"So, this is the Primal Lodestone Mountain!"
After the discussion, Wu Chen and Zhang Xuan bade farewell to Liu Yang before heading over to where Ancient Sage Hao Xun was. Fearing that Sovereign Chen Ling and the others would notice them, they dared not use their ability to tear space apart. However, they were not too far away from the capital, so it took them less than two hours to reach their destination.
Rather than a mountain, it would be more accurate to call it a deep abyss. It was so dark that one could not see the end of it, and it emanated a chilling aura.
"Let me give it a try!"
Wu Chen stepped forward and levitated above the abyss. Taking a deep breath, he said, "Ancient Sage Hao Xun, your old friend Chen Yong is here to pay you a visit!"
His voice condensed into a thin thread that extended into the depths of the abyss.
After shouting three times, dark clouds seemed to be churning at the bottom of the abyss. Following which, rays of five-colored light shot up from the depths of the abyss, reminiscent of an aurora.
As soon as these rays of light appeared, the duo immediately felt their flight becoming unstable. Their bodies swayed uncontrollably, and they lost control of their zhenqi, threatening to plummet from the sky at any moment.
"It's the power of magnetism!"
Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up in astonishment.
The power of magnetism was similar to that of magnets, but it had a destructive effect on a cultivator's zhenqi, making it impossible for them to control their zhenqi.
"Humph!"
Wu Chen's eyebrows shot up as he dropped his disguise and reverted back to his Otherworldly Demon form. Driving his pure Zhenqi of Slaughter, he finally managed to stabilize his body. However, he had not fully recovered from his injuries yet, so using his strength had left his face ghastly pale once more.
Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist, and the Infernal Blacksaber flew out. He placed it beneath his feet and stabilized his body.
The power of magnetism was capable of damaging one's zhenqi, but the Infernal Blacksaber was only a weapon. It did not possess any zhenqi, so it was unaffected.
The five-colored light below began to surge once more. Following which, a black-robed figure could be seen standing on top of the light, slowly rising into the air.
"Ancient Sage Hao Xun!"
Sovereign Chen Yong clasped his fist.
Zhang Xuan turned to look at the black-robed figure.
The black-robed young man before Zhang Xuan was dressed in a black robe. Only his eyes were crimson, giving him an eerie feeling. The aura that he exuded was incredibly powerful, such that it was hard to tell just how powerful he was. Nevertheless, it was apparent that he was slightly stronger than Ancient Sage Bo Yu.
In fact, he wasn't any weaker than Zhang Hongtian.
No wonder Wu Chen held him in such high regard. Even in the Blood Rebirth Realm, he could be considered an expert.
Hidden in the darkness, Ancient Sage Hao Xun replied impassively, "I have long stopped bothering with worldly affairs. Even if you come here personally, it's useless!"
Sovereign Chen Yong bowed deeply and said, "You've seen the current situation. Brother Bo Ji, I hope that you can lend me a hand!"
He was heavily injured, and his life force could be depleted at any moment. As long as one was a cultivator, they would be able to tell. There was no need to explain.
"Everyone will die, including His Majesty and the common people … I am satisfied that you can see me once before you die. If there is nothing else, please forgive me for not keeping you company!"
Ancient Sage Hao Xun replied with a cold look on his face. The five-colored light beneath his feet flickered incessantly, and it seemed like he was about to vanish into the darkness once more.
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to be so cold and emotionless, Sovereign Chen Yong exclaimed anxiously, "I was harmed by someone, and my life is hanging by a thread. All I ask of you is that I can kill my enemy with my bare hands!"
I need your help. Who the hell would come and see you before they die?
Our friendship isn't that deep yet …
"I don't care about power anymore, so I don't want to get involved with it …"
Shaking his head, Ancient Sage Hao Xun waved his hand, and the five-colored light shrouded the entire abyss. Then, he disappeared into the darkness.
"Please wait a moment!"
Just as Ancient Sage Hao Xuan was about to vanish completely, Zhang Xuan suddenly tapped his finger forward with a frown.
The five-colored light in the air was immediately pulled into his hand. The magnetic force that had made it difficult for him to drive his zhenqi suddenly changed direction and surged toward the black figure.
Huala!
Under the pressure of the magnetic force, Ancient Sage Hao Xun suddenly fell out of the darkness. It was as if the five-colored light in the surroundings was rejecting him.
"Who are you? How are you able to control the magnetic force?"
Ancient Sage Hao Xun frowned in disbelief.
In order to comprehend the magnetic force of the abyss, he had spent more than three thousand years, and it was only at this point that he was finally able to control the magnetic force and wield a might that even Ancient Sages of his caliber feared.
Yet, the young man before him was actually able to make the five-colored light reject him … How in the world did he do it?
"I'm not trying to control the magnetic force. What I'm trying to do is to find a flaw so that my zhenqi can fuse with the magnetic force and resonate with the magnetic force here!"
With a light chuckle, Zhang Xuan swiftly returned the Infernal Blacksaber to his storage ring. Meanwhile, he continued floating in midair, seemingly unaffected by the magnetic force in the surroundings.
His Heaven's Path zhenqi was able to transform even the Zhenqi of Slaughter of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe into magnetic force, so it was not too difficult for him to do so.
Earlier, when Ancient Sage Hao Xun used the Library of Heaven's Path, he had already verified that he was able to do so.
"Find a flaw? Fuse my zhenqi with the magnetic force? "
Ancient Sage Hao Xun frowned.
"That's right!"
Zhang Xuan nodded. Taking a deep breath, he raised both of his palms.
Huala!
Countless five-colored lights burst forth from the abyss, forming an aurora that shrouded Zhang Xuan, giving him the appearance of a multi-colored giant.
The Heaven's Path zhenqi was able to change the attribute of the magnetic force and resonate with it. In his view, the abyss was like a warm source of energy that allowed him to release strength beyond his cultivation.
"You are indeed able to control the magnetic force!"
Ancient Sage Hao Xun exclaimed in astonishment. Even his control over the magnetic force was inferior to that of the young man before him.
He had studied it for three thousand years, but he was still no match for the young man before him.
"If you can help Sovereign Chen Yong, I'll impart to you the method to control the magnetic force!"
Seeing that Ancient Sage Hao Xun was aware of his means, Zhang Xuan turned to him and said.
"This …" Ancient Sage Hao Xun hesitated.
He had spent three thousand years studying the magnetic force in the abyss. If he could really control the magnetic force as smoothly as the young man before him, he would not have had to go through so much trouble.
Furthermore, the reason he had comprehended the magnetic force was to find a path that was suitable for him to push for a breakthrough to a higher realm. If he could control the magnetic force as easily as the young man before him, his cultivation would surely soar by leaps and bounds, and he might even be able to surpass his current Blood Reincarnation realm cultivation!
"Who was the one who injured you?"
Ancient Sage Hao Xun was a little tempted, but he did not rush into making a decision. Instead, he turned to Sovereign Chen Yong and asked.
Even the number one expert of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe had been injured to such an extent. While he did not think that his opponent was weak, he knew that his opponent was not a pushover either.
If he did not have a chance at victory, he would not have put himself in danger just to obtain the magnetic force resonance technique.
"It was Sovereign Chen Ling and Sovereign Chen Xing! They colluded with the humans to launch a sneak attack on me! "Sovereign Chen Yong replied.
"It was them?"
Hearing that it was Sovereign Chen Yong and Sovereign Chen Yong, Ancient Sage Hao Xun's complexion turned livid. "I'm afraid that there's nothing I can do about this matter. I'll have to seek help from someone else!"
(There's only one day left!)
