Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

"Kid, the key to the Devouring Spell lies in ‘acceptance,’ embracing differences without seeking uniformity..."

In a daze, the words of the Thick Earth Creation Cauldron echoed in his mind.

He subconsciously activated the Devouring Spell, guarding his heart, emptying his thoughts, and allowing the violent power within him to rampage.

His entire body was in excruciating pain. However, this was much better than the feeling of his body and soul rusting away.

He endured the pain, striving to clear his mind, using the intent of acceptance to guide the violent power.

This violent power was caused by the eruption of accumulated pill toxins.

When he was trapped in that spatial secret technique, the pill toxins lacked the suppression of his mana, so they erupted prematurely and fiercely, instantly ravaging his meridians, leaving them riddled with wounds.

His mana also lost control, surging throughout his body, devastating him completely.

Suddenly encountering such intense pain, he didn't even have time to react before falling unconscious.

This could be considered a blessing in disguise. Although the eruption of pill toxins was extremely dangerous, it allowed him to escape from the spatial secret technique.

He didn't know how long had passed, but the rampaging pill toxins finally subsided, wrapped in mana, and continued to circulate through the Thick Earth Creation Art's cultivation route.

At this time, Zhang Yuanjing's consciousness was completely awake. Undistracted, he ignored his surroundings and focused solely on neutralizing the toxins.

Half a month later, the pill toxins were eliminated, and his mana was fully restored. Only then did he open his eyes and scan his surroundings.

This was no longer the Starry Road, but a secret chamber, about thirty feet in diameter. On either side of him were six skeletons, covered in dust, indicating they had been there for an unknown amount of time.

In front of him, to the left, was a stone door with a slot shaped exactly like his umbrella jade.

Could it be that he had already come out of the stele? Zhang Yuanjing was delighted, but not certain.

The internal space of the Intercepting Sky Stele, which was 99% at the level of a Divine Treasure, was probably large enough to hold the entire Xue Wang Divine Tomb.

He even suspected that the so-called Xue Wang Divine Tomb was the Intercepting Sky Stele.

However, at least he didn't have to endure the terrifying torture on the Starry Road. It seemed that failing the experience on the Starry Road would be a punishment, and passing it would be considered a test.

He fainted in time, accidentally breaking the spatial secret technique, which counted as passing the test, allowing him to truly enter the tomb.

He stood up and carefully examined the six skeletons. Four of them had storage bracelets on their wrist bones, while the other two had Sumeru rings on their finger bones.

His heart skipped a beat. In the cultivation world, generally, Core Formation cultivators wore storage bracelets, and Nascent Soul cultivators wore Sumeru rings. This meant the six skeletons represented four Core Formation cultivators and two Nascent Soul cultivators.

He reached out and grabbed a storage bracelet first. However, before he could activate it with his mana, the storage bracelet crumbled, turning directly into a cloud of dust and scattering.

Zhang Yuanjing was stunned.

Storage devices are usually very stable. Even a storage pouch, left for ten or twenty thousand years, wouldn't have any problems.

Not to mention a storage bracelet, unless it had been severely damaged, it should be well-preserved.

He pondered for a moment, unable to understand, and then grabbed another storage bracelet, which unsurprisingly also shattered.

The remaining two storage bracelets were the same.

He could only attribute it to the Intercepting Sky Stele. If the so-called Xue Wang Divine Tomb was the Intercepting Sky Stele, then the spatial power here was different, causing the storage devices to be damaged, which was understandable.

Looking at the Sumeru rings, he couldn't help but be delighted—one of the Sumeru rings could still be opened normally.

So, he carefully broke the extremely faint mana mark and looked inside with his divine sense, but couldn't help but feel disappointed.

There were many items inside, but most of them were various materials for refining weapons and making talismans. Some of them were of quite high grade, but there were no materials for refining the Yang Refinement Umbrella.

These things could naturally be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones if taken out of the tomb, but they were useless to Zhang Yuanjing now.

There were two spirit treasures, a sword and a pagoda. The sword was already broken, as if it had suffered heavy damage in a fierce battle. The pagoda was relatively complete, with a powerful aura, estimated to be of middle grade or higher. There wasn't a single talisman, most likely they had all been used up.

There were more than a dozen spirit plants, but they were simply preserved, and had withered after too much time. However, as long as they didn't exceed the Profound grade, there was still hope to use the Thick Earth Creation Art to sprout new buds.

In addition, there were a large number of mid-grade spirit stones, as many as ten thousand.

However, what truly attracted his attention were dozens of jade slips.

He took them out one by one and checked the contents with his divine sense.

More than half of them were various books, including cultivation methods, secret techniques, pill formulas, weapon arts, etc., all of which were quite ancient inheritances. Zhang Yuanjing couldn't judge whether they were useful.

More than ten others recorded the ring's owner's travels around the world, one of which was about the Xue Wang Divine Tomb.

"I have been in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm for more than three hundred years, and I have been slow to reach the late stage. My lifespan is short, and I am anxious. Recently, many people have said that near the Hengduan Mountains in the Southern Region, there is a secret place called the Xue Wang Divine Tomb, which is the tomb of a Transformation God mighty figure, containing great opportunities. Core Formation cultivators can enter the Nascent Soul stage, and Nascent Soul cultivators can enter the Transformation God stage. It is so miraculous that it is tempting.

"There are also those who say that this is a rumor, because before the establishment of the Xuantian Sect near here, there was no rumor of the Xue Wang Divine Tomb. Only after this sect seized Tianque Mountain did this saying come about.

"There are also senior experts who pointed out that the so-called Transformation God mighty figure Xue Wang Divine is fictitious. After searching the classics of the major sects in the Central Region, there is no such person.

"Some commentators even bluntly stated that the Xue Wang Divine Tomb is a sinister trick by the Xuantian Sect to divert attention and disrupt the situation. It is called an opportunity, but it is actually a trap, harming many Nascent Soul cultivators.

"I find it difficult to know the truth. Coincidentally, my friend True Man Changge sent a letter inviting me, so I happily agreed and traveled hundreds of millions of miles to this remote place.

"Among the companions, there are also True Man Luyun of the Southern Region and Loose Cultivator True Man Yuyin of the Central Region. The four of us entered Xue Wang Mountain. The mountain is filled with gray mist, and those below the Core Formation stage may be confused.

"According to my friend True Man Changge, there are three entrances to the Xue Wang Mountain Tomb. One is located somewhere in the mountain, which is easy to find, but requires a token to open it, but no one knows what the token is to this day.

"One is hidden in a certain abyss, which could be entered and exited normally in the past, but was destroyed in a battle involving dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators, and the endless gray mist in the mountain is emerging from there.

"One is extremely mysterious, appearing randomly, and only those with great luck can encounter it.

"The four of us stayed in the mountain for more than ten years, searching for a way to open the tomb, but gained nothing. True Man Yuyin couldn't wait any longer and left first. Five years later, True Man Luyun left.

"During this period, we encountered many fellow practitioners who came here to seek opportunities, including Xuantian Sect cultivators. After talking with them, they seemed to know little about this place.

"Two years later, my friend and I were swept away by a huge force in a mountain and entered a secret place, which may be the Xue Wang Divine Tomb!"
