Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Crackling sounds!

The firelight flickered, and Nangong Xuandu lowered his head in silence.

After a while, two clear teardrops fell to the ground with a 'patta' sound.

They had worked together for thousands of years, and their friendship had long surpassed that of friends, more like sworn brothers.

After countless hardships, they finally ascended to the Immortal Realm in their lifetime, and now they are doing their best to find the others.

But they didn't expect that Dragon Marquis already knew about Zen Kongzi's death.

Nangong Xuandu drank his wine, and after a long while, he said in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Why... didn't you tell me earlier?"

Dragon Marquis drank his wine, leaned back against the stone, and murmured with a dazed look.

"What's the use of telling you... we can't change anything."

Silence.

Apart from the crackling sound of burning wood, the two of them silently drank their wine.

The atmosphere became a little oppressive.

Dragon Marquis looked up at the night sky, his eyes dazed.

"The Immortal Realm... is too different from what I imagined."

"The Ten Lands, the Eight Desolations, the Nine Heavens..."

"There is still a hierarchy, the law of the jungle, selfishness and self-interest are vividly reflected in the Immortal Realm."

Nangong Xuandu actually understood the cruelty of the Immortal Realm.

But the more it was like this, the more unwilling he was to accept Zen Kongzi's death...

"Achan's fist technique... if it were in the Immortal Realm, it should have achieved great things."

"How could he... die so easily..."

Nangong Xuandu's tone was a little low, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

Zen Kongzi's death was as unacceptable as someone falling down the stairs and dying.

Dragon Marquis didn't speak, his eyes flashing with complicated light.

"The Ascension Hall... who exactly is instructing them to look for ascended cultivators from the Human Spirit Realm?"

"Whether it's you or me, we've all experienced being hunted down by the Ascension Hall."

"Perhaps it's not just you and me, I even suspect that Achan's death... is related to the Ascension Hall."

Nangong Xuandu didn't speak, his expression extremely complicated.

The two of them were silent, while Dragon Marquis was thinking about something.

The red figure flashed in his mind, he gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Is big brother thinking about Sister Hong?"

Dragon Marquis got up, took a sip of wine, casually added a handful of firewood, and let out a long breath.

"Yes."

"And Lao Xiang and Yu Shan, I wonder how they are."

Nangong Xuandu said softly.

"Don't worry."

"If they haven't encountered any special circumstances, the one you least need to worry about is that guy Yu Shan."

"He has too many ways to save his life."

"It's Lao Xiang and Sister Hong who I don't know if they are safe now."

In fact, people at their level had long guessed that something was wrong here.

However, they didn't know what was involved here.

Whoosh.

Nangong Xuandu inverted the wine jar in his hand, and the clear strong wine slowly spilled on the ground.

"Brother, this jar of wine... I offer it to you."

Dragon Marquis did the same.

The next morning, Dragon Marquis and Nangong Xuandu left the forest.

They couldn't find a place too close to where they would sell that spiritual plant.

After several twists and turns, the two arrived at a city called Rockwater City.

Dragon Marquis and Nangong Xuandu, wearing black robes, walked out of a shop.

Nangong Xuandu looked happy, with a Broken True Immortal Pill and two bottles of pills in his storage ring.

But after the excitement, Nangong Xuandu looked up at Dragon Marquis and said with a complicated expression.

"Big brother... isn't it too wasteful to use so many resources to exchange for a Broken True Immortal Pill for me?"

Dragon Marquis smiled slightly, patted Nangong Xuandu's shoulder, and whispered.

"It's better for you to improve your cultivation level as soon as possible than anything else."

"It's just a more precious spiritual plant."

"When your realm comes up, you and I brothers will continue to compete for resources."

Nangong Xuandu nodded slightly upon hearing this, and the two walked side by side.

Two imposing guys walked towards them, and the manager of the Treasure Pavilion bowed and walked beside them with respectful small steps, flattering.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhuang, what brings you here in person."

The middle-aged man had his hands behind his back, wearing a golden brocade robe, holding a jade string, and his chin was slightly raised with his eyes above his head.

The man's temperament was a little gloomy, and he said with a fake smile.

"Didn't I get some good things recently, so I came over to show you and exchange them for some immortal crystals to spend."

Dragon Marquis pulled Nangong Xuandu to the side slightly, making way and not wanting to cause trouble.

Elder Zhuang sneered when he saw this, glanced at the two of them lightly, and then stopped looking.

The two sides passed by, and the other two walked up the steps.

Suddenly!

Ding Ling!

A crisp bell collision sounded, and Dragon Marquis's whole body froze in place as if struck by lightning.

Nangong Xuandu took a step forward before realizing what the sound was just now.

Dragon Marquis turned his head sharply, his eyes under the black robe staring at the person's hand.

A pair of golden bells suddenly appeared in the other person's hand!!

Dragon Marquis's gaze was instantly noticed by the other party, who turned his head to look at the position at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion.

However, the position where Dragon Marquis was originally standing was empty.

"Strange... I clearly sensed a different gaze..."

Then the two walked into the pavilion.

In the corner of the mansion in the distance, Nangong Xuandu said solemnly with a solemn expression.

"It's Sister Hong's saber bell!!"

Dragon Marquis's breathing was a little rapid, and a pair of eyes flashed with crazy killing intent.

He clenched his teeth, and his mind raced.

He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths in a row, before calming the anxiety in his heart.

Nangong Xuandu pursed his lips, his face a little complicated.

That golden bell is from Hong Zhi's saber.

But now it appears in the hands of a strange man.

They just talked about Zen Kongzi's matter last night, and today they encountered such a thing again, Nangong Xuandu felt a little depressed in his heart for a while.

Dragon Marquis pondered for a long while and slowly opened his mouth.

"Hong Zhi should be fine..."

"Her saber... is more valuable than the golden bell!"

"If something really happened, the other party would definitely take Hong Zhi's saber to sell instead of the golden bell."

Nangong Xuandu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"What to do next?"

Dragon Marquis's eyes flickered.

"Capture them alive!"

Nangong Xuandu's eyes flickered upon hearing this, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

"Wait for me for a while, I'm going to break through!"

Those two are both at the Second Level of the True Immortal Realm, and although Dragon Marquis alone wouldn't be defeated.

But if he wants to capture the other party alive... it will still be very difficult.

Dragon Marquis frowned.

"Are you sure you can do it?"

Nangong Xuandu's mouth turned up, and a strong confidence appeared on his face.

"I have a 40% chance of breaking through on my own, and now with the blessing of the pills, there's no problem!"

After speaking, Nangong Xuandu flashed and sped away towards the distance outside the city.

Before long, thick tribulation clouds slowly gathered in the sky above the mountains hundreds of miles away.

The movement of breaking through the True Immortal Tribulation was neither big nor small, and it didn't attract too much attention.

Dragon Marquis restrained his aura and hid in the dark, his eyes staring at the direction of the Treasure Pavilion.

"Azhi..."
