Mortal Bones

"Brother, Xu Taiping really won..."

It wasn't until Xu Taiping in the spiritual mirror sent out an invitation to the monks in the world that Mu Yuchen, who had been stunned for a long time in the Guangling Pavilion study, murmured.

"Won!"

Mu Yun nodded heavily with eyes burning.

Xu Taiping's stab blow just now had a huge impact on him, so much so that he still couldn't calm down until now.

"Senior brother, what kind of sword power was the sword that Brother Taiping used to kill the headless ghost?"

Ji Ye on the side was still staring at the spiritual mirror in front of him without blinking.

"If I read it correctly, this should be the power of the mountain spirit which is very rare in the martial arts field. It has the same purpose as the Daomen Mountain Ziyuan, but if you exert it to the extreme, it will be far more powerful than the Shan Ziyuan."

Mu Yun murmured.

Hearing this, the corners of Ji Ye's mouth twitched a few times.

As a practitioner who is proficient in various arts, he is very aware of the weight of the words "far more powerful than a mountain character".

"Elder brother, no matter whether the Pavilion Master agrees or not, I will definitely go to Xuanhuang Tower this time!"

Ji Ye, who had always had an easy-going personality, had a very rare look of stubbornness in his eyes.

Mu Yun knew that Ji Ye was touched by Xu Taiping's speed of improvement, so he reached out and patted Ji Ye's shoulder and nodded: "I will definitely convince the Pavilion Master to let us go!"

"What about me?" Mu Yuchen suddenly became a little anxious when he heard that Mu Yun only said that he and the two of them should go ahead.

"It's too dangerous, you..."

"I am willing to admit defeat. Xu Taiping, since you can kill two ghost kings on your own, I, the Eight Scenery Taoist Palace, will never break your promise and will definitely send the elite disciples of the Taoist Palace to the Xuanhuang Tower as soon as possible."

Mu Yun was about to refuse Mu Yuchen to go with him, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the voice of Guang Yuanzi, the elder of Bajing Dao Palace.

"This old man is so ashamed. If you dare to break your promise, I'm afraid there will be no more trust in the world of cultivation in the Eight Scenery Taoist Palace."

Mu Yuchen curled his lips towards the spirit mirror and muttered.

"You can just say this in front of the two of us, but don't say it in front of outsiders."

Mu Yun smiled bitterly and reminded Mu Yuchen.

Among the legendary three Taoist palaces, the Eight Scenery Taoist Palace is the most deeply involved in the world and the most powerful in the spiritual world, with eyes and ears all over the world.

"I'm not stupid."

Mu Yuchen chuckled.

And just when the three of them thought that this huge gamble that attracted the attention of the five worlds would come to an end, another voice suddenly shouted in the spiritual mirror:

"Congratulations to Taoist Priest Taiping for successfully hunting these two ghost kings."

Then look at the name that appeared in the spiritual mirror - "Three Emperors Dao Palace, Fang Mou."

"Fang Mou?" Mu Yun was shocked, "Isn't this the great elder who manages their world in the Three Emperors Palace?"

Being able to receive personal congratulations from this elder showed that the upper echelons of the Three Emperors Dao Palace had recognized Xu Taiping.

However, compared to this congratulation, the next words of Fang Mou, the elder of the Three Emperors Dao Palace, directly made Mu Yun's face freeze on the spot - "The Three Emperors Dao Palace will send the master of the God Refining Realm to teach the disciples in person within a few days. , and the eight direct disciples of the deputy palace master, a total of eighteen people went to the Xuanhuang Tower to help the Taoist Master Taiping. "

After a long time, Mu Yun and the other three finally came to their senses.

"Three Emperors Dao Palace... this time we are going to send out... eighteen direct disciples of the Palace Master and Deputy Palace Master?!"

Mu Yun couldn't believe his ears, so he activated his spiritual mirror and listened again to the shouts of Fang Mou, the elder of the Three Emperors Dao Palace.

"Elder brother, I seem to have heard someone say that the inner disciples of the Three Emperors Dao Palace are not allowed to enter the world and will only take action during the battle between heaven and demons. Is it possible that this time is an exception?"

Ji Ye's throat trembled, and he also had a look of disbelief on his face.

"This is more than an exception."

Mu Yun smiled bitterly.

In the world of cultivation, the disciples of the Three Palaces of the Taoist Sect have always been extremely mysterious. The Three Emperors Taoist Palace has strictly prohibited inner disciples from leaving the palace.

Like today, the situation of dispatching eighteen elites in the palace at one go is simply unheard of except for the battle between gods and demons.

"I have to go see the Pavilion Master."

Mu Yun stood up at this time.

Perhaps only his father knew the reason for the unbelievable behavior of the Three Emperors Dao Palace today.

However, before he could take a step forward, shouts from the five directions of heaven and earth rang out one after another in the spiritual mirror——

"I, Chu Buyi, the third prince of Nanchu in Youyuntian, would like to recruit two hundred people from the territory of Nanchu to go to Xuanhuang Tower together."

"Zhang Moyan of Youyuntian Zhenhai Tower is willing to recruit three hundred monks from Xiliang to go to Xuanhuang Tower to help Brother Taiping."

"Izumo Kingdom's Fenyin Temple, Ciji Temple, Hakuba Temple, Hakuba Temple, and Prajna Temple are willing to lead nine hundred monks to the Xuanhuang Pagoda to help Taiping protect the Dharma!"

"Xuanzhi of Yunyin Temple is willing to lead three hundred ascetics to Xuanhuang Pagoda to help Brother Taiping."

"Duan Xiaoyu, a disciple of Martial God Jiang Cuicui, would like to... would like to lead a hundred Izumo armors to the Xuanhuang Tower to help Brother Taiping!"

"Cheng Long Tian Dongfang Yue Cocoon, I am willing to lead the thirty clansmen of Dongfang Family to Xuanhuang Tower to help Brother Taiping!"

"Chen Hao, the Pure Yang Sword Sect of the Zhenwu Heaven, and all the disciples of the Divine Refining Realm of the Chunyang Sword Sect, can follow me into the Xuanhuang Tower to help Junior Brother Taiping!"

"Zhenwu Tianqingxuanzong leader Zhao Qian, and all Qingxuanzong disciples who are willing to follow senior brother Xu Taiping into the Xuanhuang Tower can obtain thirty thousand merits."

"Zhenwu Tian Huang Maple Valley Shenli..."

"Zhenwutian..."

"..."

Listening to the endless shouts coming from the spiritual mirror, the three people standing in the study all lowered their heads in silence.

Mu Yun clenched his fists tightly.

Finally, after the Zhenwutian sects finished shouting, Mu Yun slapped his palm on the table, threw a bag of gold coins into the spiritual mirror, and then said loudly:

"I am Muyun of Juemingtian Guangling Pavilion. All disciples of Guangling Pavilion who are willing to enter the Xuanhuang Tower with me can come to the dojo to find me!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Yuchen and Ji Ye both looked at Mu Yun with burning eyes.

"Brother, let's go see dad together!"

Mu Yuchen said with determination.

"Elder brother, the chief of the pavilion is to blame, and we will shoulder the blame together."

Ji Ye on the side also nodded vigorously.

…

Xuanhuang Tower.

Qianji City, inside the city lord’s palace.

After hearing the heroic shouts in the spiritual mirror, the old city lord sitting at the top of the hall felt his eyes well up for no reason.

Gong Shubai on the side pursed his lips tightly and gritted his teeth.

The hall included Gongshu Nanxing and other Xuanhuangtian disciples, and their expressions were similar to theirs.

Don't blame them for being so rude, it's really that they, the descendants of Xuanhuangtian, have been abandoned by the Five Directions Heaven and Earth for too long.

When I suddenly saw this scene today and heard those heroic words, I was naturally moved.

"I thought that the hearts and blood of monks all over the world were cold."

Sun Chi, the lord of the old city, stood up slowly at this time, lifted his short leg, and walked towards the people in the hall step by step. He looked up at the people who appeared in the shadows and shouted their names, and then continued:

"I didn't expect that this dying man could still see this scene."

As he spoke, he bowed and saluted the spiritual mirror in front of him, and then said with an extremely solemn expression:

"Taoist Master Taiping, I, Qianji City, will never forget this kindness!"

After saying this, he slowly stood up, then glanced at Gongshu Bai beside him and said:

"Bai'er, in the name of Thousand Machines City, shout to the five directions of heaven and earth."

"Yes!" Gongshu Bai nodded heavily.

Immediately, he suddenly waved his hand, threw all the gold coins in his sleeves into the spiritual mirror, and then said loudly:

"Xuanhuangtian, Qianji City, shout to the five directions of heaven and earth."

After saying this, he turned to look at Gong Shuchi beside him.

Gong Shuchi nodded, thought for a moment, then looked up at the spiritual mirror and said:

"Anyone who is willing to enter the Xuanhuang Tower to assist the elders of Taiping Dao can walk to our Xuanhuang Tianqianji City to receive the Xuanhuang Ring."

"I, the disciples of Xuanhuangtian Qianji City, all have their lives to guarantee for you."

"In addition, our Qianji City will send all the disciples of the God Refining Realm except the city guarding sergeants to enter the Xuanhuang Tower. We will not take any of the treasures in the tower, just to assist you in climbing the tower!"

As soon as these words came out, the monks in front of Lingjing were in an uproar again.

A group of monks with strong financial resources, such as the third prince Chu Yinan, even shouted their thanks directly through the spiritual mirror.

"City Lord, we have Thousand Machines City alone, and I'm afraid it's still not enough."

Zhai Mo frowned and looked at the city lord Shu Chi.

The number of monks from the Five Directions Heaven and Earth who entered the Xuanhuang Tower this time was already three to four thousand based on the number just announced, and the actual number of people who climbed the tower was probably even higher.

If only the disciples from Qianji City came to assist them, the number of Xuanhuang Rings might not be enough, if nothing else.

"Although all the cities in Xuanhuangtian are now in disarray, they can still see the current situation clearly."

Gong Shuchi crossed his arms over his chest and smiled slightly.

And the next moment after saying these words, the voice of shouting rang out again in the spiritual mirror——

"Xuanhuangtian Julu City is shouting to the five directions of heaven and earth."

"I am... the Lord of Julu City... Julu City will offer all the Xuanhuang Rings in the city to the monks from the Five Directions Heaven and Earth who are willing to assist Taoist Priest Taiping in climbing the tower!"

"In addition, all...all the monks in the God Refining Realm of Julu City have entered the Xuanhuang Tower to assist the monks from all over the world."

"All?!" Gongshu Bai was a little surprised when he heard this.

Gongshu Chi on the side smiled faintly, and then asked Gongshu Nanxing and others:

"I'm afraid you don't know yet, right?"

"You don't know what?" Gongshu Nanxing was a little confused.

"Julu City Advocate Honghu is Mr. Zhang and Zhang Yi who are accompanying you to assist Taoist Xu Taiping."

Amid the astonished looks of Gongshu Nanxing and others, Gongshu Chi looked at the name Zhang Honghu in the spiritual mirror with a hint of respect, and then continued:

"In these years, he knew that his time was running out, so he abandoned his cultivation and went to Xuanhuang Tower to find someone who could climb to the top."

While he was speaking, shouts from other cities in Xuanhuangtian were heard in the spiritual mirror.

Listening to these shouts, Gong Shuchi's wrinkled face raised the corners of his mouth little by little, followed his eyes and looked out the door and said: "No matter what happens with this combination, I, Xuanhuangtian, will at least fight with that Jiuyuan with all my strength. Fight!"

After saying that, he turned his head again and looked at Gongshu Bai beside him and said:

"Bai'er, take Miss Gongshu and the others to prepare. With so many monks entering the Xuanhuang Tower together, Jiuyuan will definitely surround them with all their strength. We must be fully prepared."

"Yes!" Gongshu Bai immediately accepted the order and quickly walked out of the hall with Gongshu Nanxing and others.

…

Three months later.

Zhenwutian, Qingxuanzong.

"Taiping, how is your experience on the ninth floor?"

In the stone room of Qiyue Xuan, when she saw Xu Taiping waking up, Fairy Lingyue immediately stepped forward to greet him.

After hunting down the two ghost kings on the ninth floor, Xu Taiping did not return to Qingxuan Sect immediately in order not to waste the opportunity of five life pearls to look back, but continued to stay on the ninth floor to practice.

"I persisted there for three years, but in the end I still couldn't defeat a few ghost kings deep in the snowy area."

Xu Taiping shook his head helplessly.

“It’s pretty good that I’ve been able to hold on for so long.”

Fairy Lingyue shook her head.

"By the way, Sister Lingyue." Xu Taiping stood up, "What's the situation in the tower now?"

Because he has been on the ninth floor of the tower, he has no idea about the outside world.

"Many monks from all over the world have entered the Xuanhuang Tower, but Jiuyuan has also sent many demon cultivators to block it, so so far no monks have entered the Xuanhuang Tower above the fifth floor."

"If you want to gather at least 300 people on the eighth floor of Xuanhuang Tower to enter the ninth floor, you have to wait at least three years, or even longer."

Fairy Lingyue frowned.

"It doesn't matter, I can wait while practicing!"

Xu Taiping shook his head.
