Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality

On the way, we also encountered several second-level barrier beasts.

They were directly smashed to pieces by the cross-domain treasure boat.

Zhang Xuan still remembers the situation when he and the people of the dung-collecting team were trapped in the mud of the Black Lake in the Thousand Machine House.

At that time, everyone was so desperate and panicked.

However, now they are in the cross-domain treasure boat, surrounded by gem lighting and spiritual energy, and they feel full of security.

The deeper they sink, the more deadly it is.

The roar of the cross-domain treasure boat resounded deep underground in the Black Lake of the Barrier.

Just when the cross-domain treasure boat sank three thousand feet below the Black Lake of the Barrier.

The witch pattern on Zhang Xuan's back suddenly became uncertain.

"There is danger." Zhang Xuan shouted.

Feng Yuanshan, who was standing next to the woman in red, sneered: "With the cross-domain treasure boat here, what danger can there be?"

At this time, the eyes of the woman in red flashed.

"There are five third-level barrier beasts approaching this side!" said the woman in red.

"Ah? Five, let's retreat quickly!" The old man who established the foundation said in surprise.

"It's too late."

At this moment, five third-level barrier beasts swam over from above the cross-domain treasure boat.

"These barrier beasts should not sink to the depths of the barrier black swamp. Drive the treasure boat to the depths quickly." Zhang Xuan said hurriedly.

He remembered that there were no barrier beasts living in the depths of the barrier black swamp.

These barrier beasts must have some taboos.

The red-clothed woman immediately drove the treasure boat to the bottom of the barrier black swamp.

Five third-level barrier beasts were chasing closely behind.

Once surrounded by five third-level barrier beasts, even if the cross-domain treasure boat had strong defense, it would be broken.

It's getting closer.

"Boom--"

A third-level barrier beast with a big head directly hit the tail of the cross-domain treasure boat.

The cross-domain treasure boat shook violently.

"The body of this third-level barrier beast is stronger than the third-level barrier beast at the edge of the barrier black swamp!" said the red-clothed woman.

"Boom--"

The third-level barrier beast hit again, and the cross-domain treasure boat was forced to deviate and stop for a moment.

At this moment, five third-order barrier beasts surrounded the cross-domain treasure boat.

"It's over now." The old man who established the foundation looked desperate.

Although the cross-domain treasure boat is strong, it is not strong enough to monopolize five third-order barrier beasts.

"Boom..."

These barrier beasts kept hitting the cross-domain treasure boat.

The layer of defensive light shield on the surface of the cross-domain treasure boat was broken.

The strong defense of the cross-domain treasure boat is not in the material, but in this layer of defensive light shield.

The defensive light shield was broken.

After a few collisions, the cross-domain treasure boat was already in tatters.

A large amount of black swamp mud poured in.

"Don't be wrapped by the black swamp mud, otherwise you can't use half of your spiritual power." Zhang Xuan reminded.

"Everyone, hurry up and enter the Xumi Cauldron." The woman in red took out a small golden cauldron.

Feng Yuanshan looked reluctant: "Are we going to give up the cross-domain treasure boat? The sect has spent decades and millions of medium-grade spirit stones on this treasure boat."

"As long as people are alive, there is hope." The red-clothed woman urged.

Everyone entered the Xumi Ding.

The Xumi Ding quickly broke away from the broken hull of the cross-domain treasure boat.

It fled to the depths of the black swamp.

Five third-level barrier beasts were about to chase the Xumi Ding.

"Boom--"

There was a loud noise.

Zhang Xuan looked back and found that the cross-domain treasure boat had exploded.

This is a magic treasure boat, and the power of the self-explosion can be imagined.

A vacuum zone of the black swamp mud was directly formed on the spot.

Even the five third-level barrier beasts were blown up and scattered everywhere.

The Xumi Ding sank quickly, 70% faster than the cross-domain treasure boat.

Everyone in the Xumi Ding was also very depressed at this time.

Originally thought that driving the cross-domain treasure boat would be foolproof.

I didn't expect that there would be so many third-level beasts in the depths of the Black Swamp.

The cross-domain treasure boat has all the spiritual energy, spiritual materials, and everything that cultivators need.

But there are none of these things in the Xumi Ding.

The Xumi Ding is at best equivalent to a first-level mid-grade spiritual weapon. Compared with the cross-domain treasure boat, it is not at the same level. It is faster and has a smaller target.

In the following journey, everyone was very careful.

Always be on guard against possible dangers around.

However, in the depths of the Black Swamp, there is nothing.

It was dead silent.

The red-clothed woman just drove the Xumi Ding and consumed a lot.

In the depths of the Black Swamp, there is no spiritual energy to replenish.

She took a pill to replenish the insufficient spiritual energy.

The Xumi Ding let it sink freely, and the speed was less than 10% of the original speed.

It's not that she doesn't want to drive the Xumi Ding, but it consumes too much spiritual energy.

The space in the Xumi Ding is indeed not small, it is hundreds of feet long and wide.

Xumi Ding continued to sink, and Zhang Xuan found an empty corner.

He quietly took the origin of the thousand-year-old bamboo milk and began to nourish the sword energy.

These sword energies crisscrossed in his body, rushing left and right, and finally merged into the sword valley.

Now, he swallowed at most three drops of the origin of the thousand-year-old bamboo milk every day.

If there were more, he would not be able to bear it with his current physical strength.

He had a question.

He was at the seventh level of body refining, and Xumi Body Refining had also reached the peak of the ninth level. His physical strength was also top-notch among the cultivators in the Qi Refining period.

"How strong is the physical strength of the disciple of Beichen Dongtian who nourishes the acquired sword body to be able to directly immerse in the thousand-year-old bamboo milk?"

What he didn't know was that the essence of the thousand-year-old bamboo milk he swallowed was much heavier than the sword energy nurtured by the thousand-year-old bamboo milk.

He was a top-notch physical cultivator. If he were an ordinary Qi-refining cultivator, one drop would probably be enough to destroy his body.

Five more days passed.

Zhang Xuan had been nurturing the sword energy.

Until he reached the limit of his body's load.

He stopped.

"Haste makes waste when it comes to nurturing sword energy!"

The sword valley he opened was like a gluttonous beast. It could swallow any nurturing sword energy, and it was bottomless.

The nurturing of sword energy came to an end.

He took half of the Qi and Blood Creation Golden Pill.

He began to practice the Tiangang Body Refining Technique.

At this time, the eight mysterious veins opened together, and the endless Qi and Blood power flowed into the blood pool.

After a while, the vast energy in the Qi and Blood Creation Golden Pill was consumed.

He swallowed another half of the Qi and Blood Creation Golden Pill.

This cycle repeats until the blood pool is completely filled with blood and qi.

After the blood pool is filled, he begins to nourish the Xuan Palace.

A steady stream of blood and qi flows into the Xuan Palace.

It makes the Xuan Palace in his body more solid and taller.

The more solid and bigger the Xuan Palace is, the shorter the distance of escape when performing the Blood Escape Technique.

The blood and qi in the blood pool are almost consumed.

Zhang Xuan took another half of the blood and qi creation golden pill and began to practice the Tiangang body training to accumulate blood and qi.

This cycle repeats.

Several foundation-building elders in Qingyun Sect were surprised to see Zhang Xuan sitting in the corner of the Xumi Ding all day long.

"He has been practicing like this for more than half a month without sleep. It is rare to see such a hard-working cultivator with such great endurance in Qingyun Sect."

"Yes, I think he is practicing both Dharma and body, and he has reached the late stage of Qi training. It is rare to achieve such a level of cultivation at such a young age in Qingyun Sect."
