Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Thunder split stone, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, and Zhang Yuanjing felt the tremor even seven hundred zhang deep underground.

“Master, the Six Yang Mirror has been shattered!” Zhang San said.

“Shattered?” Zhang Yuanjing was stunned. “All of it?”

Zhang San said, “All of it.” Then it exclaimed, “A strong spiritual aura flew out of the stone, and those two Nascent Soul cultivators went to chase it. Also, also a mass of spiritual energy escaped northward through the earth!”

Zhang Yuanjing made a decisive decision: “You guide the way, we will chase after this spiritual energy that can tunnel through the earth.”

He tunneled northwards, quickly ascending from the deep earth to a hundred zhang, his speed rapidly increasing.

Before long, Zhang San said, “Master, that mass of spiritual energy is accelerating; it must have noticed we are chasing it.”

“What exactly is it? Is it a living thing, or just a mass of spiritual energy?” Zhang Yuanjing unleashed his Earth Dividing Skill, and his tunneling speed increased again.

“Master, Zhang San can’t quite explain it, but it feels like its spiritual aura is extremely hot, like an extremely pure ball of flames, feeling somewhat scalding even from a distance.” Zhang San said strangely.

“What level is it at?” Zhang Yuanjing asked again. Something that could be targeted by two Nascent Soul Completion cultivators must be of a high level, but it was not what he needed.

“Very high, even if it hasn't surpassed the Nascent Soul level, it has reached the limit of this realm.” Zhang San said.

Zhang Yuanjing sighed upon hearing this, and did not speak, but he did not stop chasing. Even if he couldn't use it, now that the opportunity had appeared, he couldn't let it slip away, right?

After a quarter of an hour, that mass of spiritual energy suddenly rose, broke out of the ground, and flew close to the deep grass, speeding towards the northwest.

Zhang Yuanjing chased for several miles, and found that he was getting further and further away. After hesitating for a moment, he also rushed out of the ground, and flew away on his sword light. He tried his best, but could only keep up with that ball of light, and the distance of more than ten miles could never be reduced.

In this chase and escape, they quickly flew thousands of miles. Suddenly, from the mountains, horned, horse-like demon beasts leaped out, stepping on clouds and mist, and pounced towards the ball of light from the front.

The ball of light only dropped slightly, and passed under the belly of this Pegasus beast. Without any apparent action, one foot of the Pegasus beast suddenly burst open, and it fell down with a painful roar.

However, from then on, more and more demon beasts in the mountains came to seize this ball of light. Apart from a small number of Spirit Awakening Realm demon birds, the rest were all Core Formation Realm demon beasts. Some intercepted in front, some chased wildly from behind, some detoured from the side, and some set their sights on Zhang Yuanjing, launching surprise attacks on him from time to time.

Zhang Yuanjing was worried about losing track of the ball of light, so whenever a demon beast attacked, he used all his means to kill or drive it away in the shortest possible time. This also served as a deterrent, and later on, there were few demon beasts that dared to attack him.

It was impossible to tell what the ball of light was, but it had extremely high intelligence and considerable strength. Even when faced with a siege by a flock of demon birds, it could dodge and maneuver, and break through. Not only that, but it also messed up the birds' formation, even causing them to kill each other, which blocked the pursuers behind.

After tens of thousands of miles, the momentum in the sky became even greater, with as many as hundreds of thousands of demon beasts chasing after the ball of light, which was a spectacular sight.

Such a scene also attracted transformed great demons. A snow leopard flew into the sky, its white fur like clouds, crossing the sky like a shuttle, passing countless demon beasts below the Core Formation Realm, and landed towards the ball of light.

The ball of light suddenly turned and went due north. Moreover, its speed actually increased again, and even the transformed great demon could not catch up for a while.

Before long, this ball of light disappeared from Zhang Yuanjing's divine sense. Fortunately, Zhang San had not yet lost its aura, so it had not been lost.

After traveling another thousand miles, the ball of light began to descend, and a swamp covered with long grass appeared below, surrounded by high mountains and cliffs. The ball of light hid in the long grass and disappeared.

The snow leopard great demon landed on a cliff on one side, staring at the swamp, silent. The other demon beasts that arrived either stopped on the mountain peaks like the snow leopard, to observe first, but more of them swarmed into the swamp.

For a time, the swamp, which was only ten miles in radius, was crowded with tens of thousands of demon beasts. Most of these demon beasts were in the Spirit Awakening Realm, and there were also hundreds in the Core Formation Realm. They walked through the swamp, stepping on the water plants, searching everywhere. From time to time, demon beasts would dive into the water, and some demon beasts even pulled out the water plants, but they never found the ball of golden light.

The snow leopard great demon squatted on the rock, its two jet-black eyes staring at the pulled-out water plants, seemingly puzzled.

Zhang Yuanjing did not dare to approach the swamp, but landed on a high mountain thirty miles away. His divine sense was enough to cover the swamp, but he could not find the ball of light at all, and even the Yang Refining Umbrella had lost its sense of its spiritual aura.

After half a quarter of an hour, the wind began to rise in the swamp, and the water plants floated with the wind, sometimes entangled on the demon beasts. These demon beasts were all strong and powerful, and could break the water plants without much effort, but they did not notice that these water plants would leave a shallow cyan mark when they lashed across their bodies.

Over time, some demon beasts looked as if they were covered in cyan stripes, and their auras became chaotic.

The snow leopard great demon suddenly stood up and roared at the swamp below, its voice like a sob, very difficult to escape, but extremely penetrating. In an instant, almost all the demon beasts in the swamp trembled, some realized the danger and wanted to control their Qi to rise into the air, but their Qi could not be condensed. Some were originally flying birds and wanted to flap their wings and fly high, but their wings were soft and weak, and they could not even lift them.

At this time, countless cyan branches stretched out from the water, binding thousands of demon beasts like ropes. Some demon beasts could still struggle, while others could only wail and were dragged under the water.

The many demon beasts watching on the hillside and cliffs all showed shocked expressions, because they had no idea where the enemy was. The water in the swamp was only a hundred zhang deep, and there were no living things except for the many water plants.

Looking closely at the water plants, they were not growing from the mud at the bottom of the water, but were extending from somewhere in the water. After binding the demon beasts, they dragged them into the water, but only to a depth of ten or twenty zhang, allowing them to float up and down.

However, after only a dozen breaths, these demon beasts began to bleed profusely, and wounds appeared on their bodies, as if they had been cut by knives and swords. The demon beasts struggled desperately, but to no avail. Apart from making the blood flow faster, they could not break free from the shackles of the cyan branches.

Extremely strangely, when the blood seeped into the water, it condensed into clumps and fell down, without a trace of diffusion, and without floating upwards. Therefore, from above, the swamp, apart from being a little chaotic due to the trampling of many demon beasts, was not unusual.

Of course, the situation under the water could not be hidden from the demon beasts above the Core Formation Realm. There were as many as three or four hundred of them. At this time, looking at the silent swamp, they were all trembling, and had the intention of retreating.

The snow leopard scanned the surroundings of the swamp, and suddenly pointed to the southwest corner and said, “The water in this swamp is a bit strange, let’s go to that place, open a gap, and let the water out.”
