Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#60 - Chapter 60: Finding the Way

Without the Nascent Soul True Person, the Xuántiān cultivators lost their backbone and were at a loss for a time.

As the Sect Leader, Wǔ Yuánkuí was grieving and weeping, clearly unable to make decisions for the time being. The crowd looked at Hú Tiāncōng, who shook his head with a look of grief and indignation, and said nothing.

A quarter of an hour later, the alien demons here were swept away.

Líng Xiāo gathered the Heavenly Devil Abyss cultivators and ordered them to meditate and recover.

Then, he said to the Xuántiān cultivators from afar, “True Person Qí was strong, brave, and righteous, Líng admires him. Moreover, including Líng, all the Heavenly Devil Abyss cultivators here have been saved by True Person Qí. Therefore, Líng hereby declares that the Great Dao oath made with True Person Qí before is still valid. Moreover, whether in this Void Demon World or in the 'Mustard Seed Space', all the Heavenly Devil Abyss cultivators will not take the initiative to attack you!”

As soon as these words came out, the Xuántiān cultivators felt relieved, but the sadness could no longer be suppressed, and it surged out of their hearts like a flood.

After a long time, Yú Tiānwàn broke the deathly silence and said to Wǔ Yuánkuí, “Yuánkuí, you are the Sect Leader, now you must make a decision, what is our next step?”

Wǔ Yuánkuí was naturally bold and acted with the most courage and diligence. Seeing with his own eyes that Qí Tiānxiàng, who was both his teacher and his father, had no remains left, although it made him extremely sad and devastated, it did not crush his confidence and belief.

He wiped the tears from his eyes, opened his slightly red eyes, and said in a hoarse, low, but extremely firm voice, “All Martial Uncles should return the way they came as soon as possible, and I will go alone to find the 'Mustard Seed Space'."

Yú Tiānwàn said anxiously, “How can this be done? How can you cope with the dangerous situation alone!”

Wǔ Yuánkuí shook his head, “Without Nascent Soul combat power, it makes no difference whether ten of us go or one of us goes. It is difficult to say whether the Heavenly Devil Abyss can keep its promise. After all, our purpose is to eliminate the 'Mustard Seed Space', which conflicts with their purpose. They may not believe that we will abide by the agreement and not destroy the 'Mustard Seed Space' formation base and center within seven days. Therefore, one person is enough, success or failure depends on luck, not on the number of people.”

Hú Tiāncōng said, “Yuánkuí, you are alone, it will be a problem to find the 'Mustard Seed Space', let alone enter such a space, it must be extremely vast inside, how can one person find it!”

Qián Tiānwú, Qín Tiānbǎo, Yīng Tiānwèn, and Jīn Tiānwǔ also tried to persuade him, but some wanted to go together, while others hinted that the opportunity was slim and it was better to retreat.

Wǔ Yuánkuí hid his sad face and re-displayed his resolute temperament. He looked around at the crowd, his eyes like knives, and said decisively:

“I have made up my mind, all Martial Uncles, please do not persuade me any more. Master is dead, please Martial Uncles return to the mountain as soon as possible and report to Martial Uncle Tiānfú. If we are all trapped here, and the sect does not know the news, the consequences will be unimaginable if someone with ulterior motives launches a sneak attack.”

Hú Tiāncōng and Yú Tiānwàn looked at each other, both thinking of something in their hearts, knowing that Wǔ Yuánkuí's decision, which seemed impulsive, was actually carefully considered.

At this time of turmoil, the sect must put unity first and overcome difficulties together. Since True Person Qí is dead, Wǔ Yuánkuí cannot go back, which is more conducive to the unity of the Core Formation cultivators than going back.

“Okay, don't delay any longer. Although the alien demons have been almost completely wiped out, it is hard to say where there are still Core Formation or even Nascent Soul level alien demons hiding. Their strength will continue to grow. Let's go! Time is tight, every early breath will be safer!” Wǔ Yuánkuí's tone was stern, seemingly persuading, but actually ordering.

Hú Tiāncōng and Yú Tiānwàn nodded lightly and said “Yuánkuí, take care” at the same time, then greeted the others and flew towards the exit.

According to the agreement between Qí Tiānxiàng and Líng Xiāo, after beheading the alien demons, the Xuántiān Sect cultivators could leave two hours early. More than half an hour had passed at this time, and Líng Xiāo had not urged them. Seeing the Xuántiān Sect's Core Formation cultivators turn around and fly away, he smiled lightly, which was exactly what he expected.

However, the last person did not return with them, but stood there, which surprised him. He looked at Sūn Zélín and signaled him to ask.

“So it is Sect Leader Wǔ, I am Sūn Zélín, the Elder of the Heavenly Devil Abyss. I wonder what Sect Leader Wǔ plans to do here?” Sūn Zélín flew close, recognized Wǔ Yuánkuí, and stopped thirty feet away, asking from afar.

“Elder Sūn, please tell Mountain Master Líng that Wǔ will continue to go to the 'Mustard Seed Space', and everything should be done in accordance with the agreement!” Wǔ Yuánkuí said without looking back, while silently worshiping his master, praying that his spirit in heaven would bless him to successfully complete the mission.

Sūn Zélín was stunned when he heard this, and then responded and hurried back to report to Líng Xiāo.

Líng Xiāo was only three or four miles away from here, and with his divine sense, he had already heard Wǔ Yuánkuí's words. He couldn't help but praise, “As expected, like teacher, like student! The Xuántiān Sect should not be underestimated!”

Wǔ Yuánkuí knelt down and saluted at the place where Qí Tiānxiàng had fallen, then stood up and turned to leave.

He flew to Zhāng Yuánjìng's side, who was still crying, sighed softly, and shouted, “Yuánjìng! Come with me, let's brothers complete Master's last wish together, and it can be regarded as repaying his two hundred years of nurturing grace!”

Zhāng Yuánjìng nodded sobbing, sacrificed his flying sword, and followed behind Wǔ Yuánkuí, heading towards the depths of the Void Demon World.

“Senior Brother, do you also think that I have surrendered to the enemy and betrayed the sect?” After following Wǔ Yuánkuí silently for dozens of miles, Zhāng Yuánjìng finally couldn't help but ask.

“Do you think you have surrendered to the enemy and betrayed the sect?” Wǔ Yuánkuí asked rhetorically.

“Of course not! Senior Brother, do you believe me?” Zhāng Yuánjìng asked excitedly.

“Of course I believe you. When you said you took the Transformation Pill, I knew you were telling the truth. I have also taken the Transformation Pill, and I know its effects and characteristics. So did Master!” Wǔ Yuánkuí said.

“Then why did you question me like that?” Zhāng Yuánjìng couldn't help but get excited when he heard this.

“Because those Martial Uncles don't believe you. Your behavior did lead us into a dangerous situation. If your voice transmission had not given the demonic cultivators an opportunity to take advantage of, how could they have chased us, how could we have been surrounded by alien demons, and how could Master have fallen because of this!”

Wǔ Yuánkuí's words were like iron hammers, hitting Zhāng Yuánjìng's heart one after another, but Wǔ Yuánkuí himself, as the speaker, had a very calm tone, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Zhāng Yuánjìng's lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word. Because, that's exactly what Wǔ Yuánkuí said. He was doing it out of kindness, with a pure heart, wanting to help True Person Qí and Sect Leader Senior Brother, but the actual result was that he put everyone in danger, causing True Person Qí to die, and the Martial Uncles to return halfway, and Wǔ Yuánkuí had to risk his life to fight for that one in ten thousand chance. He did not betray the sect, but what was the difference between him and betraying the sect!

Seeing that Zhāng Yuánjìng was not speaking, Wǔ Yuánkuí sighed and said, “Yuánjìng, I am not blaming you for saying this, nor am I really resenting you for killing Master. The same behavior, some people look at the action, some people look at the heart. Regarding your behavior, Master and I both looked at the heart, so Master did not say that he would punish you. And the Martial Uncles look at the action, so they believe that you are a traitor and must be executed. There is no right or wrong in this, only the consequences.

“If your behavior did not lead to any harmful consequences, it would naturally be lightly dismissed. But if it leads to serious consequences, then it must be severely punished, even if Master and I are willing to believe you and protect you, we have to do so. Do you understand what I mean?”

Zhāng Yuánjìng nodded sadly. The consequences of his behavior can be said to be extremely serious. Even if he can go back alive, he will be executed for the crime of betraying the sect.

“Okay, the past cannot be changed, and it is useless to think too much. If you really feel ashamed of Master and ashamed of me, you might as well help me find out where the 'Mustard Seed Space' is?” Seeing that Zhāng Yuánjìng's knot was difficult to untie, Wǔ Yuánkuí changed the subject, intending to distract him.

During this period of time, Zhāng Yuánjìng was depressed, his heart was bleak, and he was disheartened. His whole spirit collapsed, and his whole body's mana also declined with the heaviness of his mood. At this time, when he heard Wǔ Yuánkuí mention the 'Mustard Seed Space' again, the originally stagnant Earth Force suddenly jumped and began to become active again.

“Could it be that the anomaly of the Earth Force is related to the 'Mustard Seed Space'?” The more Zhāng Yuánjìng thought about it, the more likely it seemed. The 'Mustard Seed Space' is the inheritance place of the ancient Earth Sect, and the Earth Force originated from the ancient sect's Earth Art. There may be some kind of connection between the two.

“Senior Brother, maybe I can find the 'Mustard Seed Space'!” Zhāng Yuánjìng told Wǔ Yuánkuí about the anomaly of his mana and expressed his speculation.

Wǔ Yuánkuí's face showed joy, and he slapped Zhāng Yuánjìng on the shoulder, “As long as there is a glimmer of possibility, we must try it. Just let go of your mind and let the mana flow on its own, and see where it can take us!”

Zhāng Yuánjìng did as he was told. Sure enough, without the restraint of his thoughts, the Earth Force became completely active, like a cheerful stream rushing down the mountain path, sometimes passing through low grass, sometimes passing through the cracks of rocks, sometimes flying straight down from the cliff, unrestrained and arbitrary, and soon filled his whole body, forming a thrust, pushing him towards a certain place in the left front.

As he moved forward, Zhāng Yuánjìng's direction continued to tilt upward. At first, it was only a distance of one or two steps, but after thousands of miles, it was already more than a hundred feet higher than the original route.

At this time, a dark wall appeared in front of him, not knowing its height or width, standing in front and blocking the way. The wall was not straight up and down, but presented an inner arc shape. The person below seemed to be trapped in the side of an elliptical space, and a sense of oppression arose spontaneously. This was the boundary of the Void Demon Space.

“Is that it?” Wǔ Yuánkuí saw a place that透出淡透出淡淡亮光,时明时灭,有如夜风中的火烛.

“Yes, that's the direction!” The Earth Force in Zhāng Yuánjìng's body became more and more lively, and his whole body was jumping, making his originally heavy heart lighter and his depressed mood more active.

“Go!” Wǔ Yuánkuí grabbed Zhāng Yuánjìng's arm and took him like a gust of wind, rolling over.

After a while, a hole about half a zhang square, entwined with black and white energy, appeared in front of the two. The hole was opened on the boundary, and a few rays of light occasionally透出 from the gaps in the black and white energy.
