decisively ordered the second and third Yuanshen to stop their deduction array formation. They each used the soul-binding nets formed by the soul-binding gray lines to seal off the fire Jiao from all...Having bypassed several battlefields where the Golden Specter Lord fought with winged puppet, a dazzling and vibrant portal appeared before his eyes. Within that portal, there seemed to be a surge of spiritual energy at a higher level. On this plane, the most valuable thing for Lu Xia Tian was top-grade spirit crystals; he had never even seen supreme-grade spirit crystals.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

And on the other end of the portal, that ethereal essence was fearsomely powerful, at least the level of a top-grade spirit crystal, perhaps even surpassing it. Lu Xia Tian himself had already comprehended the Dao Realm of Mountains and Rivers, but due to the limitations of this world, he couldn't truly unleash the power of this realm. However, Lu Xia Tian's understanding of this realm became even deeper, just like a canal had been dug in advance, waiting for the water to flow and everything would naturally fall into place.

Although a door separated them, Lu Xia Tian felt an overwhelming surge of energy within him.

It seems that after passing this threshold, what lay before him was a whole new world. Lu Xia Tian forcibly suppressed the urge within him to pass through this threshold. He still had unfinished business in this realm, how could he leave alone

When Lu Xia Tian was surprised by the spiritual power from the other side of this faction, a faint blade energy had already arrived within dozens of meters outside his body.

Lu Xia tian's heart was startled. This sword qi came unexpectedly. Even though he had been distracted by the spiritual power from the other side of his sect, the opponent's attack being able to reach within tens of meters of him was already extraordinary.

Lu Xia Tian raised his hand and waved. A flame formed ripple went towards the blade light.

A powerful attack and a strong blast of flames met in mid-air. The blade's glow and the ripple of fire dissipated almost simultaneously.

At this moment, several blades of sword energy came slashing towards him. Lu Xia Tian looked around, but he couldn't see the opponent's true form.

“There’s some skill to that.” Lu Xiaoteng's lips curled upwards. For him, in this kind of magical duel, it didn't make much difference whether he used his eyes to distinguish or not. The opponent's attack was indeed strange. If the opponent remained motionless, Lu Xiaoteng would have a hard time detecting their presence for a while. If they really made a move, there would be traces to follow.

The opponent's attack was slightly stronger than the previous Winged Human puppet, but the difference wasn't significant. The only distinction was that their methods were more bizarre.

A wave of attacks came one after another, Lu Xiaoteng blocked them consecutively. Since he had already found the location of this sect's entrance, there was no need to stay in this Dong Kui Imperial Tomb any longer. While blocking the opponent's attacks, Lu Xiaoteng shifted outwards.

The fight here naturally attracted the attention of the scholar with a jade face and several ghost masters of Jin You. The several ghost masters of Jin You had been traveling through battle, just happening to encounter Lu Xia Tian who wanted to return.

"To meet King Lu Dan here again, what a coincidence." The scholar with a jade face said as he fought, his face gloomy.

"We agreed to go our separate ways before. You guys showing up behind me, aren't you trailing after me all the way" Lu Xia Tian said with displeasure in his eyes.

The scholar, who was as handsome as jade, almost spat out blood. They had been carefully avoiding and searching back and forth along the way, all to avoid facing Lu Xiaottian. Now, not only was Lu Xiaottian running ahead of them, but he was also turning the tables on them!

If Lu Xia Tian's strength wasn't superior to any of the three, and even capable of rivaling them when they fought together, the Scholar with a Jade Face would have already struck down the opponent with a single palm. How could he tolerate their continued presence

“Lu Danwang has misunderstood. Perhaps everyone originally had the same goal, just coincidentally walked the same path.” The heart of Jin You Guizhu was also extremely depressed, but whoever's fist was bigger was right. Although they had the same doubts in their hearts, following behind others was an undeniable fact.

“The puppets here are ferocious in strength and possess strange methods. Their defense is surprisingly powerful. Even our attacks fall on them like a drop in the ocean. Although we don't know what Lu Dan Wang’s intentions are, we must eliminate this obstacle. Why don't Lu Dan Wang join forces with us to first eliminate these two puppets” said the Four-Eyed Golden Hawk.

"Oh I merely stumbled into this place by accident, and I'm unaware of any need for an alliance." Lu Xia Tian saw the colorful portal after which, a general idea came to his mind. At this moment, he feigned ignorance.

The jade-faced scholar and Jin Yougui's master exchanged glances, their eyes flickering for a moment as if doubting the truthfulness of Lu Xiaoteng's words.

"It seems we lack a sufficient foundation for cooperation. Well then, I shan't stay and obstruct your path. I wish you all fortune in finding treasures." Lu Xia Tian chuckled with a smile as his body drifted backward.

Even though the powerful figures hidden in the shadows kept making their moves, they were unable to hold back Lu Xiaotian even for a moment. The young scholars, now facing this situation, felt a bit helpless again. Compared to the puppet they were currently fighting against, the one that Lu Xiaotian was battling had equal strength, and it also possessed a hidden form supernatural power, making it elusive like a ghost. If Lu Xiaotian left, the immense pressure would undoubtedly fall entirely on them.

Before they could even react, Lu Xia Tian had already vanished into the distance. Whoosh whoosh whoosh, attacks arrived as scheduled, several streaks of sword energy slashing towards the young scholar with the jade face.

“With these two puppets blocking the way, even if the three of us join forces, we can still eliminate them. Now that we've discovered this, let's withdraw.” The Scholar with a Jade Face sighed and said.

“That’s the only way.” Jin You Guizhu and Si Mu Jin Hao Bird nodded in succession. They had been on guard against Lu Xiaotian a thousand times before, but they hadn't expected Lu Xiaotian to leave so quickly, withdrawing from them with such speed. He didn't even give them a chance to think about his methods.

Although the Winged Human Puppets and the puppets hidden in the shadows were formidable, they were still unable to completely defeat the three Jade-Faced Scholars.

Three of them fought their way through, after a fierce battle, they finally managed to shake off the pursuers. It wasn't that they completely drove them away, but the winged puppets and the hidden puppets had fixed guard zones, seemingly around those colorful portals. Even Jin Gui, who was freed from the enemy's attacks, let out a long sigh of relief.

Although we didn't achieve our goal this time, we still gained something. When we are well-prepared later, let's explore this imperial tomb again.

Leaving the Imperial Tomb, outside was a vast and turbulent ocean. The scholar's jade-like face suddenly sharpened with intensity.

The Golden Phantom Master and the Four-Eyed Golden Hawk Bird, two unknown entities, followed the scholar's gaze. They saw Lu Xiaoteng standing calmly on the surging waves, surrounded by flying seabirds and circling fish, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.

"Lu Danwang, what a coincidence, to run into you here again," the scholar with a jade face said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"It's unfortunate that I've been waiting here especially for you two to come out." Lu Xia Tian stood with his hands behind his back, the subtle aura of Daoist intent on his body vanished, and the few seabirds circling him and the fish swimming beneath him seemed to receive some kind of will. In an instant, the seabirds soared high into the sky, and the fish flicked their tails, each disappearing in different directions.condition, there was probably nothing that could save her life. If it were anyone else, they would have made the same decision.” 。Then, Lao Lu Daoist led me away from the cave dwelling. 。Yue Yu bowed...
