Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Yu Tianwan was very serious, but he only said one sentence, which was to ask Zhang Yuanjing to go to Liuyun Immortal City within a month, as there were important matters to discuss in person.

Zhang Yuanjing immediately went to see the Fire Crow Taoist, asking him to temporarily suspend his comprehension of the cultivation method and take charge of all affairs in the Xuan Yuan Hall on his behalf. This trip to Liuyun City was also a good opportunity to retrieve those senior's insights for him to study.

After thinking it over, worried about an attack from the True Lord of the Abyss of Heavenly Demons, he added, "Senior Fire Crow, if a powerful enemy attacks and cannot be resisted, abandon the Xuan Yuan Hall and let everyone hide in the Xuan Yuan Realm. Presumably, a Nascent Soul True Lord would not necessarily force their way into the realm, trapping themselves in a small space."

In recent years, he had been worried about a powerful enemy coming to his door, so he had not entered the Xuan Yuan Secret Realm to explore, but he knew that there were many dangerous places in this secret realm, which could also be used as a refuge in times of danger.

Seeing that he spoke so cautiously, the Fire Crow Taoist immediately agreed and laughed, "This old Taoist has lived and died many times in his life and is not an inflexible person. If there is a major crisis, I will naturally not stubbornly stick to the old ways and be trapped to death in this hall."

Zhang Yuanjing then went to the Xuan Yuan Hall and summoned Zheng Yuandu, instructing him to assist the Fire Crow Taoist in managing all the affairs in the hall.

Zheng Yuandu naturally agreed to everything, but at the end, he hesitated and said, "Hall Master, Pei, Pei Yuanjian has been imprisoned in the forbidden hall for three years, and it looks like he doesn't have many days left to live. Should we let him out so he can say goodbye to his teachers and friends?"

Zhang Yuanjing frowned: "I originally thought he could live for another five or eight years, how could he be at the end of his lifespan so soon?"

Zheng Yuandu said cautiously, "I think it's probably due to anxiety as he approaches the end."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanjing immediately understood what he meant. What anxiety as he approaches the end? It was probably caused by resentment in his heart after being imprisoned by Zhang Yuanjing.

When a person is about to die, any wishes that can be fulfilled should, of course, be fulfilled. Zhang Yuanjing was not an unreasonable person, and he didn't want to be too harsh and create a feud with Zhao Tiange.

However, at this critical moment, releasing Pei Yuanjian, if he caused any trouble, would inevitably make things difficult for the Fire Crow Taoist.

More importantly, even if this person was released, he would not be able to return to his mountain gate. If he forcibly set out on the road and was killed by the Abyss of Heavenly Demons cultivators halfway, there would be no way to explain it to the sect and Zhao Tiange.

After pondering for a long time, Zhang Yuanjing shook his head: "Keep him locked up for now, and I'll deal with it when I return. This trip of mine will take at most half a year, I think this person can still hold on, right?"

Zheng Yuandu moved his lips a few times, wanting to say something but stopping, and finally said with a smile, "Then we'll wait for the Hall Master to return before we talk about it."

Under the watchful eyes of Zheng Yuandu and Ji Zhengying, Zhang Yuanjing left the hall's protective array and遁ed eastward in the earth.

Along the way, he was quite familiar with the route and quickly passed several strongholds of the Abyss of Heavenly Demons cultivators. He observed them closely and confirmed that there were no abnormalities before continuing eastward, flying rapidly towards Liuyun Immortal City.

From Shumi Mountain to Liuyun Immortal City, it was a total of one million three hundred thousand li. Even without using the Wind-Controlling Carriage, with his cultivation, it would not take many days to arrive.

However, for the sake of prudence, he tried not to fly in the high sky on his sword, but instead used the terrain to conceal himself, traveling at night. During the day, he used the Earth Evasion technique to travel in the earth.

Outside the 200,000 li range of Shumi Mountain, he could hardly see any cultivators active.

In some spiritual mountains and large swamps with rich spiritual energy, apart from some low-level demonic beasts, he could not see any demonic creatures above the Demon Core realm, let alone any Core Formation cultivators.

However, as he approached the 300,000 li range of Liuyun Immortal City, he gradually began to see flying cultivators, including many Core Formation cultivators.

He was not in a hurry to rush, and successively tracked several groups of Abyss of Heavenly Demons cultivators, discovering that these people were all heading towards the area around Liuyun City.

After entering the 200,000 li area of Liuyun Immortal City, he saw more and more strongholds of the Abyss of Heavenly Demons cultivators. The outer areas were still relatively scattered, all located at places where spiritual veins converged.

The closer he got to the Immortal City, the more concentrated the strongholds became, but the number did not decrease. Outside the strongholds, there were also some temporary caves opened up by cultivators, some of which were equipped with formations, which should be places to hide and resist powerful enemies.

Zhang Yuanjing encountered several lone Core Formation cultivators, who were all relatively alert. As soon as he got close, he would be discovered. The other party didn't even think about fighting first to see if they could win, but directly used their escape techniques to flee.

Only once did he release the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast, letting it sneak close and launch a surprise attack, holding the opponent back before he could capture one person.

However, fearing that this person would release a signal for help and attract many enemies, he and Ape Thirteen went up and used heavy hands, failing to control their strength and directly killing the person.

Several days later, with only a little over 100,000 li to the Immortal City, more and more cultivators were appearing in the mountains and fields, mostly two or three Core Formation cultivators, leading ten, twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators on patrol.

Zhang Yuanjing became even more cautious, and unless necessary, he always hid in the earth and遁ed, no longer coming out to the surface.

That day, he was遁ing in the earth when he saw two Core Formation cultivators engaged in a fierce battle at the foot of a steep mountain above ground.

Both of them were using Taoist profound arts, making it difficult to judge whether they were enemies or friends. However, since they were near Liuyun Immortal City, one of them must belong to the Xuantian Sect.

The Xuantian Sect had many affiliated sects. There were no less than eighty or a hundred Core Formation cultivators. He didn't recognize many of them, only those he had met at True Nature Peak during the Ascension Ceremony that day. He had no impression of these two.

Both cultivators were only in the early Core Formation stage. One used two flying swords, one gold and one water, complementing each other. His attacks were fierce, his defense was tight, and he was in a stable advantage, but he seemed a little anxious. During offense and defense, he often switched too quickly. Although his strength was higher than his opponent, he had never achieved any results.

On the contrary, his opponent, controlling a disc, integrated offense and defense, was very patient, never rashly advancing without an opportunity, and even deliberately delaying, as if waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Zhang Yuanjing watched the two fight for dozens of rounds in the earth, but couldn't figure out the situation. Just as he was about to leave, he saw the cultivator who controlled the disc-shaped magic weapon suddenly summon a flying insect. This insect was as long as a snake, but had wings on its back, feet under its abdomen, and a head like a ferocious beast. It made a呜呜sound in its mouth, but did not attack the cultivator who used the double swords, only hovering and swimming around him.

But the cultivator who used the double swords changed his face drastically, his entire face turned pale, and he trembled, "Are you Duan Gong? This is a Soul-Devouring Beast!"

The cultivator who controlled the disc-shaped magic weapon smiled hideously: "That's right! Today I'll swallow you, and my Soul-Devouring Beast can advance! Even a mid-Core Formation cultivator has to surrender!"

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow soared from the ground, flying and crashing towards him.

"Who is it!" Duan Gong was shocked, dodged, and shouted.

At the same time, the disc returned to his side and transformed into a long shield, protecting his vitals.

And the beast was driven by him, directly pouncing on the cultivator who used the double swords.

At this time, he finally saw clearly that the black shadow that flew and crashed was actually a round stone the size of a zhang. This stone seemed to have spirituality, and quickly turned in the air, still smashing towards him.

Duan Gong swept his divine sense, but was bounced back by the round stone, so he simply pushed the long shield and crashed into the round stone.

"Boom!"

The two objects collided, the long shield flew backwards, and the round stone continued unabated, rushing straight to Duan Gong's chest.

A gust of clear wind arose under Duan Gong's feet, flying rapidly into the air. However, before he could accelerate, a cloud of yellow sand enveloped him, covering him.

He immediately lost his direction and quickly summoned the long shield, but found that the connection of his divine thoughts was a bit unsmooth, and he couldn't summon it for a while.

At this time, the round stone flew and rushed again, and he quickly used his escape technique to dodge. Just as he avoided to the side, a jade snake flew over and tied him up firmly, even his meridians were restrained, and he could no longer move at all.

The round stone disappeared, revealing Zhang Yuanjing inside.

He stood suspended in the air, watching the cultivator who controlled the double swords, in the midst of the beast's crazy attacks, was flustered, especially his face, as pale as paper, and sweat dripping from his forehead.

This beast was a bit strange, it seemed to be able to suppress the cultivator's soul.

Zhang Yuanjing would not approach this beast himself. He sacrificed the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace (replica), and with a gentle push, the furnace flew quickly towards the beast.

Just now, when he was in the ground, it was this furnace that saw the beast and became restless, so he decided to take action.

As soon as the beast saw the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, it was like seeing a natural enemy. The arrogance it had previously shown immediately disappeared, and it turned its head and wanted to escape.

But the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace had already flown over its head, releasing a strong suction force, dragging it into the furnace.
