Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

After a day and night, there was finally movement above the square pond.

The water surface split in two, like a doorway opening. A middle-aged cultivator in a gray robe, with a pale face, flew out from within, his cultivation at the early stage of Core Formation.

Behind him followed two Foundation Establishment cultivators, one carrying a large sword on his back, as wide as a door panel.

The three emerged from the water, mounted their flying swords, and sped towards the central area of Cluster Mountain.

After they had gone far, Zhang Yuanjing emerged from the earth. He did not chase after the three. The depths of Cluster Mountain were heavily guarded by the Demonic Abyss, and he was not confident he could follow them without being discovered.

He cast his divine sense onto the water surface, which was no different from ordinary water, and offered no resistance. He moved his divine sense downwards, and at six feet, it was repelled by a burst of energy.

He did not forcibly break the formation, but continuously probed the outline of the formation, seeking out the approximate location of the hidden cave.

Then, he used the earth遁 technique, bypassing it from the side.

After several attempts, he finally found the location of the cave. Although its entrance was below the square pond, it was just a decoy. After entering, it turned towards the mountain wall, leading into the belly of the mountain.

He went straight into the earth for over a hundred feet, approaching the cave from below, and sent his divine sense inside. With just a brief look, he took in the entire layout of the cave.

This cave was quite large, with more than twenty stone rooms, used for alchemy, crafting, cultivation, storage, spiritual plants, as well as for entertaining guests, living, and banquets. It was clear that the owner of this cave was a very particular person, who even in temporary residence, wanted to make it as exquisite and complete as possible.

There were still several people in the cave, all Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Two of them were in the alchemy room, guarding a furnace of pills. They occasionally exchanged a few words, discussing whether the heat was appropriate.

The other three were in the spiritual plant room, taking care of several spiritual herbs of good quality. Zhang Yuanjing only recognized two types, Qingyuan Zhi and Butterfly Blue. The former was the main ingredient for refining the Spirit Fusion Pill, and the latter was the main ingredient for refining the Harmony Yuan Pill, both excellent spiritual herbs.

Zhang Yuanjing smiled, this was an unexpected gain. He slowly ascended, quietly appearing in the passage in the middle of the cave.

He first released the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast, pointed it towards the alchemy room, and told it to subdue the two guarding the furnace, while he himself went to the spiritual plant room.

The stone room door was not closed, and Zhang Yuanjing walked directly into the room. The three Foundation Establishment cultivators inside were all stunned when they saw Zhang Yuanjing, because this was completely unexpected.

Zhang Yuanjing unleashed his magic power, instantly immobilizing the three. The three were frozen in place, unable to move, unable to even open their mouths to shout, their eyes filled with fear and despair.

At this moment, the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast had already knocked out the two in the alchemy room, and was making squeaking noises.

Zhang Yuanjing waved his hand, knocking the three unconscious, and released Ape Thirteen, telling it to watch over the three, while he himself went to the alchemy room.

As soon as he entered the room, a faint and fragrant scent of pills entered his nose.

A look of surprise appeared in Zhang Yuanjing's eyes - the pills being refined in this furnace were Spirit Fusion Pills. The owner of this place was actually an alchemist of no low level.

He had originally intended to interrogate the two Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the furnace, but now he changed his mind, directly having the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast create a illusion, and questioned them in the illusion. Before long, he learned the identity of the cave owner, as well as the refining techniques and key points.

The owner of the cave was named Han Rangyuan, who had extremely high talent in alchemy, and was one of the three great alchemists of the Demonic Abyss.

He resided here mainly to refine pills for the other Core Formation cultivators of the Demonic Abyss. He had not just come here in the last two years, but had opened up this cave as early as twenty years ago.

Over the past twenty years, several Core Formation cultivators had come to build caves here, living next to Han Rangyuan.

Two years ago, many Core Formation cultivators suddenly came to garrison in this mountain. The two did not know exactly how many there were, but there were obviously more Core Formation cultivators visiting Han Rangyuan.

Just now, Han Rangyuan had gone out to return a visit to a Core Formation cultivator of high status.

In terms of timing, it matched up. Tong Tianfu was plotting against the Demonic Abyss, and the Demonic Abyss was not to be trifled with. They quickly laid out plans and set up an ambush here to lure the Core Formation cultivators of Flowing Cloud City.

Of course, this was actually a contest of patience. If Flowing Cloud City held firm and did not come out, this arrangement would be useless.

However, the Demonic Abyss must still be putting pressure elsewhere, causing True Man Tong to change his plan, and let him go out to raid the Demonic Abyss strongholds, luring the True Persons of the Demonic Abyss to take action.

However, there were still many questions in this. The biggest one was that the Demonic Abyss had four True Persons. Even if the Core Formation cultivators of Flowing Cloud City came out together, and could use his Zhang Yuanjing's means of destroying strange insects to break the Demonic Abyss ambush in Cluster Mountain, as long as one True Person from the Demonic Abyss came over, what would Tong Tianfu do?

If he guarded near Flowing Cloud City, then the Profound Origin Hall would definitely be breached by the other three Demonic Abyss Nascent Soul cultivators. If he guarded near the Profound Origin Hall, he would definitely not be able to rescue Cluster Mountain.

These Core Formation cultivators of Flowing Cloud City were the backbone of the resistance against the Demonic Abyss. If they suffered heavy losses, how would they protect the huge mountain gate in the future?

The Demonic Abyss did not know that he, Zhang Yuanjing, had already come out of the Profound Origin Hall and arrived here. Therefore, that side must be the focus of the other party's arrangement, and Tong Tianfu was probably guarding there.

If so, how should they deal with the Demonic Abyss Nascent Soul that might appear here in Cluster Mountain? Tong Tianfu could not split himself into two, could he?

Suddenly, a thought popped into his mind: Could it be that Tong Tianfu knows that I have a Xiantian Spiritual Treasure on my body?

As soon as this thought came out, Zhang Yuanjing's whole body shook, and he couldn't help but tremble.

If this was the case, everything would make sense. Why did he let him guard the Profound Origin Hall alone? Why did he change the plan and let him go out to attack the enemy? Tong Tianfu had calculated everything clearly.

With a Xiantian Spiritual Treasure to protect him, he was not afraid of any Core Formation cultivator. If a Nascent Soul approached, this treasure could also warn him, and he was good at earth遁, so there would be no problem in protecting himself.

Even if a Nascent Soul came to Cluster Mountain, if the other party was unprepared, the Xiantian Spiritual Treasure could very likely hit with one blow and achieve unexpected results.

He wanted to laugh at himself for being delusional and paranoid, but there was always a voice in his heart telling him that Tong Tianfu was calculating like this!

In the past, he had no understanding of Tong Tianfu. Wu Yuankui also rarely talked to him about this senior uncle. Only once, he told him that if he met this senior uncle, he must be courteous and respectful, and not be slightly offensive.

At that time, he did not think much about it, thinking that it was just due respect for a senior with profound cultivation. Now that he thought about it, Senior Brother Wu's words had other meanings.

Perhaps seeing that Zhang Yuanjing had been thinking for too long, and the fire in the furnace had changed, the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast squeaked at Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Yuanjing was awakened and looked at the furnace, but it was time to add spirit stones and increase the heat. If it was any later, this furnace of pills would be ruined.

He looked at the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast with some surprise, took out five low-grade spirit stones from the storage bracelet, embedded them at the bottom of the fire-gathering array under the furnace, and operated the array to increase the firepower until it reached a moderate level before stopping, staring at the furnace to observe carefully.
