Yang Junshanâs face had already turned green, the Taoist Red Star did not say anything, and laughed: âBut Taoist Yang, you donât need to worry, your existence is still kept secret by us, although the Star Cliff Celestial Sovereign has made a guess, he does not know of your existence, and the reason that Daofather Lian Heng dared to come knocking on our doorstep, was because he heard of Celestial Sovereignâs judgement, but we only received the news afterwards.â
Yang Junshan knew that it would be difficult to resolve the situation now, so he simply asked: âWhat are you guys thinking?â
âHand over that piece of land!â The speaker was that seemingly unfamiliar Daofather.
Seeing the doubt on Yang Junshanâs face, the Taoist Red Star introduced him: âGood, Taoist Yang knows that this is Fellow Mao Ding Mao, the most famous alchemist in Nine Links Star Palace, the Grandmaster of the dao of alchemy who once concocted a Dao pill for the Star Cliff Celestial Sovereign, and was invited by us two as a disciple to refine a Dao Rhythm Pill. The rest of Fellow Maoâs rewards are completely disregarded, only that piece of earth in Fellow Maoâs hands is of great use.â
Yang Junshan laughed coldly: âDo you think I am stupid to hand over the land under such circumstances?â
At this time, Taoist Mo Ya suddenly spoke up. âYou wonât have a chance to escape, the combined strength of the three of us isnât any weaker than you, not to mention that we have the Seven Star residual array under our control. The strength of this protective formation is something that no one knows better than you.â
As if to prove what the Taoist Mo Ya had said, right after he finished speaking, Yang Junshan could clearly feel that the array formation around him had changed. Although it did not directly suppress him, it had already formed layers upon layers of array barriers around him to prevent him from escaping.
âHuh?â Yang Junshan laughed coldly: âItâs nothing more than a chickenâs egg, under these circumstances, what more do you want from me?â
Taoist Mo Ya then said: âWhat if we promise that as long as you hand over the land, we will leave you your life and then let you leave?â
Yang Junshan laughed: âThis kind of trick to deceive children, the three of you shouldnât bring it out, right?â
Taoist Mo Ya said in a deep voice: âWe are willing to swear lightning tribulation!â
Taoist Mo Yaâs words seemed to be somewhat out of the other twoâs expectations, and it had to be said that the Taoist Mo Ya who was usually taciturn had now opened his mouth with a convincing demeanor.
As for the other Grandmaster of the Pill Dao, Daoist Mao Dingâs expression, from start to finish, did not change. He was only concerned about whether Yang Junshan could obtain the piece of land in his hands, as long as he could obtain the piece of land, he did not care about Yang Junshanâs life.
Yang Junshanâs expression changed, it was clear that he was currently undergoing intense inner energy fluctuations. He understood that under these circumstances, it was simply impossible to escape from the seven star residual array that were controlled by Mo Ya and Chi Xing under the control of the three Daoists. In the end, a trace of helplessness emerged on his face and he chose to submit.
The three of them immediately relaxed when they heard it, and a smile appeared on Taoist Red Starâs face as if he had succeeded. He said: âTaoist Yang, just relax, no one is willing to turn into ashes under the thunder tribulation. We will not allow fellow cultivator to delay your return for five years.â
Yang Junshan personally heard the three of them swear oaths to their True Souls, and then released him after they obtained the land. If there was a violation, the lightning tribulation would turn into dust, and only then would Yang Junshan be able to place the land beneath their feet on the ground. And upon seeing this piece of land, the Daoist Mao Dingâs expression became even more excited, it was obvious that this object was extremely important to him.
Mo Ya and Chi Xing glanced at each other, and a half diagram appeared in their hands. Following which, they waved their hands, and the layers of restrictions that were originally surrounding Yang Junshan immediately opened. Through Yang Junshanâs perception, a pathway that led directly to the outside of Stellar Cliffs had already been opened.
Without saying a word, Yang Junshan let out a long whistle, and transformed into a ball of yellow light, leaving the Outer World. Behind him, layers of formation light curtains began to close.
The Taoist Red Star stretched out his hand towards the land on the ground, and the Earth Elemental Treasure flew straight towards Daoist Mao Ding.
After playing with the treasure in his hand for a while, Daoist Mao Ding raised his head and said to Mo Ya and Chi Xing, âFellow Daoists, itâs not that I want to interfere with your actions, but we can easily take the oath of Lightning Calamity and let that person leave. Although this old man is grateful to the two of you for giving us all this for the sake of this supreme treasure, Iâm still unable to rest at ease by letting the two of you offend this great enemy.â
Mo Ya and Chi Xing looked at each other. Taoist Red Star smiled and said, âDonât worry, fellow Taoist Mao. He wonât be far.â
Daoist Mao Ding was instantly shocked. âCould it be that the two of you want to break the oath and kill someone?â This could not be allowed, how could a thunderbolt tribulation be a joke? âIf that is not the case, then I will not feel at ease. It is fine if I do not want this land.â
Taoist Red Star laughed and said: âFellow Taoist Mao is magnanimous, we brothers admire him. However, please do not worry, we will not kill anyone, but if there is anyone else who would cause trouble for him, it is none of our business.â
Daoist Mao Ding was surprised. âOh, Iâm willing to listen to the details.â
Taoist Red Star explained with a smile: âPreviously, this old man had sent me and my brother to kill a few people who were scouting outside of Nine Links Star Palace. I did not know the reason at first, but now, with the news from the Celestial Sovereign, I understand that the powers backing those people should be coming for the world where my teacher and the others are located. After my teacher ascended to the Immortal, those people would continue to linger outside of the Nine Links Star Palace, and I thought that they would still have ill intentions towards the Stellar Cliffs, waiting for an opportunity to seek revenge.
âWhat a great method to kill!â
âHowever, how could those cultivators know the whereabouts of Yang Junshan when the Nine Links Star Palace is so big?â
This time, before the Taoist Red Star could even speak, the Taoist Mo Ya by the side said: âThat Yang Junshan has been limited by five years and must return to his Circulatory World. Those people only need to wait for an ambush along the way, unless that Yang Junshan is willing to exceed the limit and lose his soul, otherwise, even if he knows that his journey is going to be dangerous and rushed, he would still have no choice but to take this path.â
Hearing that, Daoist Mao Ding immediately clapped his hands and laughed, âWhat a great plan. Not only was it able to obtain the most valuable treasure, it could also remove the hidden dangers in the area with the help of someone else. Even if that Yang Junshan managed to survive in the end and was restricted by five years of age, he would not be able to return to Stellar Cliffs to cause trouble for a short period of time.â
Taoist Red Star laughed: âAlso, even if that Yang Junshan wanted to take revenge on me in the future, Dao Friend Mao would have already refined a Dao Core, and I will increase Senior Brotherâs cultivation by thirty years, so Iâm afraid that he would have already advanced to the Huagaiâs field. At that time, even if I join hands with Senior Brother, without the support of these Seven Star residual array, we would still havlace in Nine Links Star Palace, and if that Yang Junshan doesnât come, then he will really come, and he will never return.â
The Taoist Mo Ya at the side could not help but say, âItâs still better to be cautious than to underestimate him. I have a feeling that this person is not to be underestimated, after all, this Seven Star residual array is his own doing.
The Taoist Red Star did not think so and replied: âDonât worry senior, there iule for array formations. As long as the array master hands over the array map, the power to control the array will be given away. At that time, even a slight change will cause the array to change. And for an array master to construct an array formation, wouldnât they also be faced with the risk of being silenced? Moreover, Senior Brother does not trust anyone else, nor does he trust his teacher who has already ascended to the Immortal Realm? After all, teacher bestowed this formation on the two of us before we left. If there really is a trick behind it, how could it be hidden from teacherâs eyes? â
When the Taoist Mo Ya heard Taoist Red Starâs words, the worry that was in his heart disappeared. Witare relaxed smile, he said, âIf thatâs the case, then weâll have to depend on Fellow Taoist Mao.â
Now that the spirit plants have all been gathered together and I havigh-grade treasure furnace, I have a sixty percent chance of refining this pill. According to the two dao friends, the treasure in the secret realm is enough to open three batches of Dao pills, but this old man will definitely be able to refine two of them, but this pill will be very rare, and it will take a very long time, and there wonât be the slightest disturbance in the process of refining it. As a result, the two of you will have to be patient for two years. â
The Taoist Red Star laughed, âDonât worry, Fellow Mao. Without the permission of the two of us, it is impossible to open the entrance to the secret realm. Fellow Mao only needs to focus on concocting pills and not be disturbed by anything else.â
Outside the Stellar Cliffs, in the shattered grounds where Yang Junshan and Celestial Sovereign had found the first completely preserved formation base, Yang Junshan who was supposed to have no choice but to leave the Nine Links Star Palace after five years and return to the Circulatory World, was now quietly lying in wait.
Outside the Nine Links Star Palace, in the direction of the return Circulatory World, a star ship was quietly moored behind a star. Although Meng Weiting and the other two Great Divine Cultivatoad received the warning of the Celestial Sovereign at the corner of the sky to leave the Nine Links Star Palace, they had left a large net on Yang Junshanâs path back that he had to take.
Outside of Circulatory World, the foreign powers who had also received the news also increased their patrols in the surrounding area, in case Yang Junshan decided to return to the cultivation world after escaping from the hands of Meng Weiting and the others, and get within a range of five hundred kilometers from the Circulatory World.
As the Lingxiao Hall climbed up the Immortal Cliff, the sensation created by an ordinary Huang Ting cultivator during his ascension still affected some people. They were similarly calculating the time period of Yang Junshanâs return, and this array master who had already stood at the edge of the gate of the array dao was currently receiving an unprecedented amount of attention from all the Great Divine Cultivator in the cultivation world.
