Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 207: Trapped in the Empty Mountain

"What's wrong?" Gao Xian saw that Yun Feiying's gaze flickered as if she had something to say, so he casually asked.

Yun Feiying forced a smile and said, "It's nothing."

In fact, she had a Magical Item that could protect against Killing intent, but it was far inferior to the effectiveness of the spells on Gao Xian's body.

She silently swallowed a Yuqing Pill and lost interest in chatting with Gao Xian for the time being.

Although Yun Feiying was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, her Qingxiao Magical Robe was adept at controlling thunder and lightning. It was in line with her cultivation of the Qingxiao Thunder Technique, and when she activated her escape technique, her body would be surrounded by flickering electric lights, moving at an extremely fast speed.

Gao Xian only used fifty percent of his Qiankun Wheel, but his speed was already far superior to that of an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, Yun Feiying was still able to keep up with him calmly.

The advantage of Foundation Establishment was the ability to fly, easily crossing various obstacles and traveling at high speeds. This alone surpassed countless Demonic Beasts without intelligence.

Less than half an hour into their flight, they had already seen a group of Ironback Azure Wolves.

There were about twenty or thirty of them, with the leader's fur appearing crimson, emitting a strong Magic power aura. It seemed that they were already close to the second rank.

Yun Feiying looked at Gao Xian, seeking his advice on how to proceed.

Killing this group of wolves was not difficult; the difficult part was how to kill them quickly and efficiently.

This was the Nanluo Mountain Range, with dense forests and tall grass. Once the Ironback Azure Wolves burrowed into the depths of the forest, most spells would be ineffective.

Especially spells like Flame Bullets and Thunder Techniques, they were easily blocked and could easily cause fires.

In September, the vegetation was dry, the wind was strong, and if a mountain fire were to be ignited, who knows where it would spread to.

Setting fire to the mountains seemed fierce, but it would only force more Demonic Beasts to become extreme. This was not a good thing for Nanluo City.

Gao Xian used his Divine Sense to transmit his voice to Yun Feiying, "I'll handle it."

He slightly lowered his altitude and unleashed the Ice Arrow Technique from a position two hundred steps below.

Eighteen ice cones whistled and shot down, and the group of wolves instinctively scattered to avoid them. However, the eighteen cold lights accurately pierced through the heads of eighteen wolves, including the leader with crimson fur. They all died instantly under the cold lights, without even having a chance to scream in agony.

The Ice Arrow Technique that could kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator was not something that a group of low-level Demonic Beasts could withstand.

Gao Xian flicked his fingers and unleashed several more cold lights, killing several Ironback Azure Wolves that were trying to escape.

Yun Feiying watched Gao Xian in astonishment. Anyone could use low-level spells like the Ice Arrow Technique, but no one could simultaneously unleash eighteen Ice Arrow Techniques. At least she couldn't do it.

What was even more terrifying was that this low-level Ice Arrow Technique was extremely swift and powerful, even more exaggerated than second-level spells.

What's even more terrifying is that Gao Xian didn't even breathe heavily and unleashed a few more Ice Arrow Techniques.

If so many Ice Arrow Techniques were used on her, she would probably be shot through on the spot.

The more Yun Feiying thought about it, the more scared she became, and even Gao Xian's gaze changed.

Gao Xian thought that Yun Feiying admired and respected him, so he responded with a friendly and polite smile.

During this half year of cultivation, he had found a way to cheat.

It was by having Lanjie help him cast spells while he also cast spells. As long as his own magic power was sufficient, he could cast any spell twice in a row!

The Ice and Fire Ninth Stage allowed him to instantly cast Ice Arrow Technique, and when combined with Lanjie's instant Ice Arrow Technique, thirty-six Ice Arrow Techniques launched together would be too much for someone at the Foundation Establishment late stage to withstand!

Gao Xian was just testing the waters here, and the effect was very good.

If it were in the past, killing these Ironback Azure Wolves would inevitably involve skinning and butchering them.

But now, Gao Xian no longer cared about those Spirit Stones. It was mainly not worth his time.

Yun Feiying never did such dirty work. She never even thought about skinning and butchering. She flew straight ahead without hesitation.

The two of them flew for over a hundred miles and encountered another group of Ironback Azure Wolves. Gao Xian did the same thing, and this group of wolves didn't even see a shadow before they were all killed.

By dusk, Gao Xian and Yun Feiying had already penetrated deep into the Southern Luo Mountains for over a thousand miles.

Both of them were advancing along the line where the Earthly Fiend Qi gathered. For Demonic Beasts, the Earthly Fiend Qi was their source of power, and they would instinctively gather here.

Along the way, Gao Xian killed hundreds of Ironback Azure Wolves. Among them was even a Foundation Establishment level Ironback Azure Wolf.

Gao Xian specifically went down to break open the wolf's corpse and found a pale red crystal core. Although its quality wasn't high, it was better than nothing.

Yun Feiying looked at the late hour and suggested, "Fellow Daoist, let's find a place to rest?"

She had followed Gao Xian all the way here, and although she hadn't taken action, she had still consumed a considerable amount of magic power and divine sense. She was quite tired now.

Furthermore, the Southern Luo Mountains would become even more dangerous at night. It was said that all kinds of evil spirits would appear.

Traveling in the dark night was obviously not a good idea.

Although Gao Xian wasn't particularly afraid, there was no need to be unnecessarily brave. He nodded in agreement.

Yun Feiying set up a formation flag and used a small Six Harmonies Formation, while also sprinkling a potion to repel poisonous insects.

She also prepared a tent, which was quite spacious and even had enough room for a tea table and tea set...

The tent was embroidered with runes, providing good defense.

Although Gao Xian was wealthy, he was far behind Yun Feiying, who came from a prestigious family, in terms of details.

The tent he prepared was very simple and could only shield against wind and rain. He hadn't thought about it much at the time.

Yun Feiying couldn't help but feel pleased when she saw this, and she politely invited Gao Xian to have tea.

The specially fried tea leaves were full of spiritual qi. After being brewed with special techniques, they could bring out the unique fragrance of the tea.

Gao Xian followed along and enjoyed it for a while, secretly making up his mind to get a set for himself when he returned. After all, he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and he needed to have the demeanor of a great cultivator when he was out.

Deep in the mountains of Nanluo, there was a complex ecosystem. In the dark woods, insects and ants were everywhere, and snakes and rats crawled around.

Gao Xian lazily sat on a soft chair and looked up at the starry sky. His keen divine sense naturally spread out, scanning the plants, snakes, birds, and beasts within a radius of five hundred steps.

The information sensed by his divine sense was exceptionally rich. Every blade of grass, every leaf, every insect, and every grain of sand could be clearly presented in Gao Xian's sea of consciousness.

Gao Xian automatically filtered out ninety-nine percent of the useless information and only focused on life auras that were dangerous, such as spiritual qi and magic power.

Within a radius of five hundred steps centered around him, no threatening life forms were found.

The soil layer had a strong shielding effect on divine sense. Under normal circumstances, Gao Xian's divine sense could only penetrate about two zhang underground, unless there was a strong fluctuation of magic power underground.

Gao Xian was not idle. The last time he encountered the rat spirit in the underground ruins, it made him suspicious of the land beneath his feet.

Fortunately, the Six Harmonies Formation could seal off all six directions. Even if someone could burrow through the earth, they would have to break the formation before they could enter.

Furthermore, with his powerful divine sense and Lan Jie presiding over it, even if he entered a state of rest, no magic power fluctuations could escape Lan Jie's detection.

"It's good to have a formation, but the magic power fluctuations emitted by the formation can also attract other things..."

Just as Gao Xian was thinking about it, he saw a gray-white figure appear out of thin air. This figure stood outside the formation and kept waving at him, as if beckoning him to come over.

For a moment, Gao Xian felt that this gray-white figure seemed very familiar.

But he immediately woke up and realized that it was impossible for him to have acquaintances deep in the Nanluo mountains, let alone appear in such a strange way.

Upon closer inspection, the gray-white figure seemed to be a swirling mass of smoke, not a person. Obviously, it was an evil spirit.

Gao Xian felt a little uneasy in his heart. He just realized that he might attract evil spirits, and now one had appeared! This thing was really mysterious!

Without hesitation, he urged his Yang Spear, and the invisible crimson spear fell with a light hissing sound. The gray-white figure turned into scattered ashes under the blazing Yang Spear.

Yun Feiying inside the tent sensed the fluctuation of magic power and hurriedly asked, "Fellow Daoist?"

"It's nothing, just an evil spirit. I took care of it," Gao Xian casually explained, and Yun Feiying felt much relieved.

The mountains of Nanluo were filled with strong killing intent, making it easy for evil spirits to breed. As long as they were dealt with, there would be no problem.

Gao Xian looked at the place where the evil spirit disappeared and fell into contemplation.

This evil spirit is similar to Old Wang, and can easily be eliminated by the Zhengyang Spear. It's just that the timing of the appearance of this evil spirit is too coincidental, as if it was summoned!

"So this is a Qi-sensing phenomenon, and if I don't think about it, it will be fine?!"

Gao Xian is not very sure about this. There are too many theories about the evil spirit, and each theory seems to make sense. The problem is that the evil spirit doesn't follow any logic.

Gao Xian suspects that it may be because he has the Blood God Banner on him. The method of refining this Magic Treasure is mysterious, and it may not be safe even if it is kept in a storage bag.

"It should be a coincidence. Even if it's not a coincidence, it may not be related to the Blood God Banner..."

Gao Xian comforts himself. He can't just throw away the third-grade Magic Treasure, the Blood God Banner, just because of doubts.

Apart from this evil spirit, the night was peaceful.

The next day, Gao Xian and Yun Feiying continued to move forward along the demonic energy. As they went deeper, the number and level of Demonic Beasts increased.

Giant apes with four arms, giant pythons several zhang long, enchanting foxes that can confuse people's souls, and various other Demonic Beasts appeared.

Gao Xian's spells were still invincible, but as the number of Demonic Beasts increased, he became more cautious when taking action.

It is said that there are third-grade great demons deep in the Nanluo Mountains. It would be troublesome if they accidentally provoke one.

On the second day, Gao Xian and Yun Feiying only advanced a few hundred li. The speed of progress clearly slowed down.

By the third day, Gao Xian and Yun Feiying only advanced a hundred li.

On the seventh day, Gao Xian and Yun Feiying arrived above a peculiar mountain peak.

This mountain peak was bare without any vegetation, and there was a large sunken pit in the middle. The pit was deep and seemed to lead straight underground.

The dense demonic energy surged out from the depths of the pit, spreading in all directions like water.

The Abyssal Mountain, the end of this journey. It is also one of the centers of demonic energy in the outer region of the Nanluo Mountains.

Through the Flower Spirit Mirror, Gao Xian could see more than ten strong fluctuations of Magic power surrounding the Abyssal Mountain, all of which were second-grade Demonic Beasts!

This place is only over two thousand li away from Nanluo City, and these second-grade Demonic Beasts pose a great threat to the safety of Nanluo City.

In previous years, the strategy was to kill all the powerful Demonic Beasts around the Abyssal Mountain to eliminate hidden dangers in advance.

It has been proven that this method is very effective.

This time is no exception. Yuan Siping's plan is to eliminate the second-grade Demonic Beasts around the Abyssal Mountain.

Gao Xian doesn't care about the second-grade Demonic Beasts lingering around, but the deep pit that leads straight underground in the Abyssal Mountain has an irresistible attraction, making him unable to resist the urge to enter.

Suppressing the inexplicable strong impulse, Gao Xian mutters to himself, "Something doesn't seem right..."

(Something has come up at home, so updates may be unstable during this period, and there may be interruptions. Life, old age, sickness, and death are issues that everyone has to face. I hope everyone can understand~ Bow)
