When the purple robed elder with the sword sheathe appeared, Lee Xun could not help but be startled, he could not even see the depth of the other party's strength, then this elder's identity was obvious, a Heaven Rank Peak expert.
Seeing that the old man did not seem to have any intention to fight, and had even smiled and nodded to himself, Lee Xun cupped his fists and said: "Kid Lee Xun greets senior, may I know senior's name?"
"Hehe, this old man is Tuoba Gui. Good move, very good move. Come with me, there are too many people here who are unrelated. " After Tuoba Gui finished speaking, he flew towards the west.
Lee Xun quickly caught up. This was the first time he was speaking face to face with another Heaven Rank Peak Ranker other than the old man.
Some people thought that Lee Xun was not a human, but instead from the Three Sacred Clans. Some people thought that Lee Xun was an old monster who did not want to appear like a young man to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, but of course, they thought that Lee Xun was a genius or that he was the main character. The reason for these people was simple.
Lee Xun followed Tuoba Gui and flew for who knows how far. Along the way, they passed by more than ten cities, and in the end, they arrived at a snowy mountain peak that was over seven thousand meters above sea level.
"Lee Xun, I'm sorry to have let you fly so far away from my old man. "I like to be quiet. I like to chat with people on this snowy peak." Tuoba Gui laughed.
"Senior must be joking." Lee Xun could already tell from the voice that Tuoba Gui wanted to be friends with him, otherwise he wouldn't have brought him to his favorite place.
"Call me Big Brother Tuoba. I can see that you will soon enter the Heaven Rank realm, at that time, even I probably won't dare to say that I have the confidence to take you down. We who have reached the level of a cultivator, respect the strong. Especially since you also have an indestructible body, so your age is just an illusion. "
When Lee Xun saw Tuoba Gui, he could already tell that his physique was that of a metal attribute Spiritual Body, but he had also heard Guihai Jingyun and Shao Qian'er calling him master, so he asked, "You are Brother Jing Yun's master, how can I call you brother?"
"Hehe, let's talk about our own group. You must know that there aren't many people in our group. Thousands of years from now, all kinds of things will change. Only people like us will be able to chat with each other. My three disciples also don't know if they'll be able to join our circle in the future. Tuoba Gui let out a deep sigh, brimming with an endless sense of belonging.
"Brother Tuoba, you must know quite a few people who possess Spiritual Body. I wonder how many of them are there?"
"I only know people in their fifties, and there should be some more. Adding them all up, there definitely wouldn't be more than a hundred."
Lee Xun nodded, and felt that this number was indeed lacking. There were no less than a hundred billion people in the Sword Soul Continent, and since the ancient era, tens of thousands of years had passed. Furthermore, thinking about how over a dozen Holy Maiden s of Jiuyou Profound Sect were considered indestructible, it showed just how powerful they were.
Lee Xun now understood that as long as there weren't any conflicts of interest, it was very easy for people like him and Tuoba Gui to become friends. After all, there weren't many people in this group.
"Lee Xun, I wonder who is your master, to be able to teach such a monstrous disciple like you?" When Tuoba Gui said this, he also revealed a bit of envy.
Lee Xun felt that Tuoba Gui truly wanted to interact with him, and he did not want to deceive him, so he smiled: "My master Baili Hong, Senior might not know him, and it has been many years since he showed his face at Sword Soul Continent."
Tuoba Gui laughed when he heard it, and said: "So you are that little kid that was saved by wolves, hahahaha, this is really too interesting, after not seeing you for twenty years, you have actually grown to such a stage."
"My brother knows my teacher, and he even saw me?" Lee Xun could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart, this world was really small.
Tuoba Gui nodded his head, "Then it's only a matter of time before the barrier is passed to the rest of us. As long as you continue to cultivate, it won't be difficult for you to gain the recognition of the Underwater Goblins. I remember that it took me about seventy years. I often go to the Swordsoul Island to find Spiritual Treasure, and there are a few precious Spiritual Treasure that only exist in the Swordsoul Island. Once, you unintentionally discovered an existence of strong Heaven Rank Peak in the Swordsoul Island, so you went to have a look for a while, and that person was your master. Back then, I mentioned that I wanted to take you in as my disciple, but he just didn't want to. Tuoba Gui shook his head, his words sounding more and more like a child's.
Lee Xun and Tuoba Gui got more and more excited the more they chatted, and in the end, they still couldn't resist to ask about the Jiuyou Profound Sect.
"Old brother, I heard from Qingfeng that you want to recommend him to go to the Jiuyou Profound Sect. Could it be that you are a member of the Jiuyou Profound Sect?"
"Haha, you really can endure it. I've heard your conversation with Qingfeng. I've been waiting for you to ask."
was not surprised that his conversation with Qingfeng was overheard by Tuoba Gui. Lee Xun laughed: "Since old brother knows about this, then I'll give a move for this kid."
Well, it's really hard on you. I'm afraid you don't know the meaning of the Nine Nether Holy Maiden. If the eighteen guards are said to be the guardians of the Nine Nether Holy Maiden, then the Nine Nether Holy Maiden is the guardian of the entire Sword Soul Continent. You should know that the Demonic Beast and some other ancient races are stronger than us humans by nature, and they do not die naturally either. Although their cultivation is extremely difficult, the chances of them being able to produce the strongest are still much higher than humans. Jiuyou Profound Sect was precisely created to restrict those existences. And the reason the Jiuyou Profound Sect is so strong is because it is supported by a clan from a higher plane called Yan You.
Lee Xun could understand all the words Tuoba Gui had said before, and only the last sentence of his made Lee Xun feel that it was inconceivable.
"Superior plane?" Yanyou Clan? "
In the upper realm, you can think of it as another world. In essence, it's about the same as our Sword Soul Continent, but it's much easier for the people there to cultivate than it is for us. However, due to the restrictions of nature, the moment they arrived at Sword Soul Continent, their strength would drop to the limit. In other words, within the Sword Soul Continent, there were limits to how strong they could be. However, the price for thinking of coming here was also very big, so no one would come to the Sword Soul Continent. Holy Maiden would normally be sent to the higher plane to cultivate their Yanyou Clan. After passing the trial, they would return to the Sword Soul Continent to exercise their role as the guardian until they found their next successor. When the Nine Serenities Holy Maiden stepped down from her position, there were no longer any restrictions. She could choose to stay behind, or choose to go to a higher plane. As for Yanyou Clan, their strength can only be considered average. They only control three continents, including our Sword Soul Continent, and some powerful families can easily control dozens of lower realms like ours. As for how many lower realms we have, I don't know.
"Old brother, after saying so much, you still haven't told me what to do."
"I've already explained it very clearly, and you still don't understand?" Tuoba Gui laughed.
Lee Xun thought for a while and immediately understood what Tuoba Gui meant, and said: "You mean that I should look for a way from the higher planes?"
Tuoba Gui nodded his head and laughed: "That's right, if you were to have a secret relationship with someone else, you would be hunted down by the Yanyou Clan, and the requirements to choose the Holy Maiden s are extremely strict. The position of the Holy Maiden s has been vacant for several hundred years already, so you shouldn't even think about finding another successor. The time that I have to stay in the Holy Maiden is the shortest, around 1100 years, I am one of the eighteen personal guards of the Holy Maiden. "
"Old brother, why are you telling me all these? Why do I feel like you really want me to bring Qing back?" Lee Xun also had a question in his heart. Logically speaking, since Tuoba Gui was a member of the Jiuyou Profound Sect, he should have protected the benefits of the Jiuyou Profound Sect.
"Among my eighteen guards this time, other than me, there's still one more left alive, called the Zuo Qiu Key. I think only the two of us in the Jiuyou Profound Sect have this thought. Our Holy Maiden's Yan Fei'er's situation is similar to yours, Qing's, but she wasn't as lucky as you, her lover only lived to be 360 and died. We watched her grieve for more than a thousand years, and it was better when her lover wasn't dead. The battle in which she died was actually a battle in which she sought her own death. You wouldn't be able to understand how powerful she was right now. I was the first to know that you were lucky. If those protectors had heard, I'm afraid your little life would not have been saved. "
"Lee Xun finally understood, which was why he said that. Old brother, then how can I go to the Divine Soul Continent? "
"The Jiuyou Profound Sect does have a dimensional teleportation formation, but you definitely won't have the chance to use it. If you want to use a dimensional teleportation array, you have to go to an ancient ruin and search for it. Almost every ancient ruin has one. In the ancient times, Sword Soul Continent were not controlled by Yanyou Clan, but by a public lower plane of existence. However, for some unknown reason, a great battle broke out fifty thousand years ago, causing our Sword Soul Continent to hurt our vitality. Thus, the difficulty of our cultivation increased greatly. Therefore, Sword Soul Continent were considered an abandoned lower plane, and became Yanyou Clan in the end. However, most of the dimensional teleportation arrays within the ancient ruins were destroyed. Some of the ones that could be used might not be stable either. "Thus, without absolute power, you can't take the risk. You have to walk a very long road, and when you can defeat me in one move, you can go find the spatial teleportation formation."
"Old brother, stop joking with me. Defeating you in one move, don't say I can't, even if I can, how long will it take?" Lee Xun didn't even know Tuoba Gui's strength at the moment, and this was enough to prove how strong Tuoba Gui was. felt that there was hope in defeating him since he was still young, but the problem was the time.
"Lee Xun, the reason why I helped you was because I thought that you would succeed. Back then, we also wanted to help Fei'er's Holy Maiden lover, but he didn't have that talent. Even with our secret help, she's only at the intermediate Heaven Rank level. But you are different. Not only are you extremely talented, you also have time. If you really want to be together with Holy Maiden Qing, you shouldn't think too highly of time. I have seen Qing before, from her eyes, I believe that as long as you are willing to work hard, no matter how long it takes, she will wait for you. But you must also pay attention to this brat, don't get yourself involved with the women around you, be careful of taking revenge on your own. " Tuoba Gui laughed.
Hearing Tuoba Gui's teasing, Lee Xun also felt a little embarrassed, there were indeed too many wives by his side. Senior, please trust me, I truly love Qing. "
"Of course I believe that. After living for so many years, I am still confident in my ability. Take this and see if you can open it. " Tuoba Gui took off the sword sheathe on his back and handed it over to Lee Xun.
"Old brother, this must be your beloved item. How can I accept it?"
"Hehe, the things you love are pretty good, but whether you want to give it to me or not will depend on your own fate." This was something that Holy Maiden Fei'er gave me back then, but I was unable to tame it. I had to feed it blood essence in critical moments to barely be able to use it. Using it once would require me to rest for three years, and it was also a burden. "You can transfer your soul force to open it."
Hearing Tuoba Gui's words, Lee Xun gave it a try. When a thread of soul force entered, the Sword Sheath immediately disappeared, and a black crescent moon shaped, and a milky-white ball-shaped weapon appeared, revolving around Lee Xun. After only three rounds, Lee Xun could feel the "Glacial Lotus Fruit" and "Cold Mist Illusory Flame Bead" in his body resonating with the two weapons respectively, and once again, sent out a soul pull, causing the two weapons to enter his body. The crescent moon weapon entered the "Netherflame Ice Spirit Bead" and the ball-shaped weapon entered the "Illusory Fire Spirit Orb".
Seeing that, Tuoba Gui was both surprised and happy, and said: "Haha, so it is like that. Lee Xun, this is the 'Sun Moon Protector', the first time I saw you in the side courtyard, the 'Sun Moon Protector' had an excited feeling, but at that time, I still wanted to observe you, so I didn't see you right away. Today, my two old friends have finally found their master. Sun Moon Protector was a pair of defensive divine tools. In the future, if you encounter any situations where you are attacked, summon them out and they will automatically provide protection for you. However, I have to remind you to use them as little as possible, so you have to focus on your own strength. I gave them to you just to give you more power to protect yourself. "
Lee Xun was also extremely surprised, a Divine Guardian Equipment that could resonate with the Supreme Spiritual Treasure, as for the definition of a Divine Equipment, Lee Xun already understood from the inheritance of the Divine Bow, only then would it be considered a genuine Divine Equipment. Although Lee Xun did not know what an artifact tribulation was, he knew that this set of rules was like cultivating to the Human Rank, Earth Rank, and Heaven Rank through a body tempering test. There was also the Ten-thousand-year Spiritual Treasure's spirit tribulation, which was also the rules of this world.
