In an instance, Lu Shouyi’s sword gleamed like the tail of a comet and it mercilessly locked on Zhang Lingxian.

Zhang Lingxian saw that and was fuming, “Do you really want to go against me?”

He revolved his mana and released rays of green lights to shield himself; at the same time, he tossed a piece of jade up high. As the piece of jade went up in mid-air, it released numerous green wind daggers that ferociously spread out across the void.

Lu Shouyi was surrounded by a peaceful Dao melody that fiddled the void. He moved his body and was able to avoid the wind daggers. This was indeed a brilliant method of self-defense as Lu Shouyi was able to invade the void that was filled with wind daggers.

The sword gleamed in extreme brightness and it pierced through Zhang Lingxian’s light of shield as the shield convulsed. The wind daggers surrounded the sword’s gleam but as Lu Shouyi tapped on it, the wind daggers retreated back. Blood spilled out from Zhang Lingxian’s mouth, it was obvious that he was no match against Lu Shouyi.

Bai Suhuan witnessed the scene and flexed his finger to trigger the water and fire. He still had some strength within him even if he was fighting against Gu Caiwei. Furthermore, he had great vision and could tell that Lu Shouyi had damaged Zhang Lingxian with little effort. At this very moment, his Qi dynamic was not stable as he counter-attacked Lu Shouyi who was in the process of exchanging his Qi.

There was a strong blasting sound as the fire and water inter-stimulated each other to attack Lu Shouyi. The force of the power was terrorizing.

He did not have the time to regather the sword gleam and could only use his palm to release his mana. In a split second, he converted thousands of palms to a single palm and threw it continuously like an endless stream of clouds.

When the palm and the fire-water forces collided, it produced loud crashing flash flood-liked sound. The tremors of the collision were so strong as if the earth was about to split open.

The tremors had inflicted some damage to Lu Shouyi as his meridian points were shaken, causing him some pain. As a result, he could not summon the mana and that was when he realized that Bai Suhuan was far beyond his level.

He took three steps backward as the earth cracked open and absorbed some of the excess force.

Bai Suhuan said coldly, “Kiddo, I advised you to not get involved in this matter. It took you so much effort to reach this level.”

Lu Shouyi forcefully suppressed his boiling temper, “Doyen Bai, why are you doing something like this? Are you not afraid that Zhenren Ziling and the Chief would question you?”

Bai Suhuan smirked in his mind and thought to himself, “It would take Ziling another ten to twenty years or so to come back and we don’t know the status of Shen Lian. Now that my time is about to end, who cares about things like that?”

In contrast to his thoughts, he said, “I served the school without any guilt. If Gu Caiwei is up to no good, why wouldn’t she tell us about Shen Lian’s whereabouts and why is she holding on to the celestial medicine and is not willing to hand it out?

In a loud voice, Zhang Lingxian said, “Everyone, please listen to what I have to say. I have been trying to find out about the Chief’s whereabouts from Gu Caiwei for days. She would tell me that the Chief is on a solitary retreat. But when I tried to probe further on his location, she wouldn’t answer me. Doesn’t that sound fishy to you? Qing Xuan is going through a critical point now, you people have to clear your eyes and not follow the evil generation.”

Gu Caiwei had cut off her five senses and she could not feel any of the external disturbance. The Taixu Divine Qi was operating in full force, trying to complete Dan Dao.

Zhang Lingxian’s words had provoked the morale of his people. Furthermore, as Lu Shouyi was defeated by Bai Suhuan, the disciples behind Gu Caiwei started to shake.

“Doyen Zhang, how about you tell us who is part of this evil generation?”

A young Daoist dressed in a feather robe and a star-shaped crown could be seen from some distance away. He seemed like a thousand feet away but in a blink of an eye, he was by the side of Gu Caiwei.

He barely had any expression on his face but his eyes were deep and clear as he locked his vision on Zhang Lingxian and Bai Suhuan.

Concurrently, he placed his hand on Gu Caiwei to increase the dynamic of her Qi. Bai Suhuan started shaking and took back his Qi dynamics. He had an unreadable calm expression on his face.

Zhang Lingxian was stunned to see Shen Lian. Shen Lian’s deep eyes took a glanced at him and he felt a sudden mountain-like weight pressing on his chest, causing him to have trouble speaking.

Bai Suhuan said, “Since Shen Lian has appeared, let’s make things clear. My doomsday is near and I would like to request for the celestial medicine to prolong my life. Gu Caiwei wasn’t cooperative and didn’t want to tell us about your whereabouts and that lead to what happened today.”

It was perfectly justifiable for cultivators to seek immortality, especially that his doomsday was about to arrive, and it somewhat still made sense for him to do something so out of ordinary like this.

Shen Lian took a glance at Bai Suhuan and then radiated five rays of light – green, yellow, red, black and white; the five colored Qi of essence. The rays of light wrapped around him and that was quite a magical scene.

He flexed a finger and the ray of black Qi of essence dashed towards Zhang Lingxian and his company. Within a spark, it has brushed through Zhang Lingxian, forcing him to fall to the ground. He cast a spell and in no time, everyone around Bai Suhuan collapsed to the grown defenselessly.

With such minimal effort, it could be seen that Shen Lian’s skills were at the level of a celestial Buddha.

Shen Lian smiled, “Doyen Bai, how did you hear about the celestial medicine?”

He took down Zhang Lingxian in front of everyone without saying too much and he went straight to the point when questioning Bai Suhuan.

Bai Suhuan answered with a low voice, “I found it out by chance.”

“And what do you mean by chance?” Shen Lian probed further.

Bai Suhuan kept a straight face, he did not answer but instead asked another question, “Looks like you’re doubting me and you’re not willing to give me the celestial medicine.”

Shen Lian replied, “That’s right, I am indeed suspicious of you.”

Bai Suhuan sighed, “I am willing to surrender my life savings to trade for the celestial medicine. I don’t have any other requests, you have to grant me this.”

Shen Lian said, “You have to first tell me where you’ve heard about the celestial medicine and I will consider it. If you don’t, I won’t hand it over to you.”

Bai Suhuan replied in a low voice, “We shall let the winner decide then. If you are defeated, you will have to hand over the celestial medicine. I guarantee that I will never give any further trouble to Qing Xuan in the future.”

Shen Lian calmly responded, “Sure, you will be convinced, in heart and by word.”

He moved slightly and a ray of clear Qi dashed through the door’s Dao restriction to reach thousands of feet high up the sky. At this very moment, the clouds were floating by Shen Lian as he sparkled in five different colors. It was indeed eye-catching. At the same time, he howled with a clear voice, stirring the wind and clouds; he was in an imposing form.

Bai Suhuan too did not slack. He released clear Qi from his body and swept through the clouds to produce strong windy clouds above his head. Both of their Qi dynamics were like an intertwined long cable. As the sky darkens, the wind and rain took over.

It was the intertwining of their Qi dynamics that caused a changed in the Yin and Yang forces of the universe and as a result, the heaven and earth responded accordingly.

Bai Suhuan’s Code of the Bright Moon had entered the transformation state and was considered one of the top cultivators in the universe. Compared to the likes of Huanzhen, he was not too far inferior from that. Shen Lian’s mana may have increased tremendously but it was still not an easy feat to take down his opponent.

As Gu Caiwei lost the external force, she fell on her knees as the eight Qi of Taixu flows and the entire vitality of the Taiyi Peak came together. The Qi of vitality came by like a wave and it shook the disciples surrounding her. The disciples were generally skillful but they were still stunned by the scene, as it was a sign of Huandan.

A pact of disciples silently surrounded Gu Caiwei to protect her. They cannot afford to be distracted by the fight between Shen Lian and Bai Suhuan.
