Chapter 325 Demon
Chapter 325 Demon
"It seems that Venerable Fuyu's Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure accompanied him to the Immortal Realm?"
"The other items may have been lost in the turbulent void as well?"
Fang Qing's divine sense swept across the Tongtian Palace and finally landed on the 'Ten Thousand Water Cauldron'.
The entire cauldron is a deep blue-green color, from which the faint sound of waves can be heard. On the front is engraved a ferocious water ape riding the waves, while on the back is a jet-black dragon.
"If I'm not mistaken, the true Nascent Soul cultivator of the Devouring Sea Technique likely originated from the Zhou Tian Star Palace, later rebelled, and established the Devouring Sea Demon Sect... probably using this 'Ten Thousand Water Cauldron' as his inheritance..."
Fang Qing looked at the scroll behind the Wanshui Cauldron, but saw that apart from the name of the Tongtian Lingbao, there was no other record on it.
"That's normal. If it were me, I wouldn't just write about sect scandals directly..."
"Now, the question is how to obtain this heaven-reaching spiritual treasure..."
With a flick of his sleeve, several beams of emerald light appeared, transforming into vines that landed on the light screen guarding the high platform.
Snapped!
The vines instantly burst into flames and turned to ashes.
Unlike the previous two restrictions, it did not dissipate instantly.
"It seems the 'Turtle and Crane Longevity Manual' isn't the key, then..."
Fang Qing silently circulated the "Sea Devouring Technique," his body seemingly transforming into a black hole, frantically absorbing spiritual energy.
He made a hand seal with one hand, and a burst of "Sea Devouring Technique" power was released, landing on the "Sea Devouring Token".
The token suddenly shone brightly, as if strongly attracted by something, and shot out in a flash, landing on the restriction.
Rumble!
The entire Tongtian Hall was trembling and rumbling...
The thick layers of restrictions slowly dissipated, and countless streams of water gushed out from them.
Splash!
A large amount of water converges, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, forming a waterfall that washes away in all directions...
"The Sea-Swallowing Order is the key."
Within Fang Qing's body, the second nascent soul silently circulated. With a flick of his sleeve, it was as if invisible ripples swept across, suppressing all the strange phenomena of the water.
Then, two Nascent Soul level Devouring Sea Techniques, like dragons, coiled around the 'Ten Thousand Water Cauldron' from the left and right!
……
"this……"
Zhan Hongxiu had just emerged from a cave dwelling, her face still flushed with excitement, when she saw this scene and was utterly dumbfounded: "That's... the Heavenly Palace? Someone has opened the Heavenly Palace?"
Splash!
Along with thunder and moonlight... strange phenomena also appeared on another white jade mountain peak.
"Not only the Heavenly Palace, but also the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Laws!"
Within his sea of consciousness, the old tortoise's voice was extremely grave: "Judging from the Core Formation cultivators who entered this time, they are most likely those two traitors from Thunder Sound Temple and Water Moon Palace... It's not impossible that such traitors possess some secrets of the restrictions... And that Island Master Fang, after all, is only at the Nascent Soul stage..."
"What do we do now? Although I've obtained the replica magical artifact, I might not be a match for either side..."
Zhan Hongxiu asked, "Shall we leave directly?"
Anyway, she made a fortune this time! She wasn't greedy.
"No, you still have time... Go to the 'Ancestral Hall' immediately. If you aspire to ascend to the Nascent Soul stage in the future, the coordinates for smuggling across the void are of paramount importance. If you can obtain them, even if a Nascent Soul Venerable appears in the future, you can trade with them for unimaginable benefits!"
The old tortoise advised, "The Ancestral Hall is not dangerous; the power to activate the restriction is all you possess..."
"good!"
Zhan Hongxiu gritted her teeth, estimated the distance between the 'Ancestral Hall' and the 'Tongtian Hall' and 'Wanfa Pavilion', and made sure that she could quickly enter and exit without being blocked by either side before she quickly stepped onto a small path.
Compared to the magnificent "Wanfa Pavilion" and the solemn "Tongtian Hall".
The ancestral hall of Zhou Tianxing Palace is not large. The main building in front is a temple-like structure with a black stone tablet and a memorial archway at the entrance.
Above the archway, two lines of ancient seal script are inscribed:
"The stars are in my palm, the sun and moon no longer reside in the sky?"
Zhan Hongxiu read aloud the seal script: "Old Turtle... what does this mean?"
She subconsciously looked up and saw the sky filled with dazzling stars.
Within the gates of Zhou Tianxing Palace, there has been neither sun nor moon, only a sky full of starlight.
"How would I know?"
The old tortoise said, "The history of our sect is much longer than the lifespan of an old tortoise..."
Zhan Hongxiu sighed inwardly, stretched out her palm, and began to circulate the "Turtle and Crane Longevity Technique".
The vibrant magical power spread out, and the thin layer of restriction instantly dissolved like a bubble.
A gentle breeze is blowing.
Inside that once dilapidated ancestral hall, a mysterious Daoist aura seemed to begin to flow, making various colors inexplicably vibrant...
Squeak!
Two unremarkable wooden doors opened, revealing the interior structure of the Ancestral Hall.
The small space contained a long, red altar table with dozens of memorial tablets on it.
At the very top of all the memorial tablets, a set of clothing and headwear is offered.
Beneath the clothing, something else was subtly pressing down, emitting a soft golden glow...
There aren't any treasures here, but there might be coordinates for the Void Passage... If I had to pinpoint a location, the area around the Ancestral Master's robes would likely have the largest...
Old Turtle's voice came.
Zhan Hongxiu lit three incense sticks and placed them in the incense burner, then looked at the set of clothes.
The clothing was in the style of ancient cultivators, and something seemed to be hidden inside, emitting a faint golden glow.
"Please forgive me, Master!"
Zhan Hongxiu bowed first, then reached out her fair hand to grab the clothes.
But in that instant, something unexpected happened!
The entire set of clothes was suddenly stretched out, and beneath the long robe, a golden light seemed to continuously fill it, transforming into limbs and torso...
With her sleeves unfurled, two jade-like hands emerged, and strands of dark hair fell down, all of which were then tied into a hair crown and adorned with a white jade hairpin.
Beneath the hair bun was a lean and handsome face, celestial. It was faintly translucent, with golden light emanating from it.
Below the heavenly court were a pair of jade-brown eyes, within which a faint golden light could be seen.
At this moment, those eyes fixed on Zhan Hongxiu, putting immense pressure on her.
"My... ancestor has risen from the dead?"
Zhan Hongxiu was in a state of confusion, unable to express her feelings: 'Old turtle, are you trying to kill me?'
In that brief moment of eye contact, bright red blood began to trickle from her nose and eyes…
This made Zhan Hongxiu realize that the evil creature transformed from the patriarch's robes was not only extremely ferocious, but also harbored ill intentions!
A Nascent Soul level demon!
The moment a thought crossed her mind, she saw a flash of light in the void ahead.
The demon that was the patriarch's robes had transformed into had vanished.
Before Zhan Hongxiu could react, she saw a jade-like hand pierce through her back and extend out of her chest, covered in blood...
"I!"
She lowered her head and suddenly her entire body turned to ashes.
Whoosh!
Outside the Ancestral Hall, Zhan Hongxiu reappeared, a jade-colored hook above her head, a tortoise shell floating in front of her, and the 'Azure Emperor's Longevity Nail' in her hand. Her face was filled with lingering fear: "That was... teleportation? No, teleportation is only possible for Nascent Soul cultivators, but that demon was teleporting its entire body. Could it be that it was actually a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator?"
As her divine sense frantically questioned her, she formed hand seals, and thunder orbs and powerful talismans exploded, as if she were about to betray her master and destroy the entire ancestral hall.
But the next moment.
Whoosh!
With a flash in the void, the demon instantly teleported a hundred feet away, its jade-brown eyes showing no emotion as it calmly gazed at her.
"Run! ... That 'Borrowing Body to Take Retribution' technique can only shield you once. If it happens again, you're dead!"
"This thing... probably really does possess Nascent Soul level combat power!"
As Old Turtle finished speaking, his voice became increasingly bitter and he grew weaker.
Clearly, activating the "Borrowing a Body to Take Tribulation" technique was also a huge burden for it.
"Quickly... leave this place, leave the Purple Palace!"
"Perfect timing, a few scapegoats have just come in here..."
"Old Turtle said quickly."
Zhan Hongxiu dared not delay and sped down the mountain.
Whoosh!
Countless golden rays appeared in the eyes of the demon in its robes, and it suddenly traversed the void.
When it reappeared, it came behind Zhan Hongxiu again and grabbed her head with its large hand.
"snort!"
A cold snort rang out, piercing the demon's brain like a sharp cone.
It was the old turtle who mobilized his divine soul essence and transformed it into a divine sense attack!
But the "God-Slaying Cone," which was enough to make even a Nascent Soul level monster lose his senses for a moment, only caused this demon to stagger and then disappear into the void.
Whoosh!
As soon as Zhan Hongxiu arrived at the foot of the Ancestral Hall Mountain, she saw two cultivators.
It was none other than the Great Zen Master and the Fairy of Luo!
"Water Moon Hook?"
As Luo Xianzi gazed at the magical weapon Zhan Hongxiu unleashed, a fanatical look appeared on her face. Then, looking directly at Zhan Hongxiu's face, she exclaimed, "You're not Peach Fairy, you're Zhan Hongxiu, the one being hunted by the East Sea?!"
Zhan Hongxiu then realized that after using the "Borrowing Body to Take Tribulation Technique", her original disguise had disappeared at some point, revealing her true appearance.
But she only glanced at the two of them before fleeing to Changyuan.
"Don't leave!"
In a moment of panic, Fairy Luo conjured a ribbon-like magical artifact in the sky, with strands of silk hanging down.
She quickly transmitted her voice to the Great Master Dazhi beside her: "Master...this person possesses a replica of our palace's most precious treasure. We must take him down...After this is accomplished, my Water Moon Palace will owe you a favor."
"Amitabha……"
The Great Zen Master was in a good mood, after all, he and Fairy Luo had just robbed the Myriad Laws Pavilion and obtained a lot of cultivation techniques and secret arts, especially the insights into the Nascent Soul stage!
He readily agreed and presented a small purple bell.
Whoosh!
Before he could say anything, a figure appeared behind him and gently reached out.
Stab it!
The flesh behind the Great Zen Master was torn apart, revealing bones that shone with a faint silver light, and a crimson heart could be vaguely seen.
His expression changed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
when!
The thunderous bells roared overhead, and a bolt of purple lightning swept backward.
By the light, the Great Zen Master finally saw the attacker: a figure with a slender appearance and jade-brown eyes, whose forehead shimmered with golden light, as if it were giving birth to a sun…
"Amitabha... Xuan Tian Shen Zun?"
The Zen master was so shaken that he could not even recite the Buddha's name as usual.
"The Xuan Tian Ancestor lived tens of thousands of years ago..."
Fairy Luo tore open a fourth-tier talisman, causing a strange flower to bloom and envelop her completely: "This is a Nascent Soul demon that looks very much like our ancestor... Run for your life!"
call out!
Countless petals fluttered down, and her figure vanished without a trace...
