The Bell Tolls, the Immortal Turtle Bears the Dragon Palace

If you calculate the time, the midnight bell will ring soon.

As long as he carries the invitation and successfully enters the Dragon Palace venue, he still has a chance to become the biggest winner of the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, thanks to the large number of Phoenix-born Unicorn-young Longevity Pill tickets, Dragon Seed Ticket, and Dragon Bone Ticket that Qianlong Lantern Festival have collected.

The situation may have turned against them!

However, they have not yet lost the ticket-collecting rules established by the Du'e Temple.

"Come with me to the sea, and wait for the Immortal Turtle to carry the Dragon Palace here."

Despite his injuries, Dragon Hall shouted at Long Ting, and then the two abandoned the martial arts practitioners of Dragon Gate, retreated from the battlefield, and rushed into the sea filled with lanterns.

On the Lantern Festival, the scenery was beautiful, but the sea had long been stained blood-red.

"Chase!"

"Dragon Hall is carrying a large number of Longevity Pill tickets, Dragon Seed Ticket, and Dragon Bone Ticket. Kill him and don't let him enter the venue."

Tang Wanqiu and Lu Cangsheng were the first to pursue Soldier Ancestor Marsh.

Outside the Bright Moon Seven Stars Pavilion.

A man and a woman dressed in white, representing Thousand Mile Mountain, shouted in unison, "All martial artists of Thousand Mile Mountain, heed my command! The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise! The Yellow Heaven's hidden dragon resides in Qiuzhou, fighting for the Zuoqiu Courtyard, fighting for humanity, avenging Qin Li, annihilating all demons and evil spirits, and restoring a bright and clear world to Lingxiao!"

"Kill!"

The experts from the Five Seas Realm under the banner of Thousand Mile Mountain were all dressed in spotless white robes, each one a prodigy chosen from among thousands.

They surged towards the fleeing martial arts factions of the Far West Ash Region.

Soldier Ancestor Marsh Shang.

Ge Xiantong strode forward, continuously channeling the remaining magical energy within his body into the Kanglong Whip, causing the five-foot-long golden whip to ignite rapidly.

"Whoosh!"

Upon arriving at the battlefield, he lashed out with his golden whip, which instantly transformed into a golden pillar tens of meters long, creating violent waves on the sea.

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young was surprised that Ge Xiantong had escaped. Knowing that something terrible had happened, he frowned and swung his silver staff to block the Kanglong Whip.

"Bang!"

On the other side, Zuoqiu Hongting's Dao Ruler struck down, but Phoenix-born Unicorn-young hands.

Scales rapidly grew on his five fingers, allowing him to withstand the magical energy of the Dao Ruler.

In terms of physical body alone, Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, possessing the bloodline of a pure Ancient Immortal Giant Beast, is in a league of its own in the Five Seas Realm.

He is the great-grandson of "Yu Jia," the last Ancient Immortal Giant Beast in the Lingxiao Shengjing.

Although Zuoqiu Hongting and Ge Xiantong have cultivated Dao Body, there is still a certain gap between them and his physical body.

This is why Zuoqiu Hongting so desperately wanted to obtain the Immortal Soil!

The reason why the three are evenly matched is that Ge Xiantong and Zuoqiu Hongting each have their own unique advantages.

"Whoosh!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Weiyi, like a fleeting glimpse of light, stabbed Phoenix-born Unicorn-young in the brow with his sword.

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young, suffering under the oppression of the Kanglong Whip and the Dao Ruler, had no way to avoid it and stared at Li Weiyi with extremely cold eyes.

Li Weiyi quickly realized with astonishment that the Yellow Dragon Sword had not struck Phoenix-born Unicorn-young's head. The Forehead Spirit Realm his eyebrows opened, bursting forth with bright light and forming a vortex of spiritual fire that rapidly pulled and swallowed the Yellow Dragon Sword.

Li Weiyi gripped the sword hilt tightly, spun around, and kicked Phoenix-born Unicorn-young in the chest.

With his other hand, he used the Startled Feather Sword to slash upwards towards his chest.

"The Sound of Auspiciousness and Calamity!"

The azure phoenix and qilin shadows behind Phoenix-born Unicorn-young collided violently, merging into one and rushing into his body.

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young let out a long, extremely high-pitched howl. Scriptures in the form of feathers and scales flew out along with the howl, causing the entire sea to explode.

Ge Xiantong, Zuoqiu Hongting, and Li Weiyi all suffered shattered eardrums and were injured by the power of the calamity, flying backward.

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young was not in good condition; he was sent flying by Li Weiyi's sword. Blood dripped from his brow, and a crack appeared on his skull, an injury inflicted by the Yellow Dragon Sword.

Trying to neutralize the Yellow Dragon Sword's attack is no easy feat.

The bright red bloodstain on her beautiful yet eerily serene face intensified her sinister charm.

Upon landing on the sea surface, Zuoqiu Hongting could no longer suppress her injuries and coughed up a mouthful of blood. She quickly sealed three acupoints on her body that she absolutely could not activate again.

Ge Xiantong's skin exploded completely, turning him into a blood-soaked figure, only his eyes remained bright. "You actually cultivated Dao techniques in the Five Seas Realm and even used them."

Both the Spring Realm and the Five Seas Realm are martial arts domains.

Or rather, opening the Trace Meridians, springs, and the Qi Sea are all the foundation of martial arts.

Only by reaching the Dao Seed Realm can one be considered to have entered the Dao through martial arts.

The techniques cultivated in the Five Seas Realm can only be considered moves and martial arts, far inferior to Daoist arts.

Ge Xiantong was naturally surprised, because the cultivation of any kind of Daoist technique cannot be accomplished overnight. It requires the help of special scriptures and the magical energy of the Dao Seed Realm to be used.

Dao Seed Realm Martial Cultivator who has cultivated Dao techniques will possess combat power that no martial artist at the Five Seas Realm can even begin to fathom.

Zuoqiu Hongting's face was pale, but because she wore a wooden mask, no one could see her true condition. She said, "Legend has it that the Qilin is an auspicious creature, while the Luan bird represents misfortune, both possessing Innate Dao Technique. It seems that this 'Sound of Auspiciousness and Calamity,' which combines the power of auspiciousness and misfortune, is his Innate Divine Ability."

Li Weiyi's heart skipped a beat. He remembered what Zen Sea Observing Mist had said: if the Phoenix-born Unicorn-young and the unicorn was indeed related to the unicorn that had escaped years ago, the consequences would be extremely serious.

Li Weiyi had threatened Lu Cangsheng with this before, but she didn't want it to be true at all.

Prior to this, Phoenix-born Unicorn-young had only cultivated the Qilin Battle Intent. In the history of Lingxiao Shengjing, there were more than a dozen people who had cultivated the Qilin Battle Intent, which was not unusual. Cultivating a special Breathing Technique of the Dragon Gate would give one the opportunity to do so.

When he unleashed his innate Innate Dao Technique imbued with auspicious power, it was a completely different story! How could he possibly do that without the Kirin Bloodline?

Li Weiyi stared at the two horns on his forehead and asked, "Has the Qilin returned to the Lingxiao Shengjing?"

This is a question that some of the old folks on Peach Plum Mountain are also eager to ask.

Li Weiyi's brazen question sent chills down the spines of those old men, filling them with a strong sense of crisis.

Just like...

The sky is falling!

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young looked indifferently at the rout-stricken battle on the shore.

Thousand Mile Mountain want to win without lifting a finger.

The Dragon Hall and the Long Ting fled into the sea.

Jiang Ning, leading Seven Mysterious Insects and a swarm of insects, is heading towards the battlefield where the four of them are.

Despite everything heading in the worst possible direction, Phoenix-born Unicorn-young remained calm, like an observer, and simply sighed softly.

Ge Xiantong said, "You see? No matter how strong the Demon Race is, as long as the major human forces join forces, they can defeat you. The Lingxiao people will not allow you to establish Demon Kingdom."

"If humanity could truly unite, there wouldn't have been ten years of war and constant internal strife. If Lingxiao Palace were worthy of its ruler, so many human forces wouldn't have sought refuge in the Ash Region of the Far West, becoming dependent on other races."

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young's voice was cold and sharp as he continued, "Besides, didn't I lose to you, Ge Xiantong, today? Li Weiyi... you are a worthy opponent!"

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young knew better than anyone that the root cause of tonight's defeat was Li Weiyi.

It wasn't just his own combat prowess and the swarm of insects he brought, but also the personal charisma he had been building up since before the new year. Like a legend, he repeatedly turned the impossible into the possible, reigniting everyone's confidence to fight alongside him.

Lu Cangsheng was brought into the war ahead of schedule, Shi Shishi was forced to expose his Ancient Immortal Giant bloodline, and Tang Wanqiu returned...

Perhaps they themselves didn't realize that the reason they became so radical was because of Li Weiyi's ever-present fighting spirit and Heroic Spirit, which inspired them.

Otherwise, Li Weiyi and those easily overwhelmed insect swarms would be far from enough to change the course of the battle.

Li Weiyi was very self-aware. "Don't flatter me. I'm still far behind you. The reason I can suppress my fear and fight so bravely is simply because my friends are on the battlefield. The people I care about are on the battlefield. Of course, the rewards from the Du'e Temple are also extremely tempting."

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young nodded slightly. "The greatest respect for a worthy opponent is to kill him with all our might, never giving him a chance to continue growing."

Li Weiyi asked, "Do you have the ability?"

"Squeak!"

Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors and a swarm of insects flew to Li Weiyi's head, while Jiang Ning had already left, leaving only her back view. As soon as she landed, she collapsed to the ground and never got up again.

Li Weiyi only looked away when she saw Zhuang Yue rush over and carry her away.

Phoenix-born Unicorn-young said, "Li Weiyi, you have exposed the Purple Sky Lei Seal, the Seven Mysterious Insects, and the entire martial arts foundation of the Golden Vein."

"Ge Xiantong, someone is definitely eyeing your Sun Moon Immortal Eyes. The Kanglong Whip must have at least five thousand scriptures, right?"

"Zuoqiu Hong, you must also have Forbidden Secret that you absolutely cannot reveal? Those who can cultivate to our level must have had extraordinary encounters."

Zuoqiu Hongting said, "It seems you have an even more terrifying trump card Sound of Auspiciousness and Calamity. Show it to me, and I'll see if you still have a chance to turn the tables."

The South City has no outer city wall, only layers of City Protection Array Light Veil that hang down to the depths of the sea, dozens of miles from the shore.

The moon's reflection in the sea rapidly grew larger and brighter.

Soon after, it covered a vast circular sea area, more than ten miles in diameter. The surrounding space stretched out, with rosy mists rising and auspicious clouds appearing, opening up a world that did not belong to the human world, or a mirage like a reflection in a mirror or the moon in the water.

The clouds and mist dispersed.

In the bright, full moon reflected in the water, a lush, verdant island appears, as if it has descended from another world.

The island is filled with magnificent palaces, whose grandeur and mystery can be felt even from afar. Beneath the island lies a colossal tortoise with an imposing aura, its body larger than the mountain itself, exuding an ancient presence.

"When!"

At midnight, the first bell rang on Peach Plum Mountain.

This means that martial arts practitioners holding invitations can officially enter the venue.

Once you enter the venue, you can exchange the tickets issued by the Du'e Temple on New Year's Eve for corresponding rewards. Moreover, fighting and killing are prohibited within the venue.

A harmonious and pleasant festive atmosphere is essential.

The bell tolls once every hour.

At 11:45 AM, when the fourth bell tolls, anyone who has not yet entered the venue is considered to have automatically forfeited their participation.

Dragon Hall and Long Ting charged ahead of everyone, getting closer and closer to the Immortal Turtle Dragon Palace, their eyes filled with anticipation and awe.

The Dragon Palace, a legendary palace once inhabited by flying dragons, is considered an unparalleled sacred land by the disciples of the Dragon Gate.
