Chapter 665: All parties plan to go to the mountains and seas again
When Yu Lie was refining the Immortal-Slaying Sword in the Immortal Palace, someone in the distant Taoist temple was suddenly startled.
The other party waved his hand and summoned a sword-shaped rune, but found that the rune had dimmed. Even after thinking for a long time, he risked the information being intercepted and sent a voice transmission.
The other side of the rune remained silent.
"What on earth is going on? That guy is the most experienced swordsman in the Chaos Palace. Could it be that..."
Gao Yunzi frowned. He had to quickly put down the incense burner, pray towards the sky, and communicate with the Taoist Lord of the Taoist Court who had bestowed this talisman.
Daojun's reply was quite timely. Immediately, a voice message was heard in Gao Yunzi's ears:
"Why are you calling me so urgently? Is there something important happening? Is there a problem in Taozhou or Qianzhou?"
Gao Yunzi quickly replied: "I have come to see the Taoist Lord. It is true that something important has happened, but it is not Taozhou or Qianzhou, but the Chaos Immortal Palace."
He immediately informed Taoist Master Yang Chun that the talisman used to contact the Immortal-Slaying Sword Master had failed.
When Taoist Master Yang Chun heard this, he was quite skeptical at first, so he asked Gao Yunzi to hand the talisman to him so that he could try it himself.
The result was just as Gao Yunzi said. The talisman was intact and could emit spiritual light, but it could not utter a single word. People couldn't help but wonder whether the other side of the talisman was damaged.
After thinking about it, Taoist Yang Chun sighed and said, "It really shouldn't be. The other end of this spell is the Immortal Sword Master himself. In order to keep it secret, it has only given one way to contact it, which is the one in your hand. Even I don't have any other way to contact it.
Now that it has not replied, there are only two explanations.”
Gao Yunzi's heart moved, and he whispered, "May I ask the Emperor, which two explanations are they?"
The shadow of Taoist Yang Chun sneered: Either this creature is cowardly and has cut off contact with us, or it has suffered a serious injury or even died, so the rune in your hand is motionless.
"This..." Gao Yunzi showed a look of surprise:
"What should we do? Should we postpone or even change the arrangements for the Dancheng celebration?"
Taoist Yang Chun thought for a while, snorted coldly, and ordered lightly:
"That's fine. I've already known that this kind of traitor cannot be trusted. With or without it, it won't affect the overall situation. Just continue to prepare."
Gao Yunzi's face turned serious, and he immediately bowed and accepted the order:
"Yes! Disciple obeys your command."
Afterwards, Taoist Master Yang Chun gave a few more instructions and took the initiative to end this divine descent.
In the Taoist temple, Gao Yunzi kept bending over, and only stood up when the incense in the incense burner was completely burned out.
At this time, although Gao Yunzi's face still looked bad and his brows were slightly wrinkled, his eyes were very calm, and he just said quietly:
"It seems that the Chaos Immortal Palace is not an easy target for anyone to plot against. It has a lot of background. No wonder Yu Lie was able to achieve the first-grade elixir after entering this palace."
For a time, Gao Yunzi felt suspicious about the arrangements made by Daoting, especially in recent days, he had lost contact with the two chess pieces placed inside the Huoluan Immortal Palace.
This person thought to himself:
"Is the first-grade golden elixir really so easy to plot? Daojun, you first restrained Shen Linzi, and now you want to use Yu Liezi. Aren't you afraid of destroying our dynasty?"
As far as Gao Yunzi knew, in history, just one first-grade golden elixir could overthrow a prosperous Taoist court and clean up the world again. Now, Taoist Master Yang Chun actually wanted to play with two first-grade golden elixirs at will, and the risk was really great.
If it weren't for the fact that Taoist Master Yang Chun wasn't the only one intervening in this matter, Gao Yunzi would have wanted to give up and leave immediately.
He thought secretly: "But even with the approval of the Great Heavenly Venerable, there are still variables in this matter. I, Gao Yunzi, must make some plans early, so as not to end up being abandoned."
........................
the other side.
Seven days and seven nights passed.
Yu Lie was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room when he suddenly opened his eyes, a look of great joy bursting in his eyes.
He stretched out his hand and the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons furnace suddenly jumped out from the void and spun around in front of him.
At this moment, the ghost furnace was filled with sword light and sword energy that was more than ten times denser than seven days ago, and its color was also much richer, allowing Yu Lie to see at a glance that this thing was much heavier, as if this furnace alone could flatten a mountain.
And this change in the gas phase is only the most insignificant change in the ghost furnace.
Yu Lie bowed towards the furnace and called out, "Please show yourself, fellow Taoist."
With a hum, the ghost furnace trembled all over, and a line of white light spurted out of the mouth. It had a mouth, eyes, and all the facial features, and was vaguely in human shape, but the shape seemed both real and illusory. It was the ghost sword in the ghost furnace.
However, this ghost sword was not the one transformed from the White Bone Guardian God when the sword furnace was refined, but the new one that Yu Lie had been busy refining these days.
This sword does not obey commands like the White Bone Ghost Sword.
After Yu Lie summoned it out, he immediately made sword gestures, trying to drive it to fly, but the ghost sword only jumped a little, as a way of giving Yu Lie face, and then remained motionless.
Seeing this situation, Yu Lie did not feel disappointed, but instead a look of joy appeared on his face.
This is because the predecessor of this ghost sword is the Immortal Sword Master and his original body.
At this moment, Yu Lie, with the help of the "voluntary" of the Immortal-Slaying Sword User, the immortal-slaying energy and the bronze wine cup, and the burning of the immortal energy, successfully sealed the Immortal-Slaying Sword User in his own Night Parade of a Hundred Demons furnace.
At this moment, the Sword Master of the Immortal Slaying Sword can no longer be called a Sword Master, but the spirit of the sword, and should be called "The Sword of the Immortal Slaying Sword" or the Sword Spirit of the Immortal Slaying Sword.
Yu Lie only needs to grasp the sword body to command the sword spirit.
His previous memories had been completely erased, but because his intelligence had been properly preserved and he had his own temper, he didn't really obey Yu Lie's orders.
This is the proof that its intelligence is perfect, it has been properly refined, and its power has not been greatly reduced.
"This sword is comparable to a true immortal sword. It is already remarkable that my Ghost Furnace can contain it. If I want to drive this immortal sword again, I will be powerless. If the intelligence of the Immortal-Slaying Sword is damaged, it will be inconvenient for me to drive it."
Yu Lie thought secretly in his heart.
At the same time, his attitude towards the Immortal-Slaying Sword was also very different from before, and he became very polite.
He wanted to put the Immortal-Slaying Sword back into the Ghost Furnace first, so he muttered, "Please return to the furnace, fellow Daoist." Then he pinched the magic formula and gave the order for the other party to return to the furnace.
At this time, the Immortal-Slaying Sword no longer resisted, but returned to the Ghost Furnace as it was told.
In the quiet room, Yu Lie held the furnace of a hundred ghosts parading at night, and the joy on his face became even more intense.
He said happily: "Now, I have completely mastered the means to fight against immortals!"
Before this, although Yu Lie had the Aura of Immortal Slaying as a trump card in his hand, this trump card was disposable and would be consumed. Moreover, it could also be used for enlightenment. If it was used in a fight, it would be too wasteful. It would only be worthwhile to use it to save his life.
Although the first-grade Dancheng body can defeat the scattered immortals, it does not mean that they can crush them. There is still a lot of risk. Especially if the opponent wants to escape, Yu Lie will find it even more difficult to stop him.
Now that he has the Immortal-Slaying Sword in his hand, if he fights with the immortal, he doesn't need to use up his trump card or put himself in danger.
However, in order to be able to grasp such a powerful weapon, Yu Lie did not pay no price.
First of all, the immortal-slaying energy in his body dimmed again. Secondly, most of the innate immortal energy, which was originally quite large in quantity, was also consumed.
Now, apart from having to keep some of his innate immortal energy for emergencies, the remaining amount that can be used is barely enough for him to accumulate enough Taoism for a full five hundred years.
Of course, compared to the above consumption, the gains from the Immortal-Slaying Sword were undoubtedly greater. Even if he had to use up all of his innate immortal energy, Yu Lie would do it without a second thought.
In an instant, Yu Lie felt more confident.
His quasi-immortal garden is now complete, the spiritual energy is not exhausted, the elixir energy in his body is almost infinite, and he has a fairy sword by his side. Even if he encounters any difficulties in the mountain and sea world, he will have the power to protect himself or fight back.
After being happy for a while, Yu Lie did not get too carried away.
He chose to close his eyes again and seize the time to improve his Taoism.
During the days of taming the Immortal-Slaying Sword, his own cultivation was in a suspended state. He would have to practice harder in the future to make up for the seven wasted days and nights.
Time passes slowly.
During the rest of the days, nothing major happened in the Fairy Palace.
Among them, the Immortal-Slaying Sword sensed through the secret method of the Immortal Palace. Although it realized that there was a problem with the Immortal-Slaying Sword's condition, it was relieved as the other party's life was not destroyed and it was too lazy to care about it anymore.
Others, such as the Son of Ancient God, various Taoist masters and disciples in the palace, were busy working for Yu Lie, and at the same time, they had more time to practice and enjoy themselves.
Now that Yu Lie had the Immortal-Slaying Sword at his disposal, he naturally no longer cherished the benefits of the Immortal Palace as much as before. He dismissed two-thirds of the people at once, and the rest took turns on duty.
All the extra spiritual materials in Liezi Hall that could not be processed temporarily were distributed directly to the disciples of the Immortal Palace by Yu Lie with a wave of his hand. Those who deserved salary were paid, and those who deserved reward were given.
This made the disciples of the Immortal Palace feel that their lives were several times better than before.
The joyous atmosphere in the palace, which had originally dissipated a little, was restored again in the Huoluan Immortal Palace.
With free time and spare money, everyone in the Immortal Palace began to prepare for the upcoming journey to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Many of them also tried every means to find out whether everyone would be able to move around on their own at that time, or whether they would have the opportunity to go home to visit their families, so that these "Taoist thieves" who had been away from the mountains and seas for a long time could go back to settle the cause and effect, or show off their power.
Generally speaking, everyone in the Immortal Palace was looking forward to it, waiting for Yu Lie to come out and lead everyone to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
However, in this atmosphere, there is still one person who is extremely conflicted about the upcoming journey to the Mountain and Sea Realm, and can even be said to be resistant.
This person is not just an ordinary disciple of the Immortal Palace, but his status in the palace has risen rapidly recently and he has become a popular figure in the eyes of everyone.
She was Tie Jianlan, who, together with Sang Yutang, was believed to be Yu Lie's concubine.
However, compared with Sang Yutang, Tie Jianlan did not inherit the Sword Garden, nor did she understand the formation. She did not communicate much with the Immortal Palace, and her personality was also cold and arrogant.
Therefore, others knew very little about her, and her increasing anxiety as the celebration day approached was not noticed by outsiders.
In a dark room.
Tie Jianlan stayed alone in the mansion, talking to herself, "Do we really have to follow everyone to the Mountain and Sea Realm this time? If something goes wrong along the way..."
As soon as she finished speaking, a heavy sigh sounded in Tie Jianlan's mind:
"Yes, I have to go. Besides, if there is a problem, do you really think that you and I will escape the disaster and be safe and sound by staying in the Chaos Palace?"
These words made Tie Jianlan's brows twisted into knots.
Seeing this, the remaining soul of Shi Hanzi in her spirit platform turned to comfort her:
"There's no need to be so pessimistic. Think positively. If there really are people from the sect near Qianzhou, this is a great opportunity for you and me to return to the sect. At that time, you and I, the master and disciple, won't have to hide like this, but can practice openly.
Besides, you are my Shi Hanzi's only disciple. When you return to the sect, you will be treated as a golden elixir. Only then will you have a chance to make a top-grade elixir."
Tie Jianlan's brows relaxed immediately, and her eyes revealed expectation, or ambition.
After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and nodded, finally making a decision: "Since Master has said so, I will obey your orders!"
In fact, this decision had already been made when Tie Jianlan gave up many sword cultivation inheritances in the Huoluan Sword Garden and chose to establish a formal master-disciple relationship with Shi Hanzi.
These days, she was simply confused because of her weak strength, the difficult situation she faced, and the news she had vaguely heard between the Mountain and Sea Realm and the ancient cultivators.
Even after making the decision, Tie Jianlan couldn't help but think again:
"If I return to the Mountain and Sea Realm without being noticed by many immortals, I will return to the sect and join the Taiyin Sword Sect... Wouldn't I really become a traitor as mentioned in the book? Will the Taiyin Sword Sect really not despise my background?"
All kinds of concerns once again rolled through this woman's mind.
Although the remnant soul of Shi Hanzi staying in her spirit altar could not see through her thoughts, he could guess why this woman was so uneasy.
However, Shi Hanzi did not try to comfort or persuade her.
Because it understood that with this woman's qualifications, even if she had the blessing of Heishuizi and Yu Lie, if she wanted to make a top-grade elixir, she still had to return to Taiyin Sword Sect.
"Who told you to be on my boat a long time ago?" Shi Hanzi sighed softly in his heart.
The dark waves continue to surge.
Finally, on this day, Yu Lie came out of the quiet room and was about to go to the mountains and seas again and return to his hometown.
