Practice begins with immortality

Chapter 260 I'm Coming to Kill You

Longyuan, this precious land originated from the earth-shaking battle between the dragon and the phoenix in ancient times.

At that time, the giant dragon and the phoenix were fighting fiercely. The giant dragon was injured, and a strand of blood flowing from its body fell to the ground like a meteor.

This strand of blood, imbued with dragon power, gave birth to the Dragon Abyss after landing. This place is blessed with unique natural conditions, and the sound of dragon roars can often be heard from the abyss.

Because its spiritual power contains dragon energy, countless rare and precious dragon-related medicinal herbs grow there. Among them, the most famous are the dragon blood grass and dragon scale fruit.

The dragon blood grass is red as blood, with dragon veins faintly visible on the leaves. It is said that dragon creatures can enhance their blood strength after taking it; and the dragon scale fruit is shaped like dragon scales, with an extremely hard skin and sweet and juicy flesh inside. It has the magical effect of cleansing the marrow and strengthening the bones, allowing cultivators to possess the power of a dragon.

For ages, Longyuan has been a place of opportunity coveted by countless cultivators within the Celestial Spirit Realm. Countless powerful individuals flocked here, hoping to find a rare herb or two and soar to prominence. However, since the Ji family's rise to prominence within the Celestial Spirit Realm, everything has changed.

The Ji family, relying on their immense power, seized Longyuan and declared it a forbidden area. From then on, anyone who dared to enter without permission, except for members of the Ji family, would be hunted down by the Ji family.

At this moment, when Wang Bai was slaughtering the Ye family, he was far away in the depths of Longyuan.

"Someone is slaughtering my bloodline!" A cry of shock and anger suddenly rang out. A beautiful woman in a five-colored fairy dress, with a graceful figure, had been meditating with her eyes closed. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, her beautiful features filled with disbelief and raging anger.

"Damn it, who is so bold? How dare he do such a cruel thing to someone from my clan!" The beautiful woman roared with gritted teeth, her voice full of murderous intent.

"No, I must rush back to my clan immediately. No matter who this murderer is, even if he has the ability to see through the heavens and the earth, I will tear him into pieces to vent my hatred!"

Thinking of those people from the Ye family, especially the high-level cultivators, they were all the blood bags that he had carefully cultivated to survive the tribulation, but now they are all dead, making all the years of hard work go to waste!

The resentment in the beautiful woman's heart grew stronger at the thought of this. She suddenly transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-long five-colored divine bird, trying to fly out of Longyuan.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared not far ahead. This person was tall and straight, with an extraordinary aura. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a dragon-headed man with a single horn.

The dragon-headed man raised his hand and gently waved it. An invisible force instantly stopped the Phoenix Dharma Body that was about to leave, and he called out, "Fellow Daoist Ye, wait a moment. I wonder why you are so angry?"

The person who came was none other than Ji Xuanlong.

Hearing Ji Xuanlong's voice, the woman stopped, turned around, and said with a slightly relaxed expression: "Friend Ji, this is what happened..."

Then, Ye Xuanqing, the ancestor of the Ye family, recounted to Ji Xuanlong everything that had happened. Ji Xuanlong listened quietly, his face expressionless, but his eyes occasionally flashed with a hint of thought.

After Ye Xuanqing finished speaking, Ji Xuanlong was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "Fellow Daoist Ye, with your reputation, you are also well-known among the many fellow Daoists who are transcending tribulations."

"What's more, your Ye family is also full of experts, with no less than ten cultivators in the Fusion Stage. But now the other party was able to slaughter them all. This shows that this person must also be a powerful cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage."

Having said this, Ji Xuanlong paused, then continued, "So in my opinion, for the sake of safety, you should not act rashly. Why not wait until we successfully complete the Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness Method and break through the realm of cultivation together, then go and settle the score with that person."

"For this matter, you and I have spent nearly a thousand years, finally harmonizing the dragon and phoenix powers within us. Judging from our current progress, in just twenty to thirty years, you and I will be able to successfully break through to the second level of the Tribulation Realm. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we simply cannot miss it!"

After hearing Ji Xuanlong's persuasion, Ye Xuanqing slowly calmed down.

She took a deep breath, and the dazzling phoenix body gradually retracted. Then her body shook and instantly returned to human form.

Ye Xuanqing's expression was still somewhat gloomy, but her tone had softened considerably. She bowed slightly to Ji Xuanlong and said softly, "It is true that I lost my composure in the moment of impulse. Thank you, Daoist Xuanlong, for clearing my doubts and guiding me."

Seeing this, Ji Xuanlong smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing to worry about. Then he asked, "So, what is Fairy Ye planning to do next?"

A cold glint flashed in Ye Xuanqing's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Humph! Let that man linger for another twenty or thirty years. When I achieve mastery of my magical powers, it will be time to settle the score with him!"

Ji Xuanlong nodded and said in agreement, "That's great. With Fairy Ye's talent, she will definitely be able to kill the enemy by then."

After saying this, the two smiled at each other and prepared to turn around and return to their previous place to continue their retreat and cultivation.

But just as they took a step, suddenly, they heard a deafening roar from the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying sword beam as solid as a bolt of lightning slashed down from the sky at a speed that was simply jaw-dropping.

At the same time, a roar filled with murderous intent and anger resounded through the sky: "Old man, I'm here to kill you!"
