Chapter 175: The Southern Region Is Going To Lose Dozens of Elite Cultivators!

“Use the spiritual energy cannons on the flying ship to bombard them.”

Yu Mingzhi knew that his expression was unsightly. After he gave the order, the flying ship of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, which was a top-grade profound artifact, immediately emitted a dazzling spiritual energy glow and shot backward.

Yu Hongye also took out a magic treasure to help.

After all, she was also a Tribulation Transcension realm cultivator, so she could still play a great role.

At this moment, at the critical moment of life and death, she didn’t hide it anymore.

She even used the small sword she obtained from the Ancient Sword Immortal’s cave abode in the Startling Rainbow Valley to attack the cultivators following the flying boat.

The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had a deep foundation, and it already had a strong ability to protect itself. In addition to the endless Immortal Jade energy obtained from the treasure meeting, the spiritual cannon on the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets bombarded the cultivators following the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets like they were risking their lives.

In order to block the attack, those cultivators had no choice but to slow down their speed.

Seeing that the flying ship was about to enter the vicinity of the teleportation point, Yu Mingzhi laughed complacently.

It seemed that they would be able to return safely without sacrificing the cultivators on the flying ship.

However, Yu Mingzhi didn’t laugh for long.

An incomparably terrifying aura suddenly locked onto the flying ship of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.

The huge flying ship was actually frozen in midair.

The flying ship was filled with spiritual light and its power was pushed to the extreme. However, it seemed to be stuck in a deep quagmire and could not move forward at all.

Yu Mingzhi’s eyes froze and he cried out in shock,

“A cultivator in the advanced stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage.”

Yu Mingzhi was only a cultivator in the initial stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage. In front of a cultivator in the advanced stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage, he was completely powerless to resist.

Very quickly, a man with a cold expression took a step out from the void and said in a threatening manner from above,

“Hand over that painting quickly, or everyone on the flying ship will die!”

The atmosphere in the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was very solemn. Everyone’s faces were pale and their eyes revealed fear.

Yu Hongye forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart and said in a deep voice, “Senior, that painting belongs to another Lord. If you hand it over, I’m afraid that Lord will be displeased.”

Yu Mingzhi could only use Liu Changgong to warn the cultivator in front of him first.

However, when that cultivator heard Yu Mingzhi’s words, he sneered and said, “Who cares what Lord is behind you? If you don’t hand over that painting, I can only take it by force.”

On the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, everyone was shocked.

The eyes of that cultivator at the late stage of the Tribulation Transcension were ice-cold. He pointed in the direction of the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.

The people on the flying ship felt as if they were being pressed down by a mountain, and they couldn’t breathe.

Yu Mingzhi knew that he had fallen into despair, and he regretted it.

He was too confident and didn’t let Yu Hongye escape first.

Yu Hongye was also at her wit’s end.

Before she could take out the painting scroll, her body was frozen by the cultivator.

Even if she frantically communicated with the storage bracelet, the storage bracelet didn’t have any reaction.

Yu Hongye’s heart was filled with bitterness.

Was she really just a chess piece for Senior?

Just when everyone thought that they would definitely die, the pressure on them suddenly relaxed, and their stiff bodies regained their freedom.

In the void, there seemed to be another invisible force that relieved the pressure.

It seemed that the new power was even more powerful, and it completely dissipated the spiritual power of the cultivator who was in the late stage of the Tribulation Transcension.

Yu Mingzhi and the others were glad that they had survived the calamity.

Yu Mingzhi looked up and saw a kind-looking old man appearing in front of the deck of his flying boat.

“Reverend Wan Xuan!”

Yu Mingzhi was so excited that he blurted out.

Wasn’t that the Reverend Wan Xuan who presided over the Myriad Treasure Convention?

Reverend Wan Xuan nodded at Yu Mingzhi and the others. Then, he turned to the cultivator in the advanced stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage in the sky and said, “Wan Xuan greets you, fellow Daoist.”

The cultivator in the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension said coldly, “Wan Xuan, do you also want to get involved?”

Reverend Wan Xuan said amiably, “Fellow Daoist, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets is a distinguished guest of the Danxia Holy Land. Can you give me some face and show me some mercy?”

The cultivator in the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension said ferociously, “I haven’t made any progress in my cultivation for 5,000 years. I’m just one step away from ascension, but I still don’t see any hope of ascension. At my level, I can only rely on epiphanies or some kind of fortuitous encounter to advance my cultivation.”

“I’ve been stuck for ten thousand years. The moment I saw that painting, I knew that it was my only hope of ascension. If I don’t ascend soon, my lifespan will run out and I’ll die. Wan Xuan, you’re no match for me. I advise you to take care of yourself. If you don’t take the initiative to retreat, I can only offend the Danxia Holy Land.”

Reverend Wan Xuan sighed with emotion. “Cultivators of our generation seek immortality and ask for the Dao. It’s like sailing against the current, accompanied by countless risks. Fellow Daoist, I have a longevity pill that can increase your lifespan by a thousand years. Cultivation isn’t easy. Fellow Daoist, don’t be stubborn and give up. How about it?”

The cultivator at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension said in surprise, “As expected of the Danxia Holy Land. You can even find such panaceas and miraculous medicines.”

“However, things like longevity fan have long been useless to me. Wan Xuan, you don’t have to waste your efforts.”

Reverend Wan Xuan fell silent.

He continued to persuade him:

“Fellow Daoist, what conditions do you have? I swear on the reputation of the Danxia Holy Land that everything can be negotiated.”

The cultivator at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension glanced at Yu Mingzhi and the others on the flying boat of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and said with a smile, “I can spare your lives. My request is very simple. Lend me the painting scroll for a hundred years. After I finish comprehending it, I will return it and come to apologize to you.”

Reverend Wan Xuan said helplessly, “It seems that I can only fight with you.”

The atmosphere immediately became tense when he said this. Yu Mingzhi and the others were also panicking.

Yu Mingzhi even sent a voice transmission to Yu Hongye, telling her to run away in the chaos.

“Your realm is too low. You are not my match, and with the addition of so many magical treasures, you can at most draw with me. If the cultivators of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets are included, I might not be able to gain any advantage.”

Reverend Wan Xuan smiled. “Since you know it clearly, why are you still so stubborn? It’s not too late to accept my longevity pill and put down the butcher’s knife.”

The cultivator at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage laughed cruelly. “Who said that I’m the only one? There are other fellow Daoists who have the same plan.”

After saying that, dozens of figures stepped out from the void.

There were cultivators from the Dharma Idol stage to the Tribulation Transcension stage.

Reverend Wan Xuan was greatly shocked.

“You are all elites of the Southern Territory, and you are usually well-respected people. Why…”

“We have discussed it. After we get the painting, we will take turns to study it.”

After hearing that, Reverend Wan Xuan’s face turned very ugly.

Yu Mingzhi and the others’ relaxed hearts were raised again.

Dozens of cultivators!

And several cultivators in the advanced stage of the Tribulation Transcension!

Now, even if they had Reverend Wan Xuan’s protection, they would definitely die.

Just when everyone thought that there was no suspense, Reverend Wan Xuan took a deep breath.

Then, he said in an extremely pained and regretful tone, “Sigh, the Southern Territory will lose dozens of elite cultivators today.”

The cultivators were shocked.

What did Wan Xuan mean?

Before they could react, Reverend Wan Xuan had already released a spiritual energy flare.

The spiritual energy pillar soared into the sky.

In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky, and a door appeared in the void.

An ethereal shadow floated out from the door.

The cultivators at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension were shocked.

“The Immortal has come down to Earth! Run!”
