Mortal Bones

"Boom!"

Just at this moment, Xu Taiping, who was sitting in the center of the Golden Scale Terrace, suddenly burst out with a strong breath again.

Following that, the fairy spirit with colorful brilliance descended from the sky of the Golden Scale Pond like a torrent, wrapping Xu Taiping in it.

"Hua La La..."

After seeing this scene, the Golden Scale Pond, which was originally dead silent, burst into exclamations again.

"Xu Taiping has broken through the realm of refining spirits!"

Mu Yun, who was on the stands of Guangling Pavilion, looked at Xu Taiping who had successfully broken through the realm, with a face full of emotion.

As a fellow cultivator, he saw so many powerful people willing to protect Xu Taiping, and it would be a lie to say that he was not envious.

"From today on, the name Xu Taiping will probably resound throughout the five directions of the world."

Mu Yun murmured.

...

"Haitang, it seems that you and I will not be needed this time."

"Yes, I didn't expect that Xiao Taiping could earn this martial luck by himself."

And on the stands next to Guangling Pavilion, a couple smiled at each other.

As she said that, the beautiful woman kicked a drunken old Taoist priest next to her and said, "Master Huang, let's go to the Dry Stone Sea."

…

"Successful breakthrough, Junior Brother has successfully broken through!"

"To be able to break through on the Golden Scale Terrace, with two Martial Gods, seven high monks, and a Sword Immortal as a guardian, this kind of treatment is unprecedented!"

"It will be hard to find someone like him later!"

On the stands of the Five Old Ponds of Qingxuan Sect, the disciples of the Seven Peaks cheered in a somewhat uncontrollable manner.

Even Dugu Qingxiao, who has always been steady, couldn't help but punched in joy.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a violent breath fluctuation suddenly broke out in the direction of the Sword Terrace of the Five Old Ponds.

The disciples, with a look of astonishment on their faces, looked towards the Sword Terrace.

Then they saw that the Lord of the Nine Prefectures, Liu Chuxuan, and the Sword Saint, Amon, stood in the center of the Sword Terrace.

"Lord Liu, and Senior Amon, what are you planning to do?"

Seeing this scene, Zhao Linglong looked at Dugu Qingxiao in surprise and asked.

Dugu Qingxiao, who knew some of the inside story, did not reply to Zhao Linglong, but murmured with a bit of excitement:

"You will know soon."

Immediately, as a rune light appeared on the sword platform, Liu Chuxuan, who was standing in the center of the sword platform, suddenly cleared his throat and said loudly:

"I am Liu Chuxuan, the master of the Nine Prefectures of Zhenwu Heaven."

"Today, taking advantage of the Golden Scale Meeting, the Nine Prefectures call out to the Five Directions of Heaven and Earth."

"After sixty years, the Nine Prefectures of Zhenwu Heaven will reopen the Zhenwu Emperor Sword Champion Ranking. At that time, we will invite sword cultivators from all over the Five Directions of Heaven and Earth to come to my Zhenwu Heaven to compete for the Zhenwu Sword Champion."

"Whoever wins the Zhenwu Sword Champion will be qualified to inherit the Zhenwu Emperor."

"Whoever is qualified to open the gate of heaven with one sword, slay the devil with one sword, and break the void with one sword, just like the Zhenwu Emperor!"

When these words came out, everyone was stunned at first, and then burst into a thunderous uproar.

…

“Zhenwu reopens the sword champion… list?!”

Inside the Golden Scale Pool.

After hearing this, Mu Yun on the Guangling Pavilion’s stand reacted the same as other cultivators. He was unbelievable at first, and then excited and ecstatic.

“Great!”

“Great, we sword cultivators finally have a way out!”

“After 30,000 years, the Zhenwu Sword Champion List has finally been reopened. We sword cultivators also have a chance to open the gate to heaven!”

Compared to Mu Yun, the sword cultivators around were even more ecstatic.

“Brother, why, why are these sword cultivators so excited?”

Mu Yuchen was a little puzzled.

“In the Shangqing Realm, the Zhenwu List is not open, and the speed of sword cultivators’ improvement is many times slower than other cultivators. Moreover, there is no sword cultivator who can open the gate to heaven and ascend to the upper realm with one sword. They can only practice and ascend step by step like other cultivators.”

Mu Yun explained to Mu Yuchen with great emotion.

…

On the Golden Scale Stage

"The Sword Champion Ranking has really reopened, great."

Looking at the shadows of Liu Chuxuan and Sword Saint Amon above his head, Xu Taiping, who had just successfully broken through and was still a little weak, was also excited.

"But this time, there must be many strong people present at the Zhenwu Sword Champion Meeting. If I can't break through the realm of transformation, I'm afraid I won't even be qualified to win the Sword Champion."

Thinking of this, although he had just broken through, Xu Taiping's mood to improve suddenly became anxious again.

"Wait until I go to Fengming Mountain, pick the earth fruit, get the treasure inside, and then I can exchange it for the Phoenix Marrow Stone from the six seats of Linyuan Hall."

Xu Taiping stood up while thinking this.

"Uh..."

But before he could stand still, his eyes suddenly went black, and then he felt that his soul began to uncontrollably leave his body and fly upwards, and finally reached a world full of colorful streamers, and shuttled through it quickly.

"Why is it like this again?"

Feeling everything around him, Xu Taiping's heart tightened.

Because when he broke through the Tongxuan realm, he also had this feeling of his soul leaving his body and wandering in the void.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Just when he was full of confusion, he suddenly felt a buzzing sound in his ears, and then his body appeared in a dark and damp dungeon.

Looking carefully, in a corner of the dungeon, there was a small figure squatting, who seemed to be a little girl.

The little figure's hands and feet were locked in shackles, and her body was covered with blood and wounds everywhere.

"Who... who are you?"

Just when Xu Taiping was wondering where this place was, the little figure suddenly raised his head, and looked at Xu Taiping with a pair of big eyes in surprise.

"You...you can see me?"

Xu Taiping was stunned.

The last time this happened, the people in the picture couldn't see him.

"You...you are the fairy sister, the one sent by the fairy sister to save me, right?"

The little girl's originally lifeless eyes suddenly became bright.

"Ah?"

Xu Taiping was completely confused.

After thinking quickly, he suddenly tried to ask the little girl:

"Little girl, what's your name?"

The little girl thought about it, then looked at Xu Taiping seriously and said:

"Big brother, my name is Lin Buyu, can you save me?"
