;&; Yun Shisan got up and went to the Grand Profound Hall. When he saw Headmaster Jiuxiao, he expressed his worries.
Headmaster Jiuxiao's eyes flashed with light, he nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. Although Nine Heavens Mountain is protected by the formation, the guarding ability will indeed be greatly weakened after we leave. If that person really has an agenda, Longevity Banquet may not be able to escape this time."
Yun Shisan couldn't hide the worry on his face and said, "Master, we can't take this risk."
Headmaster Jiuxiao stood up and ordered, "Send someone to invite the four of you and tell us that we have something important to discuss."
On Jade Mechanism Peak, Ning Chen looked at the disciples from the main peak coming up and asked Meng Xuanji to go to the Grand Profound Hall, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
Before Meng Xuanji left, he glanced at Ning Chen on the peak, said nothing, moved his lotus steps, and disappeared.
Brocade Hall, Flower Venerable were teaching their new apprentice Art of Listening to Flowers. After hearing the master's summons, they carefully warned Yin Shuangshuang a few words, then stood up and left.
The remaining two peaks, Sword Venerable and Medicine Venerable, also set off for the main peak, with puzzled expressions on their brows.
It's so late, what does the headmaster have to do with them?
Grand Profound Hall, all four of them arrived, Yun Shisan stood aside respectfully, silently.
Headmaster Jiuxiao explained the matter and asked the four people for their opinions.
Medicine Venerable frowned and said, "No one would dare not to go to Four Extremes Sacred Lands's invitation. To take a step back, even if he dares not to go, if he takes any action during Longevity Banquet, wouldn't it be exposing his identity?"
"Not necessarily"
Sword Venerable shook his head and said, "That person came with a hidden aura that day, so we thought he didn't want his identity exposed. But what if after he gets what he wants, he doesn't care whether his identity is exposed?"
"You mean, he is from the other three factions?" Medicine Venerable asked.
In this world, apart from the Holy Land, only Ascension Realm, Flower Cherishing Palace and Longevity Palace have the confidence to confront Jiuxiao head-on.
"It's possible," Sword Venerable replied.
"Qiluo, what do you think?" Headmaster Jiuxiao asked.
"It doesn't matter who he is, what we need to consider most now is what his goal is," Flower Venerable said.
"Nine Heavens Forbidden Tome, Separation and Union Pill, or Gilded Feathered Halberd, nothing else," Meng Xuanji said lightly.
Master Jiuxiao thought for a while and said, "Separation and Union Pill has always been kept by Medicine Venerable, and Nine Heavens Forbidden Tome can be carried with me. However, Gilded Feathered Halberd suppresses Jiuxiao's luck and cannot be taken out easily."
"It is indeed a trouble." Sword Venerable nodded and responded.
At the same time, on Jade Mechanism Peak, Ning Chen, who was practicing quietly, finally took another step forward and successfully entered the second level of the Houtian Realm.
When spiritual energy enters the body, within the Dantian Qi sea, the three cyclones of heaven, earth, and life expand several times and rotate rapidly.
Among the Grand Profound Hall, Meng Xuanji felt something at the same time, looking at Jade Mechanism Peak, a pair of beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
"What's wrong?" Flower Venerable asked softly.
"It's okay" Meng Xuanji replied after coming back to his senses.
After breaking through again, Ning Chen felt the Life-Death Severance Seal in his body more clearly. The shackles Meng Xuanji put on him seemed to become stronger and stronger with his cultivation.
Among the Grand Profound Hall, the five deities had been discussing for a long time. After half an hour, Meng Xuanji came back and looked at Ning Chen who was still practicing on the peak, and stared at it seriously for a long time.
She couldn't admit this kind of aura, but she felt something was wrong. This person didn't seem to have ulterior motives.
Longevity Banquet is right in front of you. If there is something wrong with this person, the result may be available soon.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and the five statues set off and left one after another.
Jade Mechanism Peak became empty. After Meng Xuanji left, no one came back. Only Ning Chen was left in Nuoda's Jade Mechanism Peak.
On the peak, Ning Chen is still practicing day after day and no longer cares about other things. He has reminded Jiuxiao that if someone takes advantage of him again, he will be really disappointed.
One day, two days, and three days, Nine Heavens Mountain was as calm as ever, without any accidents.
Sword Venerable and Flower Venerable, who were standing quietly outside the sky, could only leave without waiting for the person they wanted to see. Longevity Banquet was about to begin, and they could no longer delay.
On the fourth day, the weather was calm and peaceful as before.
The morning sun on the fifth day rose as usual, and Jiuxiao's disciples were doing their own things in an orderly manner, sweeping the floor, practicing sword practice, practicing mental techniques, and so on.
However, at this moment, there was a loud bang outside Nine Heavens Mountain, and the entire mountain guarding formation shook violently, and everyone's expressions changed in shock.
Ning Chen stood on the peak, looking at the figure in black at the foot of the mountain in the distance, his eyes slightly narrowed, what was supposed to come finally came.
In front of the formation, a figure in a black suit stood quietly, pressing his right hand on the looming mountain-protecting formation, his majestic aura constantly vibrating, destroying the formation in front of him.
The man in black was obviously well prepared, and the blue light around him was extremely strong. The mountain-protecting formation was gradually weakening and showing signs of collapse.
"Bang"
After a few breaths, with a violent vibration, the formation collapsed and dissipated invisible.
The black figure quickly passed by Heaven-Ascending Stairway, heading towards the main peak.
Jiuxiao's disciples immediately formed a formation, their swords soaring into the sky, to block the intruders.
The sword formation is exquisite, but the person facing it is far from being able to resist Houtian Realm, and all attempts to block it are in vain.
The black-clothed figure waved his hand, and surging blue light spread out. The Jiuxiao disciples in charge of the sword formation were immediately blown away, and fell to the ground one by one like kites with broken strings.
Chang Jiangli appeared, with a black-red sword in his hand filled with evil aura. The man and the sword turned into a stream of light, stabbing the innate strong man in front of him.
"I don't know whether to live or die"
The figure in the dark night snorted coldly, recognizing the sword that was coming towards him, and turned his palm to roll up the energy of heaven and earth. Silent Soul Sword was instantly stagnant, unable to make any progress.
"For your father's sake, I'll spare your life and step back."
Li Huarong spat out his palm strength, knocked back Chang Jiangli with one palm, and then walked towards the Grand Profound Hall step by step.
On the distant mountain peak, Ning Chen looked at this unequal battle, his eyes flashed with cold light, waiting for the backup plan left by the five gods of the sky.
Li Huarong entered Grand Profound Hall, and his spiritual consciousness swept across the entire hall. Just as he was about to step forward, his face suddenly changed.
At this moment, Taixuan Peak vibrated, a powerful aura revived, and four golden rays of light struck down, slashing at the intruder.
Li Huarong quickly retreated, but it was already too late. The four golden lights arrived in an instant, reaching the limit.
There was a loud bang, and the black figure flew out, staining the world with blood.
The next moment, four golden figures appeared, standing high in the void, their bodies shining brightly, like gods.
"Oh?"
On the top of the mountain, Ning Chen let out a light sigh, with a flash of admiration in his eyes.
If he guessed correctly, this was the avatar of the four venerables condensed with the help of Nine Heavens Mountain luck.
In front of the Grand Profound Hall, Li Huarong stabilized his figure in embarrassment, looking at the four golden figures in the sky, his mind was shocked.
The four clones moved their feet and stepped forward. Their majestic aura surged, and even the color of the heaven and earth changed.
The golden brilliance was overwhelming. Although it was a clone, it was still extremely powerful.
Li Huarong used one against four, three points to attack and seven points to defend, trying to delay as much time as possible. However, the four people's attack was fierce and difficult to resist, and their black clothes were soon stained with blood.
"Luan Fengchen, why don't you take action!"
Li Huarong looked sad and roared angrily.
"Heh"
With a calm and indifferent laugh, the wind and clouds swirled between heaven and earth, and a bright red figure walked out with a handsome face and long blood-red hair dancing in the void. As soon as Pu appeared, the space became violently distorted.
The folded fan dispersed and turned into a sad and slender sword light, as red as blood, extremely beautiful.
On the top of the peak, Ning Chen's expression changed immediately. He was such a powerful young man.
"The favor of the palace master is repaid today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rainbow Blade flashed past everyone's eyes like lightning. The bright red figure stopped and the four golden clones quickly dispersed.
Before the disciple on the mountain came back to his senses, the bloody long sword in Luan Fengchen's hand had disappeared and turned into a red folding fan again.
Li Huarong It's very ugly. If the palace master hadn't expected it and left a backup plan, he would probably die here today.
However, in the end, Gilded Feathered Halberd is still Longevity Palace!
Li Huarong walked towards the Grand Profound Hall again. However, at this moment, he felt a sudden chill behind him and immediately jumped forward subconsciously.
An invisible Sword Intent passed by silently. The white stone floor was as fragile as tofu at this moment, and a huge bottomless ravine was instantly drawn.
Luan Fengchen was slightly surprised, looking at the distant peak, a strange color flashed in his eyes, Nine Heavens Mountain actually hid such a strong person.
On Jade Mechanism Peak, Ning Chen waved his hand, and Sword Qi gathered in front of him. After a moment, Sword Qi swept out and swept towards the main peak again.
Li Huarong couldn't hide the anger on his face. He raised his body forcefully, and the blue light surged like waves, turning into an airtight wall of air, blocking his body.
Thousands of sword lights were blocked, and it was difficult to move forward, and there was a stalemate.
Ning Chen A cold expression flashed across the corner of his mouth, and with the point of his sword, an ordinary Sword Intent swept out. In an instant, Jiutian changed color.
But between heaven and earth, a terrifying Sword Intent appeared out of thin air. As it moved forward, its power became more and more terrifying. At the end, it turned into a sword that opened the sky and slashed down with a bang.
The blue air wall collapsed with a sound, Li Huarong's face changed drastically, and he wanted to hide, but it was too late.
A sword entered the body, and the body was seriously injured after a long battle. It could no longer hold up, and flew out with a bang. Blood spurted out and scattered several feet away.
On the main peak, the disciples of Jiuxiao who were lying together looked at each other in confusion, and the confusion in their eyes became more intense. What on earth happened.
Ning Chen stopped his hand, looked at the figure in red in the distance, and waited quietly for his decision.
Luan Fengchen also looked in the direction of Jade Mechanism Peak. After a moment, the red clothes dispersed and disappeared.
On Jade Mechanism Peak, a red light flashed, and Luan Fengchen walked out. Looking at the person in front of him, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Houtian Realm second grade, a curious young man.
"Down here, Luan Fengchen"
"Ning Chen"
Luan Fengchen thought for a while and was sure that he had never heard such a name before.
"I remember, I'll see you again"
Luan Fengchen nodded, and the next moment, the red clothes dissipated and turned into a stream of light and went away.
"Luan Fengchen"
Ning Chen narrowed his eyes and remembered this name in his heart. He was very sure that they would meet again in the future, but he didn't know whether the next time they met, it would be an enemy or a friend.
