Begin immortality by slaying demons.

Chapter 545: The Third Dao-Realm Stone
late at night.

In a courtyard in Red Maple Valley.

Fairy Zi Lan and Yue Tiance sat across the table from each other, while the Valley Master and several elders were waiting quietly beside them.

It's not that the people of Donglong Palace are of noble status and the servants they send out must be elders of the faction, but in the current Red Maple Valley, compared to the disciples who are busy making pills, these few with the strongest cultivation are more dangerous.

That's why Fairy Zi Lan called them over, saying that she wanted to chat, but in reality she was just worried.

"Didn't you inform Fellow Daoist Shen?"

The downside of being kind is that you can easily get into trouble, but the upside is that because you have experienced too much trouble, you can try to stay calm no matter what situation you encounter.

Even though this girl in a purple dress was seriously injured, she spoke softly at this moment and never lost her temper from beginning to end. If it weren't for her extremely delicate appearance and her powerful cultivation, it would be hard to tell that she was a dragon girl who was loved by thousands among the top forces.

"Reporting to the fairy, I have already been to Senior Shen's residence to invite him, but he declined."

The Red Maple Valley Master stepped forward in a hurry. To be honest, the black-shirted senior seemed to be the weakest among the three, but in terms of personality, he was even more arrogant than the young masters and young ladies from the Yue Family and the East Dragon Palace. Since he entered the valley, he had been almost always alone and seldom talked to others.

"That's it..."

Fairy Zi Lan was stunned for a moment, and seemed to have a headache: "Where is that little girl?"

Fellow Daoist Shen is quite powerful. He dares to venture into Xihong alone, so he must have some means to protect his life. It is normal that he does not want to be protected by others. Even if he really encounters that bear monster, as long as it is still in the Red Maple Valley, he and others will always be able to detect it, and it will not be too late to rush over then.

But it would be safer for the little girl to stay with him and Yue Tiance.

“Never seen him.” The Red Maple Valley Master smiled bitterly. The reason why he felt that Senior Shen was arrogant was because he couldn’t even get in the door and was sent away while standing outside.

“That’s enough.” Yue Tiance subconsciously wanted to complain, glanced at Fairy Zi Lan, and tried to calm his tone: “I know you are soft-hearted, but everyone has his own destiny. Can you still protect others for a lifetime? Just let him go.”

Besides, he didn't think that guy was worth making friends with.

"If you see it, take care of it. If you don't see it, forget it. Don't worry, I will handle it as soon as possible." Fairy Zi Lan explained softly. After all, the other party also had important things to do and was delayed because of her.

"I have already informed the Yunhe Sect and asked their ancestors to come and protect us for a while. When my aunt sends someone over, it will be almost done."

In this land and water of Xihong, there should be few things that Jade Mountain Dragon Queen cannot solve.

"Okay, I'll go wash myself, you keep an eye on it for a while." Fairy Zi Lan stood up.

As everyone knows, this purple-bearded white dragon has mysophobia, otherwise it would not have left so many "Purple Orchid Fairy Emerging from the Bath" pictures in Hongze. It is not easy for it to have endured until now since it was injured a few days ago.

"Go ahead and don't worry." Yue Tiance smiled gently.

In fact, he had no interest in these trivial matters. Even if Xihong was killed, it had nothing to do with his Beihong Yue family.

But he had to pretend to be chivalrous in front of Zilan in order to maintain their pretty good relationship and take it to the next level.

“Please come this way, fairy. Although the hot spring at the back of the valley is not as good as the one at Donghong, it is still a beautiful place.” The Lord of Red Maple Valley turned around and led the way.

"I can go by myself."

Fairy Zi Lan nodded her chin, politely declined the other party's kindness, and then walked out of the courtyard.

She stretched her body slightly and was about to show her true form, but suddenly she paused, withdrew her arms hesitantly, and looked in another direction.

I'm still a little worried. Why don't you go over and take a look?

Thinking of this, she changed the direction of her feet slightly. Instead of going to the back of the valley, she walked towards Shen Yi's residence.

……

In another courtyard in Red Maple Valley.

Shen Yi sat cross-legged in the room, as demonic spirits gathered from all directions.

Given his personality, it is of course impossible for him to pin all his hopes on the demons coming to him. No matter whether it is useful or not, it is better to take the initiative to look for it than to sit there and do nothing.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar enough with Xihong, and I have not gained anything until now.

"call."

Shen Yi opened his eyes again, and at this moment, he saw An Yi tugging at his sleeves, which was rare. He couldn't help but glance sideways: "Huh?"

The little guy pointed outside silently.

It can be seen that her bad behavior is only limited to situations where there is no threat to Shen Yi. As long as she feels that there is a little bit of surprise, she will still honestly act as a guardian.

Following An Yi's reminder, a sinister laugh also echoed in Shen Yi's mind.

"With your limited skills, you dare to get involved in everything. Do you really think you have the East Dragon Palace to clean up your mess?"

As he was about to finish his words, a black wind suddenly arose and swept Shen Yi in!
The black bear demon had long been prepared to face the cultivator's crazy counterattack. It could feel that this black-shirted young man was much stronger than those scumbags in the Red Maple Valley. In addition, there were people from the East Dragon Palace guarding next to them. Even though there was a big gap in their realms, it did not take it lightly.

However, what surprised the bear monster was that Shen Yi seemed to be frightened silly. Not only did he not use any Taoist weapons or magic weapons, but even the expression on his face did not change at all. He was easily wrapped up in the black wind by him.

"Is such a person worthy of being invited as a helping hand?"

The bear demon spat with disdain, and that saved the trouble.

It casually threw the letter it had prepared in advance on the table, and then quietly escaped from the Red Maple Valley with the black wind.

The entire room was intact, and even the door was still closed.

After a long time, a figure in a purple skirt finally arrived and stood outside the courtyard. She bowed and said, "Sorry to bother you, Fellow Daoist Shen. Zi Lan is here to visit you. I wonder if you can come out and chat with me?"

Time passed slowly, but there was no response from the courtyard.

Fairy Zi Lan frowned slightly, feeling a little uneasy. She hesitated for a moment, not caring about politeness, and began to sense the courtyard.

In an instant, a barely detectable familiar aura emerged.

Her expression suddenly changed.

Fairy Zi Lan no longer hesitated, she rushed out, slapped the door open with one hand, and then the empty room came into her sight.

She clenched her teeth and for the first time, she felt angry.

Where is the jade scale that I gave? Where is the means to save my life?
Judging from the faint breath I just sensed, the bear monster didn't even really put in any effort.

"I……"

Fairy Zi Lan took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Her eyes quickly swept across the room and landed on the letter on the table.

Only then did she feel a little relieved, fortunately there was still room for discussion.

……

Xihong, where the damp monster hides.

A black wind swept in and fell into the messy cave.

The two bear monsters had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing this, they were all delighted and then surrounded them cautiously.

What they didn't expect was that their father actually walked in from outside in a very leisurely manner.

"Dad, your cultivation has improved again?"

"Improvement!" The tall bear demon sneered. That threshold was not so easy to cross. "Are you sure this is the help that Zi Lan invited?"

As it spoke, it casually removed the black wind, revealing a tall figure standing with his hands hanging down.

The remaining two bear monsters looked over and said, "That's him...what's wrong?"

"It's really hard for me to believe that Zi Lan would change her decision because of such a cultivator." The tall bear monster couldn't help but sneered again.

"..." The shorter bear demon smiled awkwardly. Judging from his father's expression, the monk's performance might have been too disappointing. "Fairy Zi Lan won't care about these. Anyway, as long as she can help you get through this hurdle, that's all."

"That's right, tie him up." The tall bear monster waved his hand lacking interest.

At this time, the last bear demon shouted in a low voice: "What are you looking at? You don't even know that you are about to die."

"You'd better pray that you can really help my father. If that bitch Zi Lan doesn't care about you, then you just wait and see."

The other two big monsters all cast their gazes over there.

But he saw that the young man was actually looking at him and others seriously.

After confirming that the information from Wanxiang Pavilion matched, Shen Yi sighed slightly. He didn't mean that he had to encounter a very powerful monster. After all, his strength was limited. If he really met a tough guy, it would be hard to say who would win.

However, the strength of these three bear monsters does not quite match Shen Yi's understanding of the profound heritage of the West Dragon Palace.

Even the strongest one has not yet truly entered the realm of Hedao.

Thinking of this, Shen Yi patted his sleeves, finally retracted his gaze, and said lightly: "Help them."

Hearing this, the bear demon who had threatened just now laughed out of anger. He strode forward and grabbed the young monk's shoulder: "You are still shouting, no..."

Before he finished speaking, a cry of surprise was heard from inside the cave.

The fat body of the bear monster suddenly flew into the air and was lifted up by a wide dragon claw grabbing its head.

Covered in a gorgeous dark golden robe, the majestic figure stood in the cave like a mountain.

The remaining two bear monsters were stunned for a moment, and then they sensed the emergence of a breath.

Just at the entrance of the cave, a very petite figure wearing the same robe walked in slowly. The two figures, one tall and one short, casually blocked the way of the three bear monsters.

From the way they were dressed, it was clear that the two men were from the same force.

But the tall bear monster thought carefully for a moment and still couldn't guess their identities at all.

It bared its teeth slightly, and its voice deepened: "Put my son down first, and don't get yourself into trouble."

As he spoke, rich demonic power poured out without any concealment, toward the two figures that suddenly appeared, announcing that the bear demon's strength was extremely close to the Hedao realm!

Faced with such a threat, both Ke Shisan and An Yi seemed to be completely unaware.

The sharp dragon claws clenched suddenly and crushed the bear monster's head.

An Yi walked to the other bear monster, stretched out his palm slightly, and landed on the opponent, and the strong body suddenly shot forward!

Boom—the only remaining tall bear monster had not yet fully reacted to the change, his eyes still dazed, and he was forced to face the figure that was falling like a mountain.

It mobilized all its demonic power, raised its arms high, and used a raging black wind to try to catch its son.

However, the moment the bear's paw touched the body, its facial features instantly became hideous and distorted. The vast demonic power that it was most proud of seemed so insignificant in front of the attacking figure, like a stream facing the ocean.

That is truly a powerful demonic force comparable to that of the Hedao realm!

Although it is only a step away from that realm, it seems like there is a chasm between them.

The black wind dissipated instantly, and the arms of the tall bear monster shattered into pieces like brittle bamboos, followed by its sternum. Its entire body flew out uncontrollably, causing the entire cave to collapse.

With its level of cultivation, it was already in such a mess, not to mention the son in its arms, whose internal organs were shattered and lifeless.

"You...you..."

The tall bear demon collapsed to the ground, kicked the corpse away, and crawled backwards with all his strength.

In order to prevent them from causing trouble, Lord Long had already explained in detail the distribution of forces in Xihong. They were already familiar with the forces that had a Hedao realm in charge, and the people before them were definitely not among them.

For some reason, the recent rumors suddenly flashed through the bear demon's mind.

There was fear in its eyes.

There actually really are such a group of evil spirits, and they came to me for no apparent reason.

Thinking of this, it instinctively looked at the young man in black clothes... No wonder Zi Lan invited him over, this kid actually has such a terrifying background!

“My dear seniors, listen to me—” The bear monster took a deep breath, trying to endure the severe pain on his body, and said breathlessly: “I… I was originally a subordinate of Master Qi of the West Dragon Palace… I am willing to become your disciple, and I only ask for a way to survive!”

A huge shadow enveloped the bear monster's body. Under its dull gaze, the tall figure nodded slightly: "Welcome."

Hearing this, the bear demon suddenly showed a look of joy at having escaped death, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, senior, thank you, senior..."

"You're welcome."

As he spoke, Ke Shisan raised his right foot and coldly crushed the bear monster's head.

[Killed the Bear Monster of Baiyujing Iron Mountain, with a total lifespan of 390,000 years, and a remaining lifespan of 120,000 years, absorbed]

[Remaining demon lifespan: 2.39 million years]

"Let it enter your East Palace."

Seeing that the task was done, Shen Yi waved his hand and took Ke Shisan into his sea of ​​consciousness. Compared to the Yin-Yang Pendant, he used the Golden Patterned Black Sword more often.

The three bear monsters together contribute 320,000 years of monster lifespan. It can be seen that they are worthy of being raised by Boss Qi. Their cultivation speed is much faster than that of other wild monsters.

For Shen Yi now, the thing that consumes the most demon lifespan is nothing more than the secret treasure in the nameless mountain.

Not to mention that it may not be an immortal technique. Even if it is true, with a demon's lifespan of more than two million years, learning seven or eight books is enough.

This trip to Xihong was really worth it. I suddenly felt like I was much wealthier.

Shen Yi gathered a suppressing stone, and then began to condense the essence of the demon and reshape the soul of the Iron Mountain Bear Demon.

Perhaps even this bear demon did not expect that what would help it cross that hurdle in the end would be the lives of its two sons.

The three corpses turned into a river of blood and poured into the stone.

Successfully pushed it to a new level!

The financial resources that the eldest brother of the Qi family had spent over the years finally reaped the rewards at this moment!

Not every demon soul can be as frugal as An Yi. If one wants to control the Hedao realm's stone, the required demon soul strength is extremely terrifying.

Even for this bear demon that was only one step away from achieving the state of harmony, after more than twenty demon origins were used to reshape its demon soul, Shen Yi added more than ten more before the stone in front of him was brought back to life!

"..."

Even though he had already conquered two more powerful hall masters, there were still some ripples on Shen Yi's face.

The third Hedao-level Zhenshi, that is to say, now he alone has surpassed the Banshan Sect, a first-class force in Xihong.

"Xiong Lu, meet my lord!"

After sensing the huge changes in his body, Xiong Lu looked at the figures in front of him and finally recognized who was the most terrifying one.

Especially the petite figure who killed its young cub with just one palm and seriously injured itself. But now she was standing obediently behind the figure in black shirt, like a harmless maid.

It is horrifying that a powerful person in the Hedao realm would show such an attitude!
Those two frightening "predecessors" were not protectors of the faith at all. They were just people who were suppressed and enslaved like themselves.

No wonder the master was so calm just now, the other party was clearly coming for Xiong Lu...

……

In the quiet courtyard of Red Maple Valley.

Even Yue Tiance noticed the anger beneath Fairy Zi Lan's calm face. For a moment, he didn't know what to do and could only comfort her, "He asked for it. It has nothing to do with you."

"Tian Ce, I'm sorry to trouble you this time, but I don't want to discuss whose responsibility this is for the time being." Fairy Zi Lan forced a slightly forced smile. No matter how strong Fellow Daoist Shen was, she had invited the other party and he was abducted by a demon.

Instead of blaming yourself or the demon, you blame a passing monk. This is a bit unreasonable.

What's more, at this time, the most urgent task is how to rescue him, nothing else matters.

"..."

Although the girl's attitude was tactful, Yue Tiance knew that he had said the wrong thing and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

Then, this annoyance fell on the young man surnamed Shen.

The other party was so conceited, but in the end he only had this little ability... At such a close distance, even the Lord of Red Maple Valley could have made some noise, and this kid was abducted without a sound.

I have to find a way to protect him, what the hell is this!
"I have sent a message to the Yunhe Sect, asking that senior to come as soon as possible. When the time comes, I will have to trouble you again to look after the Red Maple Valley for me and make sure that group of demons do not cause any more trouble."

Fairy Zi Lan quickly adjusted her mood and skipped the topic. Yue Tiance was trying to help out of kindness, so there was no reason for her to blame him for his harsh words.

“Don’t you need me to follow you?” Yue Tiance sighed and wanted to hold on a little longer.

"This is the reply my aunt gave me, take a look." Fairy Zi Lan handed over a jade slip.

Yue Tiance took it and looked at it, only to see several unfamiliar names among them.

Wanxiang Pavilion is destroyed... Qi family's seventh master comes to visit... Wan Yao Palace?

"Your aunt really has the West Dragon Palace under control. She can get the news about the dragon son so quickly." Yue Tiance didn't know what this meant, so he could only agree with a smile.

"This Ten Thousand Demons Palace is the force that has been causing quite a stir in Xihong recently." Zi Lan's eyebrows showed worry and she shook her head: "They seem to like targeting the younger generations of the big families. Even the Wuliangdao Palace was not spared. It's better for you to stay away from them."

“Do you suspect that this bear monster is from the Ten Thousand Monsters Palace?” Yue Tiance’s face became more serious, and he suddenly remembered something: “You said it as if you are not from a noble family. How dare you go there?”

"That's why I asked Senior Yunhezong to come over. I'm worried that I'll anger the Ten Thousand Demons Palace. I won't be able to protect Fellow Daoist Shen by myself."

Fairy Zi Lan stood up, looked up at the sky with a little anxiety, and took a deep breath: "I invited Fellow Daoist Shen to come here, so naturally I have to send him away safely."

"I'm so fucking convinced! What does this have to do with you? Is it worth taking such a risk? If he had come here honestly, this wouldn't have happened. Even if the Ten Thousand Demons Palace killed him and you feel bad about it, we can join forces to avenge him. There's no need to do this..."

Yue Tiance finally couldn't hold back and burst out cursing, scaring the Red Maple Valley monks nearby so much that they dared not even breathe.

Fairy Zi Lan looked sideways in surprise and was about to say something, but her body paused slightly and then she looked outside the yard.

"..."

Shen Yi quietly looked at the large group of people in his courtyard and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The reason he came back was that he remembered that Xiong Lu had left a letter on the table. In order to avoid any misunderstanding from these people, he planned to come back and take it away, and by the way, find an excuse to leave.

After all, although he didn't want to have anything to do with the East Dragon Palace, the dragon girl was well-intentioned, so there was no need to cause unnecessary trouble for others.

I didn't expect that I was still a little slow.

"You..." Fairy Zi Lan stretched out her hand to stop Yue Tiance and asked hesitantly, "Why are you back?"

Looking at Fellow Daoist Shen's clean appearance, his face not red and he not out of breath, he doesn't look like he was kidnapped at all.

"I was bored, so I just took a walk." Shen Yi nodded his chin and said perfunctorily.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Zi Lan stood there with a complicated expression on her face. She couldn't understand how there could be someone in the world who could lie with such a calm expression and open eyes.

Under Fellow Daoist Shen's clean black shirt, the blood energy contained in it was much richer, and one could tell it was fresh at the first smell.

What she couldn't understand was how the other party managed to break out from the control of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.

The powerful foundation demonstrated by what that force did was not something a cultivator from Baiyujing could contend with... Let alone the bear monster, he could easily kill it.

Could it be that I was wrong and Brother Shen has other tricks up his sleeve?
"That's all."

Fairy Zi Lan shook her head. Since Fellow Daoist Shen was unwilling to say more, she was not the type to ask questions.

The girl gently rubbed her brows and smiled helplessly: "I'm glad you're okay."

Yue Tiance remained silent, and there was a hint of hostility in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yi. The hands hidden in his sleeves also made a defensive gesture. He slightly adjusted his body and protected Zi Lan to the side.

He did not have the keen perception of the White Dragon clan, but when something was unusual, there must be something fishy.

Yue Tiance would not trust a stranger so easily, especially since he already had a very bad impression of this young man.

If he hadn't been worried about Zi Lan getting angry, he would have taken her down long ago.

In this somewhat awkward atmosphere, a series of clouds suddenly appeared in the distant sky, which was extremely conspicuous in the night.

A series of figures with a strong aura stood on it, led by an old man dressed in gorgeous clothes, exuding a vast aura that made people dare not look directly at him.

Behind him, Daozi from the Yunhe Sect accompanied Daozi Lin from the Bihai Sect, and they were surrounded by great monks wearing elders’ robes.

The reason why an immortal sect could come out in full force was no longer because they were afraid of the top forces, but also partly because the Donglong Palace was really worthy of people's trust.
