Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record
#708 - Chapter 707 Deep Gorge
The Savage Mountain range has eight peaks, one high and seven low, each with a distinct shape. The last time Zhang Yuanjing was here, he didn't pay attention to the formation of the eight peaks, but this time, looking at them from a distance, he felt there was something mysterious about them. The arrangement of one main peak and seven auxiliary peaks seemed to subtly correspond to some kind of array principle.
Back then, they entered from a mountain in the south and, chased by the Transforming Savages, directly ascended the main peak without exploring the other six peaks. Now it seemed that since the seven peaks were auxiliary, perhaps each of them contained a stone chamber.
Gradually approaching a mountain peak in the south, it was the very one they had entered last time, with the broken skeleton still there.
Yu Hanyan didn't explicitly say that the skeleton she had discovered was on this mountain, but from her constant adjustments in direction, ultimately leading him to this mountain, it was clear that what she sought was within this mountain.
At this time, the battle in the sky was even more intense. The two Nascent Soul cultivators were shrouded in magical power, their faces and figures blurry, each wielding spiritual treasures, colliding with each other, the sound shaking the mountains and fields.
The battleground of the two Nascent Soul cultivators was on the mountainside of the main peak, more than a hundred miles away from the surrounding peaks, so Zhang Yuanjing and Yu Hanyan were not worried about being discovered.
Just as Zhang Yuanjing was about to ask a question, Yu Hanyan suddenly said, "Senior Brother, please stop. A Nascent Soul cultivator is approaching from a hundred miles away."
She gestured to go east, traveling swiftly for hundreds of miles until they reached the foot of another mountain, where they stopped.
"Senior Brother, there are many cultivators in the mountain. This mountain currently only has Core Formation cultivators. Shall we go inside and take a look?" Yu Hanyan asked.
"Could what Junior Sister seeks be in this mountain?" Zhang Yuanjing asked casually.
"Perhaps there is also something in this mountain," Yu Hanyan said somewhat vaguely.
Zhang Yuanjing said in surprise, "Why 'perhaps'? Can't Junior Sister's spiritual treasure be certain?"
Yu Hanyan pondered for a moment, then said, "There are stone houses in several mountains, but only one resonated with my spiritual treasure and the strange bone. Although I can detect spiritual fluctuations in the other places, I don't know what they are."
Zhang Yuanjing secretly thought: As expected! This Yu Hanyan has already discovered that the arrangement of the eight peaks here subtly conforms to the principles of an array, which is why she went to investigate the situation of the other peaks. Of course, she also has this advantage, with that spiritual treasure concealing her aura, so she doesn't have to worry about being detected by the many Demon Core Realm savages.
"Since there are only Core Formation cultivators, it is worth going," Zhang Yuanjing paused slightly, "However, it is best not to start a conflict, lest we be noticed by other Nascent Soul cultivators."
At this time, the battle in the sky suddenly stopped. Because the Nascent Soul cultivator that Yu Hanyan had just discovered had already appeared on the main peak.
The three Nascent Souls were all shielded by magical power, their faces unclear, each occupying a side, perhaps talking about something.
Zhang Yuanjing and Yu Hanyan quietly entered the mountain, using the dense forest for cover, and climbed up the mountain. After traveling thirty or forty miles, she suddenly stopped, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Junior Sister, what's the situation?" Zhang Yuanjing knew that her spiritual treasure was particularly effective at warning of danger, so he thought she had discovered some danger and quickly stopped.
"It's that person!" Yu Hanyan was a little unhappy, but not angry, "The cultivator who led the giant turtle to attack me!"
"Oh, this is really an enemy encounter!" Zhang Yuanjing smiled, "Does Junior Sister want to teach him a lesson and let him know how powerful you are?"
Yu Hanyan shook her head: "Let's ignore him for now. Senior Brother and I are here to find the remnant bone, so let's put the rest aside for now."
Zhang Yuanjing nodded. The person Yu Hanyan was talking about was probably the young man surnamed Kuai from Burning Sun Mountain. He didn't want to encounter this person either, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
So, the two changed their direction again and headed towards a mountain on the east side.
It is unknown how many years these stone houses in Savage Mountain have existed. In the past, some cultivators must have discovered them, but it is unknown for what reason they have remained to this day, and hardly anyone has ever mentioned them.
Logically speaking, the strength of the Transforming Savages in the mountain is not that strong. Just one Nascent Soul中期 cultivator could drive them away and calmly explore the stone houses, so they wouldn't have kept the secret for so many years.
Although the water in the lake is full of destructive power, it is not impossible to resist. Even a third-order source stone can withstand it, so don't Nascent Soul cultivators have ways to deal with it?
Zhang Yuanjing pondered all the way, and unknowingly entered the mountain on the east side.
This mountain was vast and gentle, with dense forests and many rocks, but no savage demons were seen. It was estimated that there had been so many cultivators passing through this place recently that the savages had been forced to hide elsewhere.
Zhang Yuanjing and Yu Hanyan climbed to the mountainside, and a huge canyon appeared before them. Its opening was very large, falling all the way down the slope, becoming narrower as it went down, and its bottom even plunged into the ground.
The canyon was overgrown with many small plants, with poisonous insects appearing, but no powerful demons.
Before the two entered, they felt a bone-chilling chill rushing up from the bottom of the canyon, cutting on their bodies like a knife.
"What a strong ice-attribute sword intent!" Yu Hanyan's eyes moved, both surprised and delighted.
"Is it sword intent?" Zhang Yuanjing was stunned. He was not a sword cultivator and was not sensitive to sword intent.
"Yes!" Yu Hanyan said firmly, "My master is considered half a sword cultivator, and I have identified many kinds of sword intent since I was a child, so I will never be mistaken."
"Are there other cultivators in the canyon?"
"Not yet. In this kind of environment, unless they have an important discovery, ordinary cultivators will not stay long," Yu Hanyan shook her head and said.
"Then let's go down and take a look," Zhang Yuanjing said casually.
Yu Hanyan said, "This is ice-attribute sword intent. Hanyan can go and investigate myself. Senior Brother doesn't need to suffer with me. If I find anything, I will ask Senior Brother to come down and help."
Zhang Yuanjing smiled and said, "It's okay. I have thick skin and flesh, and a little sword intent is nothing to me."
So, the two jumped into the canyon and went down the road. Yu Hanyan insisted on going ahead, and Zhang Yuanjing did not force her, silently following behind.
After traveling for twenty miles, the canyon narrowed, and the cliffs on both sides squeezed in, leaving only a three- or two-zhang-wide gap, leaking a few rays of sunlight to the bottom of the valley, and the surrounding area was dark.
The cold and piercing sword energy became stronger and stronger, and only a few kinds of short and thick blocky plants remained in the valley, their skins dark, each with bulging, thick bumps.
On the walls on both sides, the sword energy had cut out cracks, some as deep as ten feet, which had obviously formed over countless years.
Yu Hanyan had already activated the sect's profound technique, her body shrouded in a group of light blue aura, which looked soft but was actually extremely cold, a very pure ice-attribute technique. The sword energy shot from the lower part of the canyon would be attracted by this light blue aura and absorbed once it approached her side by a zhang.
This seemingly weak and beautiful female cultivator would turn paler with each absorption of a few strands of sword energy, indicating that refining this thing was also a great burden for her.
Zhang Yuanjing, behind her, initially didn't feel the sword energy coming, but only felt a little strange. Later, he realized that it had been actively absorbed by her using her technique, so he said, "Junior Sister Yu, I have my own body refining method, and this sword energy is not enough to hurt me. You can let the sword energy come over."
Yu Hanyan initially refused, but after seeing him insist, she tried to let a few strands of sword energy over and found that he could indeed bear it easily, so she no longer blocked all the sword energy.
After traveling another thirty miles, the sword energy became more and more fierce, and Yu Hanyan could hardly hold on, and her steps became difficult for a while. Zhang Yuanjing then activated the Sky-Supporting Art, walked in front of her, and shielded her from the sword energy.
