Chapter 25 Jinguang Taoist
Xu Ming watched He Yinglian, using the unique swordsmanship of the Green Lotus Sect, suppress Wuweizi of the Taibai Sword Sect, feeling extremely pleased.
The members of the Taibai Sword Sect had always been arrogant, claiming that with a sword from Taibai, they were unmatched, and they looked down upon the Green Lotus Sect, thinking they only relied on the fame of Fairy Biyou to have some prestige in the so-called Sword Dao.
Now that He Yinglian suppressed Taibai, it truly vented the bitterness in his heart, making him feel very comfortable. However, to avoid angering these sword maniacs, he still tried hard to restrain his facial expressions to prevent himself from bursting into laughter.
Just then, a faint, unknown fragrance drifted over, smelling slightly of chrysanthemum, filling him with curiosity about its origin.
However, before he could ponder it for long, he found himself unable to move, and knowing the strange fragrance was poisonous, he hurriedly tried to summon his mana, but found that the normally docile mana now felt like a huge mountain, unmovable no matter how his soul struggled, he couldn't help but think: What a potent poison.
The several elders nearby also noticed something was wrong, but by then it was too late and they too couldn't move.
"It would be better for all of you not to waste your strength. This poison is my meticulous creation, crafted from one hundred and eight precious materials in a medicine furnace over eighty-one days, ensuring that even if a Great Luo Immortal came today, he wouldn't be able to move a bit," a voice declared.
As the voice fell, a Taoist slowly stepped forward, wearing a striking red Qiangjin crown, dressed in a deep black silk robe, stepping in green, billowing cloud-stepping boots, and wearing a yellow, flowing official's tassel.
He was tall yet very gaunt, with prominent cheekbones and a thin strand of goatee, he was none other than the current State Preceptor of the Great Chen Dynasty, Jinguang Taoist.
"Jinguang Taoist, what is your purpose in poisoning us?" someone fiercely questioned.
"Nothing much, merely that I need to refine something and am missing one ingredient. I hope you all can assist," Jinguang Taoist replied leisurely, fingers twirling his goatee.
"What are you missing?" Hope ignited in them, as where there's a need, there's room for negotiation.
"What's missing is the flesh of cultivators on Earth. Since all of you cultivate the Primordial Spirit and the Great Dao, these bodies are just useless carcasses that you will eventually discard. Wouldn't it be perfect to give them to me?"
The wind howled and the rain poured, making it impossible for the soldiers to fight in such conditions, forcing them to retreat.
The rain grew heavier, seeming to turn the entire world into a water world. In this torrential downpour, a Scholar slowly walked out from the curtain of rain. Dressed in ordinary scholarly attire with a treasured sword at his waist and holding a list of unknown material in his hand, he walked leisurely through the heavy rain, yet his clothes remained completely dry.
"Where did this Scholar come from, daring to meddle in my affairs?" Jinguang Taoist glared furiously.
The answer was a fierce wind borne with heavy rain transforming into a massive wave that crashed down directly at him. Jinguang Taoist hastily tried to resist the wave with his mana, but he was swept away like a solitary boat in the storm.
"Big Brother Lu!" He Yinglian exclaimed with joy, she had not expected Lu Yu to appear by her side in her moment of despair, just as he had years ago.
"Summoning wind and rain?" Several elders recognized the Divine Skill Lu Yu was using; it was clearly the technique of summoning wind and rain recorded in the Heavenly Book.
Jinguang Taoist was blown away by the giant wave and skidded across the ground for dozens of meters before he could stop. He stood up and glared fiercely at Lu Yu, "Seeking death!"
Pulling out a small furnace, he blew gently and a faint yellow smoke flew towards Lu Yu, obviously the same poison that had afflicted the crowd earlier, only now it seemed much more potent.
The smoke struggled to advance in the rain and barely reached near Lu Yu. Lu Yu then summoned the Treasure Vase and the virulent poison that Jinguang Taoist took pride in was all sucked into the vase.
"Thanks for the State Preceptor's poison!" came Lu Yu's calm voice, which infuriated Jinguang Taoist to the point of steaming with rage.
He then took out his own treasured sword and charged at Lu Yu. At this moment, the world was already surrounded by water and since Lu Yu was primarily trained in Water Arts, he naturally maneuvered the water waves with ease and blocked all of Jinguang Taoist's attacks.
Seeing his prolonged attacks were in vain, Jinguang Taoist grew increasingly anxious and yelled, "Are you not going to take action? Don't you want your treasured medicine?"
As soon as these words fell, the Lord of the Great Chen appeared holding the Jade Seal, "State Preceptor, don't deceive me. I have yet to see the treasured medicine you promised me!"
Though he spoke these words, the Lord of the Great Chen knew that he and Jinguang Taoist were bound together for better or for worse and must support each other fully.
