IS Chapter 127

When Lin Zhu asked this question, he was directly facing the current Dao Sect Leader, Yuan Tai.

Standing beside Yuan Tai was his somewhat haggard-looking junior brother, Yuan Ying.

Although Yuan Ying Daoist was unremarkable in the Dao Sect, he was, after all, someone who had been to the Micro-Snow Palace once and was familiar with its architecture, hence his presence.

Yuan Tai cupped his fist in salute, “The Pill Cauldron Sect was absent from the Immortal Dao Competition for no apparent reason. We were just discussing this matter not long ago, wondering why. But unexpectedly, we meet Sect Leader Lin here—I wonder why Sect Leader Lin is under the banner of this Micro-Snow Sect?”

Lin Zhu smiled, “Visiting relatives and friends, I happened to stay here for a few extra days. Is that the same for you all?”

Yuan Tai laughed loudly, “Sect Leader Lin, stop joking. This Micro-Snow Palace is just a group of homeless, unknown fugitives who practice heretical cultivation methods and make a living by killing. Where would they have relatives, and where would they have friends? –Today, the people of the Immortal Dao are upholding the will of heaven, and are here to punish the Demonic Palace. You are waiting here, could it be that you knew about this in advance and came to assist us?”

“I know nothing at all.” Lin Zhu lowered his head, casually dusting his sleeves, “I vaguely remember that when I entered the Ghost Gate with you all, we still addressed the people of the Micro-Snow Palace as Dao friends. But now that the Immortal Dao Competition has begun, it has become a gathering to punish the Demonic Palace. Can Real Person Yuan Tai explain the changes in detail?”

“Sect Leader Lin, are you pretending to be ignorant?” The Martial Sect Leader stepped forward, his voice like a booming bell, “The Immortal Gate Competition was held as scheduled, and all the sects gathered together. We should have shown our abilities and exchanged Dao techniques, but news came from the Ghost Realm Void that we had to leave! This Micro-Snow Palace has the ambition of wolves, relying on force, and in the Void, they use demonic beasts to stir up trouble, not only snatching treasures but also disregarding the safety of the human realm, wantonly slaughtering righteous friends! Such heretical acts cannot be tolerated by the world!”

The Pill Cauldron Sect Leader stroked his beard and also said, “In the past, we called each other Dao friends, but today this disaster has been brewed. It is our negligence. Such a sect with the ambition of wolves, dormant for ten years, has now revealed its true colors. It is truly a great hidden danger to the Immortal Dao. Coincidentally, the Immortal Dao Competition has arrived, and all the sects have gathered. In the Void, the Dao Sect and the main sect are leading the various sects to contain the evil cultivators of the Micro-Snow Palace. We are staying in the human world to support them, so we should come out to help, directly attack the Micro-Snow Palace’s lair, and cut off their retreat.”

“In that case, it is truly shocking.” Lin Zhu said, “Who died?”

Judging from his tone, it made people feel uneasy. But the same words were said to everyone before departure, so it’s okay to say them again at this time to boost morale.

Yuan Tai said in a deep voice, “According to news from the Void, the former Dao Sect Leader, Real Person Taiqing, died tragically at the hands of the Second Palace Master Ye Zhuo. My master Real Person Taisu, and my uncle Real Person Taihuan, are also missing.”

The Martial Sect Leader said, “Don’t even mention the Void! My sect’s elder Xun Hua, and Lou Kui and several other fellow disciples, died tragically at the hands of that Ye Zhuo last year because of some grudges! A master and disciple left without a trace, what kind of heretical act is this!”

–Thus, the Upper Purity Mountain raised its arms and shouted, and all the sects in the four seas responded.

A group of people came in a mighty manner.

The gatekeeper was actually the Pill Cauldron Sect Leader, who had nothing to do with them and had always been indifferent to the world, which caused confusion. And thinking about it, the Pill Cauldron Sect claimed to have suffered heavy losses in the Void and refused to see guests behind closed doors, and even did not participate in the Immortal Dao Competition, so why did they run here instead?

Among the visitors was the Supreme Elder of the Hongmeng Sect who stayed behind in the human world. Seeing Sect Leader Lin’s figure, he couldn’t help but hesitate. Their Hongmeng Sect had always been on good terms with the Pill Cauldron Sect, and Sect Leader Lin did not inform them, appearing here without saying a word, wouldn’t that put the Hongmeng Sect on the fire? Damn it!

Sect Leader Lin listened to a speech.

“Since everyone is so clear, I have nothing to say.” Lin Zhu said calmly, “I came from the Void. Two disciples of the Martial Sect claimed to protect my sect, but in fact, they were greedy for success and rashly advanced in the Void formation, causing my sect’s disciples to fall into a desperate situation. Fortunately, the Second Palace Master Ye Zhuo came to the rescue. Your sect’s Taihuan and Taisu joined forces to intercept and kill the Second Palace Master Ye Zhuo in order to seize the treasures in the formation, but they were defeated instead. Now it’s all just empty words, your sect can say whatever it wants.”

Saying that, he took two steps back, and a blue scroll magic weapon slowly unfolded behind him.

Yuan Tai looked at him, “Sect Leader Lin is determined to be here, I am afraid it will put the Pill Cauldron Sect in an unjust position.”

“Justice or injustice, there is nowhere to say.” Lin Zhu sighed softly. In front of him, the chaotic, glazed-like Micro-Snow Palace mountain protection formation rose in an instant.

The handwriting of the Micro-Snow Palace Master, he studied for a month, although it was half-baked, but it could be used.

Behind him was the top-grade spiritual vein of the Green Mountains, full of spiritual energy, and the spiritual plants and herbs all over the mountains, which even the Pill Cauldron Sect was ashamed of. Even the old, weak, sick, and disabled of the palace, and only one Listening Meditation girl had the power to fight, but she specialized in assassination rather than direct killing.

He had to rely on him, a medicine cultivator, to take the lead. Fortunately, he could barely be considered a Tribulation Transcending Real Person. That damn Shen Jingzhen didn’t understand gentle persuasion. If he were here now, having a Dao cultivator to fight against the enemy would be much more decent, wouldn’t it?

“Everyone!” Yuan Tai immediately raised his arms and shouted, “The Micro-Snow Palace has done many evils, occupying the spiritual veins and doing unrighteous things. Today, we will eliminate this Demonic Palace and restore peace to the Immortal Dao!”

In an instant, Yuan Tai sacrificed a giant sword behind him, like a door-knocking hammer, and stabbed straight at the blue treasure scroll and the mountain protection formation!

That sword had the power of mountains and the shape of the Great Dao. It was clearly the legendary Immortal Artifact! The Upper Purity Mountain was already strong, and with this powerful weapon, what couldn’t it accomplish? Everyone was encouraged, and they each sacrificed their housekeeping skills to attack the mountain protection formation!

Sect Leader Lin’s blue robe fluttered, and brilliant light appeared around him. He used himself as the master of the formation, and the formation moved with the momentum, protecting the Micro-Snow peaks densely.

The giant sword failed to strike with one blow, emitting a brilliant light, rising to the high sky, and then crashing down from the sky, directly stabbing at the center of the mountain protection formation!

In an instant, the mountains trembled.

Outside the Pill Room, Grandmaster Xia slowly put down the embroidery needle in his hand, and his old fingers stroked the beautiful mountain and river embroidery, letting out a sigh.

On the eaves, Listening Meditation pulled up a black mask to cover her face, and her figure slowly hid in the blood-like maple forest.

In the center of the Pill Room, Feng Jiang opened his eyes. He took out a rusty ancient bronze bell from his sleeve and shook it three times.

The ethereal and simple three bell sounds fell like water droplets, as if they could penetrate people’s hearts.

“Ah Huai.” he called softly.
