"That's right. Brother Chi Meng and I saw the people from Samsara Temple sneaking into the depths of Jiuyuan Temple. Considering the friendship between our sects, we were afraid that they would do something harmful to Jiuyuan Temple. That's why we followed them here," Huo Yuan said seriously.
Perfected Master Chun Jun snorted. He did not believe a single word of what the two said, but he did not question them further.
Both Crimson Dream and Huo Yuan had extremely powerful backgrounds. Crimson Dream had an extremely important position in the Heavenly Court, and she also had Daofather Chi Rong, who was known for his protectiveness. Even if she did something, Daoist Master Chun Jun wouldn't dare to do anything to her. At most, he would just berate her.
Huo Yuan, on the other hand, was the current Mountain Master of Mount Bai Zhuang. Mount Bai Zhuang's influence was spread throughout the True Immortal Realm. Although there was no Dao Ancestor behind them, they had a close relationship with the Heavenly Court.
For countless years, anyone who dared to attack Mount Bai Zhuang would end up in a tragic state. Many people regarded Mount Bai Zhuang as a vassal of the Heavenly Court.
Jiuyuan Temple was currently in a delicate situation. As the Temple Master, Perfected Master Chun Jun had to consider the bigger picture. He naturally had no intention of provoking a fight between Jiuyuan Temple and Mount Bai Zhuang. Moreover, if he forced the two of them into a corner, it would be terrible if they joined forces with Samsara Temple.
"Alright. Since the two of you have nothing to do with Samsara Temple, please wait for a while. I will let you go after I deal with these traitors from Samsara Temple," Perfected Master Chun Jun said.
Chi Meng and Huo Yuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. They nodded and floated to a corner of the hall.
Although they each had their own background, they were still in the Jiuyuan Temple. Distant water could not quench the present thirst. If Chun Jun Zhenren really attacked them, they could only surrender.
"Mountain Master Huo Yuan, is that five-colored bottle the item refined by the previous Master of Mount Bai Zhuang, the Hundred Refined Immortal?" Chi Meng pursed her lips and asked telepathically.
The two of them stood side by side. There was no hostility in their eyes.
"That small bottle does indeed have the aura of my Hundred Refinement Mountain's refining technique. It should be the item that Master of the Hundred Refinement Mountain refined. However, back then, Master of the Hundred Refinement Mountain only refined an embryonic form. It looks like the Nine Yuan Temple has refined it a second time. It is very different from its initial appearance. I nearly failed to recognize it." Huo Yuan's eyes flickered as he replied via voice transmission.
"This treasure looks extraordinary indeed … In Mountain Master Huo's opinion, what exactly does the Nine Yuan Temple intend to do by creating such a treasure?" Chi Meng thought in his heart and asked via voice transmission once more.
"God knows what the old fox Chunjun is up to. We can only find out what the Nine Yuan Temple is up to if we take this item and study it." Huo Yuan muttered to himself.
Hearing this, Chi Meng turned to look at the people of Samsara Temple. Her beautiful eyes flickered, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Han Li saw that Chun Jun Zhenren was able to send Chi Meng and Huo Yuan away with just a few words and was secretly amazed.
He furrowed his brows and tried to think of a solution.
If he used the Sky Bottle to travel through time, he would definitely be able to escape this place. However, Nangong Wan had somehow forgotten about him and seemed to be hostile towards him. There was an 80% chance that she would not be willing to leave with him.
With Wu Yang, Jiao San, and the others present, it was obvious that they would not allow him to forcibly take Nangong Wan away.
As these thoughts churned through Han Li's mind, he raised his brow and looked at Wu Yang.
Although Wu Yang's expression was cold, his lips were moving imperceptibly.
The ears of Jiao San, Lu Chuanfeng, and the others were also moving slightly. They seemed to be discussing something in secret.
Shi Kongmo also looked at them attentively. It was obvious that he was also participating in the discussion.
Seeing this, Han Li could not help but feel a little annoyed.
After all, he was a member of Samsara Temple. Jiao San, Wu Yang, and the others had called Shi Kongmo, an outsider, but not him. It was obvious that they did not regard him as one of their own.
Even so, he could not do anything about it. After all, he did not really regard himself as a member of Samsara Temple. The communication between them was more based on some kind of contract.
However, he increasingly felt that ever since he joined Fire Dragon Taoism and got involved with this organization, there was a pair of invisible hands pushing something in the dark. It made him feel that he could not completely separate from it.
Especially when he saw Nangong Wan appear in front of him, the feeling in his heart grew stronger.
It seemed that he had to investigate this matter thoroughly after this matter was over.
He was not a person who liked to be controlled by others. His own fate must be completely in his own hands.
Seeing Chi Meng and Lu Chuanfeng retreat to the side, Chun Jun Immortal snorted in his heart. He turned to look at Wu Yang and the others calmly and was about to say something.
However, before he could speak, the people from Samsara Temple suddenly attacked.
Shi Kongmo and Lu Chuanfeng turned into two rays of light, one black and one blue, and flew towards the three people.
Shi Kongmo made a gesture and waved his ten fingers.
Dozens of black sword shadows shot out from his fingertips and slashed at Chun Jun Immortal and the other two people.
Each of the sword shadows had a black demonic eye flashing with black light. It looked extremely strange.
Dozens of sword shadows shot out, but there was no sound of sword whistling, as if these black swords were not real.
Lu Chuanfeng opened his mouth and spat out a ball of blue light, making gestures with his hands.
Streaks of colorful incantations shot out from his hands and hit the ball of spiritual light in front of him.
The blue light instantly exploded, transforming into countless thin blue ice needles that were each a foot long.
"Go!" Lu Chuanfeng made a gesture and shouted.
The blue ice needles shot out at the same time like strong bows and hard crossbows, making ear-piercing whistling sounds. They hit Chun Jun Immortal and the other two people with terrifying momentum.
"Humph, a desperate struggle!"
Chun Jun Immortal did not panic when he saw the fierce attack of the two people. Instead, he sneered and rubbed his hands, waving them to the left and right.
Two golden lights flew out from his hands and hit the walls on the left and right sides of the main hall.
Yang Junzi and Lei Jun Immortal immediately activated the token in their hands, and golden lights shot out from it and merged with the golden light on the surrounding walls.
The layer of golden light in the main hall immediately fluctuated violently, and golden rays shot out from it, instantly blocking in front of the three people and sweeping towards Shi Kongmo and Lu Chuanfeng like waves.
The ice needles that Lu Chuanfeng shot out were like clay oxen entering the sea, disappearing without a trace when they struck the golden light.
Shi Kongmo's black sword shadows were shapeless, and they broke through several layers of golden light one after another. However, the sword shadows quickly dimmed.
"Hey, what a powerful Devouring Restriction. It can actually devour the Power of Law in the Heart Demon Curse Sword," Shi Kongmo said in surprise when he saw this scene.
As he spoke, he changed the gesture with his hands.
The black sword shadows also changed and turned into black threads that seemed to have substance. They pierced through the layers of golden light and continued to shoot towards Chun Jun Immortal.
Perhaps it was because the black threads had become smaller, but when they pierced through the golden light, the speed at which they dimmed was much slower. In the blink of an eye, they were closing in on Chun Jun Immortal and the other two people.
Chun Jun Immortal and the other two people hurriedly retreated and activated the golden light around them to defend against the enemy.
At this moment, Lu Chuanfeng was waving both his hands, and blue light flashed around him.
"Crack, crack." Blue ice crystals the size of a house shot out from his hands. They let out terrifying screeches and smashed into the golden light around them like meteorites.
The golden light seemed to be much slower when devouring the Spiritual Power in physical objects. It was immediately hit by the blue ice crystals, and it could not get close to Shi Kongmo and Lu Chuanfeng.
As for Jiao San, Wu Yang, and the girl in black, the moment Shi Kongmo and Lu Chuanfeng flew out, they turned around and rushed towards a wall in the main hall.
"Friend Han, I have a way to break out of this place. Please help me." Almost at the same time, Jiao San's voice sounded in Han Li's ears.
Han Li's eyes flashed, and he followed closely behind Jiao San and the others. They landed in front of the wall.
Yang Junzi, who was far away, saw this and his expression changed. He made a gesture and pointed at the wall where Han Li and the others were.
The golden light on the wall suddenly brightened, and with a "chi chi" sound, countless golden light rays shot out from the wall. They gathered together and turned into countless giant golden tentacles that swept towards them.
"The three of us will block these tentacles and buy time for Jiao San!" Wu Yang shouted and flew out, grabbing the void with one hand.
"Zheng!" There was a sharp whistle!
A golden sword appeared in his hand. One side of the sword was engraved with images of mountains, rivers, grass, and trees, while the other side was engraved with images of stars. The whole sword shone with golden light, and it looked extraordinary.
Wu Yang waved the golden sword in his hand and slashed in the air.
A dazzling golden Sword Qi that was hundreds of meters long shot out and slashed the dozen or so tentacles.
"Chi la!" More than half of the tentacles were cut off, but the Sword Qi had shrunk a lot, and its luster had become very dim.
The few tentacles that were not cut off were very agile, and they coiled around the Sword Qi like snakes.
The golden Sword Qi was very agile, and it moved left and right like a living creature. It was like a big fish that had been caught in a net.
However, the tentacles were very tough, and they were not cut off. At the same time, they were devouring the spiritual power contained in the Sword Qi.
The golden Sword Qi quickly shrunk, and it struggled less and less. Finally, it was completely absorbed by the golden tentacles.
"These tentacles can devour spiritual power and the power of laws. Be careful!"
Wu Yang shouted when he saw this. At the same time, he waved his sword again and slashed at the other tentacles.
The girl in black and Wu Yang attacked at the same time. The dark red ancient mirror was destroyed, and the girl took out two snake-shaped long knives.
The girl's arms became a blur, and she slashed again and again.
A crescent moon shaped dark red knife light flew out and slashed at the golden tentacles on the other side, and seven or eight tentacles were cut off.
However, the golden tentacles were really sucking in everything. When the knife light that contained the Law of Reincarnation came into contact with the tentacles, it immediately dimmed and was devoured.
Han Li's hands shook when he saw this.
Starlight flashed on his arms, and specks of starlight suddenly appeared on his arms. They were the Mysterious Apertures that had been opened.
Han Li's arms swelled a lot, and his ten fingers grew a lot longer. Then, he flicked all ten of his fingers.
A series of "chi chi" whistled through the air, and white Qi blades flew out and slashed at the remaining golden tentacles.
Accompanied by the sound of ripping silk, all the golden tentacles were cut apart without any resistance, and they were easily swept away.
