I save spiritual roots for the next life.

Chapter 256 The Royal Bloodline

The three people immediately flew to the body of Jin Jiao, hoping to protect his soul.

However, the high-grade spiritual weapon held by the shadow is a soul-killing blade. After killing the opponent, the soul is also destroyed. How can there be any trace of soul left?
"Bad guy! You're going to die!" The leader was furious at the end of the pill formation. A fire dragon appeared in front of him and struck at Master Mu and Master Huangshi without any hesitation.

The moment the other party's voice sounded, Li Jizhou had already controlled the puppet to hold a teleportation talisman.

No more hesitation now, get ready to inspire now.

When Mu Zhenren saw the menacing fire dragon coming, his hands had already turned as if they were flying, and nine terrifying waves surged instantly.

Water can overcome fire, but when fire is strong, water can dry it up.

When the fire spells are too much stronger than the water spells, not only are they unable to restrain them, they may even become a source of fuel.

Before the fire dragon arrived, the nine-layer giant wave had already begun to rise into majestic white mist. The white mist entered the fire, causing the fire to surge by three points.

Seeing that the fire dragon was about to devour it.

"Huang Zhenren, help!" Mu Zhenren exclaimed.

"Stop!" At this critical moment, a loud shout came.

Before he saw anyone coming, a familiar Jinghong gun rushed towards him with great force.

"Boom~" The Jinghong Gun and the Fire Dragon collided together, causing a loud noise.

The Jinghong Spear was immediately knocked back, and the Fire Dragon was also blocked from attacking.

Mu Zhenren narrowly escaped death.

Li Jizhou looked at the person coming and quietly retracted the teleportation talisman that was about to be activated in his hand.

"Master Shui Mo, do you want to kill members of Hong Tian's team?" Nie Jinghong held a spear and looked directly at the leader of the opponent.

Behind him, the Gu Master approached cautiously, and black beetles gathered around him.

"Jinghong!" Master Shui Mo looked at Nie Jinghong in surprise.

"Are they members of Hong Tian's team?" Then he looked at Zhenren Mu and Zhenren Huang Shi in even greater disbelief.

At this moment, Nie Jinghong also saw the body of Master Jin Jiao on one side. He couldn't help but hesitated. Then he looked at Master Huang Shi and looked around for the figure of the shadow puppet.

"You killed Master Jin Jiao?" Nie Jinghong's face darkened and he looked at Master Mu.

Huangshi Zhenren has only been in the team for a short time and does not know the secrets of Hongtian Team and Guzhu City Lord's Mansion, but Mu Zhenren must know.

Zhenren Mu hurriedly explained: "He was so unscrupulous that he killed us first!"

"You didn't identify yourself?" Nie Jinghong narrowed his eyes.

"We haven't had time to identify ourselves yet." Mu Zhenren said without thinking.

"Hmph, that's nonsense. I just heard Jin Jiao scolding him first, but after he actually started taking action and already counting his breaths, how could it be that he didn't have time to reveal his identity?" Master Shui Mo scolded angrily.

"Jinghong, Jin Jiao was the last disciple that your father accepted. Now he died tragically on the spot. I have to give him a result. Don't stop me!" Master Shui Mo then looked at Nie Jinghong.

"He is not my father!" Nie Jinghong yelled flatly.

Li Jizhou hesitated slightly when he heard this. Nie Jinghong was actually the son of Nie Qingyuan, the lord of Lone Bamboo City?

"Master Mu, what's going on?" Nie Jinghong then ignored Master Shui Mo and looked at Master Mu.

Master Mu turned to look at Master Huangshi, who had already taken a few steps back, and took a deep breath: "Now that the matter has come to this, Master Nie will not violate the blood oath he swore when he joined the team, right?"

When joining the team, all team members have a blood oath that if they encounter foreign enemies during treasure hunting, they must unite to fight against the enemy.

Li Jizhou frowned slightly, looking at Zhenren Mu's back as his thoughts surged.

It seems that Mu Zhenren’s purpose is not just for the opportunity in the medicine hospital.
Nie Jinghong's brief exchange with the other party had already revealed a lot of information.

"I'm afraid this woman is deliberately provoking a conflict between Hong Tian's team and Lone Bamboo City!"

And Huang Shizhen was treated as a pawn by her.

Nie Jinghong was silent for a moment, then decisively walked to Master Mu, turned to face Master Shui Mo: "No matter what, I can't watch you attack our Hong Tian team!"

Master Shui Mo was instantly furious: "Jinghong, you are confused!"

"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense and fight if you want!" Nie Jinghong ignored him.

The Gu Master also slowly came to Mu Zhenren's side, with Gu insects flying all over his body.

Li Jizhou calmly took two steps back. Nie Jinghong and the others had their inner demons and blood oaths. Faced with this situation, they knew there was a problem but had no choice but to stand up. Otherwise, their inner demons would arise and it would be difficult to make any further progress.

But Li Jizhou didn't care, he swore the oath based on Huangshi's vitality, blood and spirit.

And at this moment, he has controlled the shadow to sneak into the medicine garden array quietly, looking for the elixir.

The entire formation was also frozen, but it was much weaker than the outside world.

It's just that all the elixirs are sealed in ice crystals and cannot be detected by spiritual consciousness, but it is difficult to quickly identify them.

"Pfft~" As the shadow shattered an ice crystal in front of him, the elixir inside was revealed.

A third-order careless grass seedling shakes off and is covered with ice crystals.

Li Jizhou felt a little happy. The imperial garden was indeed extraordinary. The first plant was such a great medicine.

"簌~" However, the joy did not last long, but he saw that after the ice was lifted, the Wuxin grass began to grow rapidly, and the power of the years that had been blocked for thousands of years was added to it.

In just ten breaths and thousands of years, Wuxincao has grown from a seedling into a thousand-year-old medicine that can become a main ingredient in the Pregnant Baby Pill.

However, the next moment, the careless grass instantly withered, then withered, and finally withered, decayed, and turned into mud.

"..." Li Jizhou was slightly distracted after witnessing the whole process.

Under the power of time, even a thousand-year-old elixir will eventually turn into ashes.

Spiritual medicines also have longevity. The first level, the second level, is a hundred years and a thousand years is the limit, and the third level is a thousand years.

Those who can truly survive ten thousand years must have at least a fourth-level elixir or some other special attribute elixir.

For example, life-extending fruits absorb the power of time.

Li Jizhou looked around again through the shadow.

The medicine garden is very large, but the medicinal materials that are frozen are very sparse, and a large area is obviously missing in the depths of the medicine garden.

There are also signs of damage around the third-level elixir.

Judging from its mark, I am afraid it was looted when the Yue Worshiping Dynasty fell.

It could also be that someone is fishing in troubled waters.

The ghostly figure flashed inside again and came to a half-human tall ice crystal.

Frozen it again and shattered it.

Li Jizhou, who was sitting firmly in Lone Bamboo City, raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out to be a seven-hole lotus.

And the year is at least 800 years old!
With Li Jizhou's current alchemy skills, these high-quality crystal-condensing elixirs are easily available!

In the Yan Kingdom, Li Jizhou waited for many years in order to find a high-quality seven-orificed lotus plant that would guarantee high-quality crystal condensation pills.
I finally managed to win a bid for a 500-year-old seven-aperture lotus, and it was finally put on display by Master Xue Dan.

And this one here is actually only on the periphery of the medicine garden.

"Poof~" But it was a pity that the moment the ice crystal shattered, the Seven-Aperture Lotus turned into powder and dissipated in the soil.

"What a pity, what a pity!" Li Jizhou sighed slightly.

"Boom~" At this moment, a loud noise came from the depths of the medicine garden.

Immediately afterwards, a majestic aura of mana spread out.

"How dare you, little thief, dare to break into the Imperial Medicine Garden without permission?" A loud shout rang out.

Li Jizhou immediately controlled the shadow and leaned over a tall ice-sealed elixir, hiding all aura.

At the same time, Master Shui Mo stared at Nie Jinghong for a long time, and finally sighed deeply: "It's up to you to explain this matter to the city lord in person!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from the medicine garden.

"Frozen Ancients? No, Uncle An and the others are in danger!" Master Shui Mo suddenly changed his color when he heard the noise in the medicine garden.

The three of them immediately turned around and flew towards the cracks in the magic circle.

Watching the three of them enter the medicine garden, Nie Jinghong did not rush into the medicine garden, but turned to look at Zhenren Mu.

"Should you give me an explanation?"

Master Mu's expression changed slightly, he was silent for a moment and said: "Master Nie, since you entered this place with the disciples from Guzhu City today, it is destined that only one of them can leave alive!"

Nie Jinghong frowned slightly: "Is it because this is the ruins of the Moon Worshiping Dynasty?"

Master Mu knew that he could not hide it from Nie Jinghong, so he said directly: "Yes, because there are quasi-immortal weapons and immortal scriptures here, and some of the disciples in Guzhu City can get them, and if this news spreads, let alone Guzhu City , even no force in the entire swamp can protect it, and it will eventually lead to the destruction of the sect!"

"..." After Master Mu finished speaking, Nie Jinghong, Master Huang Shi, and the Gu Master all looked at her suddenly.

Li Jizhou didn't know much about the Moon Worshiping Dynasty, and he didn't know much about the disciples in Guzhu City, so he was completely confused about it.

However, if this is the case, it might be the best choice not to report your name and identity.

However, Li Jizhou no longer trusted Mu Zhenren and even questioned what she said.

"How do you know that the disciples in Lone Bamboo City have the blood of the Moon Worshiping Dynasty?" Nie Jinghong couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.

If it is true as Zhenren Mu said, facing the risk of leaking the quasi-immortal weapon, everyone else here may have to die!

"What I can confirm is that An Ruoxi, the seventh disciple of Zhenjun Guzhu, Huaiyu, is of the royal bloodline of the Moon Worshiping Dynasty!" Mu Zhenren affirmed.

"Master Huaiyu!" Upon hearing this, the Gu Master's expression changed drastically.

An Ruoxi is the most talented among all the disciples of True Monarch Guzhu. She is likely to have surpassed the Five Elements innate spiritual roots, and she had already built the golden elixir a hundred years ago.

There are even rumors that it touches immortality and activates some incredible golden elixir.

Nascent Soul is just a matter of course.

I'm afraid it's not far away now.

Nie Jinghong's face instantly darkened.

An Ruoxi is his biological father's junior sister, but her strength and status are much higher than his biological father Nie Qingyuan.

"How can you be sure?"

Mu Zhenren took a deep breath and put his hand on his face.

A human skin mask fell.

Li Jizhou's eyes instantly shrank.

A formless mask?

But there is something different. After putting on Zhenren Mu's mask, although his true appearance cannot be detected, his disguise can be clearly sensed.

Under the mask, there was a cross scar on the delicate cheek.

The scars were deep enough to show the bones, and there was death energy surrounding them, so it was obviously caused by some kind of secret technique.

"Because I used to be An Ruoxi's maid! This face was scratched by it." Zhenren Mu said frankly.

Seeing his appearance and hearing his words, Nie Jinghong and the Gu Master both frowned.

Decades ago, Lone Bamboo City issued a wanted order.

The wanted person is one with a cross scar on his face.

It is also said that it was injured by An Ruoxi, the real person of Huaiyu, with the ice soul knife, and the scars can never be recovered.

In this way, the credibility of what Master Mu said is very high! ——
At the same time, in the medicine garden, Li Jizhou looked at the fighting scene in the distance through the shadow's perspective, and his heart tightened slightly.

When the roar just started, he lurked quietly.

From a distance, I saw a man's tall ice crystal shattering.

Different from the frozen people outside, this frozen person did not turn into powder with the influx of time after being unsealed.

And this person is still alive.

When the power of time was applied to his body, it was actually blocked by a strange aura in his body, and the entry speed was much slower.

Then he shook off the ice crystals all over his body and stood majestically in front of the two Lone Bamboo City gatekeepers.

At this moment, the two sides have been back and forth for several rounds.

"Anyone who dares to trespass into the Medicine Garden of the Moon Worshiping Dynasty will be killed without mercy!" The Frozen Man roared again, and countless ice cones took shape, overwhelmingly shooting towards the two monks on the other side.

"Senior, wait a minute! We are not thieves. The Moon Worshiping Dynasty has been destroyed for thousands of years, and this place has been frozen for thousands of years. Everything has turned into smoke."

The two monks in Lone Bamboo City, both female cultivators, fought and retreated.

The golden elixir peak mana burst out by one of the female cultivators made Li Jizhou afraid to control the shadow and he was not sure whether he could be sensed by it.

And the weapon in his hand, which was completely transparent and radiated with cold light, made even Ying Ying feel a chill.

"Master, what is going on? Why are people who were frozen thousands of years ago still alive now?" Another female cultivator, who is in the middle stage of pill formation, looks very embarrassed at the moment, and has been hiding behind the golden elixir cultivator.

"This should be the guard of this medicine garden. When the Moon Worshiping Dynasty perished, he may have been frozen to this day before he understood what happened." The golden elixir female cultivator replied while dodging.

"Then why didn't he return to dust quickly like those elixirs or the people outside?"

"Because he should have practiced the holy method given by the Queen - Guanghan Jue. And the method of freezing here is Guanghan Jue, so the power of time cannot erode quickly."

"Then what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, he is just a guardian of the medicine garden. The Guanghan Jue that he can practice must be only a simplified version. It is impossible to completely withstand the power of the real Guanghan Jue's ice-free passage. Judging from the aging speed of his body, at most he can only Can last for three hours.

Although it is only in the late stage of pill formation, the blessing of Guanghan Jue has innate advantages here. We don't have to confront it head-on and wait for it to be eroded by the power of time! "Jindan female cultivator explained.

As expected, the master and the apprentice did not confront each other head-on, but only defended and dodged.

"Uncle An, we..." At this moment, the three masters of Shui Mo rushed in in a hurry.

Seeing An Ruoxi and the other two being chased by the frozen guards, they immediately attacked and killed them.

However, the Frozen Guard, who clearly only had the advanced level of ordinary pill formation, was unscathed when facing Master Shui Mo's full blow.

An ice wall instantly suppressed the raging fire dragon.

"Shui Mo, don't fight hard. He practices Guanghan Jue and is invincible in this frozen land. He just needs to run out of time!" An Ruoxi reminded.

"Yes, Master An!" The three masters of Shui Mo let out a long sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Bang~" Just when the three people in Shui Mo were about to do what An Ruoxi said, one of them actually shattered another ice crystal next to him under the influence of his magic power.

After the ice crystal shattered, an ancient man similar to the frozen guard in front of him appeared inside it again.

Li Jizhou watched all this silently, summarizing the messages received outside and inside, and couldn't help but frown secretly.

Perhaps what Master Mu said is true.

Otherwise, how could An Ruoxi know the situation of the Frozen Guards so well?

If this is true, he is probably determined to win Guanghan Jue and Guanghan Seal.

The advent of quasi-immortal weapons and immortal scriptures will inevitably lead to a bloody storm.

Before you completely control the quasi-immortal weapon, before you have the strength to protect the quasi-immortal weapon,
Regardless of the consideration, for the person who obtains this object, killing everyone who enters this place is the safest method.

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!
