Chapter 257: Returning the Favor

"Dare to bewitch this seat and look for death!"

Gu Jie opened his mouth and shouted, the sound was like a bell, instantly dispersing the woman's laughter.

I saw that his wrist flicked, and the void in front of him fluctuated, and a cyan flying sword appeared out of thin air, rapidly sweeping towards the woman in white.

I didn't see how the woman in white moved, and the snow lotus flower under her suddenly shone brightly, and a piece of jade-like petals swaggered up, blocking in front of her.

A sharp sound of "Zheng".

The tip of the cyan flying sword pierced into the snow lotus petals, and then it could no longer move forward, and could only tremble in mid-air.

Seeing this, Gu Jie pinched the sword formula with both hands and silently recited the mantra in his mouth.

I saw that the runes on the cyan flying sword were bright, piercing into the top of the sword tip of the snow lotus, and suddenly lit up with a cyan light the size of a grain of rice, and bursts of rich wood attribute aura came out of it.

With the light of blue light, the entire snow lotus petals began to change from the color of transparent white jade to the color of crystal jade.

Just listen to the soft sound of "poof".

The rice-grain-like blue light flashed, and suddenly it shone brightly, and suddenly shot out a crystal green silk thread like jade, slender as hair, looking weak, but the speed was amazing, and it instantly pierced through the snow lotus petals and shot into the flower buds.

Seeing this, the woman who was lying in the snow lotus flower looked at her slightly, waved the leafless white flower in her hand, and hit the green silk thread.

"Poof, poof", there were two soft sounds in a row.

The turquoise silk thread penetrated the two layers of petals straight before it stopped, the light dimmed, and then dissipated, and the white flower in the hand of the woman in white also had two petals that turned black in color and withered and fell off directly.

"I really don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. ”

The woman caressed the white flower with some complaint, then stood up and flicked her fingers towards the tip of the cyan flying sword inserted into the snow lotus petals.

The cyan flying sword was immediately struck by lightning, and let out a wailing trembling sound, violently trembling and flying out from the petals, circling back into Gu Jie's hand.

As soon as Gu Jie held the hilt of the flying sword, he suddenly felt a strange itch in his palm, and when he looked down, he saw that the hilt of the flying sword was covered with pink crystal powder.

Before he could let go of the hilt of his sword, he saw a flash of light on the crystal powder, and there were colorful and gorgeous butterflies flying out of it, densely packed, and soon enveloped his whole person.

Gu Jie frowned, the armor runes on his body flashed, the blue light was great, and the slender cyan vines suddenly extended from the armor, surging in all directions densely, drowning those butterflies in an instant, strangling them all.

But at this moment, he was surprised to find that the white snow lotus and the woman in white in front of him had all disappeared, and even the breath fluctuations had all disappeared.

He twisted his body and looked around, and was shocked to find that there was nothing around him, and even the snow field under him had disappeared.

"Hmph, don't think about trapping me......" Gujie whispered.

With that, his eyes closed and his lips began to open and close silently.

With a low groan, a touch of green light lit up in the palm of his hand, and the runes on the armor on his body and the long sword in his hand brightened up at the same time, releasing a bright green light from it.

After a few moments, his eyes suddenly opened, and he slashed forward with his sword in both hands, and let out a loud cry from his mouth at the same time.

"Enlightenment"

I saw that in the void behind him, the blue light soared, and seven cyan sword shadows that were more than a thousand feet high, like a mountain peak toppling, smashed down towards the front with a powerful and unrivaled momentum.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The roar in the void continued, and seven sword shadows fell continuously, causing the entire space to violently vibrate.

However, as the violent shock gradually subsided, there was still nothing around it, and there was no change in the slightest.

The look in Gu Jie's eyes finally changed, and he realized that he seemed to be in a space of absolute nothingness.

"Gu Daoyou, I don't think there is any need for us to continue fighting. Now can you sit down and talk?" At this moment, the empty voice of the woman in white suddenly sounded in the surrounding void.

"What do you want to talk about?" asked Gujie.

"I already know what happened. This is just a mission in the alliance, they are just executors, and they have done nothing wrong. The woman in white said slowly.

"Joke! Kill me in vain Immortal Palace, a True Immortal Realm cultivator who is very likely to become a Heavenly Pill Master, and you actually say that you didn't do anything wrong? Wouldn't it be more wrong for me to seek revenge?" Gu Jie said angrily.

"Indeed, there is nothing wrong with what you have done, Gu Daoyou. But they kill one of you, and you ...... Killing the Impermanence Alliance, or the Candle Dragon Dao, is there more than one person, right?" the woman in white asked rhetorically.

"How can the lives of these people be compared to Pingyaozi?" Gu Jie sneered.

"That's where you stand. From my point of view, you've gone too far enough, it's time to stop. The woman in white shook her head and said in a calm tone.

"If the other two don't die, the matter will not be stopped. Gu Jie snorted coldly and said resolutely.

"I'm here to give face to the Northern Han Immortal Palace to say these words to you, if Your Excellency continues to don't know what to do, although I may not be able to really keep you, but fighting for a thousand years of retreat is enough to seal your twelve knots, which will greatly damage your strength. Having said that, your Excellency should not think that Asgard Palace would really be a golden immortal, and he would not hesitate to fall out with Candle Dragon Dao and the Impermanence Alliance at the same time. If that's the case, you won't be here alone. The woman in white's face finally sank.

When Gu Jie heard this, his expression froze and fell silent.

"The person you killed before, whether it is the Impermanence Alliance or the Candle Dragon Dao, will not be pursued again, and this matter is over. If you know the severity, leave the Ancient Cloud Continent quickly. ”

As the voice of the woman in white gradually became smaller, the sky suddenly opened above Gu Jie's head, and several huge petals bloomed in all directions, freeing him from it.

Then, the huge white snow lotus shone and disappeared with a bang.

Gu Jie hung in the air, and after a period of cloudy changes on his face, his figure finally blurred, turned into a blue light, and galloped towards the north.

Half a day later, there was an unknown mountain on Candle Dragon Road.

In the middle of the mountain, there is a large circular altar, surrounded by eight black stone pillars, on which stands a brazier, and I don't know what kind of grease burns inside, and it is lit up with a crimson light, illuminating the surrounding space.

Under the light of the fire, a tall man wearing a cyan deer's head mask and a black cloak was rubbing his hands together and walking back and forth on the altar, his steps were messy, and he looked very anxious.

It's Lin Jiu.

He already knew about the successive killings of the people of the Impermanence Alliance in the Candle Dragon Dao Region, and through the fragmentary news in the alliance, he also judged that it was the Golden Immortal Elder of the Northern Han Immortal Palace who had come to the door.

He originally wanted to use the excuse to stay away from the sect, hide in a secret realm that no one knows, and come back after cultivating the Golden Immortal, but when he was about to flee, he received a message from a high-ranking member of the Impermanence Alliance, telling him not to leave the Zhongming Mountain Range, and to wait for news here.

This has been the situation for nearly a year, but there is no news at all, which can't help but make him a little worried.

At this moment, in the center of the altar, a white light suddenly lit up, and a white snow lotus bloomed out of thin air, and the white light flashed, revealing a woman in white.

"Cloud ...... Lin San senior. Seeing this, Lin Jiu hurriedly screamed and greeted him.

"Gujie's matter is no longer a big deal. It's just that for nearly a thousand years, you won't set foot in the Cold Continent again. The woman in white said indifferently.

"Thank you Lin San seniors for breaking the siege. Lin Jiu hurriedly bowed to the end and said respectfully.

"I owe you a favor before, even if I repay it this time, if there is such a thing in the future, I will never do it again, you can do it yourself. The woman in white spoke indifferently and spoke.

After speaking, its figure turned into a white light and dispersed, and then disappeared.

Lin Jiu had to smile bitterly and salute the void.

Then, he took off the deer head mask on his face, and his body shrank suddenly, transforming into a short and fat man in a gorgeous gold robe, but it was Xiong Shan.

......

Outside the Guyun Continent, within the Dongliu Sea, there is a deep blue sea area that has not frozen.

Within the sea is a circular reef with a pitch-black trench deep beneath it.

In the depths of this trench, there is a ten-foot-high gray-white stone monument, covered with potholes of varying depths eroded by the sea, and covered with a layer of slippery black seaweed, making it look like a reef in the sea.

However, in fact, this gray-white stone tablet is the entrance to a cave secret realm under the jurisdiction of Candle Dragon Dao.

Within the secret realm, on the white stone square on a turquoise mountain peak hanging high in the void, Han Li held the railing with both hands and looked into the distance.

As far as the eye can see, the lonely peaks with dense vegetation and green colors are all suspended in the void without support, and there are no mountain roots touching the ground under each peak, only dense cyan vines hanging down like green silk, falling into the gray mist below.

This secret place is called 'Floating Mountain', and there are thousands of lonely peaks in the territory, on which the heaven and earth are full of vitality, and all kinds of superb elixirs grow, including the mountain cocoon god, Fulong ginseng and other medicines needed to refine a variety of earth pills.

Underneath these floating mountains lies a bottomless and foggy gully, in which many strange creatures with human shapes and gray complexions are hidden.

What is its real name, there is no classic record throughout the ages, and the people in the Candle Dragon Road will look at its shape and name it "White Ghost".

Normally, these white ghosts never leave the gully to come to the floating mountain, but every few years, the thick fog in the gully rises and overflows without warning, spreading towards the floating mountain above.

At this time, a large number of white ghosts will pour out from the depths of the ravine, rush into the floating mountain covered by mist, eat all kinds of elixirs on the mountain, and once they encounter the monks' obstruction, they will break out into conflict and start fighting.

The combat power of these white ghosts is not very strong, but there are many of them, and all of them are not afraid of death, and in several large-scale conflicts in history, neither side has been able to take advantage of anything.

Later, in order to block the white ghosts once and for all, a Dao master in the Candle Dragon Dao who was good at magic circles laid a strong prohibition under the floating mountain, which could prevent the rise of the dense fog, so as to completely put an end to the invasion of the white ghosts.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and people soon discovered that without the spread of dense fog, the output of elixirs on the Floating Mountain in the secret realm was decreasing year by year, and the elixirs such as the "Mountain Cocoon God" were directly extinct, and none of them could be seen.

At this time, the Candle Dragon Dao monk realized that there was a unique symbiotic system of its own in this secret realm, and a single trigger would affect the whole body.

After that, the Dao Master removed the forbidden magic circle, no longer blocking the rise of the dense fog, and left a ban on it, as long as the white ghost did not invade the floating mountain outside the thick fog, he would no longer fight with it.

However, in order to avoid accidents, in addition to a large number of refining void stage disciples and puppet servants, at least one True Immortal Realm elder must be stationed in the secret realm all year round.

Now, Han Li was the True Immortal Realm Elder stationed here.
