Chapter 253: Illuminating the Four Worlds
Chapter 253 - Illuminating the Fourth World
Lu Chang'an's heart jumped slightly, secretly surprised.
In the three lifetimes, apart from the Hundred Lodging Soul Compass, this was the second time that the Nine Seal Tablet had reacted.
The Hundred Lodging Soul Compulsion is the only nutrient that can light up the Nine Seals Tablet in its fourth life.
Other than that, no substitutes have been found.
Lu Chang'an had once guessed that the Hundred Hosts Soul Compulsion was a kind of soul dao strange insect that needed to be hosted in a physical body carrier and contained mysterious soul dao power.
Then, was the nourishment of the Nine Seal Tablet's illuminated area related to the Soul Dao? Especially the soul.
One must know that the shadow of the soul from the previous life that the Nine Seal Tablet descended upon is also a special form of soul power.
However, in his previous life, Lu Changan had captured ghosts and spirits, and the souls of monks had also come into contact with the Nine Seal Tablet, and the Nine Seal Tablet didn't have much of a reaction. As for the Soul Dao items, Lu Changan's highest contact in his previous life reached the third order, and there was no abnormality.
"What's wrong, fellow Daoist Lu? Something wrong with Mister Wang's body?"
The slight fluctuation in Lu Changan's mind flickered and was keenly detected by Wang Feng.
"It's fine, the repair of Mr. Wang's dark root injury has progressed beyond Mister Lu's expectations. I think that you should have taken quite a few elixirs."
Lu Chang'an was wary and said with a smile.
He wondered if Mr. Wang had been hosted by the Hundred Lodging Soul Compass.
Logically speaking, the Hundred Lodging Soul Compulsion had suffered a loss at his place back then and died out strangely, so he should be wary of himself.
Furthermore, Mr. Wang is the Jindan seed of the Li Huo Palace, and is under the attention of the True Dan cultivators of the Li Huo Palace, and even the Yuan Ying True Monarchs, so it is very risky for the Hundred Sleeping Soul Compulsion to host him.
Lu Chang'an hoped that Mr. Wang would really be hosted by the Soul Compulsion and try to transfer it to host himself.
That way, the Nine Seal Tablet will be able to replenish its nutrients.
"Mister Wang met up with the evacuation team from the Leaving Fire Palace, and with the gift of the elders, there is naturally no shortage of elixirs."
Duke Wang turned his back to him and smiled faintly.
Two hours later.
Lu Chang'an's hand retracted from Duke Wang's back, completing this conditioning.
During the healing process, Lu Chang'an floated a thought, should he strike from behind and take down Duke Wang in one fell swoop to find the Nine Seal Tablet's sustenance.
In the end, Lu Chang'an gave up.
For one thing, Duke Wang had no grudge against him, it was a normal trading relationship.
Duke Wang's payment was higher and he also promised a favor, which was completely right for him.
Secondly, if Mr. Wang dares to leave the team alone, he must have something to rely on.
"Fellow Daoist Lu's healing and warming techniques are no less than those of a third-ranked pharmacist. I have a lot of injured people in the Li Fire Palace, and I'm planning to recuperate for a few years in the Jing Country, so would you like to come over and help them with their injuries."
Duke Wang turned around and proposed.
Lu Chang'an was about to refuse, when Mr. Wang flipped his hand and took out a strange lavender flower plant with seven petals.
"Seven Core Xuan Yue Flower!"
Lu Chang'an was slightly moved, it was the most scarce main medicine of the Crystal Condensation Pill.
Owning this flower is equivalent to owning the Crystal Condensation Pill.
Lu Chang'an had collected the materials for the Crystal Condensation Pill, and the main thing that was missing was the Seven Core Xuan Yue Flower.
Two years ago, when Mr. Wang requested to speed up the progress of his conditioning, Lu Chang'an had used the Crystal Condensation Pill or the Seven-core Xuan Yue Flower to test the waters.
I didn't realize that this time, he took out this item to hire him.
"As long as Fellow Daoist Lu is willing to come over and help for two years, this 'Seven Core Xuan Yue Flower' is the payment from the Leaving Fire Palace."
Duke Wang smiled and proposed.
"Forgive Mister Lu for not being able to accept it."
Lu Changan gulped and swallowed, seemingly refusing with difficulty.
He already possessed a complete chance of attaining dan, there was no need for him to take the risk.
"Fellow Daoist Lu doesn't need to worry about his own safety. The Golden Sun Sect has already stopped their pursuit of the Li Fire Palace, and the rest of the little people are not enough to worry about."
Mr. Wang persuaded.
Lu Chang'an still refused.
Duke Wang sighed and didn't force it.
Lu Chang'an got up, arched his hand, and left.
"This person's magic power is a bit odd, fighting skills are not outstanding, but there is a kind of imperceptible characteristics......"
Wang Gongzi sat in place, his eyes flickering, into a short period of thought.
......
Leaving the Immortal Seeking Mansion Inn.
Lu Chang'an found an ordinary inn in Cloud Smoke Immortal City and settled in.
At nightfall.
In the shadows of the guest room, a mysterious hooded man with gray and white robes emerged.
"How is the situation?" Lu Chang'an said without looking back.
"Mr. Lu, after Wang Feng left Immortal City, we lost our eyes and ears."
Xing Peng's face did not look good.
Through the meeting between Lu Changan and Wang Feng, Xing Peng focused on Wang Feng's movements and collected intelligence clues in his jurisdiction.
"Has this situation ever occurred before?"
"It has appeared twice, and was lost halfway through, until it came back into our view in the surroundings of Cloud Smoke Immortal City."
"Why don't we just take him down?" Lu Chang'an asked.
"For one thing, my Infernal Sect focuses on infiltrating and lurking, gathering intelligence before going to war, and seldom strikes directly to avoid exposing traces." "Furthermore, the danger rating of Wang Feng from above is higher, and if he dares to come out alone, he must have something to fall back on."
Infernal Sect's intelligence analysis, Lu Changan was more in favor of it.
He also suspected that Duke Wang had something to rely on.
However, during the previous close treatment, Evergreen's mana entered the other party's body and did not find any abnormality, which was more direct than the probing of divine sense.
From this, it is assumed that Mr. Wang's reliance may come from an external source.
When he left the Immortal Seeking Mansion, he seemed to feel a faint sense of prying.
In his second coming, although he was in a semi-dormant state to reduce the loss of soul power, Lu Chang'an's senses were far superior to those of the past.
If that hint of prying sensation did exist, it was at least a late stage JieDan great cultivator.
This had to make Lu Changan cautious.
"How many JieDan Great Cultivators are there in total that fled from the Departing Fire Palace?"
"Besides Elder Wang, there were two others who killed their way out of the siege, and one of them is still alive or dead. At that time, the direction they broke out from was not the Jing Country, but after a year's time, it's hard for anyone to guarantee it."
"By the way, did the Great Elder of the Departing Flame Palace, find any traces?"
Lu Changan's heart stirred.
"Involving a Yuan Ying True Lord is not confidential information that I have access to." Xing Peng shook his head and said, "But it is certain that Lord Li Huo was seriously injured, perhaps hiding in which corner to secretly recuperate."
Lu Changan nodded in favor.
If he were Lord Li Huo, he would definitely find a place to hide and take the time to recuperate from his injuries and get through his weakest stage.
This is the best and most stable plan.
Otherwise, a couple of JieDan cultivators would join forces and threaten his life.
As long as Master Li Huo is hiding in the shadows, no one would dare to take action against Elder Wang and the others.
......
Late at night, in the guest room.
Lu Chang'an closed his eyes and sensed, letting the soul shadow of his second life, increase his senses.
In this state, the Shadow of the Soul of the Second Life, consumes ten times faster.
The effect is certainly good.
If a late stage JieDan cultivator were to spy on him, it would be difficult to escape his senses.
Even an early stage YuanYing might be sensed by him if he rashly probes with his divine sense.
Because, this is a state of full alert and sensing.
As the night passed, Lu Chang'an didn't detect any unusual prying.
"Perhaps it was a coincidence that Duke Wang's secret protector, Divine Sense just routinely swept over me."
Lu Chang'an, out of prudence, went on full alert for the next two days, sensing.
As if fighting with the air, he didn't find anything suspicious.
Lu Chang'an's suspicions have subsided a bit.
A few days later in the evening.
An old man in a straw raincoat entered the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce's premises and was personally received by Realist Cold Jade.
In order to avoid suspicion, Lu Chang'an has agreed to meet with Mr. Wang over the past few years, and has not always come to see Mr. Cold Jade to discuss the Dao.
......
The Chamber of Commerce's clan land, sandalwood incense curls up in the elegant bedchamber.
"Big Brother Xiang wants to buy a third-order mid-grade or above talisman pen? Could it be that he knows a senior third rank talisman master?"
Cold Jade Real Person turned her back to Lu Chang'an, her face still red, and changed into a set of exquisite white palace dress, covering her bare jade-like back.
Lu Changan nodded and said, "Mister Xiang does know a third-order talisman master, and owes him a favor to repay him in this way."
He wasn't worried that Realist Cold Jade would associate him with Lu Chang'an.
Lu Chang'an is only in the late Foundation Establishment stage, so he can't handle a third-order medium-grade talisman pen.
The third rank talisman pen is a simplified magic treasure that requires a high level of mana and divine sense.
The third grade is a simplified magic weapon that requires an extremely high level of magic power and divine sense.
"If it's a third-order top-grade talisman pen, the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce can't do anything about it. Normal third-order mid-grade also have to take their chances......"
The Cold Jade Realist hesitated and said in a difficult manner.
Though the Jing country has developed trade and commerce, there are many craftsmen, but the real third-order talisman masters can be said to be few and far between.
Some of them are also lower third-order talisman masters with pseudo-dan cultivation.
With a high grade and low market demand, it is naturally very cold.
"If big brother Xiang doesn't mind waiting for a few months, the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce will do its best to help acquire it through channel contacts." Real Cold Jade murmured. "Don't mind."
Lu Changan's doubts about that day's cryptic snooping had not all disappeared, and staying at the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce for a while longer would be more secure.
As strong as a True Dan cultivator, he wouldn't dare to openly and unreasonably make a move in the Merchant League Immortal City.
Moreover, as the defeated party, the Li Huo Palace needs to keep a low profile and hibernate.
In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.
During this period, Lu Changan did not indulge in Taoism and used other identities to mingle at the bottom of Immortal City.
On this day, Mr. Cold Jade left a letter at the designated place to contact him.
Lu Chang'an returned to the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce.
"This third-order mid-grade talisman pen is severely depleted, it can at most draw a few dozen more third-order talismans."
The Cold Jade Realist opened a talisman box, presenting an old silver patterned talisman pen.
During the use of the talisman pen, there would inevitably be wear and tear. If it is to be repaired, the cost is very high and not much cheaper than rebuilding one.
Lu Chang'an's current third-order lower grade is also a second-hand product, and it can be used for drawing third-order middle grades, but higher grades will be a drag.
"It's also fine! I'll compensate some spirit stones to that talisman master's friend at that time."
Lu Changan's talisman embryo material was limited, a few dozen times was enough to squander.
Since it was a near-obsolete talisman pen, Lu Chang'an only spent more than 10,000 spirit stones to buy it.
......
Two days later.
Lu Chang'an left Cloud Smoke Immortal City and the road was smooth.
He flew to the vicinity of the Changhong River, and was only a hundred miles away from one of the tributary waters, Qing Sha Wan.
Hmmm?
Lu Chang'an looked at the dense forests along the coast and his heart snapped.
This dense forest was the place where the Ground Rock Rat had devoured Yu Qin and the Vice President of the Crescent Moon Chamber of Commerce.
It was not that an ambush was found.
Rather, this dense forest was just passed by dozens of breaths ago.
This kind of encounter is similar to a ghost hitting a wall.
"Illusion Formation!"
Lu Changan's gaze was sharp, fusing his second life and increasing his senses.
He vaguely captured a twisted ring-shaped film of light purple light, penetrating the void and enveloping the surrounding twenty miles, creating a bizarre space isolated from the outside world.
To be able to blind the senses of a True Dan cultivator, it is at least a third-order top-grade, and possibly even a fourth-order illusion formation.
"Turtle talisman master, really isn't simple, to be able to discover the location of an illusion formation."
In the dense forest, a handsome man dressed in a purple shirt with sharp angles floated out, flying into mid-air calmly.
"Wang Feng, what is your intention?"
Lu Changan's face changed, looking around, only the other person.
At this moment, he realized that the Wang Feng in front of him was not right.
In addition to the difference in temperament, its deep gaze locked, as if there were mountains pressing down on the body, the soul of the gods inexplicably throbbed.
Under the YuanYing True Monarch, no one could bring such pressure on Lu Chang'an in his current state.
"Of course I'm taking you away! A Foundation Establishment with a lifespan of five hundred years, this is the first time that poor Taoist has seen it."
Wang Feng's cold eyes flickered with purple flames.
"The fire lord!"
Lu Changan's heart shook, how could this Supreme Elder of the Departing Flame Palace possess or take over Wang Feng without properly recuperating from his injuries?
Could it be that Supreme Lord Li Huo's injuries were even more grievous than the outside world expected, so much so that he had reached the point where he had given up his physical body and his Yuan Ying had exited his orifices.
The other party didn't strike near the Immortal City, but chose to squat here to guard Lu Chang'an.
Suddenly.
Wang Feng, who was not far away, disappeared in a blur within the field of vision.
Boom!
In the next moment, Lu Chang'an only felt his sea of consciousness tremble, a dangerous burning sensation came from it, and his consciousness went black.
The shadow of the white-bearded old man's soul in his second life suddenly cut its light by a quarter.
Inside the phantom array, Lu Changan let out a pained grunt and fainted, falling headlong towards the raging river.
Swish!
A purple shadow transformed into the figure of Wang Feng, like a phantom, appeared ten feet behind Lu Changan.
The purple flame in his eyes converged.
"Wang Feng pointed his finger, and a thunderous sound rang out from his sleeve robe, and a braided rope treasure with flickering electric arcs flew out, like a nimble thunder snake, and wrapped itself around Lu Changan, who was unconscious and falling down. At this moment, "Wang Feng" magic power climbed to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, by the limitations of magic power, relying on the YuanYing to control the magic treasure, barely able to play a little power.
Even so, being entangled in this whip, the early stage of the True Dan will also have to be captured.
The whip of the thunder snake trailing electric arcs shattered the white man's shadow.
Lu Changan, who was in a coma, suddenly opened his eyes and his body swelled up, emitting a powerful qi and blood force.
Chop!
The beast-like body tore through the air, reversed his body and approached, holding a black and gold scimitar, directly chopping Wang Feng's face.
"Pseudo-dan level body refining, the poor Taoist had expected this."
A cold snort sounded in Lu Chang'an's mind.
The "Wang Feng" in his field of vision shifted to his left side.
Lu Chang'an's full strength, body refining and physical explosion of a knife to pounce, his body appeared a short period of stiffness.
Whew!
The agile Thunder Snake's whip took advantage of the situation and wrapped itself around Lu Changan's leg, there was no way to avoid it.
"Worthy of being a Yuan Ying Elder Monster!"
Lu Chang'an's chest lit up with the spiritual glow of a treasure talisman, and five rotating shields of crystal blue light shielded his tall figure.
Zi Boom!
The Thunder Serpent's Whip was knocked away by one of the rotating Crystal Blue Light Shields, and the latter shattered in response.
"Third-ranked mid-grade talisman?"
"Wang Feng" frowned slightly, unexpectedly.
A talisman of this grade would even appear on a late stage Foundation Establishment?
You should know that there are no real fourth-ranked talisman masters in the neighboring countries, and there are very few third-ranked top-grade talismans.
The higher a talisman master goes, the more demanding the material requirements for practicing become. How difficult would it be to hunt a great demon of the middle to late third rank, or even a transformed demon king?
At the critical moment, Lu Changan activated one of the strongest defensive talismans to avoid being captured.
Lu Chang'an also had four crystal blue light shields rotating around his body, each able to withstand a single strike from an early stage True Dan.
"Kai!"
Lu Chang'an's white robe fluttered as he slapped out two treasure talismans in succession.
Thunder Cloud Talisman!
A huge thundercloud of lightning roared between Lu Changan and Wang Feng, engulfing the latter in a matter of breath.
It was another third-rank middle-grade treasure talisman, which was made a few months ago through the state of the second body possession.
A thrilling thunderclap, accompanied by the roar of "Wang Feng", came from the thundercloud area.
"Fortunately, it's only the possessed Foundation stage, the difference in mana is far too great to utilize the true power of the magic treasures and aptitudes."
Lu Chang'an tapped out another Flying Escape Talisman in his hand.
All of a sudden, he was surrounded by a windy mass, dragging a dazzling green rainbow recluse towards the boundary of the illusion formation.
"Turtle Talisman Master! The fourth-order residual formation in this place is not something you can break through."
An icy shout came from "Wang Feng", his body was surrounded by ice clouds, and he used a third-order defense talisman to break out of the violent thundercloud area.
He used another third-order recluse talisman and chased after Lu Changan.
Lu Chang'an flew in the direction of the dense forest by the river, approaching the boundary of the Illusion Formation.
Luckily, with the possession of his second life, Lu Chang'an's divine sense was unprecedentedly powerful, and he could find the edge of the illusion formation, and even detect the weaker parts of it.
"Break!"
Lu Changan took out a stack of talismans in his hand, there were six or seven of them, all of which were third-order ban-breaking treasure talismans.
The first one alone caused the light at the edge of the illusion formation to tremble and the void illusion to distort.
After all, it is only a fourth-order residual formation that no one presides over, and the temporary arrangement driven by spirit stones alone is much worse in terms of defense.
"So many third-order ban-breaking talismans?"
Wang Feng, who was chasing after him, had his pupils shrink and his expression stagnate.
In the Immortal Cultivation Battlefield, third-order ban-breaking talismans are a rare strategic resource.
Lu Chang'an must have a great chance.
Pfft!
Three consecutive ban-breaking beams of light were seen to have made tiny cracks in the boundary of the illusionary formation.
"Wang Feng's face was as gloomy as water.
A purple Taoist's baby appeared on the surface of his body.
The Taoist YuanYing's hands strangled, a creepy fluctuation emerged, and a few drops of purple tadpole-like ancient light flames surrounded Wang Feng's body. Wang Feng foot recluse light, suddenly lit up the piercing purple light flame, speed doubled!
Wang Feng was about to approach Lu Chang'an by a few dozen feet.
Poof Boom!
A heavy stone wall rises up from beneath the ground in the dense forest.
"Not good--"
"Wang Feng's speed was too fast and his physical control was not enough, so he hit the stone wall spell cast by the True Dan demon head-on.
Rumble!
The stone wall burst, a large pile of rocks, "Wang Feng" body submerged, vaguely heard screams.
"Well done!"
Lu Chang'an's fifth ban-breaking talisman just managed to tear a foot-wide rift in the boundary of the illusion formation.
A beam of earthy yellow light flew into Lu Changan's Spirit Pet Pouch.
It passed through the crack in the illusion formation.
The light distorted and Lu Chang'an appeared over the fresh air waters.
"That collision, it was so fast, with Wang Feng's physical body, he definitely couldn't withstand it."
Lu Chang'an's heart was slightly settled.
Luckily, he had a large stock of treasure talismans in his hands, and after so many years of harboring them, they were all of the third-order quality, with more than sixty of them.
There are many cards in his hand, so he has a high margin for error, and can avoid such unknown accidents.
Lu Chang'an never expected that Lord Li Huo was so badly injured that he even gave up his flesh.
In fact, only Chu Tianfeng and himself were aware of the exact condition of Lord Li Huo's injuries, and no other forces had any accurate information.
......
"To be able to escape from the hands of a YuanYing Elder Monster is enough to be proud of oneself, even though it is a crippled YuanYing."
Lu Changan took a deep breath.
Whoosh!
With his feet on the third-stage recluse, Lu Chang'an flew towards the center hinterland of the Jing Kingdom instead of the Xia Clan in Qingsha Bay.
He thought that it would be difficult for Wang Feng to come after him.
In terms of cultivation and physical strength, Wang Feng was not as strong as him.
Lu Changan is not afraid of the number of recluse symbols.
The first time I saw him, I was in the middle of the night, and he was in the middle of the night, and he was in the middle of the night.
However, Lu Chang'an had only flown out a dozen miles when a pale and cold voice came from his mind:
"Lu Chang'an, poor Taoist said, you can't escape!"
A foot-long purple-robed Daoist elemental baby, as if it was instantaneous, left a shadow behind and entered the field of vision in a few breaths.
"YuanYing out of body!"
Lu Chang'an stopped his transportation and smiled bitterly.
The YuanYing is the form of a spirit body, and its speed is several times that of a YuanYing True Lord of the same rank.
Although a free-standing YuanYing is fragile and does not have much ability to fight, it does have a certain amount of spiritual means.
"A five hundred year lifespan foundation building flesh body, poor Taoist wants to see it."
With a flash of shadow, the purple-robed Daoist's YuanYing, instantly drilled into Lu Chang'an's body.
Lu Chang'an didn't resist at all.
He secretly sighed, if not helpless, did not want to gamble on that method.
After learning that Wang Feng was possessed by a Yuan Ying, he had some guesses about the Nine Seal Tablet's previous reaction.
Boom!
The shadow of the second life soul in Lu Chang'an's mind, its light dimmed by a large margin, was torn open by an overbearing rift.
The purple-robed Daoist's YuanYing, broke into the sea of consciousness, wanting to seize control of the body.
Buzz!
In the depths of the sea of consciousness, the ancient black mysterious monument, lit up gray and white light, rolled in the intrusion of the YuanYing.
"No--"
The firstborn of the fire master was unable to move, and was confined by some kind of rule power.
A scream of fear came from the soul level and ended abruptly.
Inside the fourth frame seal of the Nine Seal Tablet, the purple-robed Daoist's YuanYing was crushed into particles.
Following this, a pure and bright crystal white light was born, lighting up and spreading rapidly in the dead and gray area of the monument.
Not only that.
A purple Daoist figure, in the fourth blank frame seal, faintly outline slowly.
