Pagoda Immortality

Although the viewing area is surrounded on all sides, there are only seats on the east and west sides, which are distributed layer by layer.

On the north and south sides, there are towering stone walls.

The sky is open above, and you can see the gray sky when you look up.

At this moment, the fifty-six peak masters on the east side are all old people on the Immortal List.

The figures coming one after another on the west side are newcomers from all sides. These people have never participated in the Immortal List Challenge. After coming in, they sat with familiar people, looked at the square below with surprise, and talked in a low voice.

Soon, nearly two hundred people sat in the viewing area on the west side, and the transmission vortex gradually calmed down. After a long time, one or two figures came out from it.

Lu Li and Yu Wenshu sat next to each other.

He looked at the ten ancient stone gates in the square below with curiosity, and thought, "Could it be that the duel is held in those ten portals?"

Yu Wenshu nodded, "There is a void battlefield behind each portal, and the duel is held in the void battlefield, but the rules are different every time. We have to wait for the Undead Spirit to come out to know the details."

"Undead Spirit?"

"It is a bit like a weapon spirit, and it is also equivalent to the master of the Undead City. In the Undead City, it is the strongest existence, and no one can kill it..." Yu Wenshu explained slowly.

"So strong! Doesn't it mean it can kill everyone here at will?" Lu Li said in surprise.

"That's not the case. It has no ability. If it wants to kill people, it must rely on the rules of the Undead City. In other words, if we abide by the rules of the Undead City, it will have no way to deal with us. If we violate the rules of the Undead City, it can easily use the rules of the Undead City to wipe us out."

"So that's it."

Lu Li was slightly relieved. "Then what are the rules of the Undead City? How can we know? Isn't it made by the Undead Spirit?"

"Of course not. If so, wouldn't it be able to do whatever it wants? The rules of the Undead City are said to have existed since its birth, and they are engraved in the most conspicuous place at the entrance. Anyone who enters can see it at first sight..."

"......"

The two chatted casually. With Yu Wenshu's explanation, he finally had some basic understanding of this mysterious place.

While the two were talking.

Ye Xuanqiu, the head of Mingxin Sword Palace, and the great elder Yin Bai walked towards the two people without haste.

"Daoyou Lu, long time no see."

Yin Bai looked at the two with a complicated expression and bowed to Lu Li.

Seeing this, Lu Li slowly walked down the stone platform and calmly bowed in return, "Daoyou Yin, Daoyou Ye..."

Ye Xuanqiu's cold old face finally changed a little. He bowed slightly and said, "I want to settle our grievances here. What do you think?"

Lu Li said calmly, "Of course no problem. Master Ye, just draw the way. I'm happy to accompany you."

Ye Xuanqiu nodded slightly, "Okay. Senior brother has told me in detail what happened."

"You and I have different positions. I don't judge Daoyou Lu's right or wrong, but from my point of view, you have indeed caused great losses to my Sword Palace."

"Whether it is reputation or foundation, there is no I am afraid that he will not be able to recover in a few thousand years."

"As the headmaster of the Sword Palace, I have to do some things even if they will make a senior unhappy..."

Hearing this, Lu Li smiled and interrupted: "Headmaster Ye is worried about Senior Xuanhuo, you can rest assured that since it is a fair fight, I, Lu Li, will never have any complaints even if I die under the sword of Headmaster Ye."

"But, I heard that Headmaster Ye's master..."

Lu Li had heard from Li Xuanhuo that Ye Xuanqiu's master Yin Changchang was also an incredible swordsman. Although his current cultivation was only in the early stage of Mahayana, he could also fight with some mid-stage masters.

Lu Li was also quite cautious about this.

According to Lu Li's previous temper, if the Sword Palace kept chasing him, he would definitely uproot it. It was precisely because he thought Yin Bai was not bad, and he was worried about the revenge of the other party's master, that he agreed to a fair fight with the other party.

But if the younger one is beaten and the older one comes, then his tolerance will be meaningless.

"Fellow Daoist Lu can rest assured about this."

Ye Xuanqiu then took out a golden silk and handed it to Lu Li, "This is a life and death agreement. I have already drafted the content. No matter who lives or dies in this battle, the grudge will be written off and no longer be considered."

"Life and death agreement?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenshu next to him frowned.

And Lu Li also looked at Ye Xuanqiu with scrutiny, "Fellow Daoist Ye, are you so sure?"

Ye Xuanqiu chuckled, "Fellow Daoist Lu, are you afraid? If Fellow Daoist Lu is afraid, he only needs to inform the world, apologize and admit his mistakes, and Shadow Tower will not be allowed to gain a foothold in Nanming in the future, and this matter can be left alone."

"Ha! Fellow Daoist Ye is provoking me."

Lu Li retracted his gaze and continued to look at the content of the life and death agreement. When he saw the end, he had to admire the courage of this headmaster Ye.

According to the above agreement

If Lu Li loses, the Shadow Tower will be subordinate to the Sword Palace and become a subsidiary of the Sword Palace, and the soul tablets of the high-level officials will be under the control of the Sword Palace.

If Ye Xuanqiu loses, the reverse is also true. The Sword Palace will directly submit to the Shadow Tower, and the soul tablets of the high-level officials of the Sword Palace will also be under the control of the Shadow Tower.

Equivalently, no matter who wins or loses, Shadow Tower and Sword Palace will merge, but the dominant party will be different.

Lu Li estimated that Ye Xuanqiu did this because of two considerations.

First, Ye Xuanqiu himself died. He was worried that he would continue to take revenge on the Sword Palace, so he found a way out for the people of the Sword Palace to ensure that the lives of the Sword Palace disciples were safe.

Secondly, if Ye Xuan himself wins, he can also revive the power of the Sword Palace by absorbing the Shadow Tower.

After all, the Shadow Tower can even destroy the Jinghong Sword Sect, which is enough to show that its strength is not weak. If it can be absorbed into its subordinates, the strength of the Sword Palace may be even better than before.

After Lu Li saw it, he also felt that this method was quite good. No matter who wins or loses, they can prevent the Shadow Tower and Sword Palace from fighting each other and causing bloodshed.

However, I was a little unsure as to what exactly this Master Ye was capable of, daring to use the Sword Palace as a bet.

"Why, is it difficult for Fellow Daoist Lu to make a decision?" Ye Xuanqiu looked at Lu Li with some sarcasm.

"What's so difficult about this? Although the stakes are not small, they are not unaffordable." Lu Li said disapprovingly, then stared at Ye Xuanqiu and sneered:

"It's just how do you, Master Ye, convince me that this bet can be fulfilled? After all, for such a giant as Sword Palace, it's impossible for you, Master Ye, to have the final say alone, right?"

"This couldn't be easier."

After Ye Xuanqiu finished speaking, he looked at Yin Bai next to him: "Senior Brother, please help me invite the elders to come over."

"Hey! Okay."

Yin Bai sighed helplessly, turned around and walked towards the other side.
