mind was racing, and Hecate had now fallen victim to the poison, unconscious on the ground, her life hanging in the balance. No one had time for her right now; the silver-winged centipede was already...As for Yin Xiazi being Xiang Qingcheng's master, his methods were no less than Xiang Kuang's. As a famous cultivator who had been renowned for many years, Lu Xiaotian didn't believe that this person had no backup plan at all. In the eyes of outsiders, Xiang Nanming was extremely terrifying, but Lu Xiaotian didn't think... 。After Dai Xiangcheng was promoted to a great cultivator, together with Lu Wushuang and himself, there would be three of them. Even if they encountered a powerful expert like Xiao Jinglei, they wouldn't necessarily be able to defeat him, but at least they could protect themselves. 。And he should also have a formidable Yuan Ying-level corpse refining skill. 。

Staying put, he couldn't move even if the opponent wanted to. After some more time had passed, when "Ten Transformations Refining Essence Technique" was cultivated to a deeper level, his confidence would naturally grow.

"You promised" Xu Qin's face was tinged with both joy and surprise. 。"Outside the Nether Prison, didn't I already agree" Lu Xia Tian asked curiously. 。This is different. 。Okay, if you don't have anything else to do here, let's go together. 。Xu Qin was delighted. She hadn't expected Lu Xia Tian to agree so readily. According to An Xin Cheng, this guy could be very cunning when facing an enemy. 。"Sir, is there something" Yu Ya received Lu Xiaoteng's transmission and came straight over. 。“I’m going to be gone for a while, at least several months. When you get back, tell Lu Wushuang to keep an eye on that ghost cultivator for me. If he tries to run, just kill him. You don’t need to inform me.” 。Lu Xiaodao 。"Alright, Luo Qian, Niu Kun and a few others are also here. Just one ghost cultivator, how much of a wave can he possibly make" 。Yu Ya responded. 。“Little Qiao and Xiang Hua have caused you trouble on a daily basis. " 。“Rest assured, sir.” 。I will definitely take good care of them. 。Yu nodded, among the many young cultivator she was the one with the lowest cultivation and weakest strength. 。But the fact that Lu Xia Tian could still assign her tasks meant she was still somewhat useful. If she had nothing to do, Yu Ya would probably just end up overthinking things. 。Lu Xia Tian nodded. Some things are not necessarily better with higher cultivation, at least when it comes to arranging these trivial matters, others may not be able to do as well as Ya Hao. 。Under the sunlight, the surrounding mist was bathed in a beautiful glow. 。Surrounded by verdant peaks, cranes and divine birds chirped their melodious songs. 。Streams flow in the mountains, and pine trees sway in the wind. 。It was Lu Xia Tian. Even when he entered this mountain range, he couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort throughout his body. 。"Nine curves, the jade-green water is crystal clear..." 。"The City of Tilting is a ghost-like spirit residing in the water!" Lu Xia Tian felt a wave of comfort throughout his body, but his expression changed drastically. 。Although I had guessed beforehand that Xiang Qingcheng's breakthrough might be restricted and require advance preparation, not every location would work. Otherwise, Xiang Qingcheng could have broken through and returned before this, instead of waiting until after Xiang Du faced the current predicament. 。After all, she had someone protecting her outside. She didn't have to face the underhanded tactics of a powerful figure like Xiang Nanming, so it was difficult for anything unexpected to happen. 。And in this situation, Xiang Qingcheng still chose to return, it must be because of certain conditions that restricted her from easily breaking through her current realm outside. 。> I never expected that Xiang Qingcheng would be the Yushui Lingti recorded in ancient books. 。This kind of spirit's daily cultivation speed is not slow, but every time it breaks through a realm, it's like walking through a ghost gate. 。The situation was extremely dangerous, and the cultivator's usual aura was as cold and still as a deep, silent pool. 。In this mountainous region where peaks rise and fall, atop a solitary peak that wasn't particularly tall, in front of a cave halfway up the mountainside, inside a small pavilion, an elderly woman with silver hair lay half-reclining on a stone chair, closing her eyes and meditating. 。Meanwhile, Xiang Qingcheng sat cross-legged beside him, seeming to be deep in thought, her expression a mixture of worry and uncertainty. 。But she suddenly realized that someone had come. She glanced sideways and saw Xu Qin and Lu Xiaoteng coming together, one after the other. 。Xiang Qingcheng's face, which had been filled with anxiety just a moment ago, suddenly vanished. In its place was a look of pure joy. 。Xiang Qingcheng hurriedly got up and looked at Lu Xiaodao, "You're here" 。As your ascension to the rank of Great Cultivator is imminent, how could I possibly miss such a grand occasion 。"Lu Xia Tian smiled faintly." 。"Keke, I laid everything bare, without any concealment. It's just that this Mr. Dong agreed before he even thought about it, leaving my prepared speech useless." 。"Xu Qin shrugged, and with a wink, she leaned towards Xiang Qingcheng." 。"I haven't broken through yet" 。Xiang Qingcheng's face flushed slightly, but the joy in her eyes was impossible to hide. Whether or not to invite Lu Xiaotiān, she had hesitated for a long time. At first, she rushed to the Black Prison because she learned that Xiang Kuáng was temporarily unable to leave Xingye, and Xiang Yuze very likely leaked this news to Xiao Jing Lei. 。This is why I rushed to the Black Prison to remind Lu Xia Tian. 。... But she herself knew her situation well. Besides Master Yin Xiazi and Xu Qin, the only people she could trust were Xiang Kuang and the young man in front of her, Lu Xiaotian. 。Given Xu Qin's capabilities, she is not yet strong enough to help her. Xiang Kuang in Xingye... 。< Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire > 。And her master, Yin Xiazi, was old and frail, unlikely to live to see the moment of her breakthrough. 。So, outside the Black Prison, Xiang Qingcheng unconsciously said something to Lu Xia Tian, but after she spoke, she hesitated a little. 。After all, we are all in the same boat inside Shi Yao Cave. We don't need to worry too much about our interests. 。Now that I'm in Xiangdou, things have become much more complicated. And at this time, I still have to face Xiang Nanming, the top cultivator among the royal family. 。When Xiang Qingcheng was afraid to tell Lu Xiaotien the specifics, he would hesitate. Even a little hesitation would be an irreparable rift between them. So, when she got halfway through her sentence, Xiang Qingcheng stopped. 。Instead, let Xu Qin go. 。Even if there's hesitation, and one doesn't see it, perhaps the feeling of disappointment would lessen a lot. 。At this moment, hearing Xu Qin say this, Xiang Qingcheng suddenly felt as if something had filled her heart. 。Since I've already come here, you must become a great cultivator and break through. After that, together we won't fear anything from the South Ming... 。"If I don't have someone to help me, what am I supposed to do when facing both Xiao Jinglei and Xiang Nanming" Lu Xiaoteng shrugged and then bowed respectfully to the kindly old woman with silver hair, "I presume this must be Yin Xiaozi." 。"Thank you, young friend, for coming. My apprentice usually appears aloof and distant to strangers, but it seems your ability to judge people is far superior to mine." 。The old woman smiled faintly, sizing up Lu Xia Tian with her eyes. Her face held a hint of approval. 。“This mountain range is exactly the blessed land I chose for Qing Cheng. Unexpectedly, you came and saw through my disciple’s ethereal water spirit.” 。Qin Cheng once told me that you, my young friend, are a master of formations. At first, I was skeptical, but now it seems your depth of understanding is even greater than I imagined. 。"I've only seen it mentioned briefly in ancient texts. Since you called me here, I assume you have a complete plan in mind." 。Lu Xiaotian stated directly. 。 an enemy, Lu Xia Tian hasn't given it much thought for the moment.”"That's right, with Dongfang Daoist's strength, there is indeed no need to fear Lin Fang." The old man with the black staff nodded.“...
