Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

The group of three humans and two beasts emerged from the trapped formation, first passing through a pitch-black tunnel, then pushing open a wooden door adorned with a divine sense isolation enchantment, revealing a brightly lit hall.

This was likely the main hall of the Dragon King's Palace.

The place was lavishly decorated. In the center, at the far end, was a large tiger-skin chair, upon which sat an old man in his fifties. His hair was draped over his shoulders, and he wore a wide, golden robe, muttering something under his breath, appearing rather bored.

When Fire Crow Taoist pushed open the wooden door, his movements were very light, making not a sound, so the old man didn't notice them immediately.

But as the three humans and two beasts crossed the threshold and entered the hall, the old man immediately stood up.

"Elder Qin has already taken… You're still alive?"

The old man hadn't expected the one who came out wasn't Elder Qin, the person he relied on, but rather the Xuan Tian Sect Core Formation cultivators they had planned to kill first, so he was shocked.

"Of course, we're alive!" Fire Crow Taoist said with a smile. "You must be the Water Dragon King?"

Huo Zhengkai whispered from behind, "It's him."

Zhang Yuanjing swept his divine sense around and found Xiao Yousong lying on the carpet a little over three meters west of the tiger-skin chair where the old man was sitting, his eyes rolling around.

He must have been placed under a restriction, unable to move, but judging from his reaction, his divine sense was unaffected.

The golden-robed old man only had early Core Formation cultivation. Facing two Core Formation cultivators and two Demon Core True Demons, his first reaction wasn't fear, but a stern question: "What have you done to Elder Qin? Where is he!"

"Burned to ashes!" Fire Crow Taoist replied with a smile.

As he spoke, he activated his divine sense, spreading it out like a vast net towards the outside of the hall. However, it was blocked by a force on the outer walls of the palace, unable to penetrate it.

He immediately understood that the formation set up in this palace was very powerful, completely isolating the inside from the outside. Divine sense couldn't penetrate from the outside in, nor could it examine the outside from within. It was clearly specially arranged to lure and kill him and Zhang Yuanjing.

"Ah! Elder Qin is dead! Elder Qin is dead!" Upon hearing Fire Crow Taoist's words, the golden-robed old man was first stunned, then screamed madly, his voice shrill, like a wolf or owl, as if trying to send a message out and call for his companions.

However, in his panic, he had forgotten that the Dragon King's Palace was shielded by a formation, so how could his voice be transmitted?

This reaction was quite unexpected by Fire Crow Taoist and Zhang Yuanjing. They couldn't help but be surprised and amused.

It seemed that the death of "Elder Qin" had really frightened this person. Facing four Core Formation existences, he didn't run away immediately, but instead shouted and screamed. Of course, this also showed that "Elder Qin" had an extraordinary status among them.

"Who is Elder Qin? Why are you so nervous?" Fire Crow Taoist asked with a smile.

"You dare to kill Elder Qin, you are doomed!" The golden-robed old man reacted at this time, but still didn't run away, instead taking out a sound transmission jade, intending to send a message to the outside.

How could Fire Crow Taoist let him call for reinforcements and increase the trouble? He immediately waved his hand forward, and a ball of fire was born out of thin air, rushing towards the golden-robed old man.

Faced with the crisis, the man's body spasmed inexplicably, and the sound transmission action stopped abruptly. His hands quickly made an outward pushing motion, and a water shield condensed, blocking Fire Crow Taoist's fire.

Fire Crow Taoist raised his eyebrows slightly, and the magic power in his hand instantly increased threefold. The ball of fire soared up, turning into countless fire bullets falling like rain.

The golden-robed old man could clearly retreat, but he stood there as if his feet were rooted to the ground, not moving half a step. He lifted his hands vigorously, and another emerald-colored water shield emerged, protecting the top of his head.

At this time, Zhang Yuanjing also saw that on the middle fingers of both hands, the man wore a light blue ring. Whenever he released a water shield, a bright color would flash across the ring.

Obviously, this pair of rings was a rather unique water-attribute magic weapon. It didn't directly confront the enemy, but it allowed the wearer to release specific types of magic skills.

However, Fire Crow Taoist's rain of blazing flames, infused with the True Fire of Ten Thousand Beasts, was not so easy to block.

"Chichi chi—"

The sound of flames being extinguished was endless. Water mist rose.

The water shield condensed by the golden-robed old man shrank at an extremely fast speed, and soon only had a foot or so left, unable to protect against the incoming fire rain above.

At this moment, the golden-robed old man moved. A cloud of clear water appeared under his feet at some point, lifting him half a foot off the ground, and he flew towards the entrance of the hall at lightning speed.

It turned out that the reason why this person had resisted Fire Crow Taoist's two attacks was not because he had any reliance, nor was it to avenge "Elder Qin" at the cost of his life, but to buy time to set up a waterway on the ground to facilitate his escape.

This was a type of water-based escape technique. The profound ones can even use a single drop of water to perform water escape.

This person's cultivation was quite shallow, at most just entering the Core Formation stage, so he needed to make preparations in advance to perform water escape.

Fire Crow Taoist laughed and cursed, "Not completely a fool, he even knows this trick."

A flash of fire, and he had already used the Fire Escape Technique, arriving first and blocking the exit of the hall.

The golden-robed old man didn't dare to force his way through. He twisted his body and still used the Water Escape Technique, rushing towards Zhang Yuanjing. At the same time, he joined his hands together, and the light from the two light blue rings connected, and a stream of ink-colored torrents flew out.

Zhang Yuanjing waved the Thick Earth Spell Sword in his hand, and an earth wall stood in front of him. Without looking at the effect, he used another move of Flying Sand, and suddenly, a sky full of yellow sand enveloped him, completely covering the golden-robed old man.

The golden-robed old man separated his hands, and water-attribute magic power continuously poured out from the two blue rings, quickly covering his body with a layer of water armor, isolating the invasion of the wind and sand.

The mad sand had the effect of weakening divine sense. The golden-robed old man was trapped in it and immediately lost track of Zhang Yuanjing and Fire Crow Taoist.

At this time, Ape Thirteen and the Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast took positions on both sides, forming a siege against this person to prevent him from escaping.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuanjing guided the Thick Earth Spell Sword, and the mad sand dissipated, revealing the somewhat embarrassed golden-robed old man. This person was only in the early Core Formation stage, and he had exhausted a lot of energy to defend himself in the mad sand.

As soon as the mad sand disappeared, Ape Thirteen rushed forward with a stick. This person relied on the Water Escape Technique to shift sideways. However, Fire Crow Taoist's True Fire of Ten Thousand Beasts enveloped him, and there was no way to avoid it. He had to raise the water shield again and try his best to resist.

At this time, Zhang Yuanjing sacrificed the Armor-Piercing Axe and slashed directly at his head.

This person released a piece of black jade, which turned into a square shield, blocking the Armor-Piercing Axe. Then, he patted a mid-grade Water-Walking Talisman on his chest, and the water armor on his body suddenly doubled in thickness.

Ape Thirteen lifted the long stick and struck again, smashing the water armor on his body into disarray.

The man was startled, and a faint light flashed around him. The magic power flowed all over his body, and soon condensed a dark blue armor, which was much stronger than the previous water armor.

Fire Crow Taoist pointed a magic formula at the Mysterious Iron Gourd, and urged out another ball of the True Fire of Ten Thousand Beasts, pressing it around this person's body. The dark blue armor immediately began to boil, the sound of water sizzling, and white mist filled the air.

This person had to pour all his magic power into it, and soon his magic power was exhausted.

Ape Thirteen swung a stick, easily splitting the dark blue armor and smashing him hard to the ground. This person immediately lost his aura.

Zhang Yuanjing peeled off the two light blue rings from the man's fingers, and also took off his storage bracelet, erased the magic power imprint, and probed into it with his divine sense.

There were many things in this person's storage bracelet, but most of them were at the Foundation Establishment level. There was also a low-grade attack magic weapon, but its power was not strong. It was not as useful as those two rings in a fight.

Only a two-inch small package engraved with a peculiar restriction made him happy, because it contained extremely pure Meteoric Dust.
