Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Zhang Yuanjing spent half a month refining this foot-and-a-half-long broken bone, consuming no less than fifty Tongyun Pills. Fortunately, he had practiced the Devouring Art in the Earth Method Eight Arts for many years and was adept at resolving pill toxins; otherwise, he would have long gone mad from cultivation deviation.

He asked the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast, which had been standing quietly by his side, what changes had occurred after swallowing the black mud-like substance. The beast merely shook its head, seemingly uncertain about the mysteries within.

He then asked if it was harmful. This time, its answer was very clear, shaking its head to indicate that there were no issues.

This made Zhang Yuanjing quite happy. He had worked hard for over a year to collect and refine these broken bones. If the acquired objects were unusable, it would truly be a waste of his precious time.

He refined a great deal of this black mud-like substance this time. He had the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast swallow a large chunk and instructed it to inform him promptly if there were any changes in its body.

Returning to the swamp, he went to collect bones himself, leaving the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast to refine the black mud-like substance.

This time, Zhang Yuanjing chose a section of broken bone that resembled a leg bone, over three zhang long. The bone was thick and sturdy, and the released malice was like a torrent, violently bombarding his divine soul.

Having experienced the previous few instances of seizing energy and collecting bones, Zhang Yuanjing had become quite accustomed to the attacks of this malice. Even though the malice released by this broken bone was very strong, it could not affect his entering meditation and circulating his energy.

This time, the being in the other dimension did not drive the whisker beasts and the strange beast to attack, until he had completely collected this broken bone.

It seemed that the being in the other dimension had merely accumulated some power, which had been completely exhausted in that demonic sound.

However, Zhang Yuanjing had already made up his mind, so he cast this speculation aside and did not even consider the possibility of breaking into the other dimension to directly confront that being.

Thus, he seized energy, collected bones, and refined bones, traveling back and forth between the swamp and the wilderness. In the blink of an eye, another three years had passed.

In these three years, he only collected three broken bones, all over two zhang long and quite thick.

The being in the other dimension did not attack again, nor did it drive the whisker beasts or strange beasts to interfere with him, it was unknown whether it was accumulating power or waiting for an opportunity.

During this time, nothing major happened in the Profound Origin Hall. Only Huo Zhengkai and Zhou Zhengming were summoned by the Hall of Law Enforcement to undertake assignments. Zhang Yuanjing had Zheng Yuandu send a message to Han Ji of the Palm Profound Hall, instructing him to monitor their movements and report any issues promptly. If there was any danger, he could directly ask Hall Master Liu Yuanqing to intervene.

The Heavenly Devil Abyss had completely retreated back to Huan Yue Mountain, and there was no trace of them within a million miles west of Azure Peak.

At this time, only the last and largest piece of broken bone remained in the soil beneath the swamp.

This was a section of spine, six zhang long, buried more than two hundred zhang underground. A long cave with a diameter of two zhang had formed around it, and it absorbed an immense amount of spiritual energy.

As soon as Zhang Yuanjing entered this gathering place of spiritual energy, he felt the vitality of his entire body surge. Knowing that this place was good for cultivation, he immediately dug a large hole, released both the Origin Stone and the Sun Refining Umbrella, and then began to meditate and cultivate.

The Heavenly Fire Flowing Gold Grass he was cultivating was already close to three chi tall, with golden light and fire colors flowing. The funnel-shaped spiritual energy vortex at the top was also on the verge of appearing.

Although he did not know the exact age of this grass, it was comparable to the one he initially obtained in the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, and was obviously very close to maturity.

He originally intended to absorb the spiritual energy here steadily and cultivate this grass first, so that he could start refining a few furnaces of Molten Gold Tempering Pills. However, this spinal bone was very different, and it actually took the initiative to approach him, spreading intense malice as it approached.

Under this influence, Zhang Yuanjing was unable to cultivate at all, so he took out the Armor Piercing Axe and directly chopped at the bone. The bone did not dodge or evade, allowing the sharp axe to strike it, but it was completely unharmed.

He tried a few more axes, but still had no effect. Knowing that the bone's hardness was such that magical treasures could not harm it, he drove the Sun Refining Umbrella to attack.

In addition to the soul-restricting power, the Sun Refining Umbrella also had a technique for gathering power to attack enemies, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not damage the spine.

The hardness of this bone was such that it could withstand the attacks of an innate spiritual treasure.

Zhang Yuanjing could not help but click his tongue, but for a moment, he had no way to deal with it. Fortunately, this thing did not directly attack him, otherwise he would have had to flee.

After a stalemate for half a day, Zhang Yuanjing thought it was not a solution, so he retracted the Sun Refining Umbrella, recalled the Origin Stone to protect his body, and went straight to the soil layer below.

He speculated that the reason why the spinal bone took the initiative to approach him was mostly due to the being in the other dimension.

Therefore, he made up his mind to use an isolation array to first isolate the other dimension from this place, and then collect the spinal bone.

However, the closer he got to the other dimension, the more careful he became, not only tensing up all the magic power in his body, but also maintaining a high degree of vigilance in the divine soul in his sea of consciousness.

Holding the Sun Refining Umbrella in his hand, he prepared for defense, so that even if he could not block the demonic sound of that being, he could at least defend against the attack of the strange beast.

At the same time, he communicated with Ape Thirteen in the spirit beast pouch, so that if it sensed any abnormality in his divine soul, it would immediately transmit the power of his divine soul over, without any hesitation.

The isolation array refined by Fire Crow Daoist was at the Core Formation level. Setting up the array base was quite complicated, and Zhang Yuanjing spent a full three hours setting it up.

Then, he chose a location, dug a hole, and placed the seven Xuan Iron array flags inside.

Afterward, he directly took out ten middle-grade spirit stones and placed them at the array base. In an instant, invisible energy spread out in all directions. Although the speed of travel was very slow due to the obstruction of the soil, it continued to expand and connected with the array flags, forming a complete barrier that sealed the entrance to the other dimension.

At the beginning of the array, there was nothing unusual. But not long after, the entrance to the other dimension began to stir. The originally imperceptible passage suddenly became clear, gradually opening from a grain of dust and quickly turning into a hole about ten zhang in size.

Inside the hole, it was a chaos, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Zhang Yuanjing was a little puzzled, wondering what the being in the other dimension wanted to do. However, out of caution, he quickly retreated, away from the isolation array.

"Moo! Mang!"

The two demonic sounds seemed to be right next to his ear, piercing straight into his divine soul. In an instant, he felt as if his entire head was about to explode.

But in just a flash, the power of the divine soul came from the spirit beast pouch, dragging him back from the brink.

The demonic sound did not directly harm the divine soul, but suddenly fascinated the divine soul, causing it to have the illusion that the head was about to explode. If he believed it to be true, then the illusion would become reality.

Fortunately, Ape Thirteen reacted very quickly this time. As soon as it sensed something wrong with his divine soul, it transmitted the power of the divine soul, awakening him from the illusion, so that he escaped a disaster.

He calmed his mind and swept his divine sense over, but was startled. The isolation array he had just set up had become dilapidated, the array base was completely broken, and none of the seven array flags were intact. Even the surrounding soil layer was completely out of shape, and the area within tens of zhang was distorted beyond recognition.

This showed that the two demonic sounds also had other powers attached to them, but they were blocked by the isolation array and withstood by the thick soil layer, so they were not applied to him.

Just as he was shocked, the passage in the other dimension suddenly made a "hissing" sound, as if something had leaked air.

He "looked" with his divine sense, but saw that the cave suddenly became clear, and an object inside revealed its true appearance—it was a dry heart!
