Chapter 1495
As the head protector of the confluent sect, Shangguan Ruoxian might not be the person she was most at ease with, but she was the first person to fall under Murong Qingtian’s command and follow him for the longest time.
For the past thousand years, confluent sect had constantly expanded and expanded. Murong Qingtian’s killing techniques were decisive and ruthless, not only towards his enemies, sometimes even towards his own people.
The so-called Four Protectors were Golden Immortals and Twelve Pure Yang Enforcers. It was unknown how many times they had changed in a thousand years.
The only difference was that his position was constantly changing. From Pure Yang Enforcer to Protector Golden Immortal, from Third Protector to Second Protector, and then to Chief Protector.
Thus, Shangguan Ruoxian understood that his days in confluent sect were about to end.
His nearly thousand years of experience in the confluent sect had told Shangguan Ruoxian that, according to the “traditions” of the confluent sect, all the past lead protectors of the confluent sect, the Golden Immortal s, would eventually follow the “conspiracy and betrayal” path that they had to follow in order to be “heartbroken” when they were discovered by Sect Master Murong Qingtian.
When the head protectors of the confluent sect were killed, they were all peak Golden Immortals whose cultivation base was around five breaths of air.
Although Shangguan Ruoxian’s cultivation had not yet reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm, but a few decades ago, he had managed to increase her cultivation from the five energies to the large success stage.
In the following decades, Shangguan Ruoxian’s cultivation did not improve at all, but this was not because his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, but because he did not dare to takeek at the path to the next realm.
Until a few months ago, Yang Junshan and Murong Qingtian had erupted into a great battle that shook the starry sky. Although the two of them were exiled by a witch who suspected that they were from Dao level, when Shangguan Ruoxian saw that Murong Qingtian’s Soul Lamp was not extinguished, he understood that once Murong Qingtian returned to confluent sect, she would be the first one to be killed.
Murong Qingtian would never be like the previous Chief Protector Golden Immortal, giving him the chance to level up to the pinnacle of the Five Elements in the future.
Therefore, he had to save himself!
He had no choice but to save himself!
And this was undoubtedly the best time for him to leave the confluent sect.
He could have just left, but Shangguan Ruoxian was not willing!
He had worked for the confluent sect for nearly a thousand years, yet in the end, he had obtained such an outcome.
“Even if I have to leave, I must definitely leave behind an unforgettable lesson for the confluent sect. Not only for myself, but also for the three chief protectors of this old man previously!”
Shangguan Ruoxian was very clear on where the most important thing about the confluent sect was. Even though Murong Qingtian had been on guard the entire time after he had become the great protector, he was still considered to be one of the only two Celestial Sovereign that had witnessed the entire process from scratch. Even if Shangguan Ruoxian did not do anything, it was still enough to create a network of people in every corner of the confluent sect that he could use to spread her tentacles.
Of course, the confluent sect’s encampment was filled with a large amount of cultivation resources, but Shangguan Ruoxian knew that most of them were used for the sect’s low level cultivators below the Immortal Realm.
The true essence of the entire confluent sect was actually focused on the six long boat, and amongst them, the only one in the sect that the Three Protectors personally controlled was the essence of the six long boat.
Shangguan Ruoxian even suspected that with Murong Qingtian’s personality, perhaps even Yu Ruotong himself did not know what exactly was hiding above the long boat.
As for the Four Protectors, Lu Ruoming, being so stupid as to occupy the sect’s encampment, in an attempt to split up the confluent sect’s forces for his own use, Shangguan Ruoxian believed that she was courting death.
Shangguan Ruoxian’s goal was to take the essence of her family that Murong Qingtian had accumulated for thousands of years from the galactic longboat and then leave to hide far, far away. With the help of these high level cultivation resources, it was possible for him to advance her Great Luo Wonderland in the future.
In order to obtain’s trust, Shangguan Ruoxian had even persuaded the other Pure Yang Enforcers to come over, and the four Star Boahat were in charge of the sect to reunite with Yu Ruotong, and to give all of the control of the Star Boat s over to him.
And it seemed that luck was completely on Shangguan Ruoxian’s side as well. Yang Junshan’s sudden assault caused Yu Ruotong to completely control the ship’s formation, but when she attempted to surround and kill Yang Junshan, she no longer had any spare energy to pay attention to Shangguan Ruoxian’s movements. It allowed him to easily dive into the depths of the Acupoint Charging long boat’s cabin.
Along the way, Shangguan Ruoxian never opened a single cabin door that was filled with all kinds of light.
Even though Shangguan Ruoxian knew that behind every cabin door, there would probably be many treasures that Murong Qingtian had meticulously collected over the years. Every single treasure inside would definitely be able to move the immortal’s heart.
But the moment he touched and opened one of the cabin doors, the seal would immediately activate, and Yu Ruotong would immediately know.
“If the information this old man received over two hundred years ago was not bad, according to the previous Golden Immortal Protector’s deduction, there should be a secret compartment completely hidden at the bottom of this long boat.”
Not long after the previous Chief Protector, the Golden Immortal, discovered this secret compartment, he disappeared.
After that, Murong Qingtian explained that the Golden Immortal Protector had left the confluent sect and was traveling in the starry sky to find the opportunity to advance to the Great Luo.
However, what he did not know was that, on the eve of the previous chief protector, the Golden Immortal, going missing, he had a premonition that he had secretly left a message for Shangguan Ruoxian …
“It’s here!”
When Shangguan Ruoxian went down the stairs and reached the fifth wooden board, following the seal left by the former Chief Protector, the Golden Immortal, a passage appeared in the originally empty space. At the end of the passage was a spatial door that was completely sealed by a Divine Light Inhibition Formation.
Shangguan Ruoxian was overjoyed. She quickly took two steps forward and followed the spatial tunnel to the spatial gate. A short while later, she opened the spatial restrictions in front of him.
After the door opened, there were only five objects floating in the air, three of which were placed within the box.
And Shangguan Ruoxian’s gaze immediately fell on one of the painting axes, unable to shift away.
“Five Elements Dynasty’s Primordial Diagram!”
This was an inheritance diagram that could be used to comprehend the profound mysteries of the fusion of the five elements and the five viscera of the Five Elements.
As long as a cultivator’s mind was on the road, they would havigh chance of comprehending the mysteries of the fusion of the five elements. This would allow them to easily cross the barrier and reach the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm.
Shangguan Ruoxian’s eyes burned with passion as she reached out to grab the scroll.
But at this time, a sense of warning suddenly appeared in his heart, and Shangguan Ruoxian turned his hand to his side and slashed.
“Pah!”
A crisp sound reverberated through the air, causing the space channel to shake violently.
Shangguan Ruoxian took a step back and turned around. A short spear appeared above her head, but when she looked at the source of the sneak attack, her expression changed and she exclaimed: “Great Protector Yi Xuan, you’re still alive?”
The person who had launched the sneak attack was none other than the person who had discovered the existence of the long boand managed to inform Shangguan Ruoxian about the previous chief protector of the confluent sect, the Golden Immortal Profound!
But facing Shangguan Ruoxian’s shock, Yi Xuan remained expressionless, and continued to raise his slightly stiff arms, grabbing towards Shangguan Ruoxian.
At this time, Shangguan Ruoxian saw that the ex-head protector’s nails were as black as sharp blades, and it was obvious that they were highly toxic.
No, there was blood on it!
Shangguan Ruoxian suddenly opened his palm, and saw a faint trace of blood on his palm. But now, black blood was seeping out from it!
“Corpse poison, you are not Great Protector Yi Xuan, you are a zombie, no, a zombie puppet, Murong Qingtian refined you into a zombie puppet!”
Shangguan Ruoxian focused on asking as she operated the immortal elemental energy in her body to expel the poison that was seeping into her blood.
Before Shangguan Ruoxian could finish her sentence, the expressionless Golden Immortal Mystical Pavilion stepped forward again, her palms condensed into claws, grabbing towards Shangguan Ruoxian. Boom!
“You still want to repeat the same trick?”
Shangguan Ruoxian shouted coldly, a short spear shot out from her head, directly piercing through the Immortal-ranked puppet’s hands.
However, the Immortal-Stunned Puppet’s Immortal body was extremely tough, and it didn’t feel any pain at all. Instead, it clenched its short spear tightly, causing the Immortal-Stunned Puppet’s body to constantly be pushed back by the force of the short spear.
But at this moment, Shangguan Ruoxian suddenly felt something strange in the space behind him. Light continuously flashed under her feet, and her figure continuously changed positions in the spatial tunnel.
At the same time, another slightly stiff figure also changed its form behind him, attempting to catch up with Shangguan Ruoxian’s speed.
Shangguan Ruoxian formed a seal with her hands and pressed it to both sides. Several spatial barriers formed the instant he left, and after that, she was forcefully smashed into pieces by the deity chasing behind him.
However, the space barrier that was broken also cut open the Immortal’s stiff body, leaving behind countless bloodless wounds. Although it didn’t cause any damage to the Immortal-stiff Puppet, it was still able to slightly slow it down.
Shangguan Ruoxian was able to turn her body and catch her breath for a moment. Her gaze swept over the Celestial stiff that was chasing him just now, and shouted: “It really is Great Protector Feng Ying!”
Great Protector Feng Ying was the predecessor of Great Protector Yi Xuan, and was also the second chief protector of confluent sect, the Golden Immortal!
He remembered that when Shangguan Ruoxian had just become a Golden Immortal, it was right before and after Protector Feng Ying went missing.
Never would he have thought that regardless if it was the third person’s Great Protector Yi Xuan or the second generation’s Wind Shadow, both of them had already been refined into Immortal-ranked puppets by Murong Qingtian.
Fortunately, after being refined into Immortal Deity puppets, although the two of them still retained the strength of Golden Immortals, their cultivation bases were only at the early Golden Immortal Stage.
Otherwise, with the two stiff puppets being at the peak of the Golden Immortal Stage, how could Shangguan Ruoxian, who was only at the peak of the fifth layer, be their opponent?
However, since confluent sect’s second and third protector had already been trained to becomigid puppet, then how likely was it that confluent sect’s first protector would not end up like this?
A gale of wind came from behind him. He didn’t even need to ask to know that it was probably the third Immortal-Stunned Puppet!
At the same time, the other two Immortal-Stunned Puppets charged towards him from different directions.
Three early stage Golden Immortal Realm puppets that were not afraid of death attacked at the same time. Even though Shangguan Ruoxian had mastered her five energies, she understood that it was time to fight.
Following an explosive sound, the secret warehouse of the secret space immediately collapsed. The five treasures were immediately swept away by the spatial turbulence, and the resulting spatial storm spread inside the long boat, destroying everything in it.
