After Zhang Yan dealt with Jiang Ao and the other two, he set off again. There were no more monsters on the way, and not long after, he arrived in front of a strange scene.
A crack appeared on the ground, as deep as an abyss, and a stream of turbid black Earth Qi gushed out from it. When it reached the top of the sky, it produced a whirlpool of Qi, which spiraled and rotated. At this moment, the Qi had turned from clear to white, and it looked crystal clear.
This was where the chaotic vortex was. There were two gates of Yin and Yang here, and one could go up or down.
However, the path was different, and the destination was naturally different. There was no record on the map of where the Mi River Sect cultivators had gone, so he could only rely on his own judgment.
However, this was not a problem for him. After gathering a wisp of Qi, he circulated his technique for a moment and looked around. In an instant, countless fragmented scenes flashed before his eyes.
These were the afterimages left behind by all the cultivators who had come here in the past thousands of years. However, this did not include the great cultivators who had cut off the past and the future. He could not see the experiences of such people. As for those who had come earlier, there was no need to look. This was because the further he went, the more magic power he had to use, and the more difficult it was to see clearly.
After looking around for several days, he finally found the cultivators of the Milky Lake Sect. There were more than a thousand of them in the group. Ying Tao had once said that there were three other major sects that had traveled together with the Mi River Sect. They should be these people, and in the end, they all headed toward the Clear Qi Vortex.
Since he had found the direction, he did not stay here for long. He immediately activated the Sky-Scraping Spirit Boat to fly up and smoothly entered the chaotic vortex. At that moment, he had a feeling that he was not completely in Qinghua Heaven, and the restriction of Karma points on him was not as great as before. However, this also meant that the monsters here were also less restrained.
The darkness in front of him turned into light, and in the end, a vast sky was revealed. Wisps of white Qi vortexes filled the surroundings, and each of them contained great power. At every moment, thousands of them bombarded the Sky-Scraping Spirit Boat, causing it to tremble slightly. If the cultivators here didn't have a magic tool to protect their flight, it would be difficult for them to stay here for a long time.
Zhang Yan glanced at it. Based on the current situation, it would seem that the Skyscraper Boat was capable of holding on by itself. Of course, the precondition was that no mishaps occurred. He'd done his homework before coming here, and he knew that there were many formidable greater demons here. Thus, he didn't let down his guard and flicked his sleeve, causing a five colored radiance to sweep out and envelop the entire boat.
He did some calculations and found that this place was just as the map had described. There was an invisible force that prevented cultivators from escaping into the Small World. There was also no way to tell the direction here. The four directions were almost the same, so he could only rely on constantly looking around to find the right way.
It was just that the consumption of magic power was beyond imagination. Fortunately, he was here. If it was someone else, they would probably have to stop taking external medicine and adjust their breathing to cultivate.
It was no wonder that the people who came here to search for reinforcements had never succeeded. Firstly, the Milky Lake Sect didn't have many good friends, so they would all travel with them. Those who were estranged would naturally not be attentive. Secondly, this place was simply too dangerous. Perhaps some people would retreat after encountering some losses. Naturally, there wouldn't be any results.
Unless there was a mighty figure who was powerful enough to step forward. Xuan Hongtian's status and title were enough, but he didn't bother with this matter. Since even the "orthodox" disciples of the Milky Lake Sect didn't care about the life and death of the Milky Lake Sect, the others naturally wouldn't interfere.
At this moment, Ren Ji stood in the cabin and looked at the strange scene outside. He couldn't help but marvel at the Weili where the whirlpools were flowing wildly. He could sense that if he appeared there, he would probably be swept away into nothingness in an instant. Even his soul would be destroyed.
He also knew that Zhang Yan had come to search for the whereabouts of the cultivators of the Milky Lake Sect, which meant that these people might still be alive. He was also amazed. To be able to survive in a place like this and stay for as long as a thousand years, it wasn't just a matter of magic power. The key was also one's temperament and willpower.
He thought that even if he had a shocking cultivation, he might not be able to persist for such a long time.
At this moment, the entire boat suddenly shook violently. He immediately looked in a certain direction and saw a transparent thing that looked like a bat or a fish was ramming into the Sky-Scraping Spirit Boat. Its body was also extremely huge, almost the same size as the Spirit Boat.
He heard Zhang Yan's clear voice say, "All of you, stay in your positions on the boat and don't move recklessly." Then, he saw the five-colored brilliance spread out, illuminating the sky and earth. After a few breaths, the brilliance disappeared, and the monster was nowhere to be seen.
However, this was only the beginning. Every once in a while, some fearless monsters would come to the boat. There were all kinds of monsters, and most of them were the strange fish that he saw first. Sometimes, they even appeared in groups. However, these monsters didn't cause any obstruction to the Spirit Boat. Once the five-colored brilliance was released, they would all be melted and disintegrated.
Zhang Yan continued to move deeper into the Drifting Space, killing all the monsters he encountered along the way. Soon, two months had passed. On this day, he suddenly felt his body lighten. He silently checked and found that the restriction on his Karma points had been completely removed. From now on, he could use all of his supernatural powers and Taoist techniques without any hindrance. This should be the limit of the Karma points he had obtained from killing the monsters and demons these days.
From the looks of it, the Drifting Space was actually a convenient place to obtain Karma points. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could deal with the various dangers here.
A few days later, he suddenly sensed something. He saw a majestic floating mountain far away in front of him. He didn't know what it was made of, but it was crystal white. Even under the whirlpool, it was only moving slowly. In the belly of the mountain, he could see a slightly broken Spirit Boat.
He instructed his subordinates before he flew out and arrived at the top of the crystalline white mountain. He carefully examined it for a moment. This object was also an extraordinary treasure that could isolate one's aura. If he stood outside, he wouldn't be able to sense the situation inside.
He reached out and pressed his hand on it. After a while, the mountain melted like ice, revealing a gap. He flew in with his Qi and soon came to the Spirit Boat. Entering through the gap, he found that there were many large temples here. However, after walking around, he found that the inside was empty. Everything that could be taken had been taken away.
He used his technique to examine it again. The scene was still broken, but based on the actions of the cultivators in the past, he could roughly restore the original situation.
The cultivators from the Milky Lake Sect had indeed been here before. However, unexpectedly, before they came here, the Spirit Boat Crystal Mountain had already existed.
Those people seemed to be cultivators who had successively fallen here. However, they were forced by the strange wind and the monsters outside and had no way of leaving. Hence, they were trapped in a group.
After the people from the Milky Lake Sect arrived, they were prepared to lead these people out. However, for some unknown reason, they attracted several extremely powerful monsters. These monsters led thousands of monsters to besiege this place. The two sides had been fighting each other for hundreds of years. Even after exhausting the spiritual opportunity here, they still couldn't win. They had no choice but to split up and break out.
These people here were divided into two groups. A few stayed behind to guard the rear while most of them broke out of the encirclement.
The light in Zhang Yan's eyes slowly faded. Probably because they left in a hurry, there was no divine will left here. However, at least the clues were not broken. He could be sure that at least hundreds of years ago, most of the people from the Milky Lake Sect who came here were still alive. Although they were besieged by the monsters, as long as their luck was not too bad, those powerful cultivators could still survive. This situation was much better than what he had imagined.
He looked around. The people who left did not take away the crystal mountain and the Spirit Boat. Perhaps they didn't have time to do it, or perhaps they wanted to make it convenient for their descendants to stay here. Hence, he did not touch these things. With a wave of his sleeve, he turned around and returned to the Spirit Boat. Then, he chased in the direction that the cultivators had retreated in.
He walked in the whirlpool space and did not know that in the outside world, the news of Jiang Ao's death was gradually spreading.
Not long after the two Green Jade Palace cultivators returned, the Green Jade Palace issued a clear edict, clearly explaining the cause and effect of this matter. It also said that because the matter had not been completed, Jiang Ao's tribute of Karma points would not be collected at all. If he had disciples, they would be allowed to take it.
After the matter spread, the cultivators of various realms were greatly amazed by Zhang Yan's battle record of fighting against three people alone. Even though the identity of the person who had joined forces with Jiang Ao and the two of them wasn't mentioned, anyone could discern that this person's background was definitely not simple. Zhang Yan was able to kill Ju Rong with a single punch, and this kind of strength caused others to be extremely terrified, so how could cultivators with cultivations below his level of cultivation dare to look for him?
Even so, the people of the Green Jade Palace did not even manage to force Zhang Yan to reveal his Karma points. In the end, they returned without accomplishing anything. With this kind of fighting ability, perhaps no one could defeat him except the Heaven Master of a realm.
In Xuanhong Heaven, after Priest Gong received the news, he sneered in his heart. He released his spirit and found Priest Bai. He said, "Immortal Bai, have you heard about Priest Zhang?"
Priest Bai replied, "I have. This person has passed the test time and time again. He should not be underestimated."
Priest Gong sneered, "The more he wins, the more people he offends. When the time comes, there will naturally be almighty people who will deal with him. Moreover, looking at this matter, I think it is that person who is behind this."
Priest Bai nodded and said, "After all, his son was killed, how can he be indifferent?" He paused for a while and said, "But what if the Heaven Master cannot take down this person?"
Priest Gong was stunned, then he sneered, "How is that possible? Even if this person has some ability, he is relying on the Ancestral Master's legacy. Moreover, if he really has such ability, why did he leave that day?"
Priest Bai reminded, "We still need to be careful. There are still a thousand years left. The divine item is related to the prosperity of Luo Mountain. There cannot be any unforeseen changes."
Priest Gong thought for a while and said, "Now that this person's matter involves too many people and there are many people with evil intentions, it is not convenient for me to intervene in case my family gets involved."
Priest Bai thought about it and felt that it made sense. He said, "Then let's wait a little longer."
Priest Gong said in a relaxed manner, "Why worry, Priest Bai. Xuanhong Heaven still has the Sect Master to protect us. We will not let this person cause any trouble."
