At the critical moment of life and death, a destructive divine fire rose from the depths of Watson's divine sea and slashed out.

When the divine fire rose, the Buddhist beads, golden Buddhas, and divine talismans were imprisoned by the old man's law of time, and they were chopped out as fast as lightning.

This is a scene that the old man who transformed into black mist never expected.

After Watson revealed all his trump cards, he didn't expect that he still had a way to save his life!

Just like when Watson awakened the eye of heavenly fire in front of his house, when his father and the blacksmith were defeated by bandits and the family's life was in danger.

After so many years of nurturing, this destructive flame is far from the power that eight-year-old Watson used back then!

Not to mention that his formless Dharma body is about to be completed now, and his body is equipped with the supreme mental and physical power of Buddhism!

The divine sword transformed by the divine fire is like a bright spring sun shining on the winter snow in the wilderness. It melts quickly in an instant and turns into snow water that seeps into the earth.

Watson, who was sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. This divine fire had been quiet for several days, and fell into a deep sleep after killing the monster.

Even he in the past could not always use this magical flame in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, just when he was about to be swallowed by the old man who wanted to lose his body, the divine fire once again used its huge power and cut the old man into the divine sea.

The moment the black mist disappeared, time resumed its movement, and many strange phenomena in the divine sea gradually disappeared.

The old man who wanted to seize Watson's body was swallowed up by the divine fire that Watson was born with at the last moment.

The old man, who has been practicing for thousands of years, finally waited until Watson pushed open the temple, and was about to escape from the trap... After some calculations, he was finally defeated by Watson's many trump cards.

In an instant, he became the nourishment of Watson's divine sea.

Watson, who opened his eyes, stared blankly at the Bodhisattva who had restored the appearance of the Buddhas on the Buddhist altar, and couldn't help but roared with all his strength.

There is great terror between life and death, and there is great fortune between life and death.

Unexpectedly, he had just arrived in the depths of Yinshan Mountain, not only killed countless monsters, but also swallowed the soul of this old man from an unknown era.

In this way, will one day be able to master the old man's law of time?

He felt that when he returned to Nanyun City, the first thing he would do was to go find the old monk and ask for details.

As long as Yelu Pearl is still in Nanyun City, the old monk should be there. Although he will not take action for the war in Southern Xinjiang, he has to take care of his precious disciple.

Before he could think everything through clearly, he heard a buzzing sound in the divine sea, and a force as huge as a torrential flood surged toward the meridians around his body.

…

In the palace of the city lord of Xichun City in the three towns of southern Xinjiang, an oil lamp illuminated the area three feet away. The city lord of Xichun, Ma Tianyun, was accompanying Hu Ge and the old monk.

After the good guys entered the city, Yelu Mingzhu took Lan Feiyan to go shopping.

The two girls had been tired all day and went back to the house early to rest.

Just because Ma Tianyun told her that in a few days, all the businesses here will move to Tianfeng City, and the three towns in southern Xinjiang will become three undefended empty cities.

This was also a major matter that Li Xiuyuan and Nalan Yu explained at the beginning.

There is no danger for the three towns to be defended. Rather than being destroyed by fire, it is better to hand them over to the South China Sea army.

Just like the battle with the grassland army back then, as long as there is no war, the Nanhai army will be defeated in front of Nanyun City in the coming year.

Three towns are still three towns, and there is no need to waste time and effort in rebuilding them.

Not to mention Nalan Yu and the emperor, even the old monk had to admire Li Xiuyuan's strategy. Since he couldn't defeat him, it was better to retreat.

Guard Nanyun City, a battlefield protected by countless huge magic circles, the moat doubled, and countless large pits dug.

Fight the invading enemy in the wilderness.

Back then, Li Xiuyuan taught Nalan Yu step by step, and now it was his turn to go into battle himself.

Looking at Hu Ge who was boiling water and making tea, the old monk sighed softly and said quietly: "Blacksmith, you have gained a good disciple!"

Brother Hu's hand holding the kettle shook, he looked at the old monk and asked blankly: "Master, what's wrong with my apprentice? Didn't you say that he is on the Yinshan Mountain with Xiaohei now?"

Ma Tianyun was not familiar with Watson, so he had to listen quietly.

The old monk smiled and said: "These disciples from Tianshan didn't expect that kid Watson to break through the tribulation. What a miracle!"

Hu Ge was startled when he heard this. He looked at Lao Shang and asked, "Where is Xiao Hei? What is that idiot doing now? He should be protecting Watson, right?"

"That little guy, he's snoozing right now."

The monk drank the remaining tea in the cup, waved to Ma Wuyun and said, "Go back and rest. It is estimated that the South China Sea Army has already landed on the shore and is gathering on the grassland."

Ma Tianyun nodded and replied: "In a few days, after the people and traders in the city have evacuated, we will return to Nanyun City."

After saying goodbye, he turned around and walked towards the living room.

The old monk looked at Hu Ge and said with a smile: "Xiao Hei likes to sleep. He can't help Watson at the moment. He has to rely on himself for everything."

Hu Ge took a deep breath and asked carefully: "Is there any danger?"

The old monk clapped his hands and stood up, walked out of the living room, and said with a faint smile: "He has already survived the most dangerous time. From now on, you will no longer be able to defeat your disciple."

A gust of wind passed by, and the old monk had disappeared into the living room.

Hu Ge was left alone in front of a pot of broken flowers and a lone lamp, muttering to himself: "Is this the end of the tribulation? Is it too soon?"

Even though he thought about it again and again, he never expected that Watson just went to the grassland and came back as a great monk in the five realms.

…

Above the Tianshan Mountains, it is the time when the sky is filled with stars.

Li Xiuyuan was sitting quietly under the eaves of the temple, silently feeling the power of starlight, thinking about when the old Taoist priest would start cultivating the body of starlight like Yelu Mingzhu.

The apricot blossoms in the Apricot Blossom Valley have turned into plump spring apricots, and the mountain wind blows by, bringing a faint floral fragrance.

The flowers planted by Hua Luo Yu are blooming in different seasons, allowing him to slowly appreciate the different flowers in the four seasons.

Just as he was sighing with emotion, he saw a breeze blowing in front of him, and a figure slowly appeared in front of him.

"Master, is it you?"

It had been a long time since he had seen the old Taoist priest, and Li Xiuyuan missed this master who had never been seen before.

"I'm not an old Taoist priest, but I'm willing to be your master, how about it?"

It was the voice of the old monk who answered him. It was a big deal for Watson to break through the tribulation and he wanted to tell Li Xiuyuan on Tianshan Mountain.

With Li Xiuyuan's current level of cultivation, he still has no way of knowing what happened to Watson far away in the depths of the grassland, above the Yin Mountains.

Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "Senior, if I follow you down the mountain looking like this, will anyone believe that I am your disciple?"

As the days passed, Li Xiuyuan had temporarily stopped casting the Shura Sword and planned to wait until winter before continuing to use the cold pool on Tianshan Mountain to quench it.

Perhaps at the last moment, I have to find a piece of jade in the river, peck it open, hide the Shura Sword in it, and put it in the cold pond to warm it up.

Just like the Sword in the Stone that the old ape gave him, and finally the Ruoshui Sword given to Shangguan Wushuang.

The old monk silently stared at the unmoving Li Xiuyuan at the table. In his eyes, he was still the heroic young man he met on the Shura battlefield.

Unexpectedly, not long after arriving in this world, he would transform from a handsome young man to an old man.

After sighing softly, the old monk was not in a hurry to tell Li Xiuyuan about Watson.

Instead, he asked quietly: "If at the last moment you fail to transform into a mortal in this world, will you regret your choice to follow the old Taoist priest and then come here to suffer hardships?"

Li Xiuyuan was stunned. He did not expect that the old monk would suddenly talk about his practice at night like this.

He lowered his head and thought carefully, and replied calmly: "This is my own choice, what should I regret? Not all efforts will be rewarded."

After all, the path he wants to take is different from Wu Xin. Li Xiuyuan knows how difficult it is for him to become mortal.

It seems that I am plowing fields and growing vegetables on the Tianshan Mountains, but my heart is always worried about the war coming to southern Xinjiang.

Can Nalan Yu command the entire battlefield, and can the children who descended from the sky survive that battle?

He was even thinking about whether Yelu Mingzhu would suddenly go to Feixian Island in the South China Sea to find trouble with his biological mother, and to find Yun Zhongchen to avenge his father's murder?

If the younger sister Yelu Mingzhu is not strong enough on her own, will Watson, the older brother, join her in the fight?

In the end, will the love and hatred in Yelu Palace evolve into the cause and effect of how many people practice on Tianshan Mountain?

But the origin of this cause and effect lies in his body on the Tianshan Mountains.

Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but ask: "Senior, where is my female disciple? Where is she now?"

"Mingzhu is a nice kid. She finally didn't cause me too much trouble. She is currently in Xichun City and has returned from the grassland with the little princess of the Lan family's court."

The old monk was also afraid that the incident of Yelu Pearl would affect Li Xiuyuan's state of mind, so he did not tell what happened on Feixian Island.

Perhaps in his opinion, those things were not troublesome to both master and disciple.

As for Lan Feiyan from the Lan Clan Royal Court, since she is Yelu Mingzhu’s friend, she will not have any impact on this battle.

Perhaps when the war breaks out, you can ask Yelu Mingzhu to send that little girl to you in Tianfeng City or the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion in the Five Realms Imperial City.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head gently, and after a while he replied: "This little girl actually abducted the little princess of the Lan family's royal court."

Having said this, the old monk looked at the Shura sword that was about to take shape beside the sword-making platform and said, "How about it? After you recast it, has this sword become lighter or heavier?"

"To be honest, I don't know either."

Upon hearing Lao Shang talking about his Shura Sword, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but laugh proudly: "I bought a lot of charcoal at the foot of the mountain..."
