Xu Qing fully believed in the warnings from the Liu Ding and Liu Jia.
Not knowing where the danger came from, I became more cautious.
When arriving at the secret realm for assessment, Xu Qing finally saw another figure. Judging from his attire, he should be a member of Dasheng.
Two people were guarding the gate of the assessment secret realm, similar to the last time when he entered the assessment secret realm and Li Pingan and the other two were guarding outside the door. It should be that one of them entered the assessment secret realm.
When Xu Qing discovered the two people guarding the secret realm of the assessment.
The two men also noticed him at the same time, and a hint of inexplicable depth flashed across their eyes.
"You are the Taoist priest?"
When the two men saw that Xu Qing was wearing a Taoist robe, they did not get hostile right away. Instead, they bowed and asked in a gentle voice.
"I am Jingdu from Yuanfu Temple." Xu Qing did not lose his manners and bowed to the two of them.
"So you are Taoist Priest Jingdu from Yuanfu Temple. I have heard of your great name for a long time."
When the two heard this title, their faces darkened.
After the last time the Dragon Palace was opened, when Xu Qing defeated more than a dozen geniuses alone, the name of Taoist Master Jingdu of Yuanfu Temple has become very famous among the human cultivators and demons who came to the Dragon Palace.
Later, people began to delve deeper into the matter.
It was discovered that Elder Jingdu had made a great name for himself in the Imperial Capital before this.
He wrote three peerless poems in Mingyue Tower and, while serving as the inspector of the Beiji Exorcism Court, he advocated the capture of Prince Jing and the princess, and led a team to raid the homes of several princes.
It was only because of the blockade of the Imperial Capital that the news disappeared after a while. Only the children of the big clans like them who had information channels could know something about it.
"Who are you?" Xu Qing looked at the two people in front of him inconspicuously.
The two of them clearly exuded the aura of the Five Elements, and they should be practitioners of the Five Elements Law.
The Five Elements Method is both simple and profound.
It is simple because anyone can learn it, and it is the most common practice in the spiritual world.
But it is easy to learn but difficult to master.
Once the Five Elements Method is practiced to a high level, all kinds of mysteries will appear beyond imagination.
Like Xu Qing's five internal organs and five elements talisman, it can rely on the "five elements evolution" to create an independent space, which is the prototype of the law domain.
If we go one step further, there will be no problem in forming a small world.
"My junior brother and I are disciples of the Five Elements Sect. You can call me Liu Yangming, and my junior brother is called Shi Yichen."
"Yi Chen greets Taoist Master Jing Du." The junior brother mentioned by Liu Yangming said respectfully.
Xu Qing knew that the Five Elements Sect was a righteous sect in Dasheng.
It is not one of the best, but it is also a first-class sect.
At the same time, the sect has a good reputation. Apart from an evil cultivator who was on the wanted list of Dasheng, there have been no other bad deeds.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Liu and Fellow Daoist Shi from the Five Elements Sect. I'm honored to meet you." Xu Qing praised them with a smile, and then turned the topic to the secret realm of assessment behind them.
"My senior brother is in this secret assessment realm, and we two junior brothers are here to protect him." Liu Yangming replied.
Xu Qing was not surprised to hear this.
He is not the only one in the secret assessment realm. If he can enter, others can naturally enter as well.
Although Xu Qing was thinking about the news about the long sword that contained the destiny of the previous dynasty, he could only suppress it at the moment.
He then turned to ask why there seemed to be fewer people in the Dragon Palace.
"Master Jingdu doesn't know?" Liu Yangming asked in surprise.
"Did something happen in the Dragon Palace?" Xu Qing shook his head. "I was trapped in a small cave for more than a day after entering the Dragon Palace. I just came out."
Seeing that Xu Qing's expression did not seem fake, Liu Yangming immediately explained:
"Master Jingdu, you may not know that the treasure house of the Dragon Palace was opened yesterday!"
"Treasure house?" Xu Qing raised his eyebrows.
According to legend, the treasure house is the place where the Dragon Palace stores various treasures. Any item that comes out of it is a rare treasure in the world.
No wonder he saw so few people along the way.
Now that the treasure house of the Dragon Palace has been opened, everyone will come over to take a look.
"The Dragon Palace's treasure house has been opened. The human cultivators and demons who entered the Dragon Palace are all trying to get in like crazy."
“Everyone thinks they are lucky and maybe they can pick up one or two treasures.”
"Doesn't this mean that the entire Dragon Palace is empty, with no one to be seen?"
"I understand." Xu Qing nodded. "Everyone enters the Dragon Palace for opportunities and treasures. This greatest opportunity is right in front of us. I will always feel unwilling if I don't try it."
"That's the truth." Liu Yangming smiled and said, "Master Jingdu, why don't you give it a try?"
Xu Qing shook his head.
His main mission in entering the Dragon Palace this time was to find out the details of the long sword that contained the destiny of the previous dynasty.
So we need to go to this secret assessment realm again.
It’s never too late to go to the treasure house later.
What's more, Xu Qing has always believed that the higher the return, the higher the risk. The treasure house contains most of the treasures of the Dragon Palace, so it is impossible that there will be no corresponding dangers.
"Master Jingdu is not planning to go?" Liu Yangming was stunned.
He didn't expect Xu Qing to react like this.
Upon hearing this news, shouldn’t normal cultivators rush over in a hurry, fearing that if they were a step late, the treasures would be taken away?
"I'm not going for now. By the way, Fellow Daoist Liu and Fellow Daoist Shi, have you met other disciples of my Yuanfu Temple? For example, my senior sister Jingqing."
People from other sects may not be able to recognize all of Yuanfu Temple’s disciples.
However, Senior Sister Jingqing's name is known to almost everyone. During the decades that she suppressed the killing power of the magic talisman, she traveled all over the world and dealt with most of the sects.
In the cultivation world, as long as one has a certain status or is more concerned about rumors, everyone knows her.
"Senior Jingqing, I seem to have seen her enter the treasure house before." Liu Yangming said ambiguously: "Senior Jingqing seemed to have brought a group of disciples from Yuanfu Temple into the treasure house."
Xu Qing frowned slightly and stared straight at Liu Yangming.
"What's wrong, Taoist Jingdu?" Liu Yangming's heart skipped a beat. "I really saw Senior Jingqing leading a group of Yuanfu Temple disciples into the treasure house."
"You seem to want me to enter the treasure house?" Xu Qing's eyes flashed with something strange.
"Hey, Master Jingdu, what are you talking about? I didn't mean that. I just..."
at this time.
call--
A slight sound of water waves came into Xu Qing's ears.
It was a very common sound of flowing water, but Xu Qing inexplicably felt a chill on his back.
In a flash, two illusory arms appeared and grabbed a flying needle that was shot towards Xu Qing's neck.
"Why?" Xu Qing looked at Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen with a serious expression. "I think there is no grudge between you two. This is just the first time we meet."
"Besides, there is no opportunity to fight for here, why would you kill him secretly?"
At the moment when two illusory arms from the guardian deity appeared.
Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen's bodies suddenly turned into water and dispersed, keeping a safe distance from Xu Qing.
The figure of Jiazi God appeared behind Xu Qing.
Liu Yangming narrowed his eyes at Jiazi God and said, "Is this the divine image? I heard that you have six of them. What an enviable talent."
"Answer my question." Xu Qingmei's spiritual consciousness swept out, and the figure of Jiaxu God appeared behind Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen. Two purple gold sky-shaking hammers smashed down fiercely, causing a huge wave.
This is one of the abilities gained when the talisman is upgraded to the "Command of the Six Dings and Six Jias, Red Chaos Talisman" -
The natal guardian deity can appear at will within the range covered by Xu Qing's spiritual consciousness.
Feeling the fierce power coming from above their heads, Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen's expressions changed slightly, and their bodies turned into water streams and dispersed again.
There was a bang.
The two purple-gold air-shaking hammers of the Jiaxu God smashed to the ground.
The water flow vibrated, and Liu Yangming's figure emerged from the water:
"As expected of a divine being, its power is truly astonishing."
"However, my Five Elements Sect practices the Five Elements Great Escape. Although my attacks may not be that strong, my ability to save my life and escape is definitely top-notch in the world."
"It won't be that easy for you to take us down."
"Brother, want to play with him?" Shi Yichen said with a strange smile.
Although he was unable to kill Xu Qing, he felt extremely happy to be able to tease this genius among geniuses, whom he could only look up to.
"Really? I hope you can still laugh next."
Xu Qing didn't care about Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen's outrageous remarks.
As his mind moved, Ding Chou God and Ding Hai God appeared at the same time.
"Two more?" Liu Yangming sneered, "Sure enough, the rumors are true. You really have six divine images."
"But it's useless even if you have a few more."
"If it was the complete form, I would immediately retreat, but can you, a fourth level cultivator, activate it?"
Xu Qing said nothing.
Words are too empty, let’s use actions to make these two guys shut up.
Ding Chou God poked the ground with the tip of the Ruyi trident in his hand.
An invisible wave emanated from the Ruyi Trident.
The surrounding water stopped flowing as the waves swept past.
The smiles on Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen's faces froze instantly, and their bodies suddenly became unable to move, like ordinary people stuck in a quagmire.
The Five Elements Escape Technique that they were so proud of was actually suppressed?
A mocking smile appeared on Xu Qing's lips.
If it were somewhere else, he might need to spend some effort to deal with the Five Elements Escape, but this is Dragon Palace.
The Dragon Palace is filled with water.
The Ruyi Trident of Dingchou God has the ability to control water.
As long as you control the water here, it won't be so easy to perform water escape techniques.
Then, God Ding Hai raised the glazed mirror in his hand.
The mirror light swept down, freezing the bodies and souls of Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen at the same time.
Now it would be a pipe dream for them to move.
Xu Qing took out the "Soul-binding and Body-imprisoning Talisman" and shot the talisman into the two people.
Once you are hit by the soul-binding talisman, no matter how powerful the magic is, it will be useless unless you have great supernatural powers.
Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen emerged from the water and fell to the ground with pale faces, their pupils full of disbelief.
"Why do you want to kill me? Can you tell me now?" Xu Qing stared at the two Five Elements Sect members in front of him, "I have no grudges against you, and Yuanfu Temple also has no hatred against the Five Elements Sect."
"It can even be said that the two families often interact with each other."
"You have murderous intentions towards me for no reason, and you also want to trick me into going to the treasure house in the Dragon Palace. What is your intention?"
"What's your intention?" Liu Yangming stiffened his neck. "I have no hatred against you, and Yuanfu Temple and Wuxing Sect have no hatred either. Can't we just simply want to kill you?"
"Okay." Xu Qing nodded.
Humans are extremely complex creatures, and sometimes they can create grudges even when there is no hatred.
For example, because of jealousy and envy.
Liu Yangming didn't expect Xu Qing to accept his statement so easily, and his expression was a little stunned for a moment.
"If you kill someone, you will be killed. Since you just want to kill me, you can die now."
The four guardian gods behind Xu Qing raised their weapons high.
Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen's faces turned extremely pale.
Wait, isn’t this too quick and easy?
Shi Yichen's eyes flashed with fear, and he quickly shouted loudly to stop them: "No, we don't just want to kill you, there are other people who want to kill you!"
Is there anyone else trying to kill me?
Xu Qing frowned.
Flood, one of the eight major disasters outside the Great Wall?
The first thing Xu Qing thought of was this. This guy was the one who had a grudge against him recently.
Of course, there may be other people, such as some forces that do not want to see Yuanfu Temple continue to grow.
With the potential Xu Qing has shown now, he is undoubtedly another Taoist priest of Qingxu. It is normal for some people to have the idea of stifling the development of Yuanfu Temple.
"What do you mean? Explain it clearly!" Xu Qing's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Shi Yichen stammered, "If I tell you, will you let us go?"
"No." Xu Qing shook his head, "But I will hand you over to your Five Elements Sect to deal with it on your own."
Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen fell strangely silent after hearing this.
Just from this performance, Xu Qing could see a lot of things.
Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen should be considered geniuses in the Five Elements Sect. Unless they commit serious crimes, the Five Elements Sect will probably protect them.
There will definitely be severe punishment within the sect, but your life can be saved.
After all, the current Dragon Palace does not have the same set of default rules as the outside world.
It doesn’t matter who kills whom here, even if it’s unreasonable.
Of course, disciples of major sects generally would not take each other's lives easily. The personal soldiers under the flood disaster leader last time had told Xu Qing about some tacit rules among the major sects here.
It’s just that Xu Qing didn’t comply.
"It seems that your problem is more troublesome than I thought." Xu Qing said calmly, without any emotional ups and downs. "Colluding with demons? No, colluding with demons won't make you silent."
"You were trying to lure me to the Dragon Palace treasure house."
"Could it be that you have set up a trap with some people, using the Dragon Palace's treasure house as bait to murder other people who enter the Dragon Palace?"
Shi Yichen's pupils trembled.
He didn't expect that Xu Qing could guess a part of the truth through such few clues.
"It seems that I guessed right." Xu Qing understood as soon as he saw the expression, "But this can't explain why you are in this secret assessment realm."
Compared with other opportunities in Dragon Palace, the assessment secret realm is just a small opportunity.
At present, more and more areas of Dragon Palace are open, so such an opportunity which is troublesome and does not yield many treasures is not worth much.
Xu Qing didn't think it was wrong just now, but now thinking about it, it is really unreasonable for Liu Yangming and Shi Yichen to appear here.
Think of this.
Xu Qing's face suddenly darkened: "Are there any disciples from Yuanfu Temple in your hands?" (End of this chapter)
