; even if it suppresses the heaven and earth, the imbalance of yin and yang may cause the gods of the four directions to go awry.

For example, the south belongs to the fire of the five elements, where the Yang Qi of heaven and earth is the strongest. Without the suppression of Taiyin, it is very likely to gradually break away from the shackles of heaven and earth, turn into a demon and cause harm to the world!

Zuo Lingquan was shocked when he saw this - Chu Xun was imprisoned until death and had no understanding of the outside world, but what he predicted did happen in the following thousands of years; one of the Nine Phoenixes, Stealing Pill, broke free The restraint of heaven and earth almost destroyed the entire Jade Yaozhou.

If it is said to be 'gradually breaking free', then...

Zuo Lingquan looked at Jing Xun next to him, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Lord Peach Blossom read what was written on the desk and had a new understanding of why Master Mei Jinshui defected after the Battle of Stealing Pills.

However, Lord Peach Blossom did not doubt whether the path he had followed was correct. Seeing that Zuo Lingquan and Xie Qiutao were both thoughtful, he said:

"Shangguan Yutang must know all these things, but he just didn't tell us. This Chu Xun Immortal Venerable may be a Saint who cares about Jiuzhou, but most of the Youying aliens are not; most of the Youying aliens opened the path to immortality just to seek help. Personal immortality does not care about the life and death of the creatures in Jiuzhou."

Xie Qiutao whispered: "It is said above that human interference in the world will cause trouble, and stealing the pill has fulfilled the saying..."

After Lord Peach Blossom was silent for a moment, he gave a rather cruel answer:

"Stealing pills can only destroy Jade Yao Continent, and the human race can defeat it; the Heavenly Demon plunders everything on the land of Jiuzhou, destroying the world every time, and the human race may not be able to defeat it. It is the lesser of two evils, The Immortal Lord of Righteous Path Six sticks to the path of his ancestors, maybe he just wants the peaceful days of the people in Nine Continents to last longer."

"No matter how long we delay, trouble will still come..."

"If you know that 'those who resist destiny will die', they can't wait to open the path to immortality and continue fighting with the Heavenly Demon. What will happen to the lower-class creatures who could have lived in peace for a few more lifetimes? Even if the sky really collapses, it will be Shangguan Yutang and the others who carry it. Yes, she cares more about this than we do."

Xie Qiutao thought about it and didn't ask any more questions.

Tang Jingxun listened for a long time and didn't quite understand. After thinking for a while, he interrupted:

"Vermilion Bird is the boss of Phoenix and the master of fire in the Five Elements. If Vermilion Bird rebels, what will we do?"

"grumble?"

Tuanzi was startled and poked Tang Jingxun with his wings, which probably meant: "Mom, I'm afraid I can't do this."

Lord Peach Blossom shrugged: "The purpose of stealing pills and rebelling is to usurp the throne and control the entire world; Vermilion Bird is already one of the pillars of heaven and earth, it can be said to be the world itself. Have you ever seen the emperor rebel against himself? It's old man If you really get angry, you are trying to restore the balance between heaven and earth."

"It can wipe out the Azure Dragon White Tiger and so on. It can dominate the whole family and dominate the world."

"grumble?!"

Tuanzi's eyes were full of shock and he wanted to cover Jingxun's mouth.

Lord Peach Blossom was a little helpless: "The five elements are mutually reinforcing each other. If you destroy the other four, wouldn't you be gone too? The demons also have something to ask for. Don't say these meaningless words."

"oh……"

Only then did Jingxun give up.

Zuo Lingquan also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He grew up peacefully in Jiuzong where he had plenty of food and clothing. No matter what theories and heresies he heard, he could not doubt the correctness of what Shangguan Patriarch did. He shook his head and said:

"It's just the last words of an ancient monk. How we deal with the aftermath depends on us. Let's see if there is anything good left behind."

Lord Peach Blossom cleared some thoughts from his mind, looked carefully in front of the desk, and finally took out a crystal-clear bead from the glass lamp - the bead was snow-white, translucent, and no material could be seen.

Xie Qiutao came closer to look at it and said curiously:

"What is this?"

Lord Peach Blossom didn't see the details. He held it in his hand and used his spiritual consciousness to explore the inside of the bead. As a result, his face was startled, and then showed a look of surprise:

"Such a powerful soul power... This should be the result of Chu Immortal Venerable committing suicide before his life span was exhausted. He forcibly separated the soul, sealed the power of the soul in a soul bead with a secret method, and left it to future generations. He was imprisoned until his death. , unable to carry magical weapons, this is all that can be left to future generations."

Zuo Lingquan has reached the peak of Youhuang and has a rough understanding of the soul.

The Jade Level is divided into three realms: Youjing, Shuangling and Feiguang, which are responsible for the three souls of man, earth and heaven.

If a monk wants to improve his realm, he can use the Nurturing Spirit technique to warm his soul. Only when the human soul reaches perfection can he reach the next realm.

Nurturing Spirit and Body Refining are completely different. You cannot rely on treasures from heaven and earth, and the progress is very slow. The only shortcut is to plunder the soul power of other creatures to nourish yourself - this is why many demons absorb Yang Qi. , hurt the soul.

Stealing other people's souls is an absolutely evil method. Because the demand is so great that it takes tens of thousands of lives to make a sound, generally no one dares to do this.

If a monk wants to quickly improve his realm, the normal way is to kill demons with higher moral standards and obtain the remaining power of the soul through legitimate means.

But even so, there are still some people with weak minds who have their minds disturbed by the remnants of their souls, causing their character to become possessed by demons.

A peak Immortal Lord committed suicide, forcibly leaving behind some of his soul power, and refined it for his own use. Although he could not make people fly to the sky, as long as it could make the Jade-level monks advance to a higher level, that would be what the Immortal Venerable on the mountain could only dream of. The ultimate treasure, for monks with ordinary qualifications, saves hundreds of years.

However, the soul is too mysterious, and this thing may not be safe. Zuo Lingquan glanced at the soul bead:

"Isn't this thing used to seize the body?"

Lord Peach Blossom shook his head: "The origin of human beings lies in the life soul, and it is also the life soul that determines the life span. This Chu Immortal Venerable has expired and has already entered reincarnation. The power of the soul left behind should not be dangerous, but still I have to check it out and give it to you later..."
