A swamp.

Several thousand-year-old wood charms roared in unison like guarding tree men.

"I just want a Spiritual Origin Bead from you...why should I be so stingy?"

Fang Xi shouted coldly and waved her hand.

A bloody lightning flashed across and hit a wooden charm!

In the blink of an eye, this wooden charm was turned into ashes by countless bloody lightnings.

When the other two wood charms saw this, they immediately retreated into the swamp and never dared to come forward again.

Fang Xi's face lit up when she saw this, and she quickly shot a spell towards a stone platform.

Buzz!

The stone platform roared, a gap opened, and rich spiritual energy flowed out.

Then...

A spiritual source bead slowly flew up from it and fell into Fang Xi's hand.

"It is indeed the Lingyuan Pearl. The quality should be better than the one at the previous auction..."

After careful inspection, the joy on his face became even more intense.

On that day, Fang Xi made a small plan to trap the master of Qianji Palace, and then immediately escaped thousands of miles away.

But I didn't expect that when passing by this swamp, I could find a spiritual source bead, which was an unexpected surprise.

"That's all... There are more and more high-level monks entering now, why not go to the Qingdi Palace first!"

Putting away the Lingyuan Pearl, Fang Xi recalled the map given by the old ghost.

This is where he has an advantage over other Nascent Soul cultivators. He can go straight to Huanglong and find the most cherished spiritual objects without bumping around like a headless fly.

Moreover, we will soon reach the end of the map given by the old ghost.

"I don't know what kind of benefits Zhan Tu has gained... He has the guidance of an old ghost, so he must have gained more than me."

Fang Xi sighed, feeling a little longing.

Thinking about it, you know that the benefits the old ghost gave to Zhan Tu must be more than what he gave to himself.

He transformed into a blue light and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

…

Qingdi Hall.

This palace is located in the center of Changqing Garden and is a complex of buildings that stretches for more than a hundred miles.

It is surrounded by cornices, painted walls, withered railings and jade inlays, and the whole body presents a bluish aura, shrouded in a layer of cyan mist, and only the surroundings can be roughly seen.

Even so, those strict runes and restrictions also made Fang Xi take a breath.

And around the Qingdi Palace, there were always several powerful spiritual consciousnesses lingering, making Fang Xi dare not get too close.

He thought for a while, came to a jungle, stretched out his hand and pressed it on an ancient tree.

In an instant, he seemed to feel the breathing of the ancient trees. The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter rotated, one withered and the other flourished...

Not long after, a ray of green light flashed from a spiritual flower, and a person walked out of it. It was Zhantu who came through the wood escape technique!

"meet again."

Fang Xi said hello and stared at the exhibition without trace: "Fellow Taoist has gained a lot..."

"Oh, needless to say... I encountered two Yuanying old ghosts who were chasing me, and I lost the treasure I finally obtained..."

Zhan Tu's face was full of bitterness, and he didn't know whether it was true or false.

"In front of you is the Qingdi Palace, but there seem to be a few Nascent Soul old monsters entrenched nearby... It's hard to attack."

Fang Xi suddenly sighed, and then stared at the exhibition with burning eyes: "I wonder what my fellow Taoist ghost has to say?"

Zhan Tu's eyes instantly turned yellow and he said in an old voice: "Ignore them... It's not yet the time for the Qing Emperor Palace to truly open."

"Really turned on?"

Fang Xi was a little confused.

"Haha... the ban on this palace is the most stringent in Evergreen Garden... After it was sealed back then, it would be impossible to enter it without waiting for most of Evergreen Garden to collapse."

The old ghost explained calmly: "But please don't worry, fellow Taoist, when the secret realm collapses, even if there are high-level monks coming in, it will be too late. We only need to go straight to the Qingdi Palace, then take away the treasures, and then use one of the ancient teleportation

Just leave the formation."

"Under the gaze of many Yuanying old monsters, it is really easy for Taoist fellow Taoist to enter the Qingdi Palace, take away the treasures and leave..." A hint of joking appeared on the corner of Fang Xi's mouth: "I have already got what I want.

I will never accompany you on such an adventure again..."

"Haha... Then how are fellow Taoists going to go out?" the old ghost and god asked on the ground.

"With so many monks coming to the secret realm, there is always a way out..." Fang Xi answered in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

Just when the atmosphere between the two parties gradually became tense, Zhan Tu suddenly spoke: "You two don't have to be so tense... I think the island owner also wants to help us, but there are still conditions."

Immortal cultivators are all human beings, so they naturally know what each other wants to say, but it is obviously impossible for the old ghost to take the initiative to surrender, so he needs to give him a step by step.

"Exactly...if you can give me the God Transformation chapter of the Ku Rong Jue, or the advanced magical power of the 'Ku Rong Xuan Guang', I wouldn't mind risking my life to accompany you, and go crazy with you."

Fang Xi said calmly.

"Haha... Why do fellow Taoists care so much about the technique of transforming into gods? Are you sure that you can successfully transform into gods in the future?" The old ghost chuckled.

"You don't need to know this."

Fang Xi's expression gradually turned cold.

"Even if I have these two inheritances, I cannot easily teach them due to certain oaths."

The old ghost suddenly said: "What's more... I do not have the follow-up magical power of Ku Rong Xuan Guang... but... in the Qing Emperor Palace, there may not be no relevant inheritance."

"Doesn't that mean you've found nothing? You're asking me to accompany you two on an adventure based only on what may exist?"

Fang Xi suddenly smiled brightly: "You two should know that this is impossible."

The old ghost was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing something, and finally snorted coldly: "I don't have the complete Ku Rong Jue of transforming into a god...but there is a fragment of the Ku Rong Jue, which tells the secret of the Nascent Soul's advanced transformation into a god...The theory

In terms of the above, combined with the Ku Rong Jue in the late Nascent Soul stage, one should be able to practice it to the early stage of divine transformation. This is the final bottom line."

"also may."

Fang Xi thought about it for a while and felt that the old ghost couldn't squeeze anything out of it, so she nodded.

The old ghost threw out an emerald green jade slip, which was caught by Fang Xi, who immediately examined it honestly and politely.

The old ghost looked at all this, but he sneered in his heart: "Of course the skills are real, but I don't know if you have the life to practice them. The Nascent Soul has not yet been achieved, so you are so ambitious... If it weren't for Qing Qing

It's not necessary to have multiple helpers during the trip to the Emperor's Palace... However, as long as this person dies in the Qing Emperor's Palace, it doesn't count as a violation of my oath.'

Next, Fang Xi and Zhan Tu hid in the jungle, using the essence of vegetation to cover themselves.

I don’t know how much time has passed...

Rumble!

The ground shook, and the wooden walls outside Evergreen Garden began to collapse piece by piece... A bright silver space storm flashed past, sucking pieces of spiritual land into it.

The ground trembled slightly, finally reaching the woods.

"Evergreen is destroyed, and the Green Emperor appears!"

"I've been waiting for so many years, and finally it's today."

From an ancient tree, an old ghost's thin voice came out: "Boy Zhan, it's time to take action."

Katcha!

A layer of bark was torn open, revealing Zhan Tu's figure.

But at this time, his face was withered, his cheeks were sunken, and his limbs were as skinny as wood, like a mummy.

This is the secret technique that comes with the 'Kurong Jue' - the technique of enduring death!

It is often used by monks when they are seriously injured to restrain all vitality and fall into a deep sleep to heal their injuries.

And with a little improvement, it can be like a rotten tree, without leaking any breath, and hidden among the vigorous spiritual trees that can be seen everywhere in the Evergreen Garden, which complements each other even more.

On the other side, Fang Xi also walked out of a tree hole, still looking like a pretty young man.

"Should we start?"

Fang Xi murmured.

"That's natural, but I'd better change my appearance first."

The old ghost said with a smile, it seemed that he had offended many monks before.

"Well, that makes sense."

Fang Xi thought of the Master of Qianji Palace, and immediately took out a piece of human skin from the storage ring, put it on her face, and changed into a black robe. She looked like a pill-forming demon whose face was covered with a layer of dark magic light.
