Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Zhang Xuan took the lead, plunging into the cave. The others followed behind, one after another. On the right side of the cave was a stone path less than five feet wide, and on the left was a narrow ditch, about three or four feet wide.

The group hurried forward along the narrow path on the right, with dark water gently flowing beneath their feet. The cave was very cold, but occasionally a gust of hot wind would blow, making their faces feel scorched.

After walking about two hundred yards, the cave suddenly turned downwards, like a cliff. Zhang Xuan reminded everyone, and they quickly used their magic to steady themselves, slowly descending.

After descending about a hundred feet, there was another cave, much smaller than the previous one, only about fifteen to twenty feet in diameter.

From here, the passage turned back again, proceeding for several dozen feet before spiraling downwards, sometimes a gentle slope, sometimes a steep slope, sometimes a large circle, sometimes a small circle. After winding around like this for about a thousand feet, it began to head east.

At this point, the narrow ditch had disappeared, and the black water had vanished without a trace. The path began to rise and fall, turn left and right, go forward and backward, in an extremely rugged and winding manner.

After about half an hour, a red and blue light faintly appeared ahead.

"The exit is ahead," Zhang Xuan shouted from the front, quickening his pace.

Everyone had been focused on hurrying along, and the road was narrow and difficult, so the atmosphere had been quite oppressive. Now that they heard the exit was ahead, their steps immediately became lighter.

Emerging from the cave, they found themselves in an underground cave shaped like an inverted funnel. Judging from the dark red rocks of the walls, it was clearly not man-made, but a masterpiece of nature's ingenuity.

The point where they emerged was the mouth of the funnel, at a higher elevation, but the space was very small, only about ten feet wide and three feet high.

From here, the terrain sloped downwards, and the space became larger. At the innermost part, it was more than a hundred and fifty feet high and wide, and the sound of flowing water could be clearly heard.

However, at the lowest point visible in the innermost part, a "veil" of half blue and half red, with a hazy, shimmering light in the middle, blocked everyone's probing gaze and cut off the divine sense that everyone extended.

"Master, is that Yin-Yang Fiend Energy?" Lan Kuisong stood beside Zhang Xuan, pointing to the two light clusters, one blue and one red, that blocked the bottom of the "funnel," and asked with a frown.

Without Zhang Xuan needing to say more, everyone felt a powerful pressure emanating from these two light clusters. The light cluster on the left was a ghostly blue, extremely cold, while the light cluster on the right was a flashing red, very hot.

Between the two light clusters was a crackling, silvery-white electrical force, causing all the cultivators to instinctively feel fear.

"That's right, it's these two light clusters. These are the densest two clusters of Fiend Energy, condensed over countless years."

Zhang Xuan said in a deep voice, "According to Lord Zhulong's memory, the Dharma Transmitter who was responsible for excavating this passage back then had people dig tunnels on both sides to bypass these two light clusters and go directly to the dark river below. But it was useless. Because the rock walls here are extremely hard, and cannot be opened by human power at all. Moreover, if too much force is used, it is likely to trigger an explosion of the two Fiend Energies, forming a destruction of everything."

Fire Crow Daoist said thoughtfully, "This place is nearly two million miles away from Xuan Yin Mountain. These Yin-Yang Fiend Energies have floated such a long distance and can still condense into such dense light clusters. It seems that the entire dark river above is covered by a layer of Fiend Energy."

Zhang Xuan said lightly, "It doesn't matter. This place should be a gathering place for Fiend Energy, so it is very dense. Once these two light clusters are cleared, there will be no worries for at least several thousand years."

Lan Kuisong suddenly clicked his tongue and said, "Master, if these Fiend Energies cannot be cleared, will they accumulate too much over time and explode on their own? How many years of accumulation is this? Tens of thousands of years, or hundreds of thousands of years? If the clearing is not done properly and an explosion is triggered, wouldn't, wouldn't the very foundation of our Divine Sect be shaken!"

As soon as this was said, it immediately caused the demon cultivators to discuss among themselves, and their faces showed concern.

The Fire Crow Daoist on the side laughed and said, "Right Divine Envoy, you are worrying unnecessarily. If it were really going to explode, it probably would have exploded long ago! Think about these Fiend Energies, floating from the bottom of Xuan Yin Mountain, two million miles away, along the dark river channel. Along the way, a lot of them must have been dissolved by the Three-Life Water. Otherwise, after tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation, there would not be only these two light clusters."

Zhang Xuan said, "What Fire Official said is correct. Yin-Yang Fiend Energy and Three-Life Water dissolve each other. The Fiend Energy that can reach this place is only a very small part of the Fiend Energy that floats out from the bottom of Xuan Yin Mountain. However, over time, Yin-Yang Fiend Energy will still accumulate a lot. Once the amount is too large, the two energies will clash and explode. This underground cave should have been formed by the explosion of Fiend Energy."

"According to Lord Zhulong's prediction, the Fiend Energy at this end of the dark river will explode every once in a while. The power generated is very great, but the rocks here are solid, so it will not cause too much movement, and it will not affect the ground above."

Lan Kuisong suddenly realized, "I see! Then there is nothing to worry about. Please instruct us, Master, on how to clear the Fiend Energy. We will definitely do our best, regardless of life or death!"

Fire Crow Daoist and Xing Guanghan had both come for opportunities, and when they heard this, they also showed a hint of excitement, looking at Zhang Xuan with anticipation.

Zhang Yuanjing thought that the two million miles of dark river from the bottom of Xuan Yin Mountain to below Candle Dragon Valley were all covered by Yin-Yang Fiend Energy. How much Fiend Energy would this require? How much Three-Life Water and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy would it need? When the Xuan Yin Mountain Spirit Cave was intact, it was only a large Spirit Cave. How could it withstand such damage? Perhaps, what really caused the Xuan Yin Mountain Spirit Cave to drop from a large Spirit Cave to a medium Spirit Cave was the Three-Life Water Dark River, not the Xuan Yin King Grass!

However, before the Xuan Yin King Grass appeared, the Xuan Yin Mountain Spirit Cave was indeed a genuine large Spirit Cave. What other mysteries are there? The Barren Death Zone, Xuan Yin Mountain, Thunder Prison Mountain Range, and You Tu Mountain are all quite strange places, but they are concentrated in this area. What is the reason? And Qian Jian Sect's plot, why has it always focused on Xuan Yin Mountain? For a time, his thoughts were like wild horses, and all kinds of ideas came to him...

"The method of clearing the Yin-Yang Fiend Energy is very simple. First, this Master will use Three-Life Water to extinguish the two light clusters. After these two light clusters are broken, the Fiend Energy behind will rush forward eagerly because of the open space in front. At this time, you need to quickly set up a formation according to my position. First, form the second style of the formation, with three three-ring buckles on each side, left and right, connected in a straight line, to resist the pressure of the Fiend Energy in place. Remember, this first wave of Fiend Energy tide will be very fierce, and everyone must do their best. As long as you withstand the first wave, the rest will be easier!" Zhang Xuan did not explain the clearing method in detail, only explained the key points, and then asked everyone to check their items and prepare.

Then, she said to Fire Crow Daoist and Xing Guanghan, who were standing aside, seemingly calm, but actually excited in their hearts, "Fire Official, Elder Xing, you also prepare yourselves. Seize the opportunity when it appears. I have no time to remind you!"

Fire Crow Daoist and Xing Guanghan quickly cupped their hands and saluted, "Thank you for the reminder, Master!"

Zhang Xuan nodded to Zhang Yuanjing on the side, without speaking, then turned to the group of demon cultivators and asked in a loud voice, "Everyone, are you ready?"
