“This… this… this!”
He Yan took several steps backward, startled by the appearance of the purple phantom.
If he hadn't clearly recognized the phantom's form, He Yan would have thought some ghostly apparitions had appeared within the Xuan Bird Guard's residence.
The purple phantom didn't open its mouth, but it emitted a clear and bright voice that entered He Yan's ears.
“Speak!”
Upon hearing the purple phantom speak, He Yan immediately realized that it was a creation of the Xuan Envoy.
“Greetings, Xuan Envoy!”
“Something has happened in Huangshan Town, Liusha County!”
“The Tiger Hound Demon King in the Tiger Prison Mountains is not dead. Yesterday, it severely injured Deputy Envoy Yu Hong and killed a Yellow-rank Xuan Bird Guard at the Great Perfection of the Blood Refining Realm!”
“I implore the Xuan Envoy to make a decision!”
Tiger Hound Demon King?
Demon beast realms are divided into Spirit-Wisdom Beasts, Great Spirit-Wisdom Demons, Demon Kings, and Heavenly Demons!
These correspond to the martial cultivation realms of humans.
Blood Refining Realm, Inner Energy Realm, Outer Strength Grandmaster, Divine Mansion True Person.
In other words, this Tiger Hound Demon King is a demon beast equivalent to a human Outer Strength Grandmaster.
At that moment, the purple phantom floating in mid-air began to transform into wisps of purple energy, gradually dissipating into the world.
Seeing this, He Yan was confused and could only stand anxiously in place, awaiting Lu Xuan's decision!
Inside the room, Lu Xuan raised his right hand, making a grasping motion towards a corner of the room.
There, the two-starred sacrificial artifact, the Wind Fire Blade, was placed.
The Wind Fire Blade, quietly leaning against the wall, suddenly began to tremble, flying towards Lu Xuan's right hand.
As Lu Xuan grasped the Wind Fire Blade, a faint purple light emanated from the blade, causing the surrounding space to distort.
The next moment, a crack appeared in the door, and the Wind Fire Blade detached from Lu Xuan's hand, passing through the opening with lightning speed.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it arrived before He Yan, quietly floating in mid-air.
“This envoy cannot leave for the time being and cannot personally go to Liusha County.”
“Deputy Envoy He, take this blade and go to Liusha County with all speed to assist Deputy Envoy Yu Hong!”
“If you encounter the Tiger Hound Demon King, take out this blade that I have given you.”
“It will deal with the Tiger Hound Demon King!”
These words echoed throughout the courtyard, as if coming from the vast expanse of the heavens, falling into He Yan's ears one by one.
As soon as the voice faded, Lu Xuan's door closed again, leaving He Yan standing there in a daze, unsure of what to do.
He Yan stared blankly at the bronze blade in front of him, which was quietly floating in the air.
The next moment, He Yan extended his hands without hesitation, carefully holding the bronze blade in his arms.
“Yes, Xuan Envoy, I will leave for Liusha County immediately.”
Although he didn't know why the Xuan Envoy had only given him a bronze blade, He Yan trusted the Xuan Envoy very much!
The Xuan Envoy must have his reasons for doing so!
After He Yan left, Lu Xuan's mind moved, and the system panel immediately appeared before his eyes.
Host: Lu Xuan
Realm: Divine Mansion True Person
Techniques: Heaven Burning Blade Art 2/9 (Can be deduced), Horizon Within Reach 0/9 (Can be deduced), Immortality 0/9 (Can be deduced)
Points: 26200
Please confirm whether to consume 20,000 system points to deduce the Heaven Burning Blade Art.
Please confirm whether to consume 20,000 system points to deduce Horizon Within Reach.
Please confirm whether to consume 8,000 system points to deduce Immortality!
“There are only 26,200 system points left, enough to deduce the Heaven Burning Blade Art one more time.”
The spiritual objects on the ground had already been completely refined by Lu Xuan.
Originally, Lu Xuan had 34,200 system points, but deducing the Heaven Burning Blade Art to the second level consumed 8,000 system points.
“Deducing the Heaven Burning Blade Art to the third level requires 20,000 points?”
Since deducing these martial techniques to this new realm, the required system points had multiplied many times.
After breaking through to the Divine Mansion Realm, all of Lu Xuan's Astral Essence surged into the depths of his mind.
Deep within Lu Xuan's mind, there was a mysterious purple vortex.
At the center of the purple vortex, a phantom of a miniature purple figure was sitting cross-legged.
And that purple figure was the Divine Sense possessed by those in the Divine Mansion Realm!
The Divine Mansion nurtures the Divine Sense, and the Divine Sense connects with the heavens, using this to drive the boundless power of the heavens.
Lu Xuan could now clearly see the true essence of this world.
Every place in the world was filled with endless spiritual energy.
“I didn't expect the Heaven Burning Blade Art to have such wonderful uses!”
Lu Xuan raised his right hand, and a deep purple flame slowly appeared on his palm.
The deep purple flame burned slowly in the void, and the surrounding space began to distort continuously.
This was not the state of air distortion from before, but a true influence on the ethereal space.
Until cracks of pitch-black space appeared around Lu Xuan's palm.
Lu Xuan moved his mind and put away the terrifying purple flame in his hand.
And this deep purple flame was not all of Lu Xuan's strength.
The true power of the Heaven Burning Blade Art could only be unleashed with a blade.
“Those eerie things, this master will see if you are truly immortal!”
Lu Xuan vaguely remembered what Li Yanran had said to him that time.
Divine Mansion True Persons might be able to completely eliminate them with the power of heaven and earth.
Making it impossible for these ghostly things to be resurrected in this world.
Then, Lu Xuan looked at the Heaven Burning Blade Art on the system panel and moved his mind.
Heaven Burning Blade Art, deduce!
As soon as this decision was made, 20,000 system points were instantly erased from the system panel.
Lu Xuan could not personally go to Liusha County because after breaking through to the Divine Mansion Realm, he still needed to stabilize the Divine Mansion in his mind.
The mysteries of the Divine Mansion were too obscure and difficult to understand, Lu Xuan would not rush to leave seclusion, everything was based on stability!
Moreover, the Heaven Burning Blade Art could still be deduced to the third level.
Therefore, Lu Xuan took the Wind Fire Blade and entrusted a wisp of Divine Sense power to it.
That wisp of Divine Sense power was enough to obliterate any creature below the Divine Mansion Realm.
Even the Tiger Hound Demon King would not be able to escape death under his wisp of Divine Sense.
Moreover, Lu Xuan had left a precaution.
Even if there was an accident, the Tiger Hound Demon King would definitely not be able to escape from Lu Xuan's hands.
That wisp of Divine Sense would secretly attach to the Tiger Hound Demon King, so that it would not notice anything unusual.
At that time, when Lu Xuan left seclusion, it would be time to hunt down the Tiger Hound Demon King.
Demon King?
It seemed that according to the Xuan Bird Guard's records, there seemed to be a mysterious Demon Core in the Demon King's body?
I wonder if this Demon Core can be refined into system points?
“Next, it depends on whether the Tiger Hound Demon King will appear in Liusha County.”
Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with bright purple light, and he murmured softly.
Deep in the Tiger Prison Mountains, outside a huge cave, the ground was covered with a large number of white bone remains.
Among these white bone remains, there were various different biological remains.
However, most of the white bone remains on the ground were actually human white bone remains.
And in the depths of the cave, there were dense, countless shaking black shadows.
Without a doubt, the black shadows appearing in the cave were all humans!
It could be seen that in front of these black shadows, there was a black shadow the size of a small mountain, entrenched on the ground.
And it was the Tiger Hound Demon King who was jointly hunted down by several Earth-rank Xuan Bird Guards many years ago.
The Tiger Hound Demon King had thick, sharp black fur all over its body, and a pair of huge eyes that glowed green, emitting a chilling ferocity.
Especially on the Tiger Hound Demon King's forehead, there were a large number of black stripes, occasionally flashing with a faint black light.
“Those damned Xuan Bird Guards, the demon essence I left on that Tiger Hound is comparable to a strike from a human martial arts grandmaster.”
“I didn't expect him to survive.”
“It's a pity that this Inner Energy Realm human martial artist is a very rare blood food for me.”
The Tiger Hound Demon King opened its bloody mouth and actually spoke like a human.
“Forget it, since I can't lure that Inner Energy Realm martial artist over, let him live for a few days.”
“I still need some blood food, and my strength can break through to that legendary realm.”
The Tiger Hound Demon King said here, and its huge eyes shot out a terrifying black light.
Back then, those damned humans took advantage of its carelessness and threw out a magical weapon that injured its powerful demon body.
Otherwise, those human martial artists would have been swallowed by it long ago.
The Tiger Hound Demon King's injuries began to throb faintly when it thought of those Xuan Bird Guards back then.
If it hadn't desperately given up half of its body at the last moment, carrying the demon core to fake its death and escape.
It might have died at the hands of those damned humans.
The Tiger Prison Mountains were hundreds of miles long, even those Xuan Bird Guards could not explore the entire Tiger Prison Mountains.
Therefore, the Tiger Hound Demon King took advantage of the terrain and hid in a secret place.
Until three years ago, a mysterious Demon King found it and helped it recover from its injuries.
And that mysterious Demon King actually told it a big secret.
In the White Path Prefecture, that Dragon Lord was actually sealed.
When that Dragon Lord was born, it would be when the Tiger Hound Demon King joined his command.
“Jie Jie Jie!”
“My strength has already surpassed my strength back then.”
“It's only a step away from the Heavenly Demon Realm!”
“Even if those Xuan Bird Guards come back, I'm still not afraid of them.”
“I have been wantonly killing for several days, why haven't I seen those damned Xuan Bird Guards?”
“Could it be that those damned Xuan Bird Guards are afraid to come and find me?”
The next second, the Tiger Hound Demon King seemed to sense something, and roared at the Tiger Hounds under its feet.
“You trash, don't you hurry up and roll to the foot of the mountain, another batch of human martial artists has come!”
During these few days, the Tiger Hound Demon King controlled those eaten martial artists.
Every human martial artist eaten by the Tiger Hound Demon King would become his Tiger Hound.
Then, the Tiger Hound Demon King sent out a large number of Tiger Hounds to spread the news of the golden Ganoderma around.
The golden Ganoderma had the powerful effect of being able to resurrect the dead and regenerate bones, and the martial arts realm would improve by leaps and bounds.
In this way, many human martial artists were really tricked into the Tiger Prison Mountains.
“I won't wait any longer, those Xuan Bird Guards must be afraid of me.”
The Tiger Hound Demon King slowly propped up its huge body, it planned to leave the Tiger Prison Mountains after eating some human martial artists below.
The humans of the entire Liusha County had already been targeted by the Tiger Hound Demon King.
As the Tiger Hound Demon King's strength became stronger, it completely forgot the agreement it had made with that mysterious Demon King.
The agreement between them was that after the Tiger Hound Demon King recovered from its injuries, it would take the opportunity to lie dormant in the Tiger Prison Mountains and not let the Xuan Bird Guards notice it.
And just one hour after the Tiger Hound Demon King left, two black shadows appeared at the entrance of the cave.
As these two black shadows continued to lengthen, their faces were completely exposed.
A figure wearing a pure white robe almost wrapped his whole body, only revealing his ugly face.
This was a one-eyed old man, his face was like a dry tree trunk, covered with wrinkles.
His left eye was deeply sunken in, the dry and dark eye socket was empty, exposed to the air.
The old man's fingers, exposed under the pure white robe, were skinny and dry, his nails were sharp, and faint blue veins could be seen bulging.
Beside this old man, was a person wearing a dark black cloak, the black cloak wrapped his whole body, making it impossible to see his true face.
“This idiot, a brainless waste.”
“As expected, it was as I guessed.”
“This brainless guy, as soon as he recovered from his injuries, he revealed his true nature.”
“This idiot is going crazy now, those Xuan Bird Guards will definitely be attracted to him.”
These voices sounded very sharp and harsh, and did not seem like a sound that humans could make at all.
The old man wearing the white robe, turned his head to look at the person beside him after hearing these words.
It could be seen that in the black shadow wrapped in the black cloak, a pair of yellow vertical pupils were revealed at the face, reflecting a faint yellow light.
Those were eyes exactly like those of a snake.
“Green King, if you want to know the whereabouts of the Dragon Lord, our Pure World White Lotus Sect has already calculated it.”
“However, before that, you have to go to Ming Prefecture with this old man.”
“There, there is the person your demon beast race hates the most, Li Family, Xuan Bird Guard Deputy Commander Li Chengxing.”
“This old man thinks, Green King, you should be very willing to help.”
“Hmph, you humans can't be trusted at all!”
"How would I know if you Pure World White Lotus Society people will go back on your word!"
The white-robed elder, seeing this, was not in a hurry to prove anything, but smiled slightly.
"Prince Qing, as things stand, throughout the entire Great Xia Dynasty, who else besides our Pure World White Lotus Society can calculate the whereabouts of the Dragon Lord?"
