Mortal Bones

Three Emperors Palace.

"This little girl should be Xiahou You, the eldest daughter of the current head of the Xiahou family, right?"

When he saw the two clouds Gu Qingcheng used to clear the way for Xu Taiping, the deputy palace master Yun Shiliu immediately guessed her true identity.

"Xia Houyou? Did you introduce this girl to me a few years ago?"

The old palace master stared at the spiritual mirror in front of him and asked without looking back.

"Yes." Yun Shiliu nodded, "Old Palace Master, you didn't take a fancy to her at that time, and since she was trapped in Xuanhuang Tower later, the matter was settled."

"When things happen at Xuanhuang Tower, Shiliu, you arrange for her to meet with me. I want to give him a personal test to see if she can practice my "Nine Books on the Cloud".

Upon hearing this, Yun Shiliu's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded her head and said:

"Don't worry, Old Palace Master, I will bring her as soon as she comes out of the tower."

The Old Palace Master’s Ninth Uncle Yunlui is one of the most powerful secrets in the Three Emperors Dao Palace. Every year, each palace will send the most talented disciples in Yunlui to seek advice from the Old Palace Master to see if they can be accepted by him. For heirs.

However, the old palace master was extremely strict in his requirements for the talents of his successors, and so far no one could meet his discernment. Therefore, when Yun Shiliu heard that the old palace master intended to teach Xia Houyou's "Nine Books of Yun Lu", he was naturally happy.

"Why do you suddenly want to see this girl?"

Although Yun Shiliu had some guesses, she still wanted to hear what the old palace master had to say with her own ears.

"To be able to consistently choose to pave the way for Xu Taiping to climb the tower, his vision and determination are much beyond ordinary disciples. In addition, this can be regarded as the first goodwill sent by our Three Emperors Dao Palace to Xu Taiping."

The old palace master said bluntly.

Upon hearing that the old palace master would actually take the initiative to send goodwill to Xu Taiping, Yun Shiliu suddenly felt a chill in her heart and thought to herself:

"It seems that the old palace master is really planning to make friends with Xu Taiping to pave the way for the future battlefield of demons."

"boom!"

And just as Yun Shiliu's thoughts were spinning, a dull collision sound suddenly came from the spiritual mirror again.

In the spiritual mirror, Xu Taiping used the killing sword to kill several demon cultivators who came to block the way.

When more demonic cultivators besieged him, the sword slave clone next to him immediately took action, like a killing god, killing the demonic cultivators who kept besieging him with one sword after another.

"Swish, swish, swish!..."

Listening to the sound of sword energy piercing the air that kept coming from the spiritual mirror, Yun Shiliu in front of the spiritual mirror had a complex expression, while the old palace master on the side fell into silence.

"Old Palace Master, did this senior Sword Slave really die in the hands of that ancient demon from Jiuyuan, as rumored?"

Yun Shiliu turned to look at the old palace master beside him, and said in a somewhat doubtful tone.

Regarding the death of Dao Nu, there is actually no exact record in the Shangqing Realm. We only know that he failed to ascend with Emperor Xuanhuang in the end, and most likely died at the hands of the ancient demon Chi Yin in the First Demon Cave of Jiuyuan.

"Many years ago, I had no doubts about this rumor. But ten years ago, I got a secret report that someone found the remains of the ancient demon Chi Yin in the secret realm outside the sky, and nailed it to death in the secret realm. The sword in his hand is one of the Sword Slave’s swords.”

The old palace master said with awe.

"In that rumored battle, the winner in the end... was actually the Sword Slave?!"

Yun Shiliu said with a trembling voice.

"At least the sword slave was not defeated." The old palace master nodded.

After receiving the confirmation, Yun Shiliu looked at the sword slave who was killing everyone in the spiritual mirror, and the awe in his heart became stronger.

"Those demon cultivators in Jiuyuan certainly didn't expect that the sacrifice set up by them under the guidance of the ghosts would reduce the constraints of the laws around the Tiantian Platform, but it would also release a monster that they couldn't deal with."

Seeing the sword slave leading Xu Taiping, killing every step of the way, killing all kinds of monsters so that the evil gods could not get close, the old palace master suddenly said in a very happy tone.

"So, as long as Xu Taiping follows Dao Nu to the top of the rooftop, he can successfully climb to the twelfth floor of Xuanhuang Tower?"

Yun Shiliu said with a hint of excitement and expectation in her tone.

The entire Shangqing Realm has not seen a monk climb to the top of the Xuanhuang Tower for almost 30,000 to 40,000 years, so some excitement is inevitable.

"Yes." The old palace master nodded, "As expected, Xu Taiping, who climbed to the twelfth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower, will be able to inform Emperor Xuanhuang of what happened here. By then, even if the emperor has no choice Taking action to expel Xuanhuangtian’s Jiuyuan demons personally can at least point out a clear path for Xuanhuangtian.”

Like Yun Shiliu, the old palace master also spoke with a hint of excitement.

"boom!……"

But just as the two of them were talking like this, a burst of extremely strong aura fluctuations suddenly erupted from Xu Taiping's body in the spiritual mirror. At the same time, he rushed out from behind the old palace master with a knife and faced the groups of Yinshen. of black shadow.

"This Xu Taiping, why do you want to take action yourself? It's too risky!"

Seeing this scene, Yun Shiliu exclaimed in confusion.

The old palace master on the side suddenly said with a bit of envy after being stunned for a moment:

"To be able to test the sword with a group of demons under the guidance of the sword slave, I am afraid that only the luck of the leader of the Golden Scale Ranking can be obtained."

Upon hearing this, Yun Shiliu on the side immediately moved, and his eyes also showed envy.

…

Before half a cup of tea.

On the steps to the rooftop.

"Xu Taiping, do you dare to draw a sword?"

After the sword slave killed another evil god transformed into a monster with his sword, he suddenly turned to look at Xu Taiping behind him and asked with a grin.

"dare!"

Xu Taiping nodded heavily without any hesitation.

After watching the sword slave strike out his sword hundreds of times, Xu Taiping was eager to try it out, wanting to see if the feeling he had just gained was correct.

This was completely the instinct of a sword cultivator.

For a sword cultivator, as long as there was an opportunity to improve, he would never hesitate to speak up. As for whether he would die because of it, he never thought about it.

"Then you come!"

The sword slave smiled even more when he saw Xu Taiping agreed so readily, and immediately put away his sword and made way.

"Bang!"

Just as he made way, an evil god found the right opportunity and came to Xu Taiping as if teleporting. After showing his figure, he slapped Xu Taiping with a palm as powerful as a tidal wave.
