Cultivating Immortality in Two Realms

Chapter 544 Cave Mystery

Sansheng Pass.

Inside the cave.

The flow of clear and turbid air forms a portal.

Fang Qing stepped out, his brows furrowing slightly: "The 'Heavenly Hatred' that we had managed to reduce by a small amount has become even more severe..."

The first reason he left directly was that the combined efforts of those cultivators were indeed troublesome.

In particular, the "Ancestor of Time Transformation" is already a true immortal, and the other Mahayana cultivators are all extraordinary, possessing near-immortal combat power.

This is equivalent to a Golden Core True Lord facing an attack from several True Lords at the same time.

Unless one can immediately achieve a breakthrough and advance to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, a strategic shift is necessary.

"A son of a wealthy family would not sit under a dangerous roof!"

"Now it's my turn!"

"The one who ambushed me last time was actually an immortal who had fully comprehended the Great Dao of Time... but his state was a bit strange."

With a thought, Fang Qing immediately set off for the Golden Luan Mountain Lord, who was still inside the 'Secret Realm of Mountains and Seas', heading towards the Taiyin Qingsu Moon Palace...

He stretched and walked out of the secluded room, where he saw a communication talisman outside.

After retrieving the sound transmission talisman, his expression changed slightly.

A faint light flashed on the communication talisman, and Fairy Yu Xin's voice came through: "Uncle Qi, the sect has sent word that your alchemy mission is complete and you may return to the sect."

"Oh... the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm has opened, and everyone who was supposed to go in has gone in, so there's no need for blood sacrifice power... the intensity of the Hundred Races Battlefield has decreased, so we don't need as many alchemists for the time being, and they can take a break..."

Fang Qing analyzed the situation according to his own understanding and immediately had a clear idea of ​​what was going on.

However, this place is rich in spiritual energy, and the cave dwelling is quite nice, so I can stay here a little longer.

He returned to his secluded chamber and took out a white jade gourd from his robes.

Inside the gourd was the 'elixir' obtained from that Taiyin Immortal Palace.

"For alchemists, personally tasting unknown elixirs is an indispensable part... one cannot afford not to try them."

Fang Qing poured out a pure white pill and swallowed it directly.

In an instant, a terrifying magical power emerged, causing cracks to appear on the surface of his body.

Intense white light emanated from the crack, as if a flood were about to burst through a dam.

"As expected of a divine elixir... its effects are truly powerful!"

"Or rather... for someone at the Void Refinement stage to consume a Mahayana elixir is ultimately too presumptuous... For an ordinary low-level cultivator, exploding into death would be the only outcome."

A slight smile played on his lips, and countless illusory golden scales appeared around his body.

These scales are somewhat similar to the "Immovable King's Light Sequence" from the previous "Horse-Headed Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill", but they have a platinum color and are more like demon scales than sun scales!

This was naturally the result of Fang Qing's continuous body tempering after arriving in the Spirit Realm, through the acquisition of the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan's classic texts and even the "Three Profound Techniques of Reverse Scale".

By this time, his physical strength had reached the peak of the fifth rank.

With the help of this elixir, he will launch an attack on the sixth level of body refinement!

"Lock!"

With one hand forming a hand seal, he used his powerful physique and meridians to lock all the immense medicinal power of the elixir within his body.

Then, wisps of silvery-white immortal fire appeared on his body, beginning to burn the illusory scales.

One after another, mysterious runes appeared, wandering among the illusory scales.

In the end, all the scales melted and flowed into Fang Qing's body.

"Not hot enough!"

Fang Qing's divine sense moved with ease as he watched his body change, and he swallowed another elixir.

Boom!

In an instant, the originally violent medicinal power seemed to transform into a giant dragon, rampaging through his body, even mixing with the magical power of the "Nine Heavens Heavenly Book," and launching an attack on the bottleneck of the Cave Profound Realm...

……

The secret realm of mountains and seas.

The "Lord of Jinluan Mountain" arrived at the Taiyin Qingsu Yuehua Palace.

Unexpectedly, the Mahayana cultivators and the silver-robed youths all disappeared, and behind the enormous pill hall, the laurel tree in that corner remained intact.

"They're gone...they didn't even take this fragment of the [Taiyin Treasure Mirror]!"

"Clearly... in the eyes of those cultivators, a fragment of a celestial artifact is insignificant compared to the risks of breaking through this place!"

Fang Qing murmured to himself.

He was essentially still a Golden Core True Monarch, so he only used a portion of his divine consciousness to break through the Cave Profound bottleneck in his own cave.

Another part of his divine consciousness descended upon the body of the Lord of Jinluan Mountain, multitasking as he continued his exploration of the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm.

"What a pity..."

If those cultivators were still alive, even if each of them possessed the combat power of an immortal, Fang Qing wouldn't mind engaging them in a bloody battle... In any case, even if they all perished in the end, it would still be a huge gain!

The spoils of war included several immortal artifacts!

Unfortunately, the other party wasn't stupid either, and they moved away long ago.

"Removing this fragment will definitely be dangerous!"

He stood beneath the laurel tree, watching the petals fall and transform into toads, golden centipedes… and a sneer crept across his face: “But… what does that have to do with me?”

Even if some peerless demon or ancient demon lord is sealed here... once I break the seal and cause it to be released, it will be the natives of the spirit world who will suffer!

At worst, he can simply pack up and continue his wanderings to the heavens!

This is the source of confidence of "True Lord Xuanming Runji". After all, water is said to "moisten downward", which means it is good at moistening!

"And the guaranteed minimum... is that I'll receive a complete Taiyin Immortal Artifact!"

Fang Qing formed hand seals, and the hazy light of the [Ji Shui] transformed into a light drizzle, beginning to erode the restriction.

The laurel tree withered instantly, becoming faintly translucent, revealing what appeared to be a fragment embedded in the tree trunk, enveloped by countless wood grain patterns...

……

Sansheng Pass.

"The Lord of Jinluan Mountain has gone to the Secret Realm of Mountains and Seas..."

Qin Yuzi, Granny Zeng, Master Jingkun, and Fairy Luoyun, four cultivators of the Dongxuan realm, stood together, gazing at the distant scenery.

"As one of the five rotating elders of the Three Saints Pass, Jin Luan's actions are truly excessive; it's practically dereliction of duty!"

Fairy Luo Yun spoke first.

"The secret realm of mountains and seas... If given the chance, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to resist the urge to explore it... Of course, that's assuming I'm not burdened with any important mission."

Qin Yuzi chuckled, "Fortunately, many powerful figures from the alien races have also gone to the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm... the front lines are much safer. The secret realm opened far too early this time; I wonder if there have been any changes within it..."

"No matter what happened, at least Senior Lingxuzi is still here..."

Granny Zeng suddenly asked, "Senior...did you also enter that hidden realm of mountains and seas?"

"This is a top secret of our human race; who would know it?"

Master Jingkun clasped his hands together, about to say something, when suddenly his expression changed drastically.

Whoosh!

Then, the spiritual energy swept across the sky like a whirlwind, heading towards a cave on a side peak of the Three Saints Pass.

shhhhh!

Numerous colorful lights converged, faintly revealing the phantom images of divine beasts such as dragons and phoenixes, along with auspicious clouds filling the sky.

Splash!

A thousand-foot-tall Dharma image appeared, carrying a sense of emptiness and dreamlike quality. It opened its huge mouth and swallowed all the auspicious clouds and phantom images of divine beasts into its belly!

"This...the Profound Dharma Form?!"

Qin Yuzi stood there, stunned: "Breaking through to the Cave Profound Realm? This... which fellow Daoist is breaking through? Canhezi? Qingxu Sanren? Or Demon Blood Butcher?"

These three are all peak Void Refinement cultivators in the Three Saints Pass, and they could take that step at any time.

"impossible!"

Granny Zeng said, "Canhezi is still refining that 'Mysterious Three Wonders Pill.' If this pill fails, he won't dare to challenge the Cave Profound Realm or even the subsequent Heavenly Tribulation... As for Qingxu Sanren? He's still patrolling and enforcing the law in the outside world... The Demon Blood Slaughter Technique has flaws, and he's still working on fixing them..."

"Who is that?" Fairy Luo Yun stared blankly in the direction of the vortex of spiritual energy.

If I'm not mistaken, that place... seems to be the location of a cultivator's cave dwelling from the Universal Sect?

Only then did she realize that the face of that thousand-foot-tall Buddha statue gave her a sense of familiarity.

"It's him... Fang Qing?"

Fairy Luo Yun murmured softly.

"So it was that alchemist who caused quite a stir before..."

Master Jingkun smiled and said, "I haven't yet congratulated the Huanyu Sect on gaining another Dongxuan Elder..."

"This person has only recently joined our sect, and is clearly only at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm!"

Fairy Luo Yun found it hard to believe.

She didn't even know that Fang Qing had broken through to the Void Refinement stage within the Xuanwu Immortal City; otherwise, she would have been even more shocked.

"It seems they've been hiding their cultivation level..."

"Could it be that, like Demon Blood Butcher, his cultivation technique is flawed, which is why he needs to join the Universal Sect?"

Qin Yuzi looked at Fairy Luo Yun: "Should we use a large formation to suppress it?"

"Since this person dared to break through directly at the Three Saints Pass, he must have something to rely on... Besides, do you expect us to suppress the human race's prodigy?"

Grandma Zeng shook her head.

Fairy Luo Yun's feelings were the most complicated. She bit her lip and said, "Let's wait and see... Besides the many difficulties, there's also the subsequent Heavenly Tribulation of the Cave Profound Realm!"

"good!"

Mentioning this, even Qin Yuzi and the others looked on with lingering fear: "The Cave Profound Heavenly Tribulation is different from the Refining Void Thunder Tribulation, so it is about comprehending the Great Dao... Back then, I almost drowned to death from the Heavenly River Weak Water Tribulation..."

"This Fang Qing cultivates our sect's 'Nine Heavens Heavenly Book'... I never expected him to progress so rapidly on the Great Dao of the Void, able to trigger the Profound Celestial Phenomenon, clearly indicating he has already achieved some success in the Dao of the Void... In that case, the Profound Celestial Tribulation he faces is..."

Fairy Luo Yun gazed at the sky and murmured something.

Sure enough, before long, countless dark clouds appeared in the sky, with purple and blue dragons and snakes rolling around.

In addition, a silvery-white void storm appeared, and countless primordial energies transformed into sharp blades, carrying the power to cut through the void, and slammed down on the thousand-foot-tall Dharma image!

"It is said that your sect's Supreme Elder, Venerable Xuan Guang, was exceptionally talented when he broke through to the Void Realm. He faced a double tribulation, a tribulation of lightning and a tribulation of the void called the 'Xuan Qiong Shattering Void Tribulation'... I wonder how it compares to today's Void Tribulation?"

Master Jingkun asked with some doubt in his eyes.

"I've read the records within the sect; this is the 'Ten Thousand Ren Void Calamity,' which is even above the Profound Void Shattering Calamity..."

Fairy Luo Yun said, "This person's talent in the Dao of the Great Void is truly astonishing..."

Under the myriad blades of the void, the thousand-foot-tall Dharma form seemed to be being slowly sliced ​​to death, its size constantly shrinking.

But with a roar, he formed hand seals, and one after another, silver-white light orbs appeared and exploded, annihilating the Blade of the Void...

Following those endless flying blades in the void, one after another, silver-white lightning bolts, carrying an aura of world destruction, crashed down!
