ah?The palace fighting system can also cultivate immortality

Chapter 211 Defense Magic Weapon
The sun sank little by little.

The closer it got to dusk, the brighter the setting sun became, outlining the silhouette of the swordsman sitting on Chixiao with a deeper outline of light and shadow. There was only a corpse on the ground, but the air was filled with a bloody smell after a storm had stopped - the Su family had taken great pains to decorate the yard, and there were always melodious birds living in the trees all year round, but now they all fell silent at the same time, and the atmosphere was frozen in deathly silence.

Chen Yue sat next to her awkwardly.

Du Xinghe himself was in a good mood.

She raised her eyes and met Ji Wuhuo's gaze, who had hurried over. She asked in surprise, "Why did you come here in person?"

Senior Sister Wen told her that this was not a big deal. Even if it was Ji Wuhuo, she could just send someone to pick up Chen Yue. There was no need for Young Master Ji to come in person.

He paused, his incredibly beautiful face was stunned for a moment, and then he said frankly:
"Because I wanted to see you sooner."

Ji Wuhuo did not deliberately deploy a soundproof barrier, and Du Xinghe did not cast a barrier. The two were in the Su Mansion, and the Su family members could easily activate the image-retaining formation in the courtyard and see the replay of this scene. They were shocked to find that the young master of the Ji family, who was always cold and aloof, would actually say such words.

If you express your passionate emotions too much, you will appear to be glib.

But Ji Wuhuo thought so from the bottom of his heart. He didn't say this to please anyone, and he had never said the same thing to anyone else.

"I don't trust you to let others handle your affairs."

When facing Du Xinghe, he always speaks his mind.

"Is this Miss Chen who was harmed by the Su family? I have prepared a carriage and people outside to make sure Miss Chen and your brother are properly treated."

He turned to look at Chen Yue, his tone still respectful, just with a hint of politeness and distance.

In Chen Yue's eyes, Du Xinghe was naturally an immortal, but the young man who came to pick her up was a perfect match for the mortals in the Lower Five Districts' imagination of an immortal master. She did not dare to disobey him in the slightest and first thanked the immortal sister again and again before retreating out of the door in panic.

Ji Wuhuo also said to Du Xinghe: "I have already negotiated with the people of the Wen family when I came here. Miss Chen will not be in danger anymore."

"sorry to bother you."

Du Xinghe said.

She always trusts him to do things.

Her encounter with the Chen sisters was just a chance acquaintance. She had already repaid the favor of lending them an umbrella to shelter from the rain, and had settled the karma between the two of them. She would not interfere with other people's lives anymore.

only……

"I want to teach one more lesson."

"Then you want to take Miss Chen's maid Su Mingyou by force? No problem, you don't need to do it yourself,"

Ji Wuhuo stood in the Su Mansion and arranged the life and death of one of the Su family members with her: "He covets beauty and wants to harm decent women, so let him never have this idea again... Spare his life and let him regret it for the rest of his life."

Crossing the galaxy to seek revenge, rarely leaving any trace.

It’s not that she was afraid of revenge, but it would be more straightforward to kill, so her revenge was always swift and decisive.

She just frowned, and he said:

"A man like him doesn't deserve to die by your sword."

Ji Wuhuo spoke seriously, yet there was a hint of childish jealousy in his words.

She seemed to feel that it was an honor to be wounded by her sword.

Du Xinghe smiled: "Then I'll listen to you, let's go."

"Where?"

"Didn't you prepare the carriage? I have no place to stay in the imperial capital, so of course I'm going back to your house."

Therefore, the Su family members who were secretly observing the Shadow Array discovered that the young master Ji, who was always arrogant and had a cold face all year round, would one day smile so worthlessly.

……

Today is destined to be a peaceful day in the imperial capital.

First, Emperor Xuan personally withdrew the bounty on Du Xinghe and instead honored her as the Xinghe Fairy.

Then, someone came to the Su family and killed them. This was a great shame, but the Su family did not openly pursue the matter. Instead, they kept silent about it. When anyone mentioned it, they evaded the question and evaded the question. But it was not difficult to find out that the person who came and left openly was the Xinghe Fairy who came out of the palace and lived in the Ji Mansion.

Not only did the Su family lose all their face and reputation, it was said that they could not even save a domineering young man from a side branch named Su Mingyou.

In this regard, the Su family kept silent and denied it when asked.

However, Su Mingyou, who loved to pursue women, never appeared in public social occasions again, as if he had disappeared in the imperial capital overnight.

Over the past six months, the Su family has been at odds with the Ji family. The former is not as powerful as the latter, but they keep doing bad and disgusting things in subtle ways. The Ji family has always attached great importance to decency, so they maintain peace on the surface, at least in front of Emperor Xuan. So they can only let the Su family do evil.

"But, here comes this Galaxy Fairy to break the impasse!"

"This Fairy Xinghe has a great background. After she left the Nine Yang Sect and went down the mountain, she has been practicing alone. She also entered the Miaohuo Sect and learned the skills of alchemy. She is proficient in both sword and alchemy. She easily won the first place in the Alchemy Conference and the Immortal Alliance Competition. It is said that the bounty issued by the Emperor Xuan was actually an edict to seek talents. It is said that she has reached the peak of the Golden Core stage at a very young age!"

"Peak of the Golden Core?"

In the Imperial Capital's No. 1 Restaurant, even the waiter was a cultivator at the first level of the Jindan stage. He smiled as he served the dishes: "The Su family's Jiying who died in her hands was at the peak of the Jindan stage."

The originally lively banquet suddenly became quiet.

The woman in white is a Jiying, a gold medal fighter trained by the Su family, but not a death warrior. When life and death are at stake, she will probably abandon her master and burn her blood to escape for survival. And those who can kill her must have directly extinguished her hope of escape.

The one who can easily kill a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core stage is definitely not a cultivator of the same level.

"Could it be... could it be that she actually succeeded in breaking the elixir and becoming an infant?" someone trembled.

Even in the Xuan Dynasty, where the trend of cultivating immortals was popular among the whole nation, Nascent Souls were not common.

After all, difficult things will not become simple just because more people join in. It can only be said that in terms of the number of cultivators below the Jindan stage, Xuan Country is indeed the leader of the entire continent. Above that, there is no advantage.

Looking across the Pingyun Continent, the Nascent Soul is generally at the ancestor level.

Where is this Galaxy Fairy?

She is so young, no wonder Emperor Xuan wanted to recruit her.

After a while, someone said, "Fairy Xinghe is now staying at the Ji family. I heard that she was able to enter the palace to meet the emperor thanks to Concubine Ji. I guess she has a very good relationship with the Ji family..."

"Not only that, she is also Wen Shuyu's junior sister."

"Imperial Capital, I'm afraid things are going to change."

There are many different opinions about the matter of the Galaxy Fairy, but the only thing that is certain is that the Su family’s sky has really fallen.

Su Mingyou could not have imagined that he had only bullied a powerless and wealthless mortal woman, but he could attract a Yuanying master to come to his house to seek justice. After being forced by his family to disfigure himself in order to give an explanation to the Ji Wen family and the Xinghe Fairy, he still couldn't figure it out.

The Ji family was grinning from ear to ear.

The opponent lost face for no apparent reason and also lost a peak Jindan warrior.

Where can I go to talk at home?

Ask His Majesty for justice? No matter what, it was Su Mingyou who did the unjust thing first. Moreover, Du Xinghe had just had a pleasant conversation with His Majesty and was awarded the title of guest official. No important person in the Su family died. It is hard to say who His Majesty will seek justice for at that time.

As for calling the Fairy Xinghe cruel...

She has become a sword practitioner.

If others hear you, they will just think you are arguing with a sword cultivator who has just broken through and has no idea where to vent his sword intent. Isn't that what they do?

The Su family feels so depressed!
……

Before that, Ji Wuhuo welcomed Du Xinghe back to his house and did not bother her: "If you don't mind, you can stay in my house forever. If you have any shortage of expenses, send someone to tell me. If..."

He suddenly stopped, a trace of embarrassment showing on his handsome face.

This hint of embarrassment was too subtle for Du Xinghe to notice. Seeing him pause, he smiled and urged, "What is it? Do you want me to do something? Don't be embarrassed. You've helped me so much. You can kill anyone with just a word."

After she finished speaking, she saw his face flushed all the way to his ears.

Looks like a boiled shrimp.

Crossing the galaxy is amazing.

Ji Wuhuo's cultivation was not as good as hers, but it was still easy for him to control his own body temperature. Why would he blush?
With such confusion, it is obvious that it is useless to throw a seductive glance at the sword cultivator.

"If you want to find someone to practice with, you can consider me."

Ji Wuhuo said in a muffled voice.

There are many benefits to dual cultivation with a water spirit root, and the two of them just happen to be of the same gender.

It's no wonder that Emperor Xuan is so random in his matchmaking. In Emperor Xuan's view, this is a win-win situation for all three parties.

Du Xinghe: “…Uh.”

"I'm just saying that, Xinghe, don't take it to heart." Ji Wuhuo gently adjusted his breathing, regained his calm expression, and smiled at her: "I just want you to know that as long as you can use me, I will always be there."

After saying this, he didn't give Du Xinghe a chance to think of a polite refusal and turned around and walked out.

As soon as he left, Shujiuqing, who was clinging to the door frame, whispered "Wow!"

The sword spirit also followed: "Wow."

"…What are you talking about?"

Du Xinghe glanced at the man and the sword.

Sword Spirit: "Nothing, just a sigh."

Jiu Jiu was rubbing her hands together in passion: "The young master of the Ji family is offering himself to me! A water spirit root delivered to my door! Master, how could you resist!"

Du Xinghe sat down, put the sword back into the sheath, and asked the sword spirit to say less.

Among the masters in the sect, Shu Jiuqing is the most worldly-wise and has a deeper understanding of Ji Wuhuo's status and worth. She is the most beautiful girl in the imperial capital of Xuan Kingdom and the dream partner of thousands of cultivators, both men and women. No one can win his favor, but he only likes her master.

What’s even worse is that her master remained unmoved!
"Because I have more important things to do."

Du Xinghe said, placing a token on the table: "This is the Sword Palace admission token. I asked His Majesty for an extra one. Tomorrow you will follow me into the Sword Palace to seek the truth."

All the great sword practitioners of the Xuan Dynasty attained enlightenment in the Sword Palace, and all of their disciples were geniuses.

When it comes to extraordinary talents, Du Xinghe can certainly be among them.

but……

"Master, me?"

The good-for-nothing Shu Jiuqing pointed at himself and said, "Me?"

Genius, this is the exact opposite of her.

She was just a low-level cultivator who happened to have a little understanding of magic arrays and was trying to take advantage of the situation.

"to you."

Du Xinghe said calmly: "Although you are not a sword cultivator, the Sword Scripture Pavilion of the Sword Palace has also accumulated many years of Xuanguo's research on magic arrays. You can go in and study with your token, and you can use the materials as you like."

"..."

Happiness comes too suddenly.

Shu Jiuqing certainly knew how great the Sword Sutra Pavilion was, and how many people tried their best to get in and take a look at the scenery.

How can she be?
The master spoke so highly of her, but she knew clearly in her heart that it was all because she chose the right master, benefited from the master's influence, and the master was willing to use her.

She had already prepared herself mentally to be kept in Ji Mansion and practice hard.

I didn't expect that the master would really take her with him wherever he went!

"Don't want to go?"

Du Xinghe raised his eyebrows and asked back.

“Think, think, think!”

The nine emotions nodded like pounding garlic.

Before entering the Sword Palace, Du Xinghe also went into the cave to meet Cang Hengzi.

All cultivators can endure loneliness and often go into seclusion for a hundred years. Cang Hengzi originally planned to spend two years in the underground palace in pursuit of a breakthrough in instrument cultivation. Now that he has entered the Xinghe Palace, he uses its more abundant spiritual energy than the outside world to practice, and he has devoted himself wholeheartedly to enlightenment, without even thinking of actively contacting Du Xinghe.

She came to visit suddenly today and waited for a long time in the Xinghe Palace. She played with the six cubs for a while before she finally waited for Cang Hengzi.

He looked at her and said, "You came just in time." "But my magic weapon...?"

Even though he was crossing the galaxy, he couldn't help but show a look of joy.

It has been a long time since Xuanwu gave her a scale of himself in a dream, but because of its power, it has not been successfully refined, which has become a concern for Du Xinghe and Cang Hengzi.

"Before, my realm was too low, so I couldn't refine it completely. Now that I have made a breakthrough, your magic weapon has also been refined."

Cang Hengzi said frankly.

This is the disadvantage of weapon refiners and alchemists. Although they can refine magical weapons that transcend realms, the realm they can cross is limited.

Like the scale given by Xuanwu, no matter how carefully he tried to control the spiritual fire before, he could never get it right.

To put it simply, in order to succeed in refining a weapon, one needs both the refiner's level and the cultivator's own level to keep up.

But if you choose the path of a weapon refiner, your level will lag far behind others.

If it weren't for this opportunity from the Xinghe Palace, Cang Hengzi would probably not have been able to refine the Black Tortoise Scale into a defensive magic weapon within a hundred years - but this defensive magic weapon was refined for Du Xinghe, so it can be said that they achieved mutual success.

"magic weapon?"

Du Xinghe was surprised.

Only when it can give birth to a spirit can it be called a magic weapon.

Cang Hengzi smiled and said, "Of course. If it wasn't a magic weapon, would I have to spend so much time and effort? You have broken your elixir and become an infant. You are no longer a Jindan cultivator. It shouldn't be difficult to subdue a magic weapon this time. You don't have to find ways to exploit loopholes."

Du Xinghe followed him to the weapon-like room, and saw a shield hanging high in the weapon refining room, with a faint blue-black color appearing.

The shield seems to be made of jade, clear and moist.

It was bound by chains, creating circles of ripple-like light patterns, as if it were a breathing shield.

“It’s very different from what it was before.”

Who could have seen that its original form was a piece of black snake scales?

Cang Hengzi proudly introduced how many rare materials were used to refine it and how much effort he spent on it.

Du Xinghe's attention was also attracted by it. He couldn't look away and couldn't listen to Cang Hengzi's words.

Just like when I first saw Xue Ming and Chi Xiao, I felt that this should be her sword.

This should also be her shield.

She walked forward and raised her hand. The originally calm water waves immediately became rapid and the light became brighter, as if the water waves sensed her call and were attracted by her.

The chains set up by Cang Hengzi could no longer bind it.

In an instant, the chains shattered, and the jade shield flew into Du Xinghe's hand, turning into a green armor that wrapped around his hand. This magic weapon was not light, and Du Xinghe subconsciously activated the Zhenwu Incarnation Technique. The light blue power and its greenness resonated with each other, and there was no need for any contract or blood alliance. The moment the shield reached her hand, she knew that this magic weapon belonged to her completely.

It is not a clumsy shield, but usually just a light green armor embedded in her arm. It will show its domineering true appearance when activated by spiritual power.

"Magic weapons will have their own attributes and abilities. This is not decided by me. Just like conceiving a child, what kind of personality and talents it will produce is determined by fate. Only you know. You can give it a try..."

Cang Hengzi said this, his words full of relief.

This is the first "child" he cultivated after breaking through the realm.

My love for it is no less than that for the snow-named Chixiao.

But when he finished speaking, Du Xinghe smiled and said to him:
"Master, haven't you made a breakthrough? Just accompany me for a few moves, let's give it a try."

Cang Hengzi: “Ah?”

He had a breakthrough, not a mutation.

Is there anyone who can take care of this?

There is a Nascent Soul Swordsman looking for a Jindan Weapon Refiner to fight with!

He really wants to report to the police!

But before he could answer, a gust of wind blew him to the empty martial arts training ground in the cave, where he saw Du Xinghe saying to him with joy, "Master, please make your move."

"...I can attack you, but you should hold back when you fight back. You don't want it to become my posthumous work, do you? Although it will be more valuable after it becomes my posthumous work, but..."

Cang Hengzi is a bit incoherent

But he believed that any of his colleagues who faced a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator would be more panicked than he was.

Under Du Xinghe's urging, Cang Hengzi reluctantly chopped her with his sword...

Nothing happened.

Du Xinghe: "Didn't you say this shield is very spiritual?"

"My full-strength attack can't break your protective qi... Don't look at me with such a shocked expression. I'm just a normal weapon refiner. It's normal that I can't compare to you sword cultivators with thick skin and flesh."

Cang Hengzi felt a little hurt by her gaze, and the man who was over hundreds of years old showed an aggrieved expression.

This is like getting new special-effect defensive equipment in an online game, but the monsters and players around you are too low in level to trigger the special effects of the defensive equipment.

Just as Du Xinghe was considering leaving and going to Su's house to pick a fight, a familiar and noble voice sounded beside him: "Let me do it."

"Your Majesty, you came just in time," Cang Hengzi's eyes lit up: "If you hadn't shown up, I would have almost forgotten that there was such a person in Xinghe Palace."

The two of them were practicing in seclusion in the Xinghe Palace and did not disturb each other, so there was no chance for them to meet.

Emperor Ying Cang had no expression on his face, but he took off the white satin that he had worn for many years, and stared at Du Xinghe with his cold phoenix eyes: "Come, try your new magic weapon."

After he finished speaking, Cang Hengzi rolled and crawled, carrying the six cubs who had come out to watch the fun and hid to the farthest place, and reinforced the defensive barrier at the same time.

Cang Hengzi also wanted to witness the power of his magic weapon with his own eyes.

But he also cherishes his life.

If you get accidentally injured by these two, it will be no joke.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

Du Xinghe smiled and clasped his fists.

"You are Welcome."

Emperor Ying Cang lowered his eyes, gently opened the fan in his hand, and a highly restrained spiritual power hit Du Xinghe's body.

When the wind was about to hit Du Xinghe, the green armor on her hand shone brightly, blocking the spiritual power and rebounding it to create a circle of light waves that shook all directions!
The first move of Qingjia is Dust-breaking.

"If you get attacked, you will get hurt." Du Xinghe moved his arm curiously and injected spiritual power into the green armor. The light of the green armor became brighter again and turned into a fan shape, which could be used for both offense and defense.

She activated the state of Zhenwu Incarnation Technique and injected spiritual power into the green armor again.

From Cang Hengzi's perspective, he could see a snake wrapped in black energy leaping up behind her, and when Emperor Ying Cang tried to scrape his spiritual power at her again, Qing Jia not only blocked the attack, but the black snake also attacked in his direction.

"It will chase the enemy where they came from."

Emperor Ying Cang calmly blocked the black snake and said, "Try again. This time, I will suppress my cultivation but not show myself in front of you."

The next moment, his figure disappeared without a trace.

Although his cultivation was suppressed, even if Du Xinghe used all her strength to release her spiritual sense and even activated the Purple Wisdom Pupil, she could not find out where he was - this meant that in actual combat, she would also be deceived by this concealment and fall into the awkward situation of being in the open while the enemy was in the dark.

The next moment, another attack with true meaning came.

Cultivating immortals is not martial arts, and there is not much that can be made up for by body movements and combat skills. When the realm difference is too great, the attack will miss. It is more like a "if someone is killed, he will die" inevitability. There is no loophole to exploit, and Du Xinghe can only take this move head-on.

However, the green armor shone again.

While blocking the attack, a human-shaped silhouette appeared under the tree.

“So this is where its power lies.”

Cang Hengzi, who also understood, murmured.

This is also the most powerful point of the defensive magic weapon with the aura of Xuanwu. It can appear and disappear across levels!

It detects attacks that the host cannot detect.

The figure of Emperor Ying Cang, which was revealed by the shaking of the water waves, was not clear, only a faint shadow on the water. However, for a sword cultivator, this trace was enough for her to chase him to the ends of the earth.

After figuring this out, Du Xinghe said in surprise: "It works!"

It's perfect for her character who wants to take revenge on the spot, and will never let go of a single chicken or goose in the other party's house, and even wants to pour hot water on an ant nest!
"I'll test its limits with you."

Without waiting for Du Xinghe to ask him, Ying Cangdi offered to be his sparring partner.

"It would be disrespectful for me to refuse your Majesty's advice."

Du Xinghe said in surprise.

Seeing his beloved smiling happily, Emperor Ying Cang, who had been practicing in seclusion for the past few days, felt a little proud.

He doesn't know how to say sweet words, nor does he know how to pursue a woman, but can't he still make Du Xinghe happy? The Ji family kid is very worldly-wise and can help her a lot in terms of interpersonal relationships. He admits that he can't do this. If he leaves the Xinghe Palace and shows up in Xuan Country, it will cause the Emperor Xuan to be wary and bring Du Xinghe a lot of unnecessary trouble at this stage. But his choice to endure does not mean that he can't do anything.

Oh, lend her the house?

Oh, you want to practice dual cultivation with her and offer yourself to her?
ridiculous.

Emperor Ying Cang was furious when he thought about how the Ji family kid was courting Du Xinghe while he could only watch from the dark. He had never experienced such a big emotional ups and downs in thousands of years. This strange emotion impacted his meridians which had always been stable, and even his breathing became rapid for a moment...

"hiss!"

One attack failed to control the upper limit of cultivation and landed on Du Xinghe, penetrating the protection of the Black Tortoise Green Armor and scraping a bowl-sized wound on her arm, with blood pooling down.

"It's too bloody, children can't watch this."

Cang Hengzi's eyes widened, and he stretched out his arms to cover the twelve eyes of the six cubs: "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

When the bloody red burned through Emperor Ying Cang's eyes, he realized that he had lost control of his power because of his burning jealousy.

His original intention was certainly not to hurt Du Xinghe.

It's just that the spiritual power moves at will.

His spiritual power obeyed his will and went out of control before his.

Emperor Ying Cang removed all his spiritual power and stood there in a daze. He was a man of few words and his face showed no expression. Because his realm was too high, he often gave people the illusion that he was in control and omnipotent. At this moment, he stood there alone, and Cang Hengzi actually tasted the taste of panic from him.

Even someone as strong as Half-Step Ascension would sometimes feel at a loss for what to do after accidentally hurting his loved one?

It seems that it is not surprising that he is a bootlicker for his sister-in-law.

"Right..."

Emperor Ying Cang was about to apologize, but what responded to him was two loud laughs straighter than steel.

"Haha, that's great, give me a few more moves."

Du Xinghe casually smeared a hemostatic powder on the wound. She didn't know how to heal illnesses and save lives. That wasn't even a proper hemostatic powder. Instead, she casually shattered a blood-recovering pill with her spiritual power and smeared it on the wound. "Your Majesty, I felt that you were holding back too much before. You could use more force. It would be best if you could be like Senior Chen and let me feel the sense of crisis at the critical moment of life and death, so that I can activate my full strength!"

Cang Hengzi: "..."

Are there really people in the world who deserve a beating?

Or is this unique to sword cultivators?
"The Senior Chen you mentioned beat you to death?" Emperor Ying Cang noticed something wrong in her words.

He asked casually, and she answered casually: "Yes, because we are all anxious to avenge the Wu clan and improve our own strength."

After taking a look at Emperor Ying Cang's expression, Cang Hengzi felt worried for Senior Chen.

Du Xinghe didn't think it was a big deal, so he didn't tell His Majesty that she was beaten to death in an illusion.

"Really? I remember that."

Emperor Ying Cang's eyes deepened slightly, and a protective barrier was set up around him to prevent the two from fighting and causing the collapse of the Xinghe Palace: "If you want to experience the feeling of near death, you don't have to seek help from others, just come to me."

He would control his strength and satisfy her requirements.

Let her not have to look for anyone else.

Seeing His Majesty teaching him so generously, Du Xinghe's eyes lit up, and he drew his sword and shield at the same time:
"Okay! Then please, Your Majesty, practice with me."

"Your Majesty, please enlighten me!"
