The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

"Monster, come out quickly!"

The monkeys' shouts rang out again.

"Let's go, let's teach this monkey a lesson. Maybe when we get back, our master will give us a couple of pills."

Outside the cave, the monkey scratched its head in confusion.

"Why aren't these two responding now? They were so arrogant before."

"Monkey, you'd better be careful later."

Bai Zhi stroked her chin and reminded him that in the original storyline, the Monkey King didn't have much trouble dealing with the Golden Horn and Silver Horn. He easily tricked those supermodels with various tricks and thus got through the crisis.

If we want to replicate the original storyline, there is a very important point.

That means that the Golden Horn and Silver Horn were really that stupid, thinking that the Purple Gold Gourd had a male and female, and even more stupidly, that the gourd responded when it was called by name after it was in the monkey's hands.

She spent a considerable amount of time with the two attendants, Golden Horn and Silver Horn, whether they were studying in the Tushita Palace or training the monkey.

As an attendant of Laozi, even if he wasn't a formal disciple, he was definitely not a fool.

And now I've run away like this...

She wasn't sure if Laozi would be angry.

"You impudent monkey, I kindly let you go once, and now you dare to come back again."

Golden Horn and Silver Horn emerged from their cave and shouted loudly at the monkey.

"Hehe, you two kids, you've dared to descend to the mortal realm and cause trouble. Look who I've invited! If you know what's good for you, you'd better surrender quickly."

Golden Horn sneered, "You impudent monkey, all you can do is borrow the tiger's power. Of course I recognize Senior Sister Bai Zhi, but do you think we'll just surrender just because she's here?"

After saying that, Jinjiao clasped his hands in a fist salute to Baizhi and said, “Senior sister, I cannot comment on your relationship with this monkey, but you are so intelligent that you should not waste your time with him.”

“Although I am always by Master’s side, I am often limited by my talent and can only learn a little bit. You have exceptional talent and can understand Master’s alchemy very quickly, but you have wasted your time. I am very heartbroken.”

Before Bai Zhi could say anything, the monkey turned red.

Damn it, why do they all look down on him? They talk as if Bai Zhi is wasting her life by helping him.

It's one thing for Laozi to be defeated, but for these two boys to say such things is going too far.

He cultivated himself from a wild monkey in a mountain village to the Great Sage Equal to Heaven in just a few years, so he can be considered a genius.

"hehe."

King Golden Horn did not answer, but directly took out the Banana Leaf Fan, indicating that it was time to finish the battle quickly.

This banana leaf fan is not Princess Iron Fan's, but rather the one used to fan fires in the Tushita Palace. What it produces is not a raging hurricane, but endless flames.

"Senior sister, please forgive me!"

King Golden Horn roared and swung his banana leaf fan, instantly engulfing the entire mountain in raging flames, which then surged towards Bai Zhi and the monkey.

This was a pre-arranged plan: first, use the flames to divide the angelica monkey into pieces, then control it within the smallest possible area, and finally use the Qiankun Diagram to capture the person.

……

Chapter 764 Dividing Yin and Yang

"Junior brother, you're using fire to surround me...aren't you underestimating me?"

As the flames engulfed her, Bai Zhi remained calm. Even though these flames were not ordinary fire, as a Holy Lord, how could she be weak in terms of control over them?

Bai Zhi drew her Storm Sword, and a gale began to descend. Combined with her control over the flames, the flames that had been summoned by the Banana Leaf Fan and had enveloped the entire mountain began to swirl and concentrate on the Storm Sword that Bai Zhi held high.

"Wow, that's amazing, Xiaobai."

Seeing this, the monkey was stunned for a moment, then said with sincere admiration.

He would find it very difficult to do such a thing. If it were just him alone, that banana leaf fan would be enough to give him a hard time.

"Senior Sister Bai Zhi is that amazing?!"

King Golden Horn was taken aback; this was not the scene he had imagined.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this banana leaf fan is usually used to fan the fire in the stove; its power is far beyond that of ordinary magical artifacts.

"Just good luck."

Bai Zhi stretched out her hand, and the flames attached to the sword gathered in her palm, compressing into a small fireball.

If the banana leaf fan hadn't produced flames, but instead some kind of lightning, she estimated it wouldn't have been so easy for her to break through it.

"If you ever encounter a fire that you can't extinguish, you can come to me."

Bai Zhi casually waved the Storm Sword. "Junior brothers, are you ready?"

Upon hearing this, Jinjiao and Yinjiao immediately sensed something was wrong.

Before the two of them could react, the Storm Sword shone with a blue light, and a gale-force wind that could shatter mountains and split rocks erupted.

This terrible storm was even more terrifying than the flames created by the banana leaf fan.

However, this storm, which far exceeded the power of the banana leaf fan, did not produce the desired result.

A sturdy shield appeared above the Golden Horn and Silver Horn, directly blocking the attack.

"what?"

Bai Zhi looked at the Tai Chi pattern that appeared under the golden and silver horn protective shield with some surprise.

I've never heard of Golden Horn and Silver Horn having such a defensive magic weapon.

She remembered that although the two had many magical treasures, most of them were offensive, such as the Purple Gold Gourd, the Mutton Fat Bottle, the Immortal Binding Rope, the Seven Star Sword, and the Banana Leaf Fan.

But there is no such magical item that provides a shield.

Could it be that because of me, Laozi temporarily gave these two more magical treasures?

Bai Zhi thought about it and thought, "It shouldn't be that bad."

She had only come here with this monkey; she had finished refining that batch of pills before leaving.

"Phew... Luckily we have the new magic weapon Master gave us, otherwise, if Senior Sister had hit us like that, we would have been blown to the ends of the earth."

Both Jinjiao and Yinjiao breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time gained a new understanding of Baizhi's combat power.

They had heard from some immortals that Angelica dahurica was very powerful.

However, that was merely a written description, very general. In addition, they usually stayed in the Tushita Palace and did not interact much with the outside world, so they did not have much of a concept of how powerful Bai Zhi was.

Now I'm experiencing it firsthand.

"Senior Sister Baizhi, let's stop for a moment. Can we talk about something else first?"

Jinjiao suddenly shouted.

"Hmm, what's this, are you surrendering?"

"Hehe," Golden Horn smiled, "It's nothing, it's just that you'll have to make do with this for a little while."

"……broken!"

Feeling a suction force around her, Bai Zhi knew perfectly well that her "hmm" had triggered the effect of the Purple Gold Gourd.

"Do you think this thing can control me?"

Bai Zhi remained calm. The Storm Sword in her hand immediately unleashed a counterforce, directly resisting the effect of the Purple Gold Gourd.

Unlike a pure warrior like a monkey, she still has ways to resist the power of this magical artifact.

"Of course not, but as long as it makes my senior sister less agile, that's fine!"

Jinjiao chuckled, then took out the Qiankun Diagram and threw it directly at Baizhi.

Silver Horn picked up the Seven Star Sword and blocked the monkey's sudden attack.

Compared to the Purple Gold Gourd with its conditions, this Qiankun Diagram is far more advanced. It floated directly onto Bai Zhi's head, who was resisting the suction of the Purple Gold Gourd, and then suddenly enveloped her.

The next second, Bai Zhi disappeared without a trace.

"Ha, all done, monkey, now it's your turn!"

Jinjiao chanted a few incantations, and the Qiankun Map floated into his hand.

He looked closely and saw that Bai Zhi, as if transformed into a two-dimensional character, was sitting cross-legged in the center, frowning as she looked around.

Upon seeing this, he shouted into the painting:

"Senior sister, don't even think about leaving this Qiankun Diagram. This is a magic treasure specially made by our master. The Yin and Yang energies inside are constantly rotating, and all power will be assimilated. In terms of trapping people, even if Erlang Shen came, he would have to stay inside obediently."

“This action was not our intention. We will apologize to you after we hand you over to our master.”

"The two energies of Yin and Yang constantly rotate..."

Within the Qiankun Diagram, listening to Jinjiao's voice, Baizhi tried to summon flames and then casually unleashed them.

However, she discovered that after the flames left her body, they were devoured by the omnipresent Yin and Yang energies, transforming into these two forces, which further strengthened the power that trapped her within the entire magical artifact.

This is a powerful magic weapon from Laozi.

Bai Zhi knew that in the way of Yin and Yang balance, everything can be transformed into these two forces, as the saying goes, "The Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things."

One of them can be understood as a Tai Chi form, containing the overall state of Yin and Yang before they are separated.

Having listened to many of Lao Tzu's lectures, she still understood some things quite clearly.

For example, within this magical artifact, other powers will be assimilated into the most original one or two, thus failing to exert their original effects.

With other forces proving ineffective, most of those trapped here have no choice but to accept the fact that they cannot escape.

However... there is also a loophole.

That is, if your understanding and control over Yin and Yang energies are high enough...

If these powers are far more effective than those currently held by their owners, then they can no longer control people.

If the Qiankun Diagram were currently in the hands of Laozi, Baizhi wouldn't bother struggling.

After all, when it comes to understanding the principle of Yin-Yang balance, a hundred of hers couldn't compare to this one.

But if the one controlling the magic weapon is a weakling like King Golden Horn who relies entirely on incantations, then it's hard to say.

"If I only had a level one Tiger Talisman, that would be fine, but unfortunately, I'm at level two now."

Bai Zhi stretched out her hand, and the power of the Tiger Talisman erupted. The Yin and Yang energies that permeated the entire space seemed to have found their master and surged wildly towards her.

The level two Tiger Talisman has just the right amount of power to be projected outwards and can also separate Yin and Yang.

She closed her eyes, carefully sensing the power within, trying to seize control of this magical artifact.

Just as Bai Zhi closed her eyes, Laozi's figure suddenly appeared in the distance.

Seeing Bai Zhi's earnest expression, a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Chapter 765 Who's spying on me?

"Harmony of Yin and Yang..."

Under the influence of the Tiger Talisman, Bai Zhi felt that the Yin and Yang energies in this space were as docile as a kitten, easily controlled by her.

Under these circumstances, the once impenetrable defenses began to crumble.

Bai Zhi could even sense the details of Jin Jiao's manipulation of the Qiankun Diagram.

She stretched out her hand, and the yin and yang energies around her surged wildly, eventually forming a tai chi symbol beneath her feet.

"Well, children can be taught."

The Supreme Lord Laozi, watching from afar, was quite pleased; he had been very dissatisfied these past few days.

With his discerning eye, he could naturally see Bai Zhi's talent for the Yin-Yang balance principle. It could be said that in this vast world, Bai Zhi was perhaps the only one who could completely inherit his mantle.

Not to mention that Bai Zhi is also quite accomplished in alchemy, making her his chosen disciple.

Therefore, he was never stingy when it came to cultivating Angelica dahurica, feeding her Nine-Turn Golden Elixir as if it were candy.

However, this apprentice was good in every way, but he just happened to hang out with that mischievous monkey.

This mischievous monkey seems to be doing quite well, causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace and beating up a bunch of heavenly soldiers and generals, but to be honest, he's just a pawn.

If it were normal interpersonal interaction, he would just pretend he didn't see it.
