Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#715 - Chapter 714 Broken Bone

"Senior Brother, the remnant soul on that Old Taoist Qin is somewhat dangerous, and also, we don't know if that remnant soul has already sensed the existence of our spiritual treasures. Therefore, Hanyan asks Senior Brother to retreat first." Yu Hanyan sat cross-legged next to Zhang Yuanjing, using a stream of pure energy to separate herself from the dirt.

Zhang Yuanjing nodded and said, "Junior Sister is very thoughtful. This person is a cultivator from the Xuanjing Palace, serving as the shopkeeper of a hall in the Xuandan Hall, holding a high position. It would be best if we can avoid conflict with him. We cultivators inevitably need to trade pills at the Xuandan Hall."

"Oh, so he's a shopkeeper from the Xuanjing Palace. No wonder Senior Brother was so restrained," Yu Hanyan chuckled. "However, this person hides many secrets, and the level of that remnant soul is not low!"

Zhang Yuanjing suddenly remembered Old Yan in the Mustard Seed Space of the Hou Tu Sect and Luo Yuanhao in the Mausoleum of the Xue King, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Before the Middle Ages, there were countless talented and brilliant predecessors. It's not strange that some of them used secret methods to abandon their physical bodies to make their spirits survive for a long time. But in this way, Junior Sister's mission will not be easy to complete."

Yu Hanyan pointed to the towering main peak in front of them and said, "We don't know what kind of mysteries are hidden in this place. If they are revealed, the consequences will be unpredictable. Not completing the mission may be a good thing, indicating that the time is not yet ripe."

After leaving the stone house on the south-facing mountain, Zhang Yuanjing directly used earth遁 to reach the foot of a mountain in the west. There was a Nascent Soul cultivator stationed in this mountain, so the two only found a place to talk from a distance and did not rush to act.

"Even if Junior Sister doesn't do it, the secrets of this place won't be hidden for long!"

Zhang Yuanjing told her about the demon race's acquisition of the earth-grade spiritual object and said in a deep voice, "If we don't take it now, it will be cheaper for the demon race in the future. Moreover, for this kind of trial, whether successful or not, each person can probably only accept it once. If you give up this time, you will not have another chance to obtain the stone sword's clone in the future."

"What does Senior Brother plan to do?" Yu Hanyan asked.

"I'll break the remaining skeletons first, and then I'll haggle with that Old Man Qin," Zhang Yuanjing said nonchalantly. "Even if he has a remnant soul to protect him, I have my own means to deal with it!"

Yu Hanyan obediently nodded: "Then Hanyan will listen to Senior Brother."

After this celestial-like woman transformed into a crystal bead, Zhang Yuanjing once again put it into his storage bracelet and used the earth遁 technique to sneak into the mountain.

This mountain was quite large, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles. There were many rocks in the mountain, and there was a large lake on the top of the mountain. The stone house was on the south side of the lake.

A Nascent Soul cultivator sat suspended cross-legged above the stone house, his body shrouded in a stream of pure energy. The surrounding area was filled with spiritual energy, like rain and mist.

Zhang Yuanjing used the蔽空 to shield himself and approached the north side of the stone house from the ground, then moved slowly. The Refined Yang Umbrella monitored the changes in the Nascent Soul cultivator's spiritual energy and transmitted messages to him from time to time, informing him of the person's situation.

Zhang Yuanjing stopped for a few breaths every few feet to confirm that the Nascent Soul cultivator had no abnormal reaction before continuing to move forward. Before long, he had approached the place where the lake water flowed into the stone chamber.

The person who originally arranged this place left a gap in the stone chamber, not knowing whether it was to facilitate future generations to enter and斩骨, or to leave a channel for this skeleton to absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth. These two things seem contradictory, but they may also be two sides of the same thing, but the reason inside is unclear.

When the spiritual energy within the Nascent Soul cultivator's body rose to its peak, Zhang Yuanjing suddenly drilled upwards and rushed into the water flow. This movement was the loudest, but once he entered the water, his aura was covered by the violent force in the water.

The Nascent Soul cultivator opened his eyes and looked down after a breath. Accompanying him was the power of divine consciousness like hot sunlight, but at this time, Zhang Yuanjing had already flowed into the stone chamber along the water.

The Nascent Soul cultivator stopped his cultivation and slowly landed on the narrow ground on the north side of the stone house. His divine consciousness repeatedly explored this place, and after a long time, he frowned and snorted, then stood with his back to the house and facing the lake, his eyes flashing with divine light, and he occasionally glanced at the soil below the stone house.

There was also a huge incomplete skeleton in the stone house, which was the middle section of the entire skeleton. The skull protruded outwards, as if it had a horn. The body part was a thick spine, which almost occupied the entire stone chamber. There were no leg bones below, only a long tailbone, sloping down to support the skeleton.

Zhang Yuanjing jumped up from the water and flew to the joint at the end of the spine.

The house was dark and silent.

Zhang Yuanjing took out the crystal bead and let it emit a cold light. After a breath, the beautiful figure appeared in the halo, appearing hazy and charming.

"What a strange spiritual energy!" Yu Hanyan looked at the huge skeleton, her eyes full of surprise. "I originally thought it was just a remnant bone that surpassed the Nascent Soul realm, but now it seems that it has other inheritances!"

Zhang Yuanjing asked in surprise: "Does Junior Sister recognize this bone?"

Yu Hanyan pondered for a moment and said, "My Nine Cold Valley's classics record similar remnant bones, which happened many tens of thousands of years ago. According to the speculation of the predecessors at that time, the remnant bones may have come from void alien beasts."

"Void alien beasts?" Zhang Yuanjing had seen the broken bones and heart in the Profound Origin Secret Realm and had long speculated about this. "Who could kill such a powerful existence? What kind of realm and cultivation would this require!"

"Hanyan doesn't know this either." Yu Hanyan shook her head and said, "The predecessor who recorded this matter at the time believed that perhaps cultivators from other realms斩兽 in the void and abandoned their corpses. By chance, they fell into this realm. However, the situation here is very different, especially the flying sword hidden in the giant rock, which was clearly left by a senior expert."

Zhang Yuanjing said: "Forget it, how can we explain the past. Junior Sister, please take the sword to break this bone. When the mission given by the flying sword is completed, everything will be known."

Yu Hanyan nodded lightly, took out the shining, illusory long sword, and said to Zhang Yuanjing: "Please Senior Brother go to the water first. I don't know what the result will be when this sword is cut out."

After Zhang Yuanjing fell below, Yu Hanyan raised the long sword and continuously poured her own mana into the sword. When the blade emitted a cold air, the surrounding area was frozen, and then she jumped up and slashed hard at a certain part of the middle of the spine.

"Boom!"

With a muffled sound, the long sword bounced back, but the spine was unaffected.

The two were wondering when they suddenly heard a "crack" sound. At first, it was one sound after another, but it soon became a continuous sound. Only three breaths later, the skeleton, which was originally as upright as a giant tree, completely collapsed.

At the moment when the skeleton collapsed, countless powerful auras rose from the bones and were all投 to the long sword.

Looking at the broken bones again, they were all the color of dead ashes. They fell a few feet and turned into powder and scattered before entering the water.

Zhang Yuanjing was a little dazed. As soon as the long sword came out, it directly turned the void alien beast bones, which he would have taken a year and a half to refine, into flying ash.

"Senior Brother, I didn't expect this!" Yu Hanyan was stunned for a moment and quickly apologized to Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Yuanjing waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, but his eyes were fixed on the long sword. The flying sword, which had absorbed the broken skeleton, was more transparent and obviously had a few more sharp edges.

"What changes does Junior Sister feel in this sword?"

Yu Hanyan weighed the sword in her hand and said, "It has become much heavier, and the sword energy is full and full, just like a real flying sword."

"When the sword斬骨, did Junior Sister get any benefits?" Zhang Yuanjing asked again.

Yu Hanyan immediately shook her head: "There was no benefit at all."

Zhang Yuanjing said: "The mysteries of this place are still unclear. Let's try other remnant bones."

The layout of this place is that the middle is a high peak that插云霄, and the layout of the surrounding seven peaks is two each on the north, south, and west sides, and only one on the east side.

After Yu Hanyan turned into a crystal bead, Zhang Yuanjing carried it into the water, flowed out of the stone house along the water, and遁 into the soil from below.

However, at the moment when he钻 to the soil, a strong ray of divine consciousness fell on him and stabbed into his sea of ​​consciousness like a sharp锥.

Zhang Yuanjing did not expect that the Nascent Soul outside had been hiding his divine consciousness in the soil, and as soon as he discovered his踪迹, he immediately launched a突襲. In a hurry, he didn't have time to call out Zhang Umbrella to help, so he just condensed his divine soul power and rushed out to collide with the Nascent Soul cultivator's divine consciousness attack.

"Boom!"

A silent loud noise exploded in his ears, and his brain ached. The divine soul power he released was completely exhausted.

Fortunately, the Nascent Soul spread his divine consciousness in the soil, and only a ray of it fell on him. He managed to protect his divine soul from injury by exhausting a lot of divine soul power.

However, with this ray of divine consciousness as a guide, the Nascent Soul cultivator's divine consciousness power had been completely投 to Zhang Yuanjing in an instant.

At this time, Zhang Yuanjing had already taken out the Refined Yang Umbrella, released a cloud of dim light, and covered the Nascent Soul cultivator's divine consciousness power that had fallen. Immediately, Jin Yang rose,巡 in the dim light, and quickly refined those divine consciousness powers.

The Nascent Soul cultivator who was standing by the lake originally looked calm, but when his divine consciousness power was refined, he cried out in pain, his face pale, and his aura dropped rapidly.

A look of shock flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly withdrew his divine consciousness, but the divine soul power he had lost had disappeared.

Zhang Yuanjing quickly seized the opportunity to遁 into the deep soil, released the蔽空, and quickly遁 to another mountain on the east side.

"How is Senior Brother? Are you injured?" Yu Hanyan's voice came, "It's all Hanyan's carelessness for not盯 the Nascent Soul's movements!"

Zhang Yuanjing said softly: "How can you blame Junior Sister. This Nascent Soul is knowledgeable and has probably guessed when he entered the water before, so he hid his divine consciousness in the soil and蓄意突襲. How could we have discovered it in advance! It's still my own carelessness, underestimating the Nascent Soul's methods!"

Yu Hanyan asked a few questions, and when she saw that Zhang Yuanjing was indeed fine, she said: "Senior Brother is really deeply cultivated, even his divine soul is so strong and固, he can retreat completely against the Nascent Soul cultivator. It seems that breaking through the Nascent Soul realm is already a sure thing!"

Zhang Yuanjing smiled and said: "Junior Sister is too誉. Transforming the spiritual soul into the Nascent Soul is a逆天 change. No matter how talented and brilliant you are, relying on the help of pills, the probability of breaking through generally does not exceed 30%. Let it be!"

Yu Hanyan sighed quietly: "The Great Dao is vast, cultivation is in people, and enlightenment is in heaven. Hanyan doesn't know if she can achieve Nascent Soul in this life."

Zhang Yuanjing heard that there was a lot of meaning in her words and said softly: "With Junior Sister's talent and perseverance, breaking through the Nascent Soul is inevitable! The opportunity here is right in front of you, and you may be able to succeed in a few days."

Yu Hanyan chuckled: "Senior Brother seems to be able to predict the future, and even knows that the opportunity here can help me achieve Nascent Soul."

Zhang Yuanjing also smiled: "Why don't I make a bet with Junior Sister?"

"Okay, what kind of bet does Senior Brother want to make?" Yu Hanyan said happily.

"If the opportunity here helps Junior Sister achieve Nascent Soul, Junior Sister has to promise me one thing, of course, it will never be something that embarrasses Junior Sister," Zhang Yuanjing said, but he hesitated to say the second half.

"Um!" Yu Hanyan agreed softly, waited for a few breaths, and then asked, "If not, then what?"

Zhang Yuanjing said powerfully: "If so, I will naturally搜天下 all the things that can help break through the Nascent Soul and present them to Junior Sister!"

"Ah!" Yu Hanyan exclaimed and subconsciously wanted to refuse, "Senior Brother's words are too heavy, Hanyan is afraid it will be difficult——"

"It's okay!" Zhang Yuanjing interrupted her and said decisively, "Anyway, the things to break through the Nascent Soul are also what I need, just搜罗 one more copy! Junior Sister doesn't have to feel embarrassed!"

Yu Hanyan was silent for a moment and said, "Hanyan should endure all kinds of hardships with Senior Brother!"

The two stopped talking, but silence is better than sound at this time.

He遁 all the way to a certain place in the mountain,掘 a cave in the ground, took out a few Yishen pills and swallowed them, and meditated to recuperate. With his current realm, Yishen pills can no longer enhance the divine soul, but they can still be used to heal injuries and recover.

Three days later, his divine soul power was full. He continued to遁 and looked for stone houses on this mountain. There was no Nascent Soul in the mountain, and there was no skeleton in the house after finding the stone house. He turned north again, and there were skeletons in the houses on the two mountains on the north side, and there were also Nascent Souls guarding them outside.

This time, Zhang Yuanjing was very careful. After helping Yu Hanyan break the remnant bones, he first asked Yu Hanyan to use the crystal bead to探 the situation in the soil before carefully遁 into it and leaving quickly.

In just two days, Yu Hanyan broke two more bones. The stone sword's clone became more solidified and was no different from a real sword. The two guessed that this sword might be the body of the stone sword, but it was禁锢 in the giant rock and its aura was too weak. By汲取 the black mud-like substance in the skeleton, this sword has gradually recovered.

The two did not understand its purpose, and they felt uneasy because they felt its power through their respective spiritual treasures, but things have come to this point, and the consequences of stopping halfway are also unpredictable, so they had to bite the bullet and break the last incomplete skeleton.
