“Do you too seek the Xuanming Scroll? Take it, if you wish,” Feng Yun Wuji suddenly tossed the lower volume of the Xuanming Scroll in his hand to the Great Free and Easy Man. “As a reward, I only ask you to tell me why so many people are aware that the Xuanming Scroll is with me. As far as I know, there are dozens of versions of the Xuanming Scroll. How do you know which one is genuine?”

The Great Free and Easy Man stared in astonishment as Feng Yun Wuji threw the highly sought-after treasure to him, looking down at the three ancient seal characters on the cover, unable to react for a moment. Little did he know, Feng Yun Wuji was aware that even if the Xuanming Scroll was authentic, he lacked the capability to preserve it. Anything that could not bring fortune but kept as a burden would only be a source of trouble.

After a long while, the Great Free and Easy Man came to his senses, sighed deeply, and returned the Xuanming Scroll to Feng Yun Wuji. “Such a treasure is beyond the likes of me. As for the question you’ve raised, I can indeed inform you.”

The Great Free and Easy Man suddenly stopped, scrutinizing Feng Yun Wuji up and down, his eyes flickering with curiosity. “Have you ascended for only a little over three years?”

“You’re correct, it seems like everyone knows.”

“That’s the point,” the Great Free and Easy Man nodded. “In just three years, your cultivation rivals that of an ordinary person who has trained for millions of years. The Xuanming Scroll truly is boundless in its revelations! It is no wonder it was created by the Saint of the Cangqiong Ming Domain.”

This time, it was Feng Yun Wuji’s turn to be surprised, a sense of unease washing over him. He vaguely felt that there might be a problem with this matter. “It’s true that I have ascended for three years, but this has nothing to do with the Xuanming Scroll.”

The Great Free and Easy Man showed an understanding expression, but Feng Yun Wuji knew that his understanding was completely different from what he had said. He wanted to explain but didn’t know how to start.

“I just didn’t want the Xuanming Scroll to fall into the hands of the people from the Demon Realm. I personally had no intention of seizing it. Keep this book for yourself. My martial arts are limited, and I can barely deal with the likes of Wind Demon from the demonic path, but I wouldn’t stand a chance against more formidable individuals… This object has now attracted covetous eyes from all over the world, so be extremely cautious. Moreover… The Xuanming Scroll is a supreme treasure, and in this world, the only thing that could cause such a rapid increase in strength for a newly ascended individual is probably such a precious item.”

“It’s not… Actually, the reason why I can surge in power in a short period is entirely because… My cultivation is completely derived from my master’s top-down transmission,”

“Is your master You Wuxie?” The Great Free and Easy Man’s expression changed drastically, his voice cold.

“Correct, how did you know…”

“Humph!” The Great Free and Easy Man turned and walked away. “I treated you with sincerity, but you deceived me with a square. Han Chi Tian Mo You Wuxie, I’ve seen him when I came here, yet you claim your power comes from his top-down transmission. Humph! In this ancient world, who doesn’t know that once the full cultivation is lost, one must turn into flying ash. If he had passed on his power to you, how could he still be alive… Take care of yourself!”

With that, the Great Free and Easy Man had flown away like a swan in the dark, clearly leaving with dissatisfaction and anger. But Feng Yun Wuji had no time to care, a strong shock overwhelmed him, even if the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, it would be no more than this.

“Master is not dead?!” Feng Yun Wuji muttered to himself, almost unable to believe his ears. “I saw him turn into flying ash with my own eyes, how could someone have seen him again? … What exactly is going on here?!!”

“Want to know what’s going on? Let me tell you, hehe…” A gentle and pleasant voice came, Feng Yun Wuji looked up and saw a woman in red standing on the high peak, looking down at him condescendingly. The woman, with long, fair hands, was holding a cup of bright green porcelain, drinking from it. Next to the woman, a man in purple, who could barely be considered handsome, was holding her with one hand and holding a similar cup with the other, but the man was looking at the sky, his eyes blank, seemingly thinking about something.

“Who are you?” Feng Yun Wuji’s heart was filled with vigilance, there had been enough mysterious people appearing these days.

“Me!” The woman in the red dress laughed loudly, laughing so hard that Feng Yun Wuji was at a loss, the man next to the woman seemed to be awakened by the laughter, looked back at the beautiful woman in red, gently patted her on the back, and revealed a faint smile on his lips.

“I am here to kill you!” The woman’s laughter suddenly stopped, her beautiful face was full of frost, as soon as the words fell, she gently leaped from the peak thousands of feet high and turned into a red light flying towards Feng Yun Wuji.

“Tian Shan Six Yang Palm!” The woman raised her hand and slapped six palms, each palm turned into a blood sun in the void, imprinting towards Feng Yun Wuji. The six palm prints exuded the heat of melting gold and shining stones, causing the temperature of the entire space to rise sharply.

“Earth Demon Sword!” A huge sword of chaos emerged from the ground under Feng Yun Wuji, with a loud sound, it met the six blood suns.

Boom!

The strong wind blew, the sand and stones flew, and the Earth Demon Sword Qi almost collided with the six blood suns at the same time, after a loud noise, they disappeared at the same time. In the dim sand and fog, a red figure rushed out, and the white and red palm printed on Feng Yun Wuji’s chest.

Feng Yun Wuji’s body swayed back, but he had already avoided the sneak attack.

“Hehe, you lost.” The man on the cliff suddenly appeared at the corner of Feng Yun Wuji’s eye, Feng Yun Wuji felt strange in his heart, subconsciously looked up, and was shocked to find that from the cliff top to the side were all the purple-clothed men, each purple-clothed man maintaining a different posture.

“This person is terrifyingly fast, and the afterimage has not dissipated for such a long time.” Thinking of this, Feng Yun Wuji became more and more wary of these two people.

The man in purple seemed to feel what Feng Yun Wuji was thinking, smiled at him, then turned around and gently held the woman in red, his chin gently rubbing her bright long hair, and made a soft laugh in his mouth.

“Humph! I don’t believe I can’t kill him yet!” The woman in red did not struggle, let the man hold her, but her eyes crossed the man’s arm, coldly looking at Feng Yun Wuji.

“Hehe, you are not good, it was clearly agreed not to use the aura characteristics. Hehe, Xi’er, if you don’t use the Tianmo aura, you will never hit him. This person has cultivated a strange body technique, which is not affected by force at all. If you can’t converge the wind, you will never be able to stab him.” The man revealed the details of Feng Yun Wuji’s martial arts, which shocked him.

“Hehe… I didn’t plan to kill him in the first place.” The demoness named Xi’er suddenly smiled, like a full tree of red flowers, blooming on every branch. “Yi Yun, you have to act quickly if you want to make a move, there are more and more people here.”

“Hehe… Are there more people than our Bei Luo Zi Xiao Sword Sect?” The man named Yi Yun took a sip of the light green liquid in the green jade cup and said.

As soon as the man finished speaking, in the open wilderness, flags suddenly rose from the distance, with countless figures, each exuding a powerful aura.

“Bei Luo Zi Shan, invincible under heaven, Zi Xiao is not out, who can compete with the sharp edge!” The densely packed figures approached from the distance, all wearing Qilin armor, lined up in the air. The leading was a sedan chair carried by four masters, under the wide Luo tent, a beautiful woman in a purple dress was looking out from under the tent, watching the man and the woman from a distance, and said in a soft voice: “Yi Yun, Xi’er sister, I’m here, you see this time I brought the sect’s experts to help, not bad…” After that, the woman made a cute face, stuck out her tongue, and laughed triumphantly.

The man named Yi Yun sighed, looked at the woman, and shook his head helplessly, saying, “You have moved all the experts in the sect, if the enemy invades, how should Bei Luo Zi Xiao Mountain be?”
