Everyone Had Their Own Plans

"The teacher has intervened!"

Outside the main hall of Zixiao Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun stretched out his hands, releasing the magical Law Power accumulated within his body almost tirelessly.

Seventy percent of his Law Power was used to maintain and repair the Auspicious Cloud Technique, twenty percent Law Power to control the treasure and plug leaks, and ten Law Power was used on the temporarily borrowed tool, Long Aosheng, so that the other party could catch his breath and shield himself from the fire rain and thunder and lightning.

The explosion at the Mohists's Mechanized City was not a single, continuous explosion.

Time has continued for a full 180 breaths.

Yuanshi Tianzun sometimes envied these alien beings. Although none of them had a good ending, they always brought something unique and surprising.

For example, the Mohists Mechanical City is not a secret place, but it can be flown, traveled on land, and sailed by sea. In addition to the unique mountain structure of the Mohists Mechanical City, this is also inseparable from a treasure that can spew out powerful air currents, producing an effect that is even better than the Wind Cave of the Immortal Court Secret Realm.

The fact that this heavy object is hidden in the Mohists's mechanical city and is hard to find is one reason why everyone is not greedy. Another reason is that this treasure is uncontrollable. The third reason is that improper handling will bring trouble, just like what is happening now.

If this is not the Zixiao Palace, and there is no Yuanshi Tianzun guarding this place, then such an explosion would undoubtedly constitute the clearing of the area.

Even so, Yuanshi Tianzun realized the effort and trouble involved in dealing with the aftershocks.

He felt that every extra breath he took to withstand the aftershocks of this shock was unbearable, and that each day felt like an eternity.

He is human, not a god, and he too will get tired. If the explosions continue indefinitely, even the Yuanshi Celestial Venerable will not be able to withstand it and will find it difficult to protect the safety of this secret realm.

Yuanshi Tianzun had some concerns in his mind, but when he sensed a slight ripple in the secret realm space and a large rain of fire falling from the sky, he was not alarmed at all; instead, he exclaimed with joy.

The fiery rain appeared in the sky above the secret realm, but instead of falling onto Zixiao Palace, it quickly and mysteriously disappeared.

"As long as the teacher uses his spatial teleportation Divine Ability, no matter how much we bomb, we won't be able to touch Zixiao Palace at all!"

The Yuanshi Celestial Venerable murmured.

But his surprise didn't last long.

His teacher only intervened once, and then never intervened again.

The rain of fire and the shockwaves from the explosions continued to bombard the Azure Cloud Technique, causing the Yuanshi Celestial Venerable to sway unsteadily.

"Perhaps the teacher intervened to help me because he saw I was still struggling. It's true we've been rather disappointing; we still can't seem to surpass our teacher's level!"

If you need to convince yourself, finding relevant reasons is obviously very convenient.

Yuanshi Tianzun filled in the blanks in his mind, while in the main hall of Zixiao Palace, everything was equally chaotic.

Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun were both hit on the head by the wooden dummy, and they fled in a state of panic.

A mechanical puppet without human control and a mechanical puppet with human control are two completely different things. Even if this mechanical puppet is ancient and outdated, the power it brings after being activated and used by the other party is not weak.

What's more troublesome is that the escape area within the main hall of Zixiao Palace is limited, and even the most capable escapers cannot get very far.

"Wood is afraid of fire, Li Shaojun, quickly use your fire-starting technique!"

Zhang Xuezhou shouted, and Li Shaojun responded with a muffled groan.

"If you're going to wait for me to cast a fire spell, you might as well learn how to cast it yourself!"

Although he was chased around like a chicken and a dog by the wooden figure, Li Shaojun felt a pain in his liver whenever he thought about how easy and simple it was for Zhang Xuezhou to learn the Shangqing Zhen technique.

He felt that Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou capable of quickly learning a fire technique because he could learn the Shangqing True Technique so easily.

Li Shaojun knew that fire counters wood, but that required him to be able to unleash fire magic.

Under normal circumstances, his success rate in releasing the Six Ding Divine Fire Technique is not high, let alone when he is being chased by the wooden figure.

He turned his head and looked around, only to see that the previously clumsy and dilapidated wooden figure had become incredibly agile and nimble.

The twelve green bamboo swords were controlled by the wooden figure using some unknown means. The purple light on the blades of the green bamboo swords shimmered, and the twelve green bamboo swords flew back and forth, thrusting wildly, creating bursts of whistling sounds that pierced the air.

Even though 'Gongsun Hong,' who was controlling the wooden figure, was vomiting, Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun were helpless against him.

Gongsun Hong successfully broke through to the Sole Self Realm, but he lost control of his body, and his cultivation and strength were controlled by this unknown Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun are good at exchanging words, but neither of them has the ability to fight across two cultivation levels. In particular, neither of them is suited for head-on confrontation, so they would inevitably be defeated if they encountered such a direct attack.

"Stop chanting those idioms, just unleash a fire to burn it, even if it means we all perish," Zhang Xuezhou shouted, offering his solution.

"I can usually play like this, but not today," Li Shaojun shouted back.

"Do you have to pick and choose days like this?"

"It's not that I picked this day, it's just that there's a demon lurking nearby. If I fall to the ground, there's a 90% chance he'll take over my body!"

"There's no such thing as hiding something around you..."

At first, Zhang Xuezhou thought that Li Shaojun was indirectly criticizing him, and he felt extremely uneasy.

But it wasn't until Li Shaojun looked around that Zhang Xuezhou remembered that bluish-black face.

"Brother, you may have all the skills, but we're both useless cultivators, we can't fight you!" Zhang Xuezhou shouted. "We don't have much time left to live."

"We can guarantee we'll find you a body," Li Shaojun shouted. "If you can rescue our accomplice, he's an excellent swimmer and can even dig your ashes out of the seabed!"

"Grandmaster Hongjun despises Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon the most. You're finished, your life is over!"

Perhaps because they couldn't resist Zhang Xuezhou and the others calling out to them, a sinister voice rang out.

But the dark-faced ghost didn't make a move; instead, he shouted something, even using threatening language.

"You've been imprisoned in the North Sea for a thousand years, living on, so your identity is probably no different from mine," 'Gongsun Hong' said, glancing up at us. "Now that we are in imminent danger, we should cooperate with each other, not have you helping these outsiders to target me!"

"Snort!"

A green bamboo sword, carrying a purple glow, flew towards a large beam in the main hall. A dark blue ghost face emerged from the beam and fled with a whooshing sound.

The dark-faced ghost snorted coldly and joined the fleeing crowd.

"It's difficult for me to completely annihilate you, but the Green Bamboo Sword can ward off evil, so it won't be difficult to shatter the divine soul you've condensed. As for how long it will take you to condense it again and step out of that place of suppression, that's hard to say," 'Gongsun Hong' said, covering his mouth. "Non-Self weren't willing to cooperate with you, what just flew towards you wouldn't have been a sword. As long as you lend me a hand, I can not only overlook your grudge against me for fighting over the physical bodies, but I can also give you the physical bodies of those two people!"

Zhang Xuezhou and the others were pulling people away, and 'Gongsun Hong' was obviously also trying to get help. He threatened and persuaded the dark-faced man, and gave him a green bamboo sword to keep chasing him.

He still felt a sense of unease.

There's no need for Gongsun Hong to bring in helpers to defeat the two minor cultivators, Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun. His real purpose is to lure the dark-faced ghost into the game, ideally giving the other party a physical body and the possibility of escaping.

Only in this way could the entity secretly watching him be distracted by both sides, and he would have a higher chance of successfully escaping from here.

Thinking of the possible existence of Hongjun Daoist, he couldn't help but curse, and then quickly succumbed to the urge to vomit.

If he couldn't escape this place and quickly find a place to recuperate, he could only rely on folk remedies to vomit out the foul-smelling stuff in his stomach and try his best to remove or suppress the inexplicable corrosive force in his body.
