Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#490 - Chapter 489 Earth Movement

Inside the mine, the Refined Sun Umbrella emitted a protective force, completely concealing the activity within.

Wen Zaidao and Lu Dingyi were unable to discern what was happening inside, and for a moment, they were indecisive and dared not approach directly.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, let's attack the outer stone wall first, directly collapsing the mine. He won't die!" Wen Zaidao quickly came up with an idea.

Lu Dingyi didn't say anything; he changed the hand seals, and two of the five fire dragons behind him immediately bombarded the stone walls on both sides of the mine.

"Buzz!"

The two spears struck the wall simultaneously, emitting a trembling sound. Under the attack of this powerful spiritual treasure, both walls were blasted with a foot-deep and three- to four-foot-wide gap.

Lu Dingyi frowned immediately. With the power of the Five Tyrant Flying Dragon Spears, even a mountain could be collapsed, yet it could only leave such a small mark on this stone wall.

"This is a massive stone, the stone vein from which the five-colored spirit gold is derived, the most坚硬, but as long as we attack it a few more times, we can break it open."

While explaining, Wen Zaidao sacrificed a giant sword as wide as a door panel and struck the gap blasted out by Lu Dingyi on the left side of the mine.

This sword was powerful and heavy. With one slash, it penetrated more than a foot into the stone, then burst open to the left and right, sweeping down two large stones, expanding the original gap by more than double.

A fierce glint flashed in Lu Dingyi's eyes. He raised his right hand and, with a hand seal, guided the other three fire dragons, which were ready to attack, to launch a strong attack into the mine.

Anxiety flashed across Wen Zaidao's face. He moved his mouth as if to say something but stopped. He no longer controlled the giant sword to strike the stone but stared intently into the mine.

"Bang! Bang, bang!"

Three consecutive sounds rang out. The first sound was at the entrance of the mine, and the latter two were from a depth of about ten feet.

Lu Dingyi snorted lightly, "That's all there is to it. Just a Core Formation cultivator, yet he possesses a Xiantian spiritual treasure. How many of my attacks can he withstand!"

He gestured with his left hand, launching the other two spears to continue the attack.

"Real Person Lu, save some strength, don't kill him!" Wen Zaidao finally couldn't help but remind him.

Lu Dingyi said in a deep voice, "I know what I'm doing."

At this moment, two more impact sounds came, the first being blocked by some powerful spiritual force, and the second being the sound of the spear hitting a hard stone wall.

The two immediately felt that something was wrong, and their divine senses plunged inward. However, the mine, which was only a little over ten feet deep, was nowhere to be seen.

The two immediately extended their divine senses inward, only to see that the innermost stone wall of the mine had been dug out into a four-foot-wide and thirty-foot-deep passage, and at the end of the passage was a dark layer of soil.

Following the passage, the two swept their divine senses into the soil and saw a black shadow slowly moving about twenty feet diagonally above.

"Didn't you say he couldn't use earth遁术 here?" Lu Dingyi glared at Wen Zaidao and asked angrily.

Wen Zaidao didn't answer. He landed his flying sword and arrived at the entrance of the mine.

He didn't immediately enter the cave but stood outside, pondering.

A slight sound of wind moved behind him, and Lu Dingyi landed ten feet behind him.

"If you hesitate any longer, that kid will run away! It won't be easy to lure him into a trap again next time!"

Wen Zaidao replied irrelevantly, "How long has it been, and he's already dug out such a passage? How do you say he did it?"

Lu Dingyi frowned and snorted coldly, "Who cares how he did it! Since he drilled into the earth, is Real Person Wen afraid!"

Wen Zaidao smiled self-deprecatingly upon hearing this but didn't know how to answer him.

Zhang Yuanjing knew that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator from the 厚土宗, who was also skilled in earth遁术, yet he chose to escape from the ground. Did he think he could surpass him in earth遁术, or was he hiding some killing move?

However, in the deep earth of more than six hundred feet, it was equally difficult for him, a Nascent Soul cultivator. The speed of遁行 was not much faster than Zhang Yuanjing's current speed.

And Zhang Yuanjing, a Core Formation cultivator, was performing earth遁术 almost on par with him, a Nascent Soul cultivator, which undoubtedly showed that his earth skill inheritance was far superior to his.

Back then, in the Mustard Seed Space, three cultivators from their 厚土宗 cultivated with Zhang Yuanjing, but in the end, Zhang Yuanjing obtained the status of a true disciple and obtained the complete 土功八诀 and 厚土功, while the three of them obtained mostly incomplete versions.

Wen Zaidao's divine sense was always tightly locked onto Zhang Yuanjing. He could see clearly that Zhang Yuanjing was now wearing a thick layer of stone armor on his body, and it was this stone armor that blocked most of the earth power, allowing him to遁行 in the six-hundred-foot-deep earth with the cultivation of a Core Formation cultivator.

"Real Person Wen, if you continue to hesitate, that kid will really disappear! Are you, a dignified Nascent Soul, afraid of fighting that kid in the ground?"

Lu Dingyi was half dissatisfied and half disdainful, "The reason that kid can kill Nascent Souls is only because of that Xiantian spiritual treasure. Can this thing be used in the earth? Without the Xiantian spiritual treasure, can he threaten you? If you are so incompetent, my 天魔渊 will not cooperate with you!"

"Real Person Lu, why be anxious? At this kid's speed, even if you give him an hour, he won't be able to escape." Wen Zaidao smiled, putting on a confident look, "Since Real Person Lu has ordered, Wen will follow."

He lifted his foot and walked into the mine, quickly passed through the passage, and used earth遁术 to drill into the earth.

As soon as he was in the earth, a tsunami-like earth force squeezed in from all directions, causing his breathing to pause. Only when the mana in his Dantian flowed up did he continue the Qi flow.

Wen Zaidao was secretly shocked. It wasn't that he hadn't dived into the six-hundred-foot-deep soil layer, but that was all done from top to bottom, adapting little by little. This was the first time he had entered directly.

Looking at Zhang Yuanjing again at this time, his mood immediately changed. Although there was still suspicion and vigilance, there was more enthusiasm.

The complete 土法八诀 was so powerful. If he obtained it, wouldn't he be even more powerful? Where in the world could he not go!

So, he raised a mouthful of tempered, pure, and yang mana, spread it around his body, slightly relieving the pressure of the earth force, and then used遁术 to chase after Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Yuanjing had gone up more than thirty feet. As the pressure of the soil layer decreased, his遁行 speed became much faster.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Wen Zaidao was naturally faster. It only took him less than ten breaths to catch up to four or five feet behind Zhang Yuanjing.

This was because he was worried that Zhang Yuanjing was hiding some tricks and deliberately slowed down.

However, to his surprise, Zhang Yuanjing began to go down again.

In an instant, a thought flashed through Wen Zaidao's mind: to rush up and capture Zhang Yuanjing directly. But this was too risky, so he didn't put it into practice.

He didn't immediately follow and潜行 down but stopped in place to see what tricks Zhang Yuanjing was playing.

Zhang Yuanjing sank to six hundred feet into the ground and stopped going down, but at this depth, he went north.

Wen Zaidao was遁行 in the five hundred sixty- to seventy-foot soil layer. He locked onto Zhang Yuanjing's Qi. When Zhang Yuanjing was fast, he accelerated; when Zhang Yuanjing slowed down, he slowed down as well. In short, he kept tracking him in the upper soil layer, not letting him escape.

Zhang Yuanjing, however, seemed unaware and just kept遁行 north.
