Chapter 1578 Rescuing a Beauty on the Way
After accepting the invitation from Patriarch Ziyang, Liu Changxu began to arrange the security and defense of Yunxiao Mountain after his departure.
The main reason he initially refused the invitation from Patriarch Ziyang was that he was worried about the safety of his family.
Without his personal presence at Yunxiao Mountain, even the strongest defensive array would be unable to cope with potential risks. After much deliberation, Liu Changxu finally decided to leave behind an avatar to guard the mountain.
He then entered the secluded chamber again to focus on condensing his avatar.
Three months later, the avatar was finally completed. This avatar was identical in appearance and physique to Liu Changxu himself, and its strength was about one-third of the original body, barely reaching the combat power level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, enough to deal with a surprise attack from an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal.
After settling everything at home, Liu Changxu bid farewell to his wife and children, summoned the Ruyi Lotus Disc, and set off for the Ziyang Immortal Sect.
As Liu Changxu advanced to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, the Ruyi Lotus Disc also advanced to a low-grade Xuan Tian Spiritual Treasure, greatly increasing its spatial teleportation speed.
However, Yunxiao Mountain is too far away from Ziyang Immortal Sect. Even with the speed of the Ruyi Lotus Disc, it would take at least half a year to reach it.
Since there was still plenty of time, Liu Changxu did not rush to get there. He stopped from time to time during the flight to enjoy the local customs and culture along the way.
Whenever he encounters a magnificent super immortal city or a famous immortal mountain or spiritual vein on his journey, he will stop for a while, either strolling into the immortal city or visiting the scenic peaks.
Every time he entered the Immortal City, he would visit the most bustling market to purchase rare spiritual items needed by his family. He would also go to teahouses and taverns to listen to local cultivators chat about anecdotes of the Immortal Realm and stories of their sects.
When flying to sparsely populated sacred mountains and spiritual veins, he would not leave empty-handed. He would spread his divine sense in all directions and collect any rare spiritual items that his family or he needed, storing them in his storage bracelet.
On this morning, Liu Changxu was riding the Ruyi Lotus Butterfly, soaring through a vast and boundless forest.
Suddenly, a powerful surge of magical energy emanated from the depths of the forest. A thought struck him, and he immediately unleashed the immense divine sense of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, spreading it out like an invisible net. In an instant, the scene deep within the forest was clearly imprinted in his mind.
It turned out that four cultivators were engaged in a fierce battle, with various spells and spiritual lights intertwining and colliding, clearly reaching a fever pitch.
To Liu Changxu's slight surprise, the four people engaged in the fierce battle were all experts at the Mahayana Realm. Three of them were from the Blood God Sect, and their cultivation had all reached the Great Ascension Perfection stage; the other was a female cultivator at the Great Ascension Perfection stage.
At this moment, the three Great Ascension Perfection experts from the Blood God Sect, who had the advantage in strength, had already gained an absolute upper hand and were launching a fierce and relentless attack on the Great Ascension female cultivator.
Knowing she was no match for him, the female cultivator tried her best to escape, but was held fast by her opponent and found herself in a precarious situation.
Upon seeing that it was the remnants of the Blood God Cult committing evil deeds here, Liu Changxu immediately decided to take action. With a flash, he left the Ruyi Lotus Disc and stood suspended in the air tens of thousands of feet above the ground.
Liu Changxu's gaze was icy, his body as still as a mountain, as he unleashed three punches in succession at the three Blood God Sect Great Ascension Perfection experts.
The vast immortal power of the Taiyi Golden Immortal instantly condensed into three dazzling golden fist-shaped energies in the void, their golden light surging and their oppressive power shaking the surrounding area. The fist-shaped energies tore through layers of space, crossed the barriers of time and space, and carried unparalleled power as they slammed towards the three Blood God Sect experts.
The three Blood God Sect cultivators at the Great Ascension stage changed their expressions drastically when they saw the golden fist energy blasting through the air. They immediately used their escape techniques to flee into the distance.
In an instant, they suddenly realized that the void around them had been sealed off by an invisible force, and their bodies were stuck in the mud, unable to move at all.
The three were filled with panic and astonishment, struggling desperately, but the dazzling golden fist energy had already reached them. With three earth-shattering explosions, the three Great Ascension Perfection experts had no time to scream before they were blasted into a cloud of blood mist by the golden fist energy. Even their primordial spirits could not escape and completely dissipated into the world, leaving only three blood-red storage bracelets floating in the void.
Liu Changxu hadn't expected to defeat three Great Ascension Realm experts so easily; clearly, he had underestimated the true combat power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. Then, with a wave of his hand, the three blood-red storage bracelets flew into his grasp.
The female cultivator who had been in despair was both surprised and delighted to see three Blood God Sect Mahayana Perfection experts killed by Liu Changxu's three punches. She quickly used her teleportation ability to appear before her savior, stepped forward, and bowed:
"Junior Xiao Yu of the Ziwei Immortal Palace pays respects to Senior and thanks you for saving my life!"
Liu Changxu carefully examined the female cultivator in front of him. She was dressed in a light yellow fairy robe, with skin as white as snow, and beautiful features. Her bright eyes shone with a captivating charm. However, due to the fierce battle just now, her hair was a little messy and she looked slightly disheveled.
"Oh, so you're a fellow Daoist from the Ziwei Immortal Palace."
Liu Changxu said with some doubt:
"I wonder why you are here, young friend? And how did you come to be targeted by the remnants of the Blood God Cult?"
"Reporting to Senior, I was ordered by my master to come here to investigate the remnants of the Blood God Cult, but I did not expect to fall into their ambush. My fellow Daoist from the Ziyang Immortal Sect who accompanied me perished while covering my death. If it weren't for your help, I would probably have met the same fate."
Xiao Yu lowered his head and replied:
"Oh? So, your Ziwei Immortal Palace's reinforcements have arrived?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Changxu's face lit up with a hint of surprise.
“Indeed, senior. The three Taiyi Immortal Lords of my Ziwei Immortal Palace have already arrived at the Ziyang Immortal Sect. They are just waiting to find out the exact location of the Blood God Sect’s lair before they will immediately launch an attack to encircle and annihilate it.”
Xiao Yu nodded quickly and replied:
"That's wonderful. I came here from Yunxiao Mountain at the invitation of Patriarch Ziyang."
Liu Changxu said with a smile:
"Senior, could you perhaps be Immortal Lord Yunxiao?"
A glint of light flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes, and then she said excitedly:
"My master, Immortal Lord Ziyan, mentioned you not long ago! He wanted to meet you!"
"In that case, let's go to the Ziyang Immortal Sect together."
Liu Changxu proposed:
"Alright! Then I'll have to trouble you, Immortal Lord!"
Xiao Yuxin readily agreed:
As he spoke, Liu Changxu summoned the Ruyi Lotus Disc from afar to his side. Then, pointing to the radiant Ruyi Lotus Disc, he gestured for them to enter, and the two of them flew into the Ruyi Lotus Disc together.
The Ruyi Lotus Disc instantly transformed into a dazzling stream of light, hurtling towards the direction of the Ziyang Immortal Sect.
Upon learning that the Taiyi Golden Immortal expert from the Ziwei Immortal Palace had arrived, Liu Changxu increased the flight speed of the Ruyi Lotus Butterfly to its maximum, and successfully arrived at the gate of the Ziyang Immortal Sect in just seven days.
