Taozhou territory.
The iron sword orchid traveled underground in Taozhou, wrapped in a layer of ochre-colored aura.
With a snap, the spiritual light shattered and her movement suddenly stopped.
Tie Jianlan sighed lightly, took out another earth escape spell from her sleeve, and silently said in her heart:
"Master, this is the second to last earth escape spell. If we still can't find the portal, we will have to dig underground ourselves, which will be even slower. And as time goes on, the fragments of the Chaos Palace will enter the world, and Taozhou and Qianzhou will merge with each other. By then, the 'portal' will most likely be exposed to the world, and you and I will have no chance."
Shi Hanzi heard it and answered immediately:
"Don't worry, the portal must still be there. Even if old monster Xuanxin is dead, the portal should still be there, otherwise Xuanmen would not let it come with the origin of the Mountain and Sea Realm... They would definitely not do such a loss-making business!"
But its voice was no longer as calm as before, but carried a hint of anxiety.
Upon hearing this, Tie Jianlan sighed deeply again. She began to ponder in her heart: "Even if I can't return to my master's sect, it's good to continue staying in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Yu Lie's elixir has now reached the first grade, and the Chaos Immortal Palace has been transformed into Tianzhou. With his protection, our identities may not be exposed."
The man and the soul continued to travel underground in Taozhou for a long time.
Suddenly, a surprised voice rang in Tie Jianlan's mind: "Quick, go east for three hundred feet."
Tie Jianlan was cheered up and immediately performed some magic spells, advancing three hundred feet towards the east as instructed.
"Go down another fifty feet... No, one hundred and fifty feet!"
"Yes."
Soon, Sword Orchid hovered in a dim cave. She stared at a stalactite with surprise in her eyes.
"Master, is this what you call the 'gateway' that allows us to cross mountains and seas, escape from this world, and even return to our sect in one breath?"
On the stalactite, I saw a few scribbles like a child's scribbles, with the words "Xuanpin" written on the left and right.
Shi Hanzi said excitedly: "That's right. This is the 'Xuanpin Gate', a secret method developed by the Xuanmen masters of our generation in order to break the web of immortals in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
It was created through the joint contemplation of the three major Taoist sects, which took nearly ten thousand years and consumed several worlds. It was not originally used to deal with the Mountain and Sea Realm, but to deal with all the universes.
Behind this Xuanpin Gate is the Xuanmu Gate. Even if the two gates are millions of miles apart, they can be reached in an instant!"
Upon hearing this, Tie Jianlan's eyes became even more surprised. She looked at the rune and hesitated in her heart:
"Master, I do not doubt the mystery of this rune. It can remain intact after being cleansed by the Great Celestial Lord, so it must be amazing.
What I am worried about is that this kind of secret technique must require supreme magical power to drive it. With my current magical power, even if I put all my wealth on the line, it would probably be just a drop in the bucket. "
There is no need to estimate the spiritual energy and magical power required for a portal that can span billions of miles. Tie Jianlan knows that it must be an enormous amount.
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Hanzi replied, "You are right. I heard that to open this portal once, one small world is needed. You haven't even formed your golden elixir yet, and I am just a remnant soul now. It is extremely difficult to open a crack in the door."
Shi Hanzi paused, then chuckled and said, "But you and I don't need to do this. We just need to send a signal within the Mountain and Sea Realm, and a saint will naturally come to the Xuanpin Gate to open the door for you and me, so that we can leave in time."
"Consuming an entire small world!" Tie Jianlan was shocked.
After being shocked for a moment, she began to doubt again: "With such a huge consumption, if we steal and use it, won't the saint on the other side blame us?"
Shi Hanzi understood her concerns and said confidently:
"Don't worry, disciple. I have already made great achievements in this journey into the mountains and seas. The Xuanpin Gate should have been prepared for that old monster Xuanxin, but now that it is dead, it should be used by you and me.
This time, you and I only need to be able to return to Xuanmen, prove that the Xuanpin Gate has been opened, and leave an anchor point, which will be a great achievement, and your top-grade golden elixir can be made immediately.
It is not impossible for a saint to accept you and me as his disciples!"
Hearing these words, Tie Jianlan's breathing suddenly became heavy, especially Shi Hanzi's last sentence.
She had already learned from Shi Hanzi that the so-called "saints" in Xuanmen referred to the three great immortals in the current Xuanmen Alliance.
Like the Great Celestial Lord of the Mountain and Sea Realm, they were also beings that could ascend to heaven. If she could worship such a being as her master, or worship him as her ancestor, she, Tie Jianlan, would be a figure like Shen Linzi or Yu Lie!
For Tie Jianlan, who has been poor and has no connections, this is an opportunity to change her fate and she cannot miss it.
"Yes, Master, please tell me how to open this door." Tie Jianlan nodded immediately and shouted in his heart.
"This child is teachable." Shi Hanzi murmured:
"This mountain and sea world, I have been here with you for many years, and I found that although it is not a completely evil practice, it is even more desirable than my Xuanmen to some extent. But this place is not a place for you and me to settle down after all."
After a few words, Shi Hanzi possessed Tie Jianlan, controlled the woman's body, cut her palm, and poured his essence and blood on the rune of the Xuanpin Gate.
"No need to bother too much. This door will come alive when it encounters blood. All you need to do is chant the secret mantra."
A difficult and obscure spell was immediately recited from the mouth of "Iron Sword Orchid".
Buzz!
The ghostly symbols on the stalactites immediately twisted and squirmed, and a line of blood light was released, growing vigorously, and was about to break through the void and leave.
Sword orchid watched this scene, her heart full of anticipation.
But as time passed, the blood became more and more intense, her body lost more and more blood and essence, and her face became paler.
But the void shrouded by runes still did not break.
"What's going on?" Tie Jianlan finally couldn't hold back anymore and asked weakly inside her body.
Shi Hanzi was controlling her body at the moment, his expression had become ferocious, and he wanted to drive more blood and essence to try, but when he noticed Tie Jianlan's weakness, he suddenly woke up, hesitated for a while, and stopped opening the door, so as not to force her and ruin Tie Jianlan's foundation.
"damn it!"
Shi Hanzi said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that the void of this mountain and sea world would be so difficult to break, much more difficult than before. It may be because the immortals are still here, and the magic power of many people is added.
No wonder the old monster Xuanxin didn't fly here and run away immediately after seeing something was wrong. It's not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't do it for the time being. "
Tie Jianlan asked anxiously, "Master, what should we do? Can we just wait until the immortals retreat?"
Shi Hanzi thought gloomily and said slowly: "No.
The Xuanpin Gate has been moved. If it had not been moved, it might have been concealed for seven days, but now that it has been moved, it will not be long before it is discovered by the Immortal Court of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Not to mention that in seven days, this place will undergo earth-shaking changes. This place will be exposed 100%!"
These words made Tie Jianlan's heart skip a beat, and she remained silent for a long time.
Fortunately, Shi Hanzi saw this and spoke out in time:
"Don't despair. I have another plan that may work."
It pointed at the blood in front of it and said, "This spell is complete. The door cannot be opened at the moment. It is just that it cannot break through the void and cannot contact the saint behind the door. You and I just need to find something that can break through the void..."
A series of words came out of Shi Hanzi's mouth, and the two of them discussed it, and the target soon fell on one of them.
He is not an immortal.
Even for immortals, under the suppression of the immortal will of the Mountain and Sea Realm, their magic power will be suppressed to below the immortal realm, making it extremely difficult or almost impossible to break through the void.
This person is Yu Lie, and he is the Yu Lie who currently holds a wisp of the origin of the mountain and sea world in his hand.
