Mortal Bones

"Yes." Xu Taiping smiled and nodded, "I have gained a little from the three years of seclusion."

After saying that, he stepped forward to support his second senior brother Dugu Qingxiao.

Zhao Linglong and Jiang Zhi, who were on the side, came to the two of them with equally happy faces.

"Junior brother, it turns out that you have been in seclusion for three years to learn boxing skills!"

Zhao Linglong stepped forward and hooked Xu Taiping's arm.

Ever since Xu Taiping was hit by the Bone-Breaking Curse because of Qingxuanzong and never had the opportunity to become a fairy, Zhao Linglong, Dugu Qingxiao and others have been secretly blaming themselves.

The three of them were naturally overjoyed to see that Xu Taiping was still able to improve in martial arts despite being struck by the Bone Crushing Curse.

"Taiping, it is right for you to follow the path of martial arts practice now."

Dugu Qingxiao slapped Xu Taiping hard on the shoulder, and then continued with a smile on his face: "After breaking through to the realm of refining gods, you will have at least three hundred years of life. If you can use these three hundred years to strengthen your body and concentrate on practicing martial arts, "Gongfa."

"If you push your physical fitness and martial arts skills to the extreme, you will still be able to achieve great results in the future."

Seeing how much the three of them cared about him, Xu Taiping really didn't want to keep hiding everything that happened to him in the Xuanhuang Tower from them.

But reason told him that if Dugu Qingxiao and the other three people knew what happened in Xuanhuang Tower in advance, it would be harmful rather than helpful to the three of them.

"No one can guarantee whether Jiuyuan Demon Realm has the means to detect the existence of Emperor Xuanhuang Wangyoufeng from them."

Xu Taiping thought in his heart.

"Yeah." So he nodded heavily to the three of them and said:

"That's what I thought too."

Immediately, the four people who had unloaded their burdens started chatting and laughing again as usual.

But when Xu Taiping heard the three people chatting about the "rusty lion master", he always felt very awkward and often changed the topic.

"Xu Taiping, Xu Taiping open the door!"

And just when Dugu Qingxiao and others were about to return to their respective dojos, the door of the small courtyard was suddenly hit with "bang bang bang".

"Why is this kid here?"

Dugu Qingxiao, who was already standing at the door, seemed to recognize the identity of the person coming and opened the door directly.

As soon as the courtyard door opened, a handsome young man in a white robe with silver hair was standing at the entrance of the courtyard with an anxious look on his face.

"Bai Yu?"

Xu Taiping recognized this young man at a glance.

Yes, this young man is the transformed bald eagle Bai Yu.

"Xu Taiping, how can you agree to Shen Li's question about swords? He..."

Halfway through Bai Yu's words, he saw that the person who opened the door for him was not Xu Taiping, but Dugu Qingxiao.

"Qingxiao...Senior Brother Qingxiao..."

When facing Dugu Qingxiao, Bai Yu immediately behaved like a child, and his voice became thinner when he spoke.

"Finish your words."

Dugu Qingxiao rolled her eyes at Bai Yu.

Bai Yu did not speak immediately after hearing this, but looked at Xu Taiping.

Although he is most afraid of Dugu Qingxiao, he will not disclose anything related to Xu Taiping to anyone else unless Xu Taiping gives his permission.

This is the tacit understanding he and Xu Taiping have gained over many years of getting along.

Facing Bai Yu's gaze asking for instructions, Xu Taiping said nothing and just nodded lightly.

Therefore, Bai Yu, who received Xu Taiping's permission, continued what he had just said: "Xu Taiping, you don't know something. Shen Li obtained the true meaning of the Yellow Maple Valley ancestor a long time ago and broke through the transformation state in one fell swoop."

"After that, although you suffered a heavy injury for some unknown reason and your level almost fell, a disciple named Du Ziyin from the Yellow Maple Valley found an extremely powerful soul weapon in the Xuanhuang Tower and helped you repair the trauma to your soul. Return to the Heaven-Watching Realm.”

"Now, although he has just entered the Wangtian realm, his strength is the same as that of a monk who has broken through to the Wangtian realm for more than ten years!"

After listening to Bai Yu's story, Dugu Qingxiao and the others, who had just been relieved, now felt their hearts tightening again.

However, the three of them did not speak, but looked at Xu Taiping in unison.

"Second Senior Brother, for martial arts swordsman cultivators, unless he is already at the Heaven-Watching Realm, there won't be much difference."

Xu Taiping smiled at the three of them.

Xu Taiping already knew about Shen Li's cultivation level three years ago. He was able to defeat him in the first place thanks to Emperor Xuanhuang's "Tiger Roar and Dragon Roar" gold-breaking technique.

But Xu Taiping didn't expect that Shen Li's soul, which was seriously injured by the "Tiger Roar and Dragon Roar" gold-breaking technique, would be repaired by the treasures Du Ziyin obtained from the Xuanhuang Tower.

But even so, he was not afraid.

After all, it was not like he had never killed monsters and ghosts in the Xuanhuang Tower whose combat power was equivalent to that of monks in the Wangtian Realm.

"Wangtian Realm, especially the monks who are new to Wangtian Realm, as long as they can decipher its true meaning, their combat power is not much better than that of the peak monks of the God Refining Realm."

Xu Taiping murmured in his heart.

"Buzz..."

Although Xu Taiping said this, Dugu Qingxiao was still a little worried, but just as he was about to persuade Xu Taiping again, a jade plaque on his waist that was directly connected to the Jiufu suddenly lit up.

When I picked it up and looked at it, I saw a line of words already appeared on it——

"Brother Qingxiao, please inform your junior brother Xu Taiping and Shen Li that during this sword battle, all the monks in the Five Directions World can use the spiritual mirror to observe the battle."

"If he doesn't want to, he can refuse Shen Li."

After reading the words on the jade plaque, Dugu Qingxiao replied "Thank you", then raised his head and looked at Xu Taiping and said:

"Peace is probably Huang Maple Valley's idea. This time you and Shen Li are asking for swords. The monks from all over the world can use the spiritual mirror to watch the battle."

The reason why Xu Taiping was reminded of this was naturally because he didn't want him to make a fool of himself in front of the monks from all over the world.

"Unexpectedly, this time it was Huang Maple Valley who took the initiative to ask the monks from all sides to watch the battle."

Xu Taiping couldn't laugh or cry for a moment after hearing this.

But immediately he nodded again and said:

"In this case, I will add one more condition for agreeing to Huang Maple Valley Shen Li Wenjian."

"What to add?" Dugu Qingxiao asked in confusion.

"Qingxuanzong must take 50% of the proceeds from watching the battle."

Xu Taiping smiled.
