"There's no need to talk about it anymore."
Chen Shuangbai said decisively, "Fellow Daoist Du, you don't need to say anything more."
"I will personally go and get him back. Just tell him that I, Chen, disagree."
Upon hearing this, Du Taixuan's expression first showed surprise, then he relaxed, let out a long sigh, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, " Taixuan understands."
Since things had come to this point, Du Taixuan was powerless to do anything about it, and instead felt relieved.
Just as he was about to take his leave, he saw the sword immortal take something off his person.
It was an extremely fine white feather.
The veins are clearly visible, with a shimmering white light flickering within.
Du Taixuan was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening, and his face immediately turned ugly. " Su Po... you've left a curse on me?!"
He never expected that his well-intentioned act as a mediator would lead to the Su Po secretly casting a spell on him, using his movements to spy on Chen Shuangbai's whereabouts!
The white feather gradually rose to the surface, and from within it came a slightly aged female voice, sighing deeply:
"The Sword Immortal truly lives up to his reputation as a peerless genius!"
"My spell is so well concealed that even a seasoned Old Devil in the Nascent Soul Middle Stage stage wouldn't be able to detect it... I was still careless."
Du Taixuan gritted his teeth, a hint of anger surfacing in his voice:
" Su Po, I kindly relayed your message, and you treat me like a spy?!"
From within that white feather, Su Po's voice rang out again, tinged with apology, but even more so with helplessness:
"Fellow Daoist Du, this time it was indeed my fault."
"Once this matter is resolved, I will definitely visit you in person to apologize!"
At this point, the mysterious Nascent Soul True Lord paused, then continued:
"But there's nothing we can do about it. You've seen the methods of this Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal —he killed the five demon lords of the Crimson Fire Cave without batting an eye."
"If I hadn't made some preparations, I'm afraid I wouldn't even know how I died."
Du Taixuan was so angry that he trembled all over, but he had nothing to say.
Chen Shuangbai remained calm, as if she had expected this all along.
He reached out and gently picked up the white feather floating in the air, examined it for a moment, and then said calmly, "It's good to have an apology... but I think, since you're already here, wouldn't it be more sincere to apologize directly?"
That's all.
Chen Shuangbai held the white feather between her palms and applied slight pressure. A wisp of golden-white light seeped out from between them and disappeared into the white feather.
The white feather seemed to tremble, constantly crumbling...
Seeing that the situation was not good, Su True Lord Su Po decisively withdrew the wisp of spiritual thought that she had left inside.
"Sword Immortal, hold your hand!"
The Su Po's voice carried a hint of panic, "I mean no harm, I simply wish to have a proper discussion with the Sword Immortal!"
"Then let's talk it out!"
As the last word fell, Bai Yu shattered into streaks of light, but instead of disappearing into thin air, Chen Shuangbai raised her hand and pointed them together into a ball of pure white light. Slowly, a very thin white line gradually emerged in the void, leading into the the Unseen.
"This..."
Gao Ling and Du Taixuan were both stunned for a moment.
Chen Shuangbai mainly cultivates two profound skills. In addition to the [ Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method ], there is also the [ True Illumination Cavern Abyss Five Qi Art ], which is directly passed down from the Heavenly River Dao Lineage. The former is to comprehend the changes of the twelve phases of the Grand Yin, and the latter is to comprehend the five changes and five virtues of water.
This move is a profound reversal of the vastness of the martial world, gleaned from the five transformations of water, and is called the Upstream Tracing Method.
Using the traces left behind by the other party as a guide, trace back to its origin!
The extremely thin white line meandered through the void, extending continuously, and finally, before True Lord Su Po discovered it, it traced back to a lost alien space.
Without even needing to be told, Haoming Boy decisively [opened the door].
Chen Shuangbai stepped into the purple light gate that appeared out of thin air, and landed in this alien space. He was greeted by a desolate and ancient alien space, without any land, only an endless ocean.
In this endless ocean, a colossal creature was frolicking. Suddenly sensing several strange auras, it had already half of its body disappear into a rift in the void, leaving only its long green snake tail and two broad white wings that resembled those of a white crane.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Shuangbai recognized the true form of the Su Po.
"So it was the Feathered Serpent..."
The Feathered Serpent is an High Antiquity and exotic species, born with the ability to manipulate clouds and water vapor, and skilled in stealth and escape.
No wonder she was able to roam freely at sea for so many years and keep a low profile, with few people able to track her down; it turns out there was something truly miraculous about her.
"Wrong!"
Shenyang's voice rang in his ears, and the golden-robed youth activated his golden magic eyes to examine him carefully. He said in a deep voice, "If it were a pure-blooded Feathered Serpent, it would already be a Spirit Transformation level Great Sage of the Demon Race upon reaching adulthood. How could it be stuck at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage?!"
That makes sense. Pure-blooded Feathered Serpent are genuine High Antiquity species. Why would they covet the essence of the Jade Spring Sect Sect's lineage on Gao Yi?!
Shenyang took a step forward, and his body exploded into billions of golden rays.
After Gao Ling also stepped into this alien space, he saw a "blazing sun" appear in the sky. This blazing sun directly grabbed the alien species, whose body was about three hundred feet long, from the void rift. The golden light and powerful Qi and Blood on its body melted, causing the golden light around its body to expand several times again!
"Let go!"
On the other side of the void rift, Su Po's voice faintly revealed a look of rage. She immediately sensed that someone was holding back the tip of her tail. With a determined heart, a blue-purple Divine Ability light burst forth from her body, transforming into thousands of blue-purple lightning bolts, all of which were transmitted towards Shenyang!
Shenyang let the yin lightning fall on him, but it was stopped by the armor formed by the powerful Qi and Blood and qi on his body. Instead, he chuckled and burst out with even more dazzling golden light!
"Give me--"
He gripped the Feathered Serpent's long tail tightly, feeling his hands swell several times their original size. His powerful Qi and Blood and qi erupted and surged like flames. The force was so great that it even distorted the surrounding void, and the seawater evaporated into large swaths of white steam!
At the other end of the void rift, Su Po let out a painful groan, clearly being torn apart by the extremely tyrannical power of the Shenyang.
She struggled desperately, and the bluish-purple electric currents bombarded Shenyang's body, but she could not break free from those iron-like grips.
"Get back here!"
Amidst a deafening roar!
The enormous creature that had already entered was being pulled back bit by bit by the golden-clad youth.
Shenyang roared and suddenly poured his Law Power into his arms once more!
The power of Qi and Blood surged into the sky!
The mixed-blood Feathered Serpent was actually pulled intact from the void rift by the golden-clad youth before him, and crashed onto the sea surface with a bang, creating a towering wave!
Su Po lay sprawled on the sea, her emerald green snake eyes filled with a mixture of shock and rage.
The majestic Purple-Gold Heavenly Gate suddenly trembled, sealing off this alien space from both inside and out.
"I said, if we're going to talk, let's talk straight to the point."
