Immortal Palace Longevity

"Buzz"

The exit passage was shaking, and a light red light curtain fell from top to bottom, blocking the entrance of the cave.

"not good!"

Zhou Ziwen's expression changed, and a look of astonishment flashed across his face, but he did not stop and still ran towards the exit quickly.

"I didn't expect that after three thousand years of corrosion, this formation can still be used!"

His face became a little ugly.

More than three thousand years have passed. No matter how powerful and sophisticated the formation is, loopholes and errors will appear under the corrosion of time.

Zhou Ziwen originally thought that since the Heavenly Fire Patriarch, no one had maintained it, and even though the two sets of fourth-order formations had no problems on the surface, they were full of loopholes internally.

But he never expected that this formation mechanism could still be used? !

"There was obviously no response when I came in?!"

Zhou Ziwen was shocked and angry, his face changed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

As the exit got closer, he made a decision with a fierce look on his face.

While resisting the attacks of the four people behind him, he took out a black scepter spiritual weapon. The blood-red crystal stone inlaid on the head of the sword shone slightly, and he raised his hand and shot three powerful dark red blood arrows, pointing directly at the enemy who blocked the entrance of the cave. Light red light curtain.

"Another top-quality spiritual weapon!"

"The power of each of the three blood arrows is not weaker than the second-level best spell, and it is an extremely rare blood spell."

"Although there is a reason for using a spiritual weapon, it can be released with the raising of one's hand. It is obvious that the blood magic is very profound!"

"This person's identity is definitely more than just a traitor to the Holy Fire Cult."

"This kind of strength can already reach the level of the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes"."

Looking at Zhou Ziwen controlling two top-quality spiritual weapons, Liu Yu had many thoughts, and then secretly sounded the alarm in his heart, warning himself not to underestimate the world's heroes.

Although his cultivation strength has improved by leaps and bounds, the opponents he faces are not the same group as before.

Tang Tianbao, Zhou Ziwen, the eyebrowless male cultivator of Tianmo Sect, the scarred female cultivator of Tianyi Sect...

The opponents encountered during the trip to the secret realm are all capable of reaching the top level of foundation building. If one becomes arrogant and arrogant after achieving even a little bit of achievement, it is very likely that the ship will overturn.

After the inner lake calmed down, Liu Yu exerted her physical strength in the middle stage of foundation building and slashed out several black sword shadows with her sword without revealing any flaws in her words and deeds.

Right now, the enemy is showing the light and we are hiding. If we make good use of it, we may get miraculous effects at the critical moment.

When the body cultivation method reaches the foundation-building realm, it is not that there are no long-range attack methods at all, but the power is a bit unsatisfactory.

It's okay to bully the monks in the Qi Refining Stage, but it's not enough to deal with the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Zi Zi"

Facing the several black sword shadows that came towards him, Zhou Ziwen just glanced at them casually and waved his hand with a flash of dark red blood, eroding the sword shadows far away.

For such a result, Liu Yu had already expected it in his heart. He was not angry when he saw it, and still attacked with his sword shadow from a distance.

The opponent is at the peak level of foundation building, and he also possesses two top-quality spiritual weapons and is proficient in bloody and weird blood spells.

Against such a powerful monk, we can't let him rush over to die with a mid-stage foundation-building body, right? !

So Liu Yu paddled calmly and just used the Dark Moon Sword to cut out the sword shadow and attack from a distance.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

Three dark red blood arrows successively bombarded the light red light curtain blocking the entrance of the cave. The powerful power caused the light curtain to vibrate and roar.

"Zi Zi"

Then the blood arrow turned into a blood-red liquid, constantly eroding the light red light curtain, making a sound like frying, and wisps of green smoke rose from the hole.

"Um?"

Zhou Ziwen was slightly startled when one blow had such an obvious effect.

Immediately, I realized that although this formation mechanism could still be opened, it had little power left over the years, and it was possible to break through it by force.

Seeing this, his movements did not stop at all.

On the black scepter, the blood-red crystal flashed brightly, and he raised his hand and shot three larger and thicker blood arrows, vowing to remove the obstacles in front of him and escape to heaven.

"No, the formation is unstable, stop him quickly."

"We must not let this traitor succeed and leave with the Holy Fire Sword. We must clean up the door now."

"Everyone, follow me and attack with all your strength!"

Seeing that the light red light curtain was unstable, the female cult member Zi Shi frowned and immediately drove a high-grade spiritual weapon and two top-grade magical weapons towards Zhou Ziwen.

Liu Yu was not surprised that he could possess a high-grade spiritual weapon.

No matter how desolate the Holy Fire Sect is, it was once a powerful sect with extraordinary foundations. Before Shi Renjie's death, its overall strength was even greater than that of ordinary Jindan forces.

Zishan is not only a core member of the cult, but he is also in the late stage of foundation building. To a certain extent, he is already "uncommon". It is not surprising to have a high-grade spiritual weapon.

"ding ding" "bang bang"

On the sea of ​​fire, the five people fought fiercely.

For the Holy Fire Cult, the Holy Fire Sword itself has extraordinary significance, and it is also a powerful magic weapon that is impossible to give up.

Therefore, the three people in purple shirt took action without any reservation, and the decision to take back the sword was very firm.

After chasing and escaping, several people were approaching the exit in the blink of an eye.

With no way to go, Zhou Ziwen could only stop and deal with the attacks of Liu Yu and Zishan head-on, waiting for an opportunity to shoot a blood spell at the light red light curtain.

The three people in Zishan are all in the late stage of foundation building, and they all possess high-grade spiritual weapons. "Hong Hao" is also very powerful.

Faced with the siege of four people, Zhou Ziwen was gradually at a disadvantage, and he was gradually unable to use his hands to attack the light red light curtain.

"Blood Dao magic, peak foundation building, powerful."

"He was ruthless."

"Fellow Daoist Hong, do you feel that the methods exposed by this traitor seem familiar, as if you have seen them not long ago?"

The purple-shirted girl said in a voice transmission.

Looking at Zhou Ziwen, who was casting blood Dao magic, with blood lingering around him and emitting a fishy and disgusting smell, she looked extremely solemn, as if she had thought of something.

"What does Fairy Zishan mean by this?"

After receiving the voice transmission, Liu Yu waved the Dark Moon Sword in his hand and attacked continuously, and said in a puzzled voice transmission.

Hearing this, he carefully looked at Zhou Ziwen again, and also had a sense of déjà vu.

Suddenly, his eyes fixed, and he suddenly thought of something, and asked tentatively:

"What do you mean, fairy?"

Looking at the bloody spells that Zhou Ziwen cast with the help of the black scepter, Zishan nodded solemnly:

"Fellow Daoist Hong is right, it is the "Twisted Shadow"!"

Then, she muttered to herself in a daze:

"But Zhou Ziwen was adopted by the Holy Church since he was a child, and was taught carefully by Elder Shi himself, why did he become like this?"

"Why did he become a traitor? Why did he kill people? Why is it a twisted shadow?"

However, with the death of Elder Shi Renjie, Zishan's questions are now destined to be unanswered.

And the facts are in front of her, Uncle Yang died and the Holy Sword was taken away, she will never let this traitor go no matter what!

"Twisted Shadow?"

Hearing this, Liu Yu was also very serious in her heart.

The evil cultivators in Xisha are rampant, and the Shenshamen have established a bounty office with the big and small immortal cultivation forces, intending to combat the arrogance of the evil cultivators.

All the cultivators who can be rewarded by the bounty office are lawless people who have been found out with conclusive evidence.

They have committed all kinds of evil deeds, such as killing people for treasures, raping and looting, and blood sacrifices on mortals.

Among them, the evil cultivator with the highest bounty in the foundation-building realm is the Twisted Shadow, who is even worse than the normal evil cultivators.

It is said that this person is extremely cruel and does all kinds of evil. Once he takes action, he will not leave any chickens or dogs alive.

Regardless of whether they are cultivators or mortals, regardless of men, women, old or young, they will all be slaughtered without any reason, leaving no one alive.

What makes other evil cultivators disgusted is that the Twisted Shadow also destroyed the "oasis" that can be called the source of life, so that Xisha will lose these places suitable for reproduction forever. It is simply unscrupulous and inhumane.

Not only do normal cultivators hate him to the bone, but even evil cultivators want to get rid of him as soon as possible.

According to the oral accounts of the survivors, the Twisted Shadow is very proficient in the way of blood. When he massacred mortals on a large scale, he used the blood way of magic to drain the blood of living people and turn them into mummies directly.

Millions of innocent souls have been killed by his blood magic!

Liu Yu didn't feel anything about the Twisted Shadow slaughtering mortals as long as it had nothing to do with him.

However, the destruction of the "Oasis" caused all the cultivators and mortals to lose their homes forever. This kind of behavior that hurts the heaven and earth, even he who claims to be decisive in killing, feels very disgusted!

"Such a profound blood magic, even if it is not the Twisted Shadow, is definitely closely related to it."

Liu Yu agreed with Zishan's opinion. According to the various signs of Zhou Ziwen's attack, he has already made a judgment in his heart.

...

"Bang Bang"

In the third layer of the sea of ​​fire in the secret realm, the roar of magic and magic tools continued.

After seven or eight breaths of formal fighting, under the siege of Liu Yu, Zishan and the other four, although Zhou Ziwen's magic was profound and his magic tools were sharp, he still fell into a disadvantage.

Although his life was temporarily safe, he could not spare his hands to attack the light red light curtain, and he had become a turtle in a jar.

At this time, Tang Tianbao had arrived.

"Why?!"

"Why did you take the Holy Sword? Why did you attack me? Why did you kill Uncle Yang!!"

Tang Tianbao questioned with veins popping out on his square face, his tone extremely gloomy.

Under the blessing of magic, his penetrating and loud roar was clearly transmitted to Zhou Ziwen's ears.

Perhaps he was sure of victory, or perhaps he wanted to ask for clarification, anyway, this person did not choose to attack at the first time.

At this time, there was still a trace of disbelief on Tang Tianbao's face.

He couldn't believe that this fellow who grew up with him in the sect would do such a rebellious thing.

The grace of adoption, the grace of education, the fate of immortals...

All kinds of great graces and virtues, even if they are repaid with their lives, it is not too much, why choose to betray?

Tang Tianbao didn't care whether Zhou Ziwen was a twisted shadow or not, and he didn't care how many evil things he did, but he couldn't let go of the fact that he betrayed the sect!

"Betrayal?"

Zhou Ziwen spoke calmly, and there seemed to be a ripple on his serious face.

"Why take the Holy Sword? I'm here to take what I deserve."

"Why did you attack? It's just because you and that old guy blocked my way?"

"As for betrayal? Attacking you is equivalent to betraying the Holy Church?"

"Hahaha~!"

At this point, he suddenly laughed wildly, mocking Tang Tianbao.

"Holy Son?!"

"This traitor is stubborn, why bother talking to him anymore?"

"I think we should attack first, clear the door and take back the Holy Sword."

"This beast has sent out a sound transmission note, and the monks of Tianyi Sect and Tianmo Sect may arrive at any time. The longer the night, the more dreams there are!"

Zishan stopped temporarily at Tang Tianbao's signal. When she heard the obviously mocking smile, her face suddenly changed and she said angrily.

She said this not because of emotion, but after rational consideration.

At this time, the team had one dead, one injured and one betrayed, and its strength was unprecedentedly weak. If it ran into the monks of Tianyi Sect or Tianmo Sect at this time, there would be many changes.

In Zishan's eyes, taking back the holy sword and clearing the door is the most important thing.

As for the reason, it is secondary. What should have happened has already happened. It is meaningless to pursue the reason and the current situation.

"Could it be that you are still brooding over the past?"

"In the competition for the position of the Holy Son, our assessment scores were equal, and it was Elder Shi who presided over and made the final judgment."

"Although I won in the end, I didn't cheat at all,"

After hearing Zhou Ziwen's words, Tang Tianbao's expression froze and he said frankly.

"Win?!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen still sneered, but the smile was a little bitter.

It seems that there is another hidden story, but he did not explain anything.

"It seems that you are very proud of your "victory"?"

"You think you won, but you know nothing!"

"It's been less than a year since the elder's death. Look at what the Holy Church has become because of you?"

"What about making friends with all kinds of monks and befriending major families? All of them are useless."

"This is Xisha!"

"The trick of playing tricks won't work here!"

"Yes, I was the one who leaked the news. Whether it was Tianyi Sect or Tianmo Sect, I notified them in place."

Bitterness, jealousy, anger, coldness... Zhou Ziwen's eyes flashed with many colors, and finally he returned to his serious look.

Without waiting for Tang Tianbao to answer, he continued:

"Yes, I did it on purpose."

"While seizing the Holy Sword, I must also get rid of you old stubborn people and bring the Holy Church back on the right track."

"Also, you are my other identity, doesn't Elder Shi know?!"

"......"

As it concerns the only golden elixir elder who has fallen, the attention of Tang Tianbao and the other two is completely attracted by the information in his words.

"Blood plague smoke"

Zhou Ziwen's mouth corners are barely noticeable, and suddenly he pinches a spell, points his sleeves in the direction of the exit, and uses the spell he has prepared for a long time.

"Puff~"

A large group of blood-colored mist spurted out from his sleeves and quickly spread to the light red light curtain at the exit.

After several previous probing attacks, Zhou Ziwen keenly sensed the weakness of the light red light curtain, so he specially prepared this highly corrosive spell.

Perhaps a long time ago, the light red light curtain did not have this weakness, but after years of corrosion, this became its weakness, and even the foundation-building realm can be shaken.

Because he had been preparing for a long time, Zhou Ziwen only took a little more than a second to use this spell.

When Tang Tianbao and the other two reacted, it was too late to stop him, so they could only drive the magic weapon to attack Zhou Ziwen.

Liu Yu remained sober from beginning to end, and was not interested in the grievances within the Holy Fire Sect. He just stood by Tang Tianbao without saying a word, waiting for the arrival of the two sects' cultivators, and the Holy Fire Sect would be restrained and both sides would suffer losses.

At that time, he would make a move and start a massacre.

"Puff"

The blood-colored mist enveloped the light red light curtain, just like a piece of raw meat put into a frying pan, and a violent reaction immediately occurred.

Wisps of green smoke rose, and the spiritual power of the light red light curtain was rapidly consumed.

But perhaps there was a problem with the spiritual power node, resulting in the inability to replenish the spiritual power in time, and the light red light curtain blocking the cave entrance became thinner and thinner.

"In such a short time, he has discovered the characteristics of the light curtain and guessed its weakness. What a keen insight."

"He is powerful and ruthless, and he has a keen insight and is careful enough. This person should not be underestimated."

Waving the Dark Moon Sword to attack normally, Liu Yu had this thought as he looked at the thinning red light curtain.

With the same realm and strength, Zhou Ziwen, who does whatever it takes, is undoubtedly much more threatening than the principled Tang Tianbao.

In addition, this person's meticulous mind makes him more than twice as difficult to deal with as the former.

"Fortunately, I have been living in seclusion for the past year, and I have only had more contact with Tang Tianbao, and have only met Zhou Ziwen a few times."

"Otherwise, the possibility of being seen through is not small."

"It is worthy of being the evil cultivator with the highest bounty in the foundation-building realm."

Liu Yu said in his heart.

Such a keen insight, even if he himself may not be able to do it, which makes him pay more attention to Zhou Ziwen in his heart.

He even regretted it faintly. If he had killed this person by surprise just now, the effect might have been better.

Who knew that he actually hid so much strength?

"Bang bang"

The roar of magic and magic weapons continued on the floating island fragments.

Since Tang Tianbao joined, Zhou Ziwen has been at a disadvantage, and the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse.

Although his spiritual weapon is sharp and his spells are profound, Tang Tianbao is equally strong and has a top-grade spiritual weapon to protect him. The four of them are not ordinary people.

Therefore, Zhou Ziwen can't change the status quo by using various blood magic or spiritual weapon attacks, and can only delay time a little.

However, although the situation is difficult, he still hasn't given up hope when he sees only a thin layer of light red light curtain that is about to break.

As soon as the abnormal movement occurred, Tang Tianbao controlled the khaki top-grade spiritual weapon flying sword to shoot out, and it seemed to be going straight to Zhou Ziwen's life.

But perhaps it was the influence of the words just now. When the time came, he secretly withdrew three points of his strength, which allowed the other party to persist.

Otherwise, facing a top-notch foundation-building cultivator and three powerful late-stage foundation-building cultivators, no matter how sophisticated his blood magic and how sharp his spiritual energy are, it would be useless.

As for Liu Yu, his performance was too ordinary and was subconsciously ignored.

"Puff~"

A strong corrosion sound was heard, and after a few breaths, the light red light curtain that blocked the exit suddenly went out.

Liu Yu clearly saw that Zhou Ziwen's face was obviously breathless, and then he touched his waist and took out five dark red round beads the size of bullets.

After throwing them to the five people, he controlled the spiritual weapon to protect his body, and retreated without even looking.

"Blood Evil Bead!"

"Not good!"

Zishan recognized the origin of the dark red round bead, and quickly transmitted the sound to sacrifice the magic weapon to resist, and did not choose to pursue at the first time.

The information of "Twisted Shadow" flashed in his mind, and Liu Yu instantly understood what the "Blood Evil Bead" was. He immediately held up the azure light curtain with both hands and retreated backwards at the same time.

Blood Evil Bead is similar to Tianleizi, which is a one-time means that can threaten or even severely injure late-stage foundation-building cultivators, but it has an additional feature that can release strong "blood evil" in a short time.

He avoided the first wave of power from the Blood Evil Pearl, but if he had no means to protect himself from the next wave of blood evil, the cultivator would be affected by the blood evil and lose his life without knowing it.

The method of refining this pearl is unknown. It is the unique secret skill of the Twisted Shadow. No other cultivator has ever possessed this pearl.

But many cultivators speculate that refining this pearl may require a lot of killing to collect evil spirits, and also requires a lot of blood.

According to various characteristics, this is likely to be an "evil weapon".

"Bang Bang"

The black sword shadow detonated the Blood Evil Pearl, which exploded about two feet away from the azure light curtain. A power that ordinary foundation-building cultivators could not resist swept straight towards Liu Yu.

He chopped off several pieces in succession, consuming half of the power of the shock wave.

Liu Yu did not want to expose his identity now. He judged that the danger was not great, so he tensed his mind and chose to resist it.

"Bang"

With a loud bang, the azure light curtain was immediately shattered, and the aftermath continued to hit the Dark Moon Sword in front of him.

"Ding"

There was another loud noise, and Liu Yu used the force to move backwards, dissolving the power of the blood evil bead while avoiding the deep red evil spirit that swept over.

When he dissolves the blood evil bead, the purple-shirted people have already chased him out.

Tang Tianbao still stood firm in his position, resisting the attack of the blood evil bead, and quickly rushed to the exit one step ahead of the others.

At this time, Zhou Ziwen was already standing at the upper exit.

But for some reason, he suddenly pressed the Holy Fire Sword on his waist with one hand and did not choose to continue running away.
