Awakening!

Daoist Longming looked at the three immortal swords for a long time before finally asking, "May I ask, Brother Daoist, are these three immortal swords the 'Three-Yang One-Qi Sword' that made the Peach Haven Immortal Sect's Three Yang Daoist Sanyang famous?"

"Good."

Lu Qingfeng nodded with a smile.

The Sword Qi cannot be concealed.

The three Sword Qi, and anyone who has heard of the Daoist Sanyang or the Three-Yang One-Qi Sword can guess their identity immediately.

"Hiss!"

Upon hearing Lu Qingfeng's response, Daoist Longming gasped, his eyes widening as he exclaimed, "Daoist Sanyang always keeps his sword with him at all times. This Three-Yang One-Qi Sword— "

Daoist Longming considered one possibility, but felt it was too far-fetched.

Yuxiangzi's face was equally shocked. Just as Daoist Longming paused, he asked, "Brother Daoist, are you heading to the Funeral Bell Plains, or perhaps to Jade Cliff Mountain?"

"Exactly."

Lu Qingfeng didn't keep them in suspense and smiled at the two of them, "Jade Cliff Mountain bullied my disciples and sent them to the Heaven's Punishment Abyss. I went there and sent my fellow Daoists Luo Gu, Shaoyang, and Zhongyang into reincarnation. My fellow Daoists Tai Yang, Wei Wuding, and Fei Hua went to the Heavenly Realm."

A single word was uttered.

Yuxiangzi and Daoist Longming a chill run down their spines.

"Such a bloodthirsty nature!"

According to Guangyuan, they clearly stormed Jade Cliff Mountain, killed Luo Gu, Daoist Shaoyang, and Daoist Zhongyang, and forced Daoist Taiyang, Wei Wuding, and Daoist Feihua to flee into the Heavenly Realm.

Such bloodthirstiness, such strength.

In the Material World, who can control it?!

"Brother Daoist, I Longming, admire your skills!" Daoist Longming came to his senses.

He was pleased that the Daoist Guangyuan was from the same sect as him and that the stronger the Daoist was, the better.

Seeing Lu Qingfeng's gaze linger on the 'Dragon-Whale Mountain' in his hand, Daoist Longming revealed a hint of smugness on his face. With a smile, he said, "This Dragon-Whale Mountain was created by my ancestor after observing our master's treasure, 'Emerald-Pupil Peak.' He used Law Power to forcibly sever dozens of mountains on the seabed that suppressed the Spiritual Qi of the dragon veins. Then he moved them into the magma of the earth to remove impurities. Law Power and incantations mixed with his own blood and sweat to refine it for over ten thousand years before it was finally completed. It can be large or small, larger than a mountain, smaller than a piece of sand. Once this treasure is completed, it will be Immortal Artifact."

This Daoist Longming comes from the Dragon-Whale Clan, and has a powerful background within the Way of Heaven Sect, having even been bestowed with Immortal Artifact. Although he is only Registered Disciple of Daoist Six Pupils, his dual status makes him a force to be reckoned with.

This great fortuitous opportunity in the Barbarian God Realm is different from that in the Evergreen Realm.

Those who can obtain a spot to be reincarnated in the mortal realm are all True Immortal with great backgrounds or great potential.

Those protected by Immortal Artifact are the most vulnerable, their reincarnations fraught with far less danger.

Of course, there are also those like Luo Gu Na, who are extremely talented but have gone astray and become True Immortal immortals on the wrong path.

Daoist Longming was clearly True Immortal from the upper realm with a powerful background.

"Dragon-Whale Mountain".

"My darling."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingfeng's eyes gleamed with admiration, and he praised it repeatedly. This 'Dragon-Whale Mountain' was said to be modeled after 'Emerald-Pupil Peak,' but in reality, both of them shared a similar essence with the High Antiquity Spirit Treasure 'Heaven-Flipping Seal.'

However, the differences between the three cannot be explained by reason alone.

Dragon-Whale Mountain is the least desirable.

Hearing Lu Qingfeng's praise, Daoist Longming's smile widened, and he became even more smug.

This 'Dragon-Whale Mountain' was indeed his most prized treasure. Firstly, it possessed boundless power; when summoned, the mountain would crash down, and no matter what Divine Ability powers or Technique Method one possessed, disaster would ensue. Secondly, it was a gift from his ancestors, representing the Dragon-Whale Clan his status within it.

Strength.

Status.

All of this can be found in this treasure.

Lu Qingfeng glanced at her a few more times, then turned his gaze to Yuxiangzi. But before he knew it, Yuxiangzi had already put away her bamboo staff.

Lu Qingfeng was somewhat disappointed.

Seeing that Yuxiangzi's hands were empty and noticing the look in Lu Qingfeng's eyes, Daoist Longming immediately understood and hurriedly said to Yu Yuxiangzi, "Senior Brother, although your Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff is not as powerful as my 'Dragon-Whale Mountain,' it is still modeled after Junior Uncle's 'Heaven Centipede Bamboo Staff,' and it is incredibly profound. Why don't you take it out and let Guangyuan take a look?"

He said it.

He secretly transmitted his voice, "Senior brother, I think this Brother Guangyuan is a cultivator from the lower realm, and his knowledge is too limited. He wants to see the Immortal Artifact, so let's talk to him about it. We'll be working together in the future, so as not to cause him any resentment."

Yuxiangzi listened, feeling both amused and exasperated.

So this Daoist Longming thought he was meticulous and assumed that Guangyuan, being from the lower realm, had little knowledge and was only curious about their Human Immortal artifacts?

"Decisive and ruthless."

"Does a ruthless person who has stolen four Immortal Artifact deserve your pity?"

Yu Xiangzi felt a bitter taste in his mouth, but dared not show it. He stretched out his hand, and the Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff appeared in his hand. His face remained expressionless as he said to Lu Qingfeng in a clear voice, "So that Brother Guangyuan may know, this treasure of mine is called the 'Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff.' It is made by combining golden-patterned water bamboo with twelve iron-backed centipedes, and it is modeled after the 'Heavenly Centipede Bamboo Staff,' a magical artifact of my Heavenly Dao Sect. The twelve iron-backed centipedes are fed with witch blood, making them extremely ferocious. They can arrange the Twelve Capital Heaven Formation, which is of extraordinary power and has many variations."

"Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff".

"It's a good treasure too!"

Lu Qingfeng saw this and nodded repeatedly.

This treasure is indeed no less powerful than Dragon-Whale Mountain. The former has fewer variations, relying on Myriad Arts force to overcome all techniques. The latter, forged from the Primordial World and exotic Ironback Centipede, can be used to arrange large formations, its strength lying in its versatility.

Each has its own unique mystery.

Seeing that Yuxiangzi had taken out the Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff and that Guangyuan was delighted, Daoist Longming immediately smiled and said, "Brother Guangyuan's foundation and Divine Ability are far beyond what I, Longming, can compare to. I wonder what kind of treasures your master bestowed upon you when you were reincarnated in the Barbarian God Realm? Would you be so kind as to let Brother Yuxiangzi and me broaden our horizons?"

Through this back-and-forth exchange, a friendship was established.

Daoist Longming stared longingly at Lu Qingfeng, secretly praising himself for his quick wit.

"..."

Lu Qingfeng looked at Daoist Longming.

Yuxiangzi stood to the side, his gaze lowered.

The atmosphere became somewhat tense for a moment.

Daoist Longming also sensed this, and with an embarrassed smile, he quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "It was Longming was being presumptuous."

He secretly sent a telepathic message to Yuxiangzi, "This Brother Guangyuan is too difficult to get along with. Senior Brother is better at speaking than I am. I'll trouble Senior Brother to communicate with him."

Immediately.

He kept silent.

In fact, given Daoist Longming's volatile temper, if Guangyuan hadn't been his fellow disciple and possessed unparalleled strength in the Material World, he would have turned against him long ago. He was Registered Disciple Six Pupils Daoist and a rising star among the younger generation of the Dragon-Whale Clan.

Truly fearless.

It was only in the Barbarian God Realm, and only when facing Lu Qingfeng, who had just caused the Jade Cliff Mountain, that he suppressed his temper and took the initiative to curry favor.

But we've reached our limit.

Fearing he would lose his temper, he quickly called for Yuxiangzi's help.

Yuxiangzi was also helpless. He looked up at Lu Qingfeng and said with a wry smile, "Longming Brother Longming has always been like this. Please don't take offense, Brother."

"It's alright, it's alright."

Lu Qingfeng waved his hand, not caring.

Yuxiangzi dared not linger any longer and said to Lu Qingfeng, "My fellow disciple and I have heard of your reputation, so we came to pay our respects. Attainment of the Dao magnificent appearance today, we feel our trip has not been in vain. We dare not disturb you any longer and will take our leave now."

As he spoke.

Fearing that Daoist Longming would ruin things, he simultaneously transmitted his voice, "Don't make a sound."

Really.

The Daoist Longming looked puzzled and was about to ask when he suddenly stopped upon hearing the telepathic transmission.

His eyes, however, were full of doubt.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingfeng looked reluctant and said, "Why are you two in such a hurry? My disciple told me that you have been waiting for me at Falling Geese Peak for several months. I have just returned and feel very guilty. I wanted to entertain you for a while longer to make up for my neglect. I hope you two will give me a chance."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yuxiangzi smiled apologetically and said, "Please forgive us, fellow Daoist. We have been here for several months just to see you. We have important matters to attend to and dare not linger. We will definitely come to Abyss-Suppressing Mountain to bother you again after we have finished our business."

This means they've made up their minds to leave.

Seeing this, Lu Qingfeng glanced back and forth between 'Dragon-Whale Mountain' and 'Golden Centipede Bamboo Staff'. Seeing that Daoist Dragon Whale looked bewildered and Yuxiangzi, who was trying to remain calm but could not hide his unease, he said regretfully, "Since that's the case, I won't keep you any longer. If you two have time in the future, you must come and visit my Abyss-Suppressing Mountain more often."

"Definitely, definitely."

Yuxiangzi was overjoyed and quickly agreed. He then hurriedly bid farewell to Daoist Longjing and left.

Outside Abyss-Suppressing Mountain.

The two streaks of light sped away, quickly disappearing hundreds or even thousands of miles away.

After holding his breath for a long time, Daoist Longming finally looked at Yuxiangzi and asked, "Senior Brother, do you suspect that Guangyuan will try to take action against us and seize the Immortal Artifact we have?"

I thought about it for a long time.

Aside from this, Daoist Longming couldn't think of any other reason why Yuxiangzi would be in such a hurry to leave Abyss-Suppressing Mountain. However, since they were both from the Purple Billow Water Palace lineage and had a teacher outside, even if Guangyuan possessed great Divine Ability and held the top position in the Barbarian God Realm, how could he dare to attack his fellow disciple?

Daoist Longming couldn't understand it.

"Junior brother, think about it carefully."

"From beginning to end, did Guangyuan or the disciple of Abyss-Suppressing Mountain ever admit even a single word that they belonged to my Purple Billow Water Palace?"

Yuxiangzi saw through Daoist Longming's thoughts and asked in return.

"Um?"

Upon hearing Yuxiangzi's words, Daoist Longming was taken aback. "What are you saying, Senior Brother? Although I dislike Guangyuan's temperament, his Du Tian Profound Method is extremely advanced. He destroyed the foundation of the Peach Haven Grotto lineage in the Material World. How could he not be from my Purple Billow Water Palace lineage?!"

Upon hearing this, Yuxiangzi's face was filled with bitterness.

Unlike Daoist Longming, Yuxiangzi was more sensitive and observant. From the moment Xuan Ningzi arrived at Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, he had harbored suspicions about Xuanningzi's attitude. Now, with Guangyuan's return and his further observation of his behavior, his doubts deepened. Just now, when Daoist Longming questioned him, Daoist Guangyuan's reaction was even more pronounced—

Clearly not from the Purple Billow Water Palace lineage!

"The Du Tian Profound Method are most famous in my Heavenly Dao Lineage. But besides my teacher's lineage, there are also my uncles, grandmasters and great masters. In the Primordial World, there are also the Heavenly Dao lineages outside of Heavenly Dao Lineage Du Tian Dao Lineage."

"Guangyuan is well-versed in the Du Tian Profound Method, but that doesn't necessarily mean he belongs to our lineage."

"Junior brother, think it over carefully. His Du Tian Law, how different is it from the Purple Billow Water Palace?"

After leaving Abyss-Suppressing Mountain, Yuxiangzi's mind became increasingly clear.

At first, I was completely blinded by a single leaf.

Because the teacher was vying with Yin Jiao of the Peach Haven Grotto lineage for control of the Barbarian God Realm, no one else dared to interfere.

Guangyuan, in the Barbarian God Realm, clashed with the Peach Haven Grotto lineage and even shattered Luo Gu's physical body, clearly indicating that he was not from the Peach Haven Grotto lineage.

He also cultivated the Du Tian Profound Method Realm.

A series of coincidences.

Without giving it much thought, Yuxiangzi subconsciously assumed that it must be from their Purple Billow Water Palace lineage.

We were able to stay at Falling Geese Peak Abyss-Suppressing Mountain for half a year, and we met again today.

Yuxiangzi suddenly awoke with a start—

It's already over 3,100 words. If it's any longer, you'll have to pay an extra penny.
