In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

This is not only a training exercise for Li Xiaoyao, but Dugu Yuyun also wants to use Li Xiaoyao to deal with Jiang Ming, who is trapped inside. Zhang Xiaoshan naturally does not want to interfere in the internal affairs of Shushan.

On the contrary, the Dharma box is of great importance, and Zhang Xiaoshan needs to deal with it in advance.

Shushan Grand Hall!

At this moment, Dugu Yuyun looked at the magic box in front of him in disbelief.

The evil sword immortal he imagined should be extremely violent, or at least exuding murderous aura, and could not possibly be suppressed by a magic box.

"Somewhat incredulous?"

"Please forgive me, senior, but I am quite surprised, after all, the Evil Sword Immortal and the magic box are so quiet."

"That was when he had just broken free of his seal and was not strong enough, so I forcibly sealed him away."

Moreover, this magic box is no ordinary magic box; it can isolate evil thoughts from the outside world, preventing them from absorbing external evil thoughts to strengthen themselves. Therefore, its strength has never increased.

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Xiaoshan broke the seal on the magic box.

Instantly, the box shimmered with golden light, and the black gas inside hissed and sizzled like kerosene.

Zhang Xiaoshan's seal was incredibly powerful back then, and with the aid of the golden light of merit, it was naturally easy to seal the Evil Sword Immortal when he was still in his nascent stage.

At this moment, the seal was broken, and the treasure box, which only emitted golden light of merit, naturally could not withstand the power of the Evil Sword Immortal.

Dugu Yuyun, seeing the evil black aura before him, believed Zhang Xiaoshan's words.

"Pure Yang Cauldron, suppress!"

Just as the Evil Sword Immortal was about to break free of his seal, Zhang Xiaoshan sent a palm-sized golden cauldron flying towards the top of the magic box, while a pure yang golden light enveloped the magic box.

At this moment, the magic box slowly opened, and a stream of black energy rushed out, trying to take the opportunity to leave.

However, under the pure yang golden light, the black energy crashed into the edge of the golden light as if it had hit a barrier, unable to break through the golden light cage in the slightest, and firmly imprisoning the black energy within it.

"It's you? Let me out! Let me out..."

"If you release me, I, the Evil Sword Immortal, will acknowledge you as my master and help you unify the Three Realms?"

"Unify the Three Realms? If I wanted to, would I need your help?"

Receive!

Amidst the Evil Sword Immortal's unwilling roar, the golden light slowly receded, trapping him inside the golden cauldron.

As the golden cauldron descended, Dugu Yuyun saw that the cauldron was filled with black mist, like a stagnant pool of water.

He knew that this was not because the Evil Sword Immortal had given up struggling, but because the binding power of the golden cauldron in front of him was too terrifying, and the Evil Sword Immortal simply had no power to struggle.

Pure Yang energy, purified!

When the Evil Sword Immortal was sealed, Zhang Xiaoshan was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoshan's cultivation had reached the final stage of Dao Integration, with the four volumes of the Pure Yang Dao Technique completed.

Returning to emptiness and merging with the Dao is the final step in Daoist cultivation!

Like a celestial being who has achieved perfect merit, one can ascend to heaven at any time.

However, Zhang Xiaoshan's Dao Integration Realm, based on the Pure Yang Dao Foundation and the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram, almost reached the realm of ancient gods and demons.

With only the power of pure Yang, the golden cauldron suddenly burst forth with dazzling, blazing light, like the scorching sun.

This is not just a beam of light; it contains energy at a temperature of at least tens of thousands of degrees Celsius.

Even when facing Zhang Xiaoshan's pure Yang energy, Dugu Jiansheng couldn't help but feel his primordial spirit being scorched.

This has nothing to do with good or evil, it's just a matter of power disparity.

When the pure yang energy is so abundant and powerful that it is beyond his prediction, not only will the demons that are restrained be purified by this power, but even the masters of the righteous sects will be purified by the pure yang energy.

That transcends the distinction between good and evil.

The black energy inside the golden cauldron vanished without a trace after the flash of blazing white light.

Undoubtedly, the Evil Sword Immortal was directly purified by Zhang Xiaoshan's pure Yang energy.

A century later, Zhang Xiaoshan was not at all surprised by the qualitative change in the pure yang power.

Moreover, with the assistance of the Xuanhuang Pure Yang Cauldron, the pure Yang energy is amplified by three times.

Over the years, thanks to the feedback from the Heavenly Dao Divine Patterns, the origin of the Pure Yang Cauldron is still above the imitation of the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan, and it has become Zhang Xiaoshan's natal 890 magic weapon.

"Senior, is that all?"

A century-long agreement, such a grand and solemn contract, yet Zhang Xiaoshan ended it all in just a few words?

Dugu Yuyun thought Zhang Xiaoshan would have to use some tricks.

Even though he had just witnessed Zhang Xiaoshan's terrifying pure yang energy.

"The Evil Sword Immortal has been unable to absorb evil thoughts from the outside world for many years, so he is already weak."

The reason we couldn't kill the Evil Sword Immortal back then wasn't because he was powerful. Rather, it was because he had no physical form and was outside the Three Realms and Five Elements, so we lacked the means to eliminate him.

Over the past century, the pure Yang Qi of the minor path has accumulated and undergone qualitative changes, and has become extremely pure and clean.

The pure Yang primordial energy, which was originally incapable of restraining the Evil Sword Immortal, became irresistible even to him once his cultivation surpassed the Void Refinement realm!

Ultimately, when one's strength reaches a certain level, any enemy is just a paper tiger.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan's strength was such that he wouldn't even consider the Evil Sword Immortal in his nascent stage, let alone the Evil Sword Immortal at his peak during the cataclysm.

Dugu Yuyun couldn't help but look at Zhang Xiaoshan with awe.

What kind of power did Zhang Xiaoshan possess back then? He annihilated ancient demons, intimidated the demonic forces of the ten directions, and even an irresistible being like the Blood Demon was wiped out by Zhang Xiaoshan's hands.

After going into seclusion, his strength underwent a qualitative change; I wonder what level he has reached now?

Chapter 991 The Drunken Sword Immortal Finally Arrives at the Ancient Water Demon Beast

For the next few days, Zhang Xiaoshan brought food to Zhao Ling'er every day.

Although it was a long distance, Zhang Xiaoshan's current cultivation level meant he could reach the Shu Mountain Sword Sect in no time.

Of course, this concern is nothing more than because they are descendants of Nuwa.

Furthermore, since Zhao Ling'er is imprisoned on the ninth floor of the Demon Locking Tower, even Li Yang cannot pass through directly. Only Zhang Xiaoshan delivering food is the most suitable option, so as not to disrupt the order of things.

After several days, on this day, Zhang Xiaoshan finally met the disheveled and worried Sword Immortal outside the Demon Locking Tower.

"Situ Zhong pays his respects to Senior!"

When the Drunken Sword Immortal arrived at Mount Shu, he heard news about Zhang Xiaoshan.

As an elder of Shu Mountain, he naturally knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was the big boss behind the Royal Merchant Guild, and had a very close relationship with Shu Mountain. Moreover, he had just recently emerged from seclusion.

As for Zhang Xiaoshan coming to deliver the food?

As Dugu Yuyun narrated, it was also a coincidence that Zhang Xiaoshan came to fulfill the century-old agreement, and the demon he was to eliminate was under the demon-suppressing pillar of Panlong Town.

It is both a coincidence and a number of days that were predicted a century ago.

Dugu Yuyun did not reveal the identity of the Evil Sword Immortal, as it concerned the reputation of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

Even the elders of Shushan, Dugu Yuyun had no intention of telling them.

"Your disciple went in?"

"Yes, senior. I am very grateful to you for bringing me meals during this time."

"It's a small matter. I'm on good terms with Senior Brother Changqing. As an elder, I can't remain indifferent when a junior suffers."

Moreover, given her status as a descendant of Nuwa, we cultivators cannot afford to be negligent.

Upon hearing this, the Sword Immortal suddenly realized the truth.

He suddenly understood that Zhao Ling'er had such a connection with Mount Shu. Zhao Ling'er was the granddaughter of the former head of Mount Shu, so it was normal for Zhang Xiaoshan to take care of her.

"You are a disciple of Mount Shu, and it is not appropriate for you to enter the Demon Locking Tower, so I will not talk to you any longer."

"Senior, walk slowly!"

The Demon Locking Tower is a forbidden area of ​​Mount Shu, and no disciple of Mount Shu is allowed to enter it.

Therefore, the Sword Immortal could only stop and not move forward. At the same time, Zhang Xiaoshan's figure disappeared, completely avoiding the main entrance.

"Senior!"

Zhang Xiaoshan delivered meals to Zhao Ling'er for several days in a row, which moved and impressed her.

At the same time, the radiant smile on the face of Nuwa's descendant dispelled much of the gloom on the ninth floor of the Demon-Sealing Tower; this was also due to the divine power of Nuwa's descendant.

It is not the power of competitiveness, but the power of love.

"Little girl, you seem to be in a much better mood than before."

"I am deeply grateful for your care during this time, senior. I am truly grateful."

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled and shook his head. He only regarded Zhao Ling'er as a junior; he wasn't young and impetuous.

Soon, the abundant and delicious food was devoured by Zhao Ling'er.

At the same time, Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Zhao Ling'er, who was stroking her belly, and chuckled:

"I saw the Sword Immortal when I delivered the food. He is also the master of that little lover."

I believe he will come down to find you soon, so I won't be coming tomorrow. After you go down the mountain, your task is to govern the Nanzhao Kingdom.

Little girl, you have a long road ahead of you!

With that, Zhang Xiaoshan turned and left, not giving Zhao Ling'er a chance to ask any questions.

They had only met briefly, and Zhang Xiaoshan had no intention of developing a close relationship with her. Their friendship stemmed from the previous generation, not from this young girl.

Upon hearing of Li Xiaoyao's arrival, Zhao Ling'er was thrown into turmoil and her face showed anxiety.

This is the Demon-Locking Tower, a forbidden area for demons and monsters, fraught with danger.

Moreover, Li Xiaoyao had to fight his way down to the ninth level, encountering all sorts of demons and monsters, so the dangers were even greater.

However, Zhao Ling'er quickly calmed down.

After all, even Zhang Xiaoshan had stated the outcome, so Li Xiaoyao was unlikely to be in any danger.

Moreover, given Zhang Xiaoshan's status and position, he wouldn't make things difficult for Li Xiaoyao, so Zhao Ling'er could only silently pray that Li Xiaoyao would have a safe journey.

···

"Senior brother, why don't we just wipe out the Moon Worship Cult as well when we go to the Nanzhao Kingdom?"

If you are entrusted with a task, you must be loyal to it!

Zhang Xiaoshan's purpose in this trip was to deal with the Water Demon Beast directly. As for the Moon Worship Cult Leader?

Zhang Xiaoshan had no intention of taking action, firstly because the Moon Worship Sect was the state religion of Nanzhao and held a legitimate position;

Secondly, since Baiyue lost the help of the Water Demon Beast, the damage to the main characters was not yet to the point of casualties, so it would be good for her to gain some experience.

"No need, the influence of the Moon Worship Cult is only in Nanzhao."

The beliefs of these ethnic minorities may seem unorthodox to us, but they consider them orthodox.

This is a cultural difference; there is no need to expel the Moon Worship Cult as a heretical sect.

Leaving the Moon Worship Cult to a few youngsters is just right; restoring order is the business of the descendants of Nuwa.

Upon hearing this, Li Yang pondered for a moment and understood Zhang Xiaoshan's concerns.

Now that they have gone back and expelled the Moon Worship Cult without any reason, they may be considered heinous demons.

Especially since they are disciples of the Kunlun Daoist sect, it will also arouse the dissatisfaction of the Southern Border Immortal Sect.

Why does Zhang Xiaoshan rarely get involved in matters concerning Mount Shu?

Even the Taoist sects are like this, let alone the Southern Frontier and the Central Plains, unless they subdue demons and monsters.

Otherwise, Zhang Xiaoshan would have no reason to take action in the Southern Frontier, as it would inevitably provoke the dissatisfaction of the Southern Frontier Immortal Sects, even if Zhang Xiaoshan was not afraid of these threats at all.

"Moreover, my agreement to help Dugu Yuyun was not truly out of sympathy."

The Water Demon Beast is one of the five ancient demons, possessing formidable strength comparable to a ten-thousand-year-old demon.

Especially since it is born from water and is immortal, like the Evil Sword Immortal, it is a primordial demon that cannot be killed by ordinary means. Only by sacrificing themselves could Nuwa's lineage seal it away.

"Senior brother, do you want to completely eradicate this scourge?"
