The immortal saint's white clothes were complicated and flowing, and his cold white hair dragged to the ground. He now looked similar to Qing Xuzi in age. en8.

"I haven't recovered yet, but I'll be fine soon." He reached out and groped for something in Yun Qing's chest. He must have been the one who blocked Kun Wu just now.

Qing Xuzi frowned and asked: "Master... is it really okay for you to do this?"

"What's the problem?" the Immortal Saint asked gently. From Qing Xuzi's perspective, you can see his translucent fingertips stirring the heart and lungs, constantly stimulating the Heavenly Book that was fused with Huangquan.

"If we directly attack Huang Quan, who is not a saint, will Sheng Tianxiang just sit back and do nothing?" Qing Xuzi felt that Yun Qing's body was always cold, and he didn't know for a moment whether she was dead or not.

"You are not allowed to call the saint by his name." The immortal saint glanced at him and stopped Yun Qing's heartbeat little by little in his hand. "She is not dead yet, and what if she is dead? Sheng Tianxiang can still rush up to the passage. Will the Divine Pulse beat me up?"

Qing Xuzi suddenly felt a little reluctant to support Yun Qing. It felt like helping someone dissect a corpse: "Are you looking for the Book of Heaven?"

"Why don't I want the things that Gongsun Yanhua sent to my door?" The Immortal Saint slowly felt the passing of Yun Qing's life. "Just wait until Huang Quan is about to die. The Book of Heaven will move on its own. At that time, it can be retrieved completely. come out."

Qing Xuzi remained silent. If the fused Heavenly Book is taken out, the host Huangquan will most likely wither away and die.

The immortal saint suddenly laughed: "I found it."

Qingxuzi saw his hand slowly withdrawing, holding a thin piece of tortoise shell between his fingers. The armor was engraved with various patterns, and he didn't know what was written on it. It looked very inconspicuous, just like a turtle shell that had been picked up by a naughty boy and scribbled on. It looked like it had just been peeled off the back of a turtle, and the smell on it was quite old.

The body of the Immortal Saint solidified little by little, and his whole body glowed with vitality. The tortoise shell in his hand sank into his skin, turning into a small blue pattern on the back of his hand.

"Is this a heavenly book? Are you sure it's not a turtle shell?" Qing Xuzi saw that he had taken it out and put Yun Qing on the ground, then frowned and asked, "Then what is the picture on it?"

He still had an unreal feeling. This thing was too inconspicuous. Even if it was thrown in front of him, he might not pick it up.

"It's just a tortoise shell. What's on it is not a picture, but a history. The characters had just been created at that time." The immortal saint closed his eyes and didn't care about Yun Qing's life or death. He stroked the blue lines in his hand and suddenly sighed, "No wonder Gongsun Yanhua would rather resurrect with the flesh and blood of the demon clan than use this thing."

Qing Xuzi was a little puzzled. Seeing how his master had restored his physical body effortlessly, it seemed that the Book of Heaven was much easier to use than it seemed.

"What are the disadvantages?"

"The Shinto is immoral, and of course she would not dare to follow in its footsteps. 'Elegance* Wen* Yan*e*fa'" The Immortal Saint slowly calculated the secrets of heaven, with a calm look on his face, "I simply don't care about this."

Qingxuzi was startled: "Shinto?"

"It belongs to Emperor Qing, and it has been suppressed by demons." The immortal saint looked down at Yun Qing. There was a huge wound on her chest, and blood flowed all over the floor. "I don't know how to be She found it out, it seems that this guy really lives up to his reputation as a hell..."

Yun Qing is still alive, but in a state of dying. In the past, the Heavenly Book would heal the injury on its own at this time, but now the Heavenly Book is in the hands of the Immortal Saint. If this fatal injury is not dealt with, Yun Qing will definitely end up dead when his vitality dries up.

Qing Xuzi remembered a question Yun Qing asked before: "Are all other holy places filled with Shinto things?"

"Why do you ask so much?" The Immortal Saint waved his sleeves and said, "Get out of the way, I will patch up the screen wall."

"It...there's nothing in it?" Qing Xuzi looked behind him and turned around, looking at the bare rock wall behind him and asked.

"My body has been destroyed before. I only need to use the screen wall to project my soul. Why bother to open a cave inside?" The Immortal Saint sneered, raised his hand and pressed on the stone wall, and the tiny fragments of the screen wall came together again. "It was just a cover."

"Then now..." Qing Xuzi was about to ask the Immortal Saint how to deal with Huang Quan now, but was interrupted the next moment by Xie Yao who rushed up to the stone platform.

"The demon army has retreated!" Xie Yao came slowly and said calmly to Qing Xuzi and the Immortal Saint, "I just chased for a while, and was later destroyed by Cang Wule, Xiao Wugui, Huatian Lust Demon Sect, and Gong Zhen worked together to block it, and now the demon army that was originally preparing to enter Beichuan has all withdrawn to Wuwu Demon Realm."

He had just experienced a tough battle, but his black and white Tai Chi robe was still in perfect order, and the dust in his hand was shining brightly.

"No wonder you came so late..." Qing Xuzi nodded thoughtfully. No matter how bad Xie Yao's escape skills were, he would not be so slow. It seemed that he had just run to chase the demon army.

Xie Yao also saw the blood all over the ground and the endangered Yun Qing. He cleaned up the mess on the ground with a wave of his whisk, then frowned and asked, "Why don't you lead the demon army deeper before taking action?"

"Ask your senior brother." A faint light shone in the hands of the Immortal Saint, and the Qingdi lines on the back of his hands seemed to come alive. The reason why he mentioned taking action was because Qing Xuzi was cornered by Yun Qing, and the two of them almost died together.

Qing Xuzi also understood what Xie Yao meant when he heard this. It seems that the Immortal Saint has a plan to seize the Book of Heaven, but Huang Quan did not take action during the ten years he was in Beihai. He was creating an illusion for the Demonic Saint.

All saints know that Taiqing destroyed his body, and most saints think that he is in a weak state, but "weakness" is always relative. In the judgment of the Demonic Saint, the Demonic Saint is weak, so he will not rashly touch the Heavenly Book, the relic of the Qing Emperor. And similarly, if Taiqing had not attacked the Heavenly Book during the ten years he was tortured in Huangquan, he would probably be similar to the demon saint. Later, Taiqing decided to hold the Immortal Ascension Conference and once again confirmed that the Demonic Saint was in a weak state, so the Demonic Way decided to take the opportunity to march into Beichuan.

To put it bluntly, the ten-year sentence is just a test, and Yun Qing's expedition to clear the way is just a confirmation.

Now that the results of the test have come out and the demonic army has retreated unscathed, Sheng Tianxiang will most likely give up on Huangquan.

The Immortal Saint closed the screen wall, then stretched out his hand to stick to the screen wall, and the mighty divine power finally slowly gathered into the sky-reaching divine veins. His expression was indifferent, and it took almost no effort to suppress the aura of Li Gong again. At this moment, he was arranging some formation on the screen wall. The green lines spread from the back of his hand to the screen wall, as if he was using the Qing Emperor's divine power to suppress the Qing Emperor's divine power.

Qing Xuzi felt that even the inability to suppress the Tongtian Divine Veins was Tai Qing's plan to show off to the enemy. Now that the Demonic Saint has discovered that Taiqing is luring the enemy, there is no need for him to show weakness and directly suppress the Tongtian Divine Veins.

Just like Qing Xuzi said before, people like Sheng Tianxiang will not try to save Yun Qing again and again just because she is Huang Quan. For him, Huang Quan is just a slightly more important chess piece. This time, she can be used to expose the true situation of the Immortal Saint and his interest relationship with the Demonic Saint, which can be regarded as rewarding.

"The demonic army has retreated. Where are the other orthodoxy?" Qing Xuzi saw that it might take some time for the immortal saints to set up their formation, so he simply sat cross-legged and meditated.

Xie Yao thought for a while: "There are no saints in Moling and Mianfeng Gallery, and there are no worries about chickens and dogs. I have no time to worry about myself in the Temple of Heaven, and Fengdu City has already broken through and escaped. This time I ran away from the devil... I think our sect has suffered a lot."

Qingxuzi closed his eyes and said calmly: "Huang Quan's body is in the Dao system, why don't you say that the Demon Dao has suffered a great loss?"

"It's not like he's completely dead..." Xie Yao glanced at Yun Qing on the ground again, his eyes calm as if he were looking at a dead thing, "For those of us who are destined by destiny, anything that fails to kill us will eventually. Be the force by which we rise.”

Qing Xuzi opened his eyes, his expression was cold, and he struck Yun Qing with a clear light from his backhand.

"That's enough." The immortal saint shouted lowly, but he didn't look back. The light dissipated in the air before touching Yun Qing.

"What are you doing?" Xie Yao frowned and looked at Qing Xuzi.

Qing Xuzi said matter-of-factly: "Aren't you suggesting that I kill her?"

"..." Xie Yao carefully thought about what he said and replied seriously, "I didn't."

"You do." Qing Xuzi retorted calmly.

Xie Yao wanted to say more, but was interrupted unbearably by the Immortal Saint: "Are you childish? Qing Xuzi, I can do something to Huang Quan because Sheng Tianxiang can't rush to the Tongtian Divine Vein to kill me, so you can Not necessarily. This time I broke the old rule, you have to think about the severity. If you continue to kill like this, you should be killed by the robbery before the Immortal Ascension Conference."

"The Immortal Ascension Conference is still going to be held?" Qingxuzi didn't seem to listen to his words. He was still thinking that the Immortal Ascension Conference was just a cover to lure the demon army into Beichuan.

The Immortal Saint stopped what he was doing, and a thunderbolt hit him: "Why don't you do it? Go and get ready! And... Dong Xuanzi, you send invitations to all the Taoists, including Donghai Loose Cultivators."

Xie Yao bowed slightly and saluted: "Where is the Shinto side?"

"Invite them over." The Immortal Saint said calmly, "It's not like they are shameless."

"I obey Master's instructions." His white hair flew, and in an instant he turned into the breeze and disappeared into the air.

"Why don't you move?" The Immortal Saint frowned and looked at Qing Xuzi, "Get out of here quickly."

Qing Xuzi stood up slowly and said, "What should I do about Huang Quan?"

"roll."

Seeing that his tone was unkind, Qing Xuzi said no more and transformed into the breeze and disappeared on the stone platform.

"The army of demons is approaching and it sounds like a nine-ring cry. Where will humanity go? Please let the saint know clearly."

Le Shu's expression was solemn. She knelt under the altar of Lu Tian. Her white clothes were spotless and her spine was as straight as bamboo.

"Get rid of Beichuan Moling first..." The light of the holy ring on the Lutian Holy Altar shines on the earth, and countless people place their hopes in this untouchable light.

A familiar and peaceful voice passed into her soul, but Le Shu had never felt such great fear in her heart at that moment.

"The barbarians from the southwest are approaching the city, but the master is busy killing the fellow tribesmen. Forgive Leshu to say it bluntly, this is not the behavior of a saint." Leshu said every word with sadness. She had been looking up to that man under the Lutian altar for decades, but since then Never understood him.

The Saint of Humanity had white hair that reached the ground, and his eyes were empty. This was the first time he was directly interrupted by Le Shu since he accepted her as his disciple, but he did not get angry.

"Qingchuan Shanfu cannot break through the western defense line controlled by Zhong Sui for a while..."

Le Shu's face turned pale. She raised her head and said loudly: "It's not a question of whether to make a breakthrough or not!"

"What's wrong?" The Saint of Humanity was silent for a while. Le Shu seemed to be particularly excited today. She would never talk to her master like this on weekdays.

"Can we still trust you?" Le Shu clenched his hands, his nails dug deeply into his palms, and a trace of blood slid down his hands, "A saint of humanity? Or a lackey of immortality?"

She closed her eyes, holding back tears and the grief of witnessing the death of her compatriots for a long time. As soon as these words came out of her mouth, she could almost imagine the fate of being severely punished by her master. But the saint of humanity did not punish her. The gentle light shone on her body, and the wound healed in an instant. The pure and bright holy power spread from the Lutian altar. Le Shu opened her eyes with some confusion. The light on the Lutian Holy Altar was so dazzling that she couldn't see the saint's condition clearly. She never understood what the saint was thinking.

The Saint of Humanity sighed slightly, and his white hair was dyed a light golden color, but it could not dispel the coldness on his body: "Get up... I don't need your trust."

"As long as I know it in my own mind."
