Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 2172 - 2177: Never Expected That!

"Dao Venerable!"Seeing the Dao Venerable, Elder Yuan Ji and the other three immediately became respectful.

They were also extremely curious.

The powerful expert who had been fighting here—just who was it?

As for who knew the answer, it was probably only the Dao Venerable.

"What is going on? I was only gone for half a day!"

For the first time, Daoist Venerable Immeasurable's face darkened with black lines in front of everyone.

"Dao Venerable, please forgive us!"

Elder Yuan Ji was so scared he almost fell to his knees.

"Earlier, there was a boundlessly powerful aura here. The one who took action was at least at Dao Venerable level, so I, Yuan Ji, could not approach and was unable to obtain any information."

"That aura was indeed not something you could resist. This matter damages the face of our Immeasurable Hall. Pass down my order: this news must not be allowed to spread!"

Daoist Venerable Immeasurable ordered with majesty.

"Yes!"

"Right, wasn't that newly admitted disciple together with you? Where is he?"

"Reporting to Dao Venerable, Junior Brother Liu previously returned to Immovable Peak, and the battle here seems to have already spread to Immovable Peak. He might have…"

Ye Ruoxue did not continue.

Xia Liu might have been wiped out under that pressure…

"Immovable Peak, two hundred li away, was indeed affected, but Liu Xia seems to be fine."

The Island Master Immeasurable swept out with his vast Divine Sense and immediately saw Xia Liu hiding inside a certain Cave.

"Oh! Liu Xia is fine, his Divine Sense is excellent! He definitely knows some information!"

"Right, right! Junior Brother Liu might have witnessed the course of that duel!"

"Good!"

With that said, the Island Master Immeasurable's figure disappeared as he quickly flew toward the Cave where Xia Liu was.

Elder Yuan Ji also did not wish to miss out and hurriedly chased after the Dao Venerable.

Immovable Peak.

Its name came from the gathering of countless high peaks.

Among them, the Cave where Xia Liu was was extremely simple.

There was not much Spiritual Energy stored there either.

This might just be the conditions a new disciple ought to have.

"Liu Xia, come out and meet me."

Xia Liu was inside the Cave, putting on an act of trembling.

Suddenly, a Spirit Sound imbued with Chaos Primordial Limitless rang in his ears.

"It's the Daoist Venerable Immeasurable!"

"Don't worry, go meet him. The injuries on your body are not very serious. I can use a Secret Technique to conceal them."

Bai Jue transmitted his voice.

"Alright!"

When it came to acting, Xia Liu feared no one.

With Bai Jue's help, even Daoist Venerable Immeasurable could not possibly see any flaws.

"But why do I feel that Daoist Venerable Immeasurable is a bit…"

"A bit what?"

Xia Liu quickly asked.

"Nothing. Go shoo him away first."

Bai Jue was in no hurry to draw a conclusion.

This matter still required further observation.

"Alright then."

Not long after, Xia Liu walked out of the Cave.

His whole body was still shaking stiffly.

"Liu Xia, you don't need to be afraid. Relax, and tell me everything you just saw."

Daoist Venerable Immeasurable carefully examined him and found that, aside from severe depletion of Spiritual Energy, there was nothing unusual on Xia Liu.

"Dao Venerable, I don't know what happened. When I returned to the Cave, a suffocatingly strong pressure shook me. I detonated all my Spiritual Power, and only then barely survived the calamity."

Xia Liu spoke with lingering fear.

"Oh? You didn't see anything?"

"No! This disciple didn't even dare step out of the Cave entrance, afraid that I would be crushed by that pressure."

Xia Liu's expression was extremely firm.

There was not the slightest hint he was joking.

"Liu Xia! You must not hide anything from the Dao Venerable! Otherwise…"

At this time, Elder Yuan Ji had already arrived.

As he spoke, the aura on his body kept leaking out.

He attempted to intimidate Xia Liu.

To force him to speak the truth.

"Yuan Ji, you must not be so reckless. Liu Xia is a disciple of my Immeasurable Hall. If you raise a hand against him, are you provoking me?"

"Dao Venerable!"

Yuan Ji was frightened silly.

He had not expected Xia Liu to receive such protection.

Daoist Venerable Immeasurable then said, "I will return first and use Mysterious Arts to investigate the information. You may do as you please."

"We respectfully see Dao Venerable off!"

Feeling the Dao Venerable's forgiveness, Elder Yuan Ji let out a sigh of relief.

However, he felt that the Dao Venerable was somewhat off today.

Perhaps it was only his imagination.

"Hmph! You had best not hide anything. If the Dao Venerable finds out, you're finished!"

With a cold snort, Elder Yuan Ji quickly left.

Who knew what he intended to do.

"Junior Brother Liu, are you really alright?"

Ye Ruoxue was still rather worried about this little junior brother.

Because she was the one who had told him the exact location of Immovable Peak.

If he had died on his way back.

On a moral level, Ye Ruoxue might feel guilty for a long time.

"I'm fine. Luckily I didn't step out of the Cave, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!"

Xia Liu said with a bitter smile.

"You can still smile? The Dao Venerable and Elder Yuan Ji are striving to find the culprit behind this incident. If you know anything, hurry and report it."

"Mm, I understand. Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister Ye."

"Alright, you rest first. The two Senior Brother Sun and I will go see if there's anything we can do to help Elder Yuan Ji."

"Respectfully sending off Senior Sister Ye and the two Senior Brother Sun."

As everyone left one after another.

Xia Liu returned to the Cave.

After Bai Jue confirmed that there was no one around.

Xia Liu took out a disk from his Storage Ring.

On it was the image of Yin Yang.

This was precisely one of the Three Pure Ones' Treasures, the Taiyi Plate, which he had intercepted from the black-clothed expert earlier when he attacked him!

"This Spiritual Artifact is extraordinary. Properly used, it can become one of your trump cards!"

Bai Jue was very optimistic about this Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact.

After all, the power it could unleash.

Could be used to fight above one's level!

Not to mention greater things.

Just the Extreme of Limitless it could manifest was several times stronger than Xia Liu's.

In the end, relying on the mutual-countering principle of their final moves, Xia Liu had only been able to stabilize the Taiyi Plate for a short while.

If, with that final sword, the black-clothed man had used the Taiyi Plate to block.

He probably would not now be in an unknown life-or-death state.

Xia Liu truly did not know whether the black-clothed man was alive or dead.

The final explosion had been far too terrifying.

Even he had been caught in it.

However, with Demonic Infant Energy protecting his body.

His own situation was nothing to worry about.

As for the center of the explosion, that black-clothed man would likely be crippled even if he did not die.

While Xia Liu was circulating his Energy to regulate his breathing.

At the topmost level of the Immeasurable Hall.

An old man with the bearing of an immortal sat cross-legged on a couch.

Suddenly, a surge of Energy burst from within his body.

It broke through its restraints and forced its way out!

Pfft!

A mouthful of blood sprayed out from his mouth.

In an instant, Daoist Venerable Immeasurable's aura withered.

"Tsk tsk! I didn't expect this!"

"I truly didn't expect that one day I would be injured by a young man, and even have the Taiyi Plate snatched away…"

This old man who had vomited blood and was filled with depression was none other than Daoist Venerable Immeasurable!

If Xia Liu heard and saw all this, he would be so shocked his jaw would drop.

The mysterious expert who had ambushed him halfway and planned to steal his Twin Swords.

Turned out to be Daoist Venerable Immeasurable!

"Haha, but I have no complaints or regrets. To be able to see the successor of the Taiqing Daoist Ancestor possess such power—I'd happily let him beat me to death!"

Daoist Venerable Immeasurable did not regret it in the least.

He was even extremely delighted.

Because Xia Liu's strength was so formidable!

For him to come to the Shangqing Sect at this moment was simply an arrangement of fate! Wonderful!
