Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#786 - Chapter 785: One True Man in Heaven and Earth (VI)

Zhang Yuanjing collected the insect beast's corpse and continued his escape, traveling another 500,000 miles before leaving the Hengduan Mountains.

This time, the route he chose did not pass through Tiannan Immortal City, but passed by the east side of the city.

After entering the Southern Region, the continuous mountains gradually decreased, and the flat plains increased.

Zhang Yuanjing used his divine sense to probe the ground, but he never found the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

He absolutely did not believe that the Deacon Hall would only send two insect beasts to deal with him; there must be something else hidden.

So he continued to burrow upwards, taking the initiative to kill the remaining insect beast.

The insect beast immediately retreated, not engaging him in direct combat. Zhang Yuanjing tried several times, and it was always the same, so he simply went deep into the ground, until it was more than two thousand zhang below.

After the insect beast penetrated more than fifteen hundred zhang into the soil, its speed obviously slowed down, barely managing to descend another hundred zhang before stopping.

Zhang Yuanjing burrowed through the ground at a depth of two thousand zhang, moving very slowly and consuming a lot of mana. He went hundreds of miles, and the insect beast could still keep up with him. He carefully observed along the way and found that the insect beast relied on tracking by scent.

So he took out the ancient treasure Sky Cover, covered himself with it, and lay in wait.

The insect beast instantly raised its head, its eyes emitting a blue light, scanning the depths of the ground, but finding nothing, it couldn't help but show some confusion.

It searched the soil for a few circles, then turned its head upwards and went above ground.

Zhang Yuanjing, using the cover of Sky Cover, quietly rose to six or seven hundred zhang in the soil, waiting quietly.

About a hundred breaths later, several figures broke through the air and landed on the ground above.

A voice asked, "Fellow Daoist Ju, is this where you lost track of Zhang Yuanjing?"

The voice was none other than Guo Songtao.

"That's right. My insect beast is best at tracking, especially sensitive to aura and scent. Zhang Yuanjing must have a rare treasure that shields these two things, otherwise it would be impossible to get rid of its tracking." This person was the cultivator surnamed Ju.

"This is a bit strange, since Zhang Yuanjing has something to shield his aura, why didn't he use it before? He's been fleeing for almost three million miles before using it!" This voice was quite sharp, sounding a bit mean, but it was not one of the five who had previously besieged him and Ape Thirteen.

"That's simple, either this item can't be used for too long, or he can't hold on any longer and needs to use this ancient treasure to hide his tracks and rest on the surface." This was also an unfamiliar voice.

There were six Nascent Soul cultivators in total, and the remaining two did not speak.

"Brother Jin, you are a descendant of the Mo family, do you have a way to force the person hiding in the ground out?" Guo Songtao asked.

The sharp voice said rather smugly, "Since this person has left an aura, I do have some methods. Of course, it depends on whether this person is still nearby. If he has run far away, I can't do anything."

Guo Songtao laughed and said, "Then please show your divine power, Brother Jin!"

After waiting for a few breaths, the soil above stirred, as if some kind of monster was burrowing into the ground, about fifteen or sixteen of them.

Zhang Yuanjing was worried that scanning with his divine sense would collide with the divine senses of the people above, exposing his whereabouts, so he did not use his divine sense to investigate, relying only on his ears to listen to the movement.

These small beasts moved back and forth in the soil, reaching depths of up to a thousand zhang, passing through all the places he had previously traveled. Finally, they stopped above the place where he had initially used the Sky Cover ancient treasure and began to emit a buzzing sound together.

The sound was initially a bit chaotic, but after two breaths, it became uniform, forming sound waves, and surged towards the place where he was hiding.

"How dare you still hide here!" The cultivator surnamed Jin shouted violently, waving his hand and throwing something at the place where Zhang Yuanjing was hiding.

Zhang Yuanjing was quite surprised that this person's methods could see through Sky Cover. However, since he had been exposed, he simply put away Sky Cover and used the Solidify Art in the soil, attacking the monsters.

At this time, his divine sense spread out, and he had already identified that these so-called monsters were just some mechanical puppet beasts, with pointed heads and thin bodies, moving very fast in the ground, but their strength was not high. The strong ones were only equivalent to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and most were only similar to the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Therefore, as soon as he used the Solidify Art, tightening the soil layer where the puppet beasts were located, he destroyed them all.

The thing released by the Daoist Jin was a round bullet made of black iron, which, after entering the soil, seemed to have eyes and went straight for Zhang Yuanjing.

Zhang Yuanjing quickly burrowed downwards, while simultaneously solidifying soil into walls above. The round bullet was blocked by the soil wall and immediately exploded with a bang.

A powerful impact, mixed with the force of the earth, struck Zhang Yuanjing, but he easily resolved it.

He burrowed to the depths of the ground, then used Sky Cover to shield himself, and quickly fled north. None of the six Nascent Souls noticed his movements.

At this time, Guo Songtao suddenly transmitted his voice into the ground: "Zhang Yuanjing, you can run away today, but you can't run away from the sect! If you don't want to implicate the sect, come out now and go with me to see the Chief Deacon!"

Zhang Yuanjing ignored him and continued to flee.

"What do you think these six of us have been doing chasing you for nearly three million miles? As long as you escape, we will go to the Xuantian Sect and directly attack the mountain gate! Don't think that your Xuantian Sect is good at setting up formations; there are people and methods here that can break the Tianque Mountain Mountain Protection Formation!"

Zhang Yuanjing's figure paused, but he did not waver in his resolve and continued to flee north.

While Guo Songtao was shouting, the cultivator surnamed Jin released more than a dozen puppet mechanical beasts again, trying to find his hiding place, but he had already fled far away.

A million miles away, he stopped at the bottom of a remote mountain valley.

Of the Nascent Souls who came to deal with him, only two had appeared on the arena, and the remaining four had joined later. The cultivator surnamed Jin had been identified as being from the Jixia Academy, but the origins of the other three were unknown, but they were likely Nascent Souls from the Jixia Academy or the Eastern Region.

With the opening of the Supporting Heaven Divine Pillar imminent, most of the Nascent Souls in the Central and Southern Regions were probably going to enter it as the first wave of pioneers. This certainly faced danger, but the opportunity to gain benefits was also greater. Although the Nascent Souls of the Eastern Region had arrived at the Hengduan Mountains, they would definitely only enter as reinforcements when a large number of demons entered. This would probably be an agreement between the human race's Transformation Gods and the demon race's Transformation Gods. Moreover, it would still take some time for the Nascent Souls of the Eastern Region to arrive. The same was true for the sea demons in the demon race.

In this way, the Nascent Souls who dealt with the Xuantian Sect would mainly be from the Eastern Region, presided over by the Jixia Academy.

Six Nascent Souls, none of whom were late-stage cultivators, wanting to break through Tianque Mountain was undoubtedly a fool's dream. However, after all, the people who came included cultivators from the Jixia Academy, and if they had methods to break the formation, then the threat to the Xuantian Sect would be great.

A name appeared in Zhang Yuanjing's mind - Cai Fengjin. This Immortal纹宗 disciple was proficient in the art of transforming and changing situations, and according to Tang Zhaoyang, there was a distinction between good and evil in this way. The Yin-Yang family's art of situation from the Jixia Academy was righteous, while the Immortal纹宗's art of transforming and changing situations was evil, and the two were incompatible.

At that time, he did not investigate deeply, but now that he thought about it, if everything Tang Zhaoyang said was false, then these two factions could completely be one family, and Cai Fengjin's surveying the terrain around the Xuantian Sect, seeking to damage the Tianque Mountain Great Spirit Vein, was likely ordered by the Academy! This was very possible. The reason why Fire Crow Daoist was imprisoned was inseparable from Tang Zhaoyang.

In this way, the Jixia Academy had probably already begun to seek to deal with the Xuantian Sect, and not just because of Shu Tianqi!

Thick Earth Creation Cauldron, this Cauldron Lord, what did it say! And what did it do!

Thousands of thoughts came to Zhang Yuanjing's mind, and he unknowingly fell into a daze - he had actually brought such disaster to the Xuantian Sect! If he had known this, why would he have brought this cauldron out of the secret realm in the first place? Wouldn't it have been better to let it and the Mustard Seed Space flow into the void outside the sky!
