Five Immortals Gate

After being passed down from generation to generation, the monks of the Soul-Suppressing Palace also gradually began to have contacts, marriages, etc. with other soul-cultivating sects, and their skills began to blend.

During this long process, some disciples also left the Soul-Suppressing Palace, established their own sects or families outside, and became vassals of the Soul-Suppressing Sect.

In addition to having to pay tribute every year, they can still pass on ordinary skills, as well as the skills allowed to be passed down by Zhenhun Palace, to their disciples.

However, they are often restricted from passing on the secret techniques of the Soul-Suppressing Sect. Once discovered, their entire sect or family will be killed.

Since these people can go out and establish a sect, they are basically all talented people, and they often create their own techniques.

Later, after marrying with soul cultivators who were not from the Soul-Suppressing Palace, more new techniques were created through exchanges between the powerful men from both sides. This was actually a repeat of what the immortal sects from all walks of life had done.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be too many exercises in the world, and a few exercises would be enough. It's just that the soul cultivators in the past lived in darkness and did not dare to truly develop.

For a time, the "Di Zhen Realm" slowly emerged with a hundred schools of thought contending from generation to generation, making the soul cultivation techniques here more and more powerful and numerous, becoming a holy place for soul cultivation.

In fact, many sects have come to realize why the senior leaders of Zhenhun Palace did this.

That's why Zhenhun Palace hopes to try different techniques to see if there will be any ingenious techniques that can break the constraints of the world here.

If someone is found to be able to break through to the Fusion Realm after practicing to the Void Refining Realm without using the Soul-Suppressing Palace, which is the only special place where one can advance to the Fusion Realm.

This means that the other party's technique has a different function, and the Zhenhun Palace will take out that special place and cooperate with the other party.

Maybe, we can open the restriction of "Jizhen Realm" and break the restriction of leaving here.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhenhun Palace did not prevent its disciples from leaving and establishing their own sect. But at the same time, it also gives them great restrictions, so that they can continue to innovate and improve.

The techniques were all created by people, and one sect after another appeared. The plan of the Soul-Suppressing Palace was actually very long, and might not necessarily yield results.

But in desperation, they can only do this. When the dog is in a hurry, they can always jump over the high wall that they cannot usually jump out of.

Including those foreign soul cultivators, they are not allowed to enter the special area where they can break through to the Fusion Realm. In addition to stabilizing their own power, the Soul Suppressing Palace is also squeezing their potential.

No monk would be willing to give up and die of old age after reaching the Void Refining Realm, so they would be forced to reach the Fusion Realm without any external force.

Otherwise, there is nothing to look forward to.

Li Yan's plan was adjusted in various aspects after the short and sturdy man appeared.

The sect that the short and stocky man belonged to was founded hundreds of thousands of years ago by a disciple of the Soul-Suppressing Palace, and he himself created a set of techniques that were not too perfect.

Later, in order to quickly solve this problem, the disciple who founded the sect successively recruited two foreign soul cultivators who were involved in this place.

After giving them extremely generous cultivation resources, and through mutual exchanges, everyone's cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds.

In the end, these two people became the supreme elders of the sect, and gradually formed a sect with unique skills.

But now, most of the sect's skills have been obtained by Li Yan for free.

Stealing other people's skills is a taboo in any realm. Once someone knows about it, it will lead to death.

However, Li Yan didn't care about this. If he didn't do this, he would only make himself die faster here.

Due to the short and stout man's own realm problem, this sect's technique called "Lingzhumen", this man only obtained the final technique of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Further up, Li Yan couldn't ask.

However, Li Yan could also guess that according to the constraints of the heaven and earth here, the sect's skills would probably only reach the Void Refining Realm or even the God Transformation Realm at most.

The only skills beyond this realm are the ones brought by the two foreign soul cultivators. I don’t know if they have been passed down, but after being verified here, they are of no use.

After he obtained the short and stout man's technique, he practiced hard day and night, which allowed his soul power to increase rapidly again.

In the end, based on his understanding of the level of soul cultivation, Li Yan, in addition to his overall strength, judged his soul strength alone to have reached the level of the God Transformation Realm.

The reason for all this is that his soul foundation is too strong.

He has never practiced soul cultivation techniques, but it only took him less than twenty years of practice to achieve such strength, which is impressive.

Li Yan actually didn't care that his soul's strength increased again during these years. For him, the soul in the Nascent Soul realm was enough for the time being.

The imbalance between soul skills and martial arts was the shortcoming that he urgently needed to make up for. He had a powerful soul power, but he couldn't attack it. The most he could do was increase his soul defense.

Therefore, after he learned from the Soul-Slaying Sect techniques, he finally managed to achieve some soul skills, and finally managed to achieve a minor level of success.

As soon as he reached this point, Li Yan left there immediately. He had to enter the Soul-Suppressing Palace as soon as possible.

Entering Soul Soul Palace, in addition to inquiring about information, another advantage is that you have the largest identity in this world, which makes it easier to do things in many cases.

During the flight, Li Yan kept thinking about the plans in his heart, including various plans if he could not enter the Soul Soul Palace.

And at a certain moment, a mountain gate rising into the sky appeared in Li Yan's sight. The mountain gate is dark blue as a whole, as if it is built with huge and rough bluestone.

At a glance, the entire mountain gate gives people a feeling of being covered with rich and thick years.

The mountain gate is ten thousand feet high and how wide it is. If you fly in the direction of Li Yan, you can only see one side of the gate pillar.

When there were still hundreds of miles away from the mountain gate, the sky here had already turned dark, making the majestic mountain gate even more immersed in black clouds and mist.

As the wind blows and the fog moves, the mountain gate gives people a feeling of being far away and then near, as if it is constantly drifting.

After pouring mana into his eyes, Li Yan looked high in the air and could occasionally see a few big characters on the mountain gate among the billowing black clouds and mist.

"Soul Soul Palace", these three fonts are blue-black with strong power through bluestone. Each character is a hundred feet in size, like three mountains, embedded in the sky and earth.

The handwriting has been mottled with time, black and dignified, and they are deeply embedded in rough blue boulders covered with moss.

Anyone who sees these three words will feel a wild and ancient aura coming from deep within.

As Li Yan continued to approach, he felt that no matter how he changed his direction and approached, the three big green and black characters were like three ghost eyes, staring directly at him at all times.

The cold air around him was getting stronger and stronger. Even with Li Yan's cultivation, as he continued to approach the mountain gate, his scalp became tighter and tighter, and the chill in his body became stronger and stronger.

Li Yan knew that this was a restriction on the mountain gate, exerting pressure on the covered area.

The pressure that the Soul Suppressing Palace can release is the three souls and seven souls directed at people. When the soul is suppressed, it will naturally feel more and more chilly.

There were other monks coming and going around Li Yan, and they were all walking through the surging black clouds.

At this moment, everyone's body seemed to be coated with a layer of black ink, like shadows appearing and disappearing in a piece of ink painting.

Coupled with the boundless coldness and dampness around him, it was like ghostly shadows flashing past Li Yan.

Naturally, no one came to talk to Li Yan. On the contrary, when they found him, they would deliberately keep a distance, which made Li Fang feel like he was traveling in a silent space.

Li Yan also had an expressionless face, until when he appeared a hundred miles in front of the mountain gate, Li Yan felt that he was pushed directly to the ground by a tyrannical force.

Li Yan fell to the ground. He knew that this was already a restricted area. This was a common method used by many sects.

Flights are either not allowed outside the mountain gate, or warnings appear, but often everything returns to normal after entering the mountain gate.

One is to demonstrate to warn intruders, and the other is to protect the sect.

Seven or eight black figures around Li Yan fell to the ground with him at the same time.

But there were still some people in the air. After briefly glancing at the fallen Li Yan and others, they continued to fly towards the mountain gate.

The eyes of these people were either cold or a little joking.

Li Yan understood at a glance that those who could continue flying must be the monks of Zhenhun Palace...

After Li Yan walked for a hundred miles, he finally came to the corner of the mountain gate, close to a stone pillar on one side of the mountain gate.

Standing on the ground and looking up, this stone pillar extends upward into the sky. It gives the impression that it is a huge green mountain peak that looks straight up and down.

Li Yan walked here with a few black figures in front of him. There might be people whispering in twos and threes along the way, but Li Yan was just alone.

After arriving here, Li Yan saw that twenty or thirty people had gathered in front of the mountain gate and were being interrogated by five monks in black robes.

The black robes on the chests of these five people all have a strange red flame logo embroidered on them. They wear pitch black robes, giving people a cold and mysterious feeling.

Li Yan stood silently at the back of the team, moving forward little by little with the crowd. After listening to some whispered questions and answers from the front, Li Yan also figured out the reasons why some people were here.

Among them, there are monks who want to join the Soul-Suppressing Palace. They seem to be outstanding disciples of some sects, but they were brought here by the elders or sect leaders of their own sects.

More of them are shop monks who come to conduct various transactions.

The five people asked carefully. After everyone was registered one by one, the same disciple in black robes would walk out of the mountain gate and lead those people into the mountain gate and disappear without a trace.

After about a cup of tea, it was finally Li Yan's turn.

A woman in her thirties looked Li Yan up and down. This woman also had a good appearance. Li Yan could see through the fluctuations in the soul power of her body that she was a monk in the Golden Core Realm.

To guard the gate of the mountain is to use golden elixir monks, which is also in the fairy world.

After sensing the aura emanating from Li Yan, the woman's pretty face showed just a hint of respect.

"Senior, what's the purpose of coming here?"

"I want to join Soul Soul Palace!"

Li Yan was also straightforward, and the expression on his face did not change much.

"Oh? Which sect is your senior a monk from?"

Although the female cultivator had a hint of surprise in her mouth, there was no strange expression on her pretty face.

Although there are many sects in the "Di Zhen Realm", there are many monks who want to enter the Soul Soul Palace in the end. Some of them are recommended by the sects, and some come to pass the examination on their own.

These people are basically monks of Transformation God and below. If they are a Void Refining monk, that is extremely rare, and is especially valued by Zhenhun Palace.

"I am a casual cultivator. My ancestor was once a monk of the Lingzhan Sect. After leaving the sect, I have been practicing in a remote place!"

"Slayer Sect? That sect is not weak. If you want to join our sect, you must pass the examination."

After hearing the name of the sect from Li Yan's mouth, the female cultivator only nodded slightly.

She didn't ask why Li Yan didn't recognize his ancestor and return to the sect. Since the other party's ancestor left the Lingzhan Sect, he had his own reasons.

Li Yan already said that he went to a remote place. Either his ancestors were ostracized by others in the sect, or they had "ambitions". Now that they have gotten so messed up, their descendants will have no shame in going back...

What Li Yan said was a more detailed plan remade after searching the stocky man's memory.

The Lingzhan Sect has been inherited for more than 100,000 years. There are countless monks who have left the sect. He doesn't even need to change his surname. No one will check whether any monk named Li has left the sect in the past 100,000 years. .

What Li Yan wants is that he comes from a decent background. Once he performs his spells, some of the Soul-Slaying Sect spells he performs can be explained away.

"I know all this, so I'll trouble this fellow Taoist!"

Li Yan just said a few words lightly, with an expression that was already clear to him.

"Then I will register for senior now, but I still want to say that once senior passes the examination, he can only enter the 'Yi Que Hall'.

In the future, some of the required training resources may be more difficult to obtain than other halls, especially some secret techniques, which still depend on the contribution of the seniors to the sect.

Then, it must be evaluated by the elders before it can be purchased. These are all things that the seniors need to know in advance. "

The female cultivator didn't know whether Li Yan knew everything about the situation before he came, but she explained the restrictions one by one after Li Yan entered.

"Oh? I wonder what kind of contribution is required?"

Of course, Li Yan already understood a lot of things, but he wasn't too clear about some of the specific rules in the Zhenhun Palace.

"For example, if you have improved an elixir, or a certain skill, or killed at least ten evil spirit monks of the same level outside, etc., a dedicated deacon will inform you of these matters after passing the assessment."

After half a stick of incense, Li Yan was taken to a large stone room a hundred miles inside the mountain gate by a disciple.

In the stone room, Li Yan looked around. He clearly heard that there were people who wanted to worship in Zhenhun Palace, but he didn't see them here.

He didn't fly very fast just now, and he didn't know if he was delayed intentionally. Li Yan guessed that there were more than one assessment place.

Behind a large table, there was only a young man with a very gloomy face. The young man was reading an ancient book in his hand.

The disciple who came with Li Yan immediately put a "soul slip" in his hand on the table after entering the room, then bowed to the young man and left without saying a word.

Li Yan looked around and saw that the disciple who led him over did not instruct him how to do it.

In fact, there was no need for instructions at all. There were only two people in the room, namely him and the young man behind the long table opposite.

The young man slowly raised his head, but did not put down the book in his hand.

Li Yan sensed that the other party was also a monk in the Yuanying realm, but he might be in the late Yuanying stage.

"Early Yuan Ying monk!"

The young man glanced at Li Yan first. After saying this, he picked up the "soul slip" on the table in front of him without waiting for Li Yan's reply, and then the soul power sneaked into it.

Soon, the young man raised his head.

"Fellow Daoist Li, the assessment is very simple. You enter the room on one side. Inside is a formation. I will adjust the difficulty of the formation assessment according to the level of fellow Taoist.

After you enter, there will be a stick of incense time, and there will be layers of attacks in the formation. You can try your best to break the formation. Finally, the assessment results will be judged based on how many restrictions fellow Taoists can break!

What I want to say is that this kind of assessment is dangerous and can even lead to direct death. Therefore, I can see the entire process of breaking the ban, fellow Taoist, please know this.

Because I want to ensure that at critical moments, I can stop the operation of the formation in time to protect the lives of fellow Taoists. "

The young man looked at Li Yan and said slowly.

"no problem!"

Li Yan nodded.

When the other party saw the process of breaking the ban, it was not only to protect the monks inside, but also to observe the status of the skills he used.

This is also to confirm whether Li Yan told lies when registering outside.

After seeing that Li Yan had no problem, the young man stood up with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Li, please come with me!"

…………

This is a space of ice and snow. In front of you is a vast plain of ice and snow. The howling cold wind is rolling up the ice and snow all over the sky, and is rolling towards Li Yan.

Li Yan could feel the bone-chilling chill here, as if he had really arrived in an extremely cold place.

He stood there and did not move his body immediately. The other party just said that after entering here, there would be a formation prohibition attack, but Li Yan didn't know what attack it was.

Unable to use his spiritual sense, he could only look around vigilantly and be on guard carefully.

After practicing some soul cultivation techniques, Li Yan understood the viciousness of soul cultivation more clearly.

In the past, he could use soul techniques to attack. Now, except for the "pulling soul to kill", which was considered a real technique, the methods he figured out were extremely crude.

To put it nicely, his set was considered an attack. To put it bluntly, he was just a big fool who had a lot of strength but picked up a big stick without any rules when facing the enemy and swung it around.

Not only did he waste a lot of energy in vain, but the effect he could play was also extremely limited.

Those real soul cultivation masters, after attacking the enemy, can make a person look intact, and even make that person talk and walk normally.

But in fact, that person may have been just a walking corpse!

Li Yan just stood here, but after standing there for more than ten breaths, there was no attack. There was only endless wind and snow around, filling the entire sky and earth, and endless coldness came.

"Hmm? No..."

The protective light shield on Li Yan's body suddenly glowed, causing the snow that rolled on his body to fall off.

In just ten breaths, Li Yan felt that his consciousness was a little dull.

Moreover, the coldness here did not decrease due to the operation of his magic power, but it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
