Taoist

The egret approached Zhu Xiuheng, with the fingers of his left hand close together, and a silver needle in between was shining with ice blue light.

"What do you want me to say, you are really just like the rumors, ruthless and vicious - you dare to play tricks in front of so many people, I really admire you."

Zhu Xiuheng was pressed against the silver needle by Bailu, and a look of panic flashed across his face, "What is Fairy Bailu talking about, everyone depends on their own abilities in the proving ground."

Bai Lu brought the silver needle an inch closer, and the tip of the needle was almost touching Zhu Xiuheng's skin, "On the proving ground, each person depends on his ability, regardless of life or death."

Zhu Xiuheng's face turned pale. He felt the killing intent in Bailu's words, and instantly realized that Bailu could really kill him here!

"You can't kill me, and you won't kill me." Fortunately, Zhu Xiuheng was not completely speechless before being frightened. He looked at the silver needle stuck around his neck stiffly and said, "Unless you want to Provoke a dispute between the two sects."

Egret's eyes changed, and he stood up and retreated.

"Wait until the next meeting, the result will be hard to say."

After speaking, he exited the trial platform.

All the actions were taken in an instant, and the people in the audience didn't realize what the two of them said in the end. They only saw Egret retreating to the seat gracefully.

Behind the egret, Zhu Xiuheng suddenly burst out laughing for no reason, attracting bursts of surprised looks.

It was the elder who maintained order and sent Zhu Xiuheng out of the trial field directly, and reiterated to everyone: "The competition is over, and neither side is allowed to stay in the field!"

Zhu Xiuheng returned to the disciples of Scarlet Flame Palace, straightened his clothes, and sat down calmly.

There was no trace of shame or disappointment on his face.

He glanced around the disciples of Scarlet Flame Palace, and his eyes stayed on Xie Fei for a moment longer.

"Next, you all challenge me to the people of Feixianmen! If you win, I will reward you a lot. If you lose, after you go back, you can invite yourself to practice in the outer sect!"

There was a lot of voices in the field, but the atmosphere in the Scarlet Flame Palace had dropped to freezing point.

As for the outside world, a friend of Elder Du's in Chiyan Palace was going to pay a visit this day, but was delayed for a while because of some incidents.

But when Elder Du's friend took the time to rush to the Red Flame Palace, he saw that the original mountain range of the Red Flame Palace had all been turned into ruins.

Suddenly he was so shocked that he couldn't hold the fly whisk in his hand, he rubbed his eyes as he looked at the vast mountain range in front of him that looked like a wasteland, and then backed away in a daze.

"Could it be that I went to the wrong place? When did this place have such a boundary? Haven't you seen it before?"

While grunting, the Taoist left the area.

But not long after, he turned back to this place again, "That's right, it's here!"

what is happening?

What about Red Flame Palace?What about the original forest?What about the original palace?Why is there nothing all of a sudden?

There was still a smoky smell of gunpowder in the sand under his feet, and there was not even a ghost in the surrounding area.

The Taoist carefully observed the sky for a while, and the more he watched, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help shivering.

There has been no news of such a big event in the cultivation world, and it must have taken a short time for it to happen.

What kind of power is this that can silently wipe out such a big sect in an instant?

Is this power still there?

Thinking of this, the Taoist hurriedly recited "Boundless Heavenly Venerable", not daring to stay here any longer.

Not long after the Taoist left, Zhu Yu who hurried over from the Chengtian Realm also came here.

The originally continuous mountains and palaces all disappeared, and the entire mountain range was bare.

No matter how much Zhu Yu had made psychological preparations, he could not have anticipated the current situation.

He froze for a moment, then trembled uncontrollably, and a mouthful of blood gushed out from his mouth.

"who is it?!"

Angry shouts resounded through the sky, but no one here could answer his question.

And this time, the news of the destruction of the Red Flame Palace quickly spread throughout the Nine Cang Realm.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion, and people were panicked.

Everyone is discussing, what kind of power can quietly destroy the entire mountain range?

Does such a terrifying power exist in the Nine Heavens Realm?

If it was before today, no one would believe this, but at this time the example of the Scarlet Flame Palace was there, no matter how absurd Ms. Bai felt, she had to admit this fact.

Now that barren mountain with a radius of thousands of miles is like a scar, not only Zhu Yu feels extremely angry and frightened, but also provokes the nerve called fear in other people.

And the currently recognized number one powerhouse in the Nine Cang Realm is the great priest of the Xuanshang Dynasty.

When such a thing happened, although no one dared to say it out loud, their gazes all turned to the capital.

Although I don't think the Great Priest will have such ability and do such a thing, but who can say for sure?

Living up to expectations, Zhu Yu also came to the capital where the Xuanshang Dynasty was located not long after.

"Red Flame Palace Master Zhu Yu, please see the great priest!"

Zhu Yu stood outside the city and shouted loudly.

The common people and soldiers in the capital stopped what they were doing one after another. The news of the destruction of the Red Flame Palace was only spread among the monks, and these ordinary people still didn't know what happened.

At this time, seeing a Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly coming to the sky outside the capital and shouting, everyone was a little confused.

At this time, a ray of light flashed across the capital, forming a bridge of light, and came directly in front of Zhu Yu.

After a short while, that Guangqiao disappeared into the air together with Zhu Yu.

In a secluded courtyard, Zhu Yu met this No. 1 priest in the Nine Cang Realm.

Zhu Yu couldn't feel anything special about this old man at all, let alone the coercion exuded by a cultivator.

It seems that he is really an ordinary mortal old man.

Zhu Yu bowed deeply to the old man, "Junior Zhu Yu, I have met senior."

The great priest looked benevolent, and he looked at Zhu Yu cheerfully, "I already know your reason for coming."

"When the incident happened, I had a vague feeling, but I haven't checked it yet. Now that you have found it, I will walk with you."

How dare Zhu Yu have any objections, he had never been in contact with anyone before the big enshrinement, and most of the things he knew were just rumors.

Before coming here this time, Zhu Yu was very worried, but it was just a helpless move due to the current situation of Scarlet Flame Palace.

The great priest was not angry, and offered to go back to the Red Flame Palace with him to check it out, which was already a surprise.

Zhu Yudang even agreed, "Thank you, senior."

As the two walked together, Zhu Yu felt more and more that the great offering was as unfathomable as the rumors said.

This feeling is something he never had when he betrayed you to Yuan Yi, the suzerain of the Supreme Sect.

The two of them rode the wind and the clouds at an extremely fast speed, and in a blink of an eye they had already passed thousands of rivers and mountains.

"What happened to your sect this time should not have been done by humans." The great priest said suddenly, looking ahead.

Zhu Yu hurriedly said, "Please tell me, senior."

The great priest pondered for a while, "This is just some guesswork on my part. I will not know the details until I read it."

Zhu Yu grieved and said: "The foundation of my Red Flame Palace for thousands of years has been destroyed like this. This junior is really anxious! I only regret that I was not there at that time, and I couldn't coexist with the Red Flame Palace... .”

Just when Zhu Yu was about to talk about this at length, the priest interrupted him, "Looking at the current situation, even if you were here at that time, you were useless, and you just added an extra life."

This unattractive old man brushed away the clouds and mist in front of his eyes, revealing the bright green hills below.

"When a power reaches a certain level, you and I are just ants in front of this power."

Zhu Yu knew that this great priest knew a lot of secrets, and had even seen those powerful giants thousands of years ago with his own eyes, so when he heard what the great priest said, he immediately nodded in agreement.

"I remember that your Scarlet Flame Palace was built on an extremely sunny place, right?"

"A place of extreme sun?" Zhu Yu was taken aback by the words of the high priest, and after thinking for a while, he realized what the high priest said, "Senior, did you mean the fire prison?"

The great priest smiled, "Fire Prison, have you turned that place into a prison for detaining people?"

For some reason, Zhu Yu was suddenly ashamed when asked by the great priest, and said hesitantly, "This—that place existed as a forbidden place when I entered the Scarlet Flame Palace. To punish the disciple..."

There was a bit of reminiscence in the eyes of the great priest, "Do you know that the patriarch of your Red Flame Palace chose to establish his sect here precisely because he saw that extremely sunny place. It was originally a treasure land, but you I don’t know how to cherish it, thanks to the death of your ancestor, if I didn’t see you group of unfilial disciples and grandchildren, I would have been pissed to death!”

Although Zhu Yu had heard about this matter before, but before him, several generations of palace masters had come here like this, and he had no intention of changing it, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

After all, there is nothing but fire in that ghostly place.

I can't see anything special on weekdays, so Zhu Yu naturally doesn't put his mind on the fire prison.

It's just that at this moment when the great priest mentioned this matter, Zhu Yu vaguely realized something in his heart, but he was vaguely not sure, or he couldn't believe it, and subconsciously denied the idea.

A drop of cold sweat fell from his forehead at some point.

The outline of the mountain range where the Scarlet Flame Palace was originally located was vaguely seen ahead, and the oncoming wind carried a trace of fireworks.

Not long after, the two held down the cloud head and stopped above the mountain range.

It was desolate and lonely, with no grass growing.
