Cultivation of Immortality: Refining the Innate Spiritual Treasure at the beginning

Although the threat of the demon gathering point to the human race has been greatly reduced, Li Yang still spends most of his time monitoring the demon gathering point, paying close attention to the demons' every move, and only occasionally returns to the human settlement for a short stay.

On this day, Li Yang returned to the gathering point of the Demon Clan from the human settlement. When he was about to sit down in a secluded corner, he suddenly felt that the flow of energy around him was abnormal.

Li Yang was startled and immediately opened his telepathic eyes to look forward.

Although the surroundings were still filled with demonic energy, there were golden energy filaments interspersed in the demonic energy. These filaments were intertwined together, as if forming a large golden net, isolating the entire gathering point of the Sky Demon Clan from the outside world.

At this time, Li Yang was also covered by this energy net. As for the demons below, although they were also in the energy net, they seemed to be unaware and still lived their usual lives.

Li Yang's sensitive eyes scanned around, and finally found a strong man wearing a black cloak in a corner of the golden energy net.

Although this person did not emit any aura, he brought heavy pressure to Li Yang.

In the hands of the black-cloaked cultivator, there is a fist-sized golden orb, and the golden energy that fills the sky is emanating from this orb.

Moreover, there was a fairy aura lingering around the gem, which clearly showed that it was an unusual treasure.

Seeing the other party's attire, Li Yang suddenly remembered that when he had just joined the Human Holy Land, Lei Dong told him about the mysterious organization.

It is said that the practitioners in that mysterious organization all wear black cloaks and hold magical weapons that are filled with fairy energy.

The guy in front of him is a ninth-order perfect cultivator, and his other attire is consistent with the mysterious organization that Lei Dong mentioned.

At this moment, a trace of solemnity emerged on Li Yang's face, because according to rumors, the mysterious organization would capture potential ninth-level practitioners, and any practitioner captured by them would have their natal lamp extinguished not long after.

Li Yang secretly guessed that the other party was most likely coming for him. He just didn't know if the other party noticed when he concealed his body and breath and entered the other party's golden network.

He stood up calmly and prepared to leave. However, as soon as Li Yang moved, he felt a strong force enveloping him, making it difficult for him to move.

"Since you're here, don't leave." A voice sounded in Li Yang's ears.

Li Yang looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the black-cloaked practitioner had stood 100 meters in front of him. He was holding the golden orb in his hand and looking at him expressionlessly.

"Who are you and why are you trapping me?" Li Yang asked vigilantly.

"You don't need to know so much." The black-cloaked cultivator said, "Now I give you two choices. One is that you surrender and leave with me. In this way, you can suffer less. The other is that I beat you half to death and then take you away!"

"You think I should give up resistance just based on your words? You are too confident!" Li Yang snorted coldly when he heard that.

Although he had guessed that the other party's cultivation was higher than his, Li Yang was still a little angry.

Since he embarked on the path of cultivation, most of the enemies he faced had higher cultivation levels than himself. However, the final result was that he had reached the top of Shangxu, while only a few of the enemies that blocked his way survived.

In Shangxu, the Mahayana stage is the pinnacle of cultivation. Li Yang has now reached the early stage of Mahayana, and his combat power has always been far superior to that of his peers. Even if he is facing a cultivator at the ninth level of perfection, he is not afraid.

The black-cloaked practitioner on the opposite side actually asked him to surrender, which was simply an insult to him.

"I can say this because I have the confidence. Your courage is commendable, but you are not good enough in front of me." The black-cloaked cultivator spoke calmly, revealing a strong self-confidence.

The moment his voice fell, a majestic aura rose from his body.

Li Yang had never seen such a powerful aura in his life. The ninth-level practitioners he had met before were far inferior to him.

Feeling the opponent's unfathomable strength, Li Yang's face changed slightly. In an instant, he opened his domain and blocked the opponent's momentum.

"Five Elements Field? That's quite interesting." A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the black-cloaked cultivator. He obviously didn't expect that Li Yang could actually block his oppressive aura.

“You are indeed strong, but you don’t have any chance here.” The black-cloaked cultivator said lightly.

The golden orb in his hand lit up again, and the surrounding energy net branched out, forming a slightly smaller energy net again. This newly formed energy net began to shrink, as if to trap Li Yang in it.

"Hmph! You think you can trap me with just a magic weapon? You are too naive!" Feeling the increasing pressure around him, Li Yang knew that he could no longer hold back.

In an instant, a green lotus platform appeared under Li Yang's feet, blocking most of the pressure for him.

Then, the Five Directions Flag suddenly appeared above Li Yang's head, and the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Formation was activated.

When the energy net controlled by the black-cloaked cultivator approached the spirit gathering array, it suddenly collapsed, and then turned into pure spiritual energy and merged into the spirit gathering array.

Li Yang's Five-Direction Flag originally had the function of refining various energies. At this moment, the Five Elements Gathering Spirit Formation was running, and the refining function was amplified. Although the energy quality in the energy network was quite high, it still could not stop the refining of the Five-Direction Flag.

More importantly, Li Yang has already noticed that this black cloaked practitioner is a gold-attributed practitioner. The Five-Directions Flag has a great inhibitory effect on the five elements of energy. With the Five-Directions Flag, the opponent's energy net will definitely not be able to trap him.

When the black-cloaked cultivator saw this, his eyes narrowed. He obviously didn't expect that Li Yang could easily break his energy net.

"It seems that you still have some tricks up your sleeve. However, do you think you can escape from my clutches like this?" The black-cloaked cultivator said with a sneer.

The golden orb in his hand shone brightly, and the air around him seemed to be solidified by the golden light. Suddenly, the golden orb instantly split into countless golden light threads, which shot towards Li Yang.

Feeling the powerful force of the golden light threads, Li Yang did not dare to be careless at all. He activated the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array and refined all the approaching golden light threads.

"Although your attack is powerful, you'd better not dream of making me surrender with just this little means!" Li Yang said with a sneer.

When the black-cloaked cultivator saw this, his eyes narrowed. He obviously didn't expect that Li Yang could actually absorb his attack.

He snorted coldly, and the golden orb in his hand shook slightly, and all the golden light threads disappeared.

"Li Yang, your strength is indeed beyond my expectation, but don't think you can escape from my grasp like this." There was a hint of chill in the voice of the black-cloaked cultivator, and more intense golden energy began to gather around his body.
