The second goal of Mingdi's exploration was a valley hidden deep in the mountains, with a majestic and winding terrain that stretched for nearly a thousand miles. From the entrance to the bottom of the valley, the entire route was filled with various purple bamboos. Light purple, pinkish-purple, bluish-purple, dark purple, as well as purple with hints of red, white, gold, and silver, and even purple with red spots, green spots, white spots, and purple with wealth spots, all sorts of colorful patterns with different hues.
Inside the valley, the restrictions were ordinary at first, just the simplest small five-line wooden restrictions. As they proceeded nearly a hundred miles, there were dozens of restrictions, each one easily broken by the disciples of Wei Xiao Zong. They also obtained several items made from extremely old purple bamboo, such as bamboo flutes, bamboo whistles, bamboo fans, and bamboo pillows, each with its own unique use. The group benefited greatly and saw that the restrictions were shallow, so they put aside their vigilance and focused on breaking through the formation, advancing another three hundred miles into the depths of the valley.
At this moment, a very complex and mysterious large array suddenly emerged. First, the seventy-two responses of the wooden thunder shook the two bodies of the Ji brothers into powder. Then, a strange wind that was purple, bright, and full of spiritual energy but as heavy as a mountain suddenly rose, blowing the two bloody souls to nothingness, their spirits scattered and disappeared.
Xiao Zhang listened to the narration of the Daoist brother in the communication device, and his heart couldn't help but sink. He instinctively looked towards Zhao Yi beside Gu Xiechen.
Gu Xie dust smiled, he nodded to Zhao Yi, and Zhao Yi immediately spoke: "There are 28,972 kinds of formations that can be used with the Yīn Mù shock thunder; accompanied by the Yīn Mù shock thunder, there are only three kinds of formations that can also produce the Yīn Mù spirit wind dispersing soul; among these three, in a large formation, it can cooperate with the Líng Gēn purple bamboo to blow out the "Purple Yun dispersing Ling Cai" formation, and there is only one kind: "Shùn Nì Sān Cái Xiǎo Xū Mí Sàn Hún Formation".
Xiao Zhang hastily asked: "Is there a way to break through the formation?"
Next to Pan Zhenyong, Miro's disciples stared at Zhao Yi without blinking. This so-called Shun Ni San Cai Xiao Xu Mi San array, they hadn't even heard of it. As for the Yimutu Lei, they were familiar with it, but what was this Yimutu Lingfeng? They didn't understand a thing. Even more profound was "Zi Yun San Ling Cai".
Don't mention the two of them, even the highest-ranking elders of the Wonton and Miro clans may not have heard of it.
Zhao Yi said calmly, "The method of breaking the array is not complicated. Please invite the six Ding and Jia gods to gather the energy of the Western Taibai Golden Essence with the 'Golden Axe Technique', transform it into a Taiyi Golden Spirit Axe, and split open the Array Eye with a single strike of the Million-Year-Old Purple Bamboo. The array will disperse on its own. However, after breaking the array, one must be careful. The scattered spirit energy is a spiritual entity born from heaven and earth. If you use an earth-attribute treasure to collect it, you can refine a pretty good treasure."
After listening to Zhao Yi's explanation, a small Taoist in apricot yellow robe hesitated for a moment before raising his right hand: "We respectfully invite the power of Liu Ding and Liu Jia. Our Xiaomao Mountain sect has indeed passed down several incomplete chapters... However, the complete incantation has been lost for nearly a thousand years."
A Taoist wearing a white robe also raised his right hand, and he smiled bitterly: "Condensing the aura of Western Tai Bai Jin Jing, my Tai Bai Gate is slightly familiar with it. However, the 'Golden Axe Technique' was vaguely mentioned by the seniors of our sect, but it has been lost for hundreds of years."
Xiao Zhang's gaze at Gu Xiechen grew brighter, and he opened his mouth as if to say something. However, Peng Hua swiftly intercepted him, standing in front of Gu Xiechen. With a loud thud on his chest, Peng Hua's eyes gleamed with a fierce light. In a tone that was both righteous and extreme, he bellowed: "You want to lay a hand on my junior brother? You'll have to ask if the Jiuyou Sect agrees first! All of you, junior brothers!"
As Peng Hua let out a loud shout, more than a dozen disciples of the Dao Alliance rushed out and surrounded Gu Xuan Dust. These Dao Alliance disciples were all strange and eerie, with evil energy emanating from their bodies. They were all Peng Hua's fellow disciples and brothers, and the Nine Nether Dao Gate had all sorts of ghosts, demons, and monsters. In short, they had everything that was supposed to be in a "Compendium of Earth's Strange Creatures". Peng Hua was the eldest brother among these ghosts and demons, and with one call from him, they naturally responded as a group.
Anyone who can cultivate the Tao is not a fool. Zhao Yi easily broke through the restrictions of the Hidden Dragon Pool, proving that his value was greater than that of all the disciples of the Ben Huo and Mi Luo sects combined. He will also crack the long-lost Shun Ni San Cai Xiao Xu Mi San array, as well as master the lost art of summoning the six Ding and Jia of Xiaomao Mountain, and the lost Golden Axe technique of the Taibai Gate. Zhao Yi's value is simply immeasurable.
Zhao Yi is still just a puppet summoned by Gu Xian's sharp tongue!
Among them, Xuan Xu is worth pondering. But no matter what, Gu Xie Chen is a treasure! A living treasure!
Xiao Zhang sighed and said with a bitter smile: "Peng Hua, given our friendship, must you do it this way?"
Peng Hua's face turned stern, and he sneered: "Friendship is one thing, don't mix it with official business. The several maids by my side, if you fancy any of them, I can give them to you as a gift. But if you want to play tricks on Gu Shi, my younger brother, I won't allow it!"
Xiao Zhang's face turned purple with rage, almost to the point of vomiting blood. He angrily said: "Those few maidservants of yours, I can't afford to indulge in them, you'd better enjoy them yourself! Quickly investigate the situation inside Shui Gong and then go reinforce that team." Daoist Zhang saluted Gu Xuan Wu and said in a low voice: "Gu Wu has given the order!"
Gu Xie nodded and smiled at Peng Hua, who was following closely behind him with a look of concern, and then gave an order to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi rushed out of the transport ship and strode towards the Water Palace. The bottom of the Submerged Dragon Pond was densely covered with coral of various colors, red, blue, indigo, and white, all present. As Zhao Yi approached the Water Palace, countless strands of colorful light suddenly shot out from the coral. It could be seen that the coral had opened its tentacles, revealing numerous colorful pearls inside, like stars in the sky. Each pearl shone brightly, "Hissing sounds filled the air as countless colored lights enveloped Zhao Yi tightly."
In the communication device, the team of Taoist disciples who had lost their lives were waiting for reinforcements when Little Zhang suddenly raised his head. He looked at the sky filled with colorful lights and exclaimed: "Heavens! It's the Post-Heaven Spirit Magnetic Absolute Light! Oh my god!"
Peng Hua's face changed, and the next day, the Ling Magnetic Absolute Light was also a legend within the Asian Taoist Alliance. This treasure was born from heaven and earth, specializing in damaging all five elements, while also damaging the essence of blood and harming people's spirits. It is one of the most poisonous forbidden objects in the world. Unless it is a legendary immortal who has escaped the Five Elements, even if there are powerful magical artifacts protecting an ordinary person, they will eventually turn into a puddle of blood after a short period of time.
Zhao Yi strode forward in the midst of countless post-heavenly spiritual magnetic lights, treating this place as if it were a major thoroughfare. The five-colored lights swept across his body, but did not harm him in the slightest. Gu Xiechen and Zhao Yi had a mental connection between them, and he vaguely sensed that once the five-colored lights pierced Zhao Yi's body, a mysterious power within Zhao Yi would naturally dissolve the lethal force of the lights, rendering them harmless. To these five-colored lights, Zhao Yi's body was like a ghostly apparition, impossible to grasp or harm.
After a few steps, Zhao Yi had already arrived at the entrance of the Water Palace. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the signboard on the gate of the Water Palace with one hand. The half-transparent white jade carved signboard was instantly crushed by Zhao Yi's grasp, and a fist-sized, all-around five-colored swirling treasure pearl rolled out from inside. Zhao Yi hastily drew a symbol on the treasure pearl, and tens of billions of five-colored rays of light flew into the pearl like birds entering a forest. The pearls on the coral simultaneously burst open, transforming into millions of five-colored rays of light that merged into the pearl.
With a casual flick of his wrist, the colorful treasure ball accurately fell into Little Zhang's arms. Little Zhang suddenly shuddered and almost dropped the treasure ball.
Gu Xie dust had long understood what was going on from his connection with Zhao Yizhen, and he smiled at Little Zhang Daoren, saying: "Little Zhang Daoren, this treasure pearl should be kept by you according to our alliance agreement, and it will be yours to distribute in the future."
Peng Hua and others' heads turned to Xiao Zhang Dao Ren in unison, and everyone's eyeballs sprayed out a faint green light again. Xiao Zhang Dao Ren's heart and five organs were shaking, he lifted his Taoist robe and stuffed the treasure into it, and bowed to the Taoist alliance disciples on the scene: "Everyone, fellow Taoists, these treasures don't belong to me, Xiao Zhang, let our sect's seniors handle them! Hurry up and search for the 360 caves of blessings in the heavens, we should leave Tian Xing as soon as possible."
After hearing Xiao Zhang Daoren's words, the eyes of the Dao Alliance disciples finally retracted their green light.
With nothing left to say, under Zhao Yi's leadership, the Taoist disciples explored 360 places of good fortune in just half a month. Among these 360 places of good fortune, more than 130 were empty and had nothing left behind. In the other 200 or so places of good fortune, some had dozens of treasures like Jin Xianzi's **Qimen Array**, while others had only one or two.
Finally, the last cave heaven and blessed land "Yu Jing Ya" was searched by the disciples of Dao Meng, and after being checked by Zhang Daoren, this time everyone collectively searched for various treasures, including 993 pieces of Fa Bao, more than 4,900 bottles of unknown Dan Wan Yao San, over 30 volumes of strange and unusual Fa Kou Kou, and more than 37,000 volumes of Ling Cao Ling Yao.
Because the seals of all the blessed lands are profound and mysterious, the disciples of Zuo Xiang and Mi Luo sects have no way to deal with these seals and formations, so all the seals and formations were solved by Zhao Yi.
In front of the Jade Refining Cliff, Little Zhang Daoist reported out the quantities of various treasures after clearing them up. Every time he reported a number, nearly a thousand fellow disciples present couldn't help but erupt into cheers.
At last, Xiao Zhang suddenly turned to Gu Xiechen: "According to our alliance agreement, one-tenth of these treasures will belong to Brother Gu."
He lightly swung his sleeve, and with a gentle smile, said: "Alright then, Peng Hua Shixiong, consider this treasure as my gift to you for accepting me as your disciple!" Reminder: halftime break.
Someone said that Xiao Gu's classmate was too generous, and he took away a treasure worth one-tenth of his wealth to pay respects to his master.
