Chapter 131 Unlucky Xiao Jincheng
A scarlet light quietly emerged among the rolling mountains thousands of miles away from Wangyue County.
A disheveled figure quickly flew out of the red halo. It was none other than Xiao Jincheng, the Holy Son of Paradise Palace, who had escaped by using a high-level Escape Talisman.
"Ha ha ha ha...."
"It's not that easy to kill me, Xiao Jincheng!"
Xiao Jincheng quickly landed on the ground, looked around and found himself in a secluded deep valley. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Given his character, he naturally wouldn't change his attitude because of temporary gains or losses.
It was just the death of a bunch of his men and the loss of a rare treasure that was about to be obtained. As long as he was still alive, Xiao Jincheng didn't think it was a big deal.
"He's an interesting fellow, even more sinister and vicious than a demon cultivator like me!"
"With such a powerful strength, I believe that ordinary people in the early stage of Tongxuan Realm may not be his opponent. Such terrifying power is pretending to be a cultivator of the first level of Daotai Realm."
Xiao Jincheng recalled what happened not long ago and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
He did not notice the black treasure hidden in Xu Yang's hair, and thought that the power that just burst out came from Xu Yang himself. This was also the main reason for his carelessness.
Who could have imagined that a powerful Master Tongxuan would insidiously reduce his own strength to the Daotai realm?
"This setback has served as a reminder to me that I should never underestimate anyone in the world. Even if they are just an ant that can be crushed to death with a single blow, I should never be careless until they are truly dead."
"But... the White Bone Locking Whip actually broke! That attack from True Lord Xu..."
Xiao Jincheng jumped out of the deep valley and flew away quickly, while his mind kept analyzing the first attack he suffered.
At that time, Xiao Jincheng did not sense the aura of any magic weapon, but to be able to cut off his life-saving magic weapon, the Bone Locking Whip, in one go, it had to be at least a top-grade magic weapon.
"A top-grade magic weapon!"
Xiao Jincheng murmured softly, with a hint of sigh between his eyebrows.
Top-grade magic weapons can significantly increase the combat power of cultivators in the late Tongxuan realm. Even the Paradise Palace, which dominates Huanhaizhou, may not be able to find a handful of them.
This level of magic weapon is difficult to possess even in the middle stage of Tongxuan Realm, and only those in the late stage of Tongxuan Realm are qualified.
"A blessing in disguise. My life-saving magic weapon was destroyed, and I lost a special treasure that could control ghosts, but I gained news of a top-grade magic weapon..."
"Once the mission of guiding the Demon Lord is completed, perhaps we can sell this information to the True Lord Qianjin to make up for the losses in Wangyue County this time."
Xiao Jincheng thought secretly that after he finished the task of guiding the demon kings in the four spiritual realms, he would return to the Paradise Palace and sell the information in his hands to the True Lord Qianjin.
Zhenjun Qianjin is a newly promoted powerful late-stage Tongxuan realm expert in the Paradise Palace, and his natal magic weapon is only a mid-grade magic weapon.
The difficulty of upgrading a magic weapon is no less than that of advancing a cultivator. The materials of Zhenjun Qianjin's natal magic weapon were very ordinary at the beginning, resulting in a relatively shallow foundation. If he cannot find the corresponding spiritual object, he may only be able to forcibly upgrade his natal magic weapon when he advances to the Yuanshen realm.
Boom! Boom!
The sky was covered with dark clouds, muffled thunder rumbled, and silver snake-like lightning appeared in the clouds from time to time.
Xiao Jincheng came to a thunderstorm canyon. He looked up at the sky, then his body turned into a ray of light and flew into the canyon wrapped in a majestic thunderstorm.
Not only are there occasional thunderbolts in the Thunderstorm Canyon, but there are also violent storms. As a result, the environment is filled with rugged rocks of varying heights and sizes. The entire area is bare without any vegetation, making it look like an extremely depressing place of death.
"Son."
"The altar and formation base are all completed!"
There was another world in the deadly thunderstorm canyon. As Xiao Jincheng entered a cave, a team of green-robed monks stationed inside hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on one knee to report.
The cave is shaped like a gourd with a narrow mouth and a large belly. The entrance is less than ten feet wide, but the space deep in the cave is thirty feet high.
There were a total of eight green-robed monks stationed there, most of whom were at the first or second level of the Daotai realm. With their level of cultivation, they couldn't even see that Xiao Jincheng was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
"Ah."
"You will serve as sentries outside the canyon. You are not allowed to come back without my order."
Xiao Jincheng had a blank expression on his face. After looking around a few times, he raised his hand to signal his men to leave.
"Yes."
"I'll wait for the order!"
The eight green-robed monks did not suspect anything and responded respectfully. Then they transformed into Taoist lights of different colors and flew out of the cave. In just a few minutes, they had completely left the Thunderstorm Canyon.
"call!"
Seeing this, Xiao Jincheng retracted the spreading spiritual power, let out a long sigh, raised his hand and patted the storage bag at his waist, and took out four palm-sized formation flags.
"With the Four Symbols Soul Locking Formation outside, it should be foolproof."
"puff!"
Xiao Jincheng and others only relaxed completely when the spiritual light emitted by the formation flags inserted in the four corners of the cave closed together. His originally normal face turned extremely pale, and his chest heaved as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He was extremely cautious. Even after escaping with the help of the escape talisman, he did not show any signs of weakness, for fear of encountering other cultivators along the way.
"You are really cautious, little guy... If I could be like you, maybe I wouldn't have to give up everything and force my way to this world."
A light and ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the empty cave, with a tone of sigh and regret.
"Who?!"
Xiao Jincheng couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling. He looked around and saw that the top of the cave was inlaid with many night-shining pearls that were worth a fortune in the mortal world. Therefore, the cave was both dry and bright, and all kinds of things could be seen at a glance.
In the huge cave, there is only a nine-meter-high black cylindrical altar built in the depths, and around it are sixteen ancient bronze lamps burning with faint green flames.
"Are you Lord Demon?"
Xiao Jincheng's gaze fell on the black altar. In a moment, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, which showed how fluctuating his mood was at the moment.
By analyzing the voice and words, he knew that the other party was probably the protagonist of his mission.
But he hadn't started the reception yet! The Boundary Breaking Awl was still in his storage bag, the Reception Altar hadn't been activated, and no interface channel had appeared.
What was going on? Even Xiao Jincheng, the Holy Son of Paradise Palace, found this unbelievable, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
"How dare your sect plot against me!"
"I originally wanted to beat you to a pulp, but what happened just now has changed my mind a little."
"Your death date will not be changed today, but I will grant you immortality, allowing you to be reincarnated."
The ethereal and clear sound appeared in the cave again. The sound was very beautiful, and it made people feel happy as if they were bathed in spring breeze. However, when Xiao Jincheng heard it, no matter how beautiful the sound was, his face changed drastically, and he turned around and ran away.
