Though the Imperishable Temple was called a temple, in reality, it was a small world. It was just that most of the treasures were hidden inside the grand hall. Therefore, very few cultivators would go out and admire the beautiful scenery.
One has to admit that this place was truly picturesque. It was as beautiful as the legendary Peng Lai Heavenly Land.
Sadly, cultivators were here to get treasures. Normally, they wouldn't leave the grand hall and wander around this picturesque scenery.
However, this time, an accident occurred.
Because of Ling Xian's profound array skills, he directly shattered half of the arrays and caused the rest of the rooms to disappear. Because of this, the treasures inside the grand hall automatically hid themselves and were unobtainable.
Plus, the three most valuable pages of the Divine Book of Genesis had been taken by Ling Xian. Therefore, the remaining spiritual beings naturally gained nothing. Therefore, the spiritual beings all walked out of the grand hall. As they admired the beautiful scenery, they hoped to find some treasures.
After all, there were treasures everywhere inside the Imperishable Temple. Even outside the grand hall, many treasures were hidden. As for whether or not one could find them, it all depended on one's luck and eyesight.
Wang Yang and Lin Ying were quite lucky.
These two Heaven's Favorites from the Wan Jian House knew that their capabilities were weak and there was no way they could compete with Ling Xian for the pages of the Divine Book of Genesis. Therefore, they didn't make a move. Instead, they waited until the lock on the grand hall was lifted and left.
After three long months of wandering, the two of them arrived before a mountain that was hundreds of meters tall. Finally, they found a treasure.
The mountain peak was grand and majestic. It was hundreds of meters tall and resembled a heavenly sword that pierced through the clouds. Halfway up the mountain, there was a giant stone monument stuck in the ground.
Yes, it was stuck in the ground, not standing up.
This monument was entirely black. Other than a few red carvings, there were no other words.
The moment they saw this monument, Wang Yang and Lin Ying felt a soul-sucking power. It was as if under this mysterious power, their souls were about to leave their bodies.
Plus, this monument had a strange shape. Naturally, the two of them thought this monument was a treasure.
"Xiao Yang, what do you think this monument is? Why do I feel so dizzy? "Lin Ying furrowed her brows and suppressed her dizziness.
Wang Yang smiled, "I don't know either. But it must be a treasure. Or else our souls wouldn't be affected."
As he spoke, he shook his head forcefully, as if trying to clear his head.
It was obvious that this mysterious force was extremely dominating. Even completion leveled Heaven's Favorites like them were affected.
"That's true. We are Heaven's Favorites of the completion level after all. We won't be so weak." Lin Ying nodded. The dizziness intensified, making her feel dizzy as if she had lost her mind.
Luckily, she was the Heaven's Favorite of the Wan Jian House. No matter how weak she was, she wasn't completely helpless. Therefore, she held her breath, formed a hand seal, and shouted, "Suppress!"
As soon as she finished speaking, three illusory swords appeared and surrounded her and Wang Yang.
This was the technique of the Wan Jian House, the Three Swords Soul Suppression!
This technique uses swords as a medium, but it wasn't meant to be used against enemies. It was created to counter the strange techniques of the Taoism community. Just like the name suggests, this technique can suppress one's soul and not be affected by techniques that affect one's soul.
Therefore, when the three silhouettes of swords appeared, the strange force disappeared and could no longer affect the two of them.
Seeing this, Lin Ying revealed a proud expression, "How can a mere cultivator be an opponent of my Three Soul Calming Swords?"
"Yes, yes, Xiao Ying is the best." Wang Yang grinned.
Lin Ying rolled her eyes at him, "You big guy, who allowed you to call me Xiao Ying?"
"Didn't you tell me to?" Wang Yang had a suspicious look on his face. He thought to himself, "Two months ago, you told me to call you that. Why are you questioning me now?"
How could he know that Lin Ying was purposely teasing him?
"You idiot."
Lin Ying rolled her eyes at Wang Yang. Seeing how confused he was, she couldn't help but to giggle, "Idiot, I am joking with you."
"Hehe, I am just being stupid." Wang Yang scratched his head. Looking at the woman's flower-like smile, he continued to giggle.
At this, Lin Ying's face turned red and she pouted, "Idiot, stop looking. Let's go up and see what's so special about this monument."
"Hehe, okay."
Smiling innocently, Wang Yang and Lin Ying flew to the mountainside and landed in front of the stele.
The closer they were to the monument, the more they realized how strange it was. The few red carvings were bright red like fresh blood, giving off a mysterious and eerie vibe.
Instantly, Lin Ying and Wang Yang uncontrollably shuddered. As if they had fallen into an icy hell, their entire bodies shivered.
At the same time, the mysterious force grew stronger and stronger, directly targeting the two's Divine Souls and launching a fatal attack.
Luckily, Lin Ying used the Three Swords Soul Suppression and quickly reinforced it. Otherwise, their souls wouldn't be shattered by the strange force.
Despite this, the two of them broke out in a cold sweat.
"What an eerie monument. Just what is it? How can it be so magical?" Lin Ying's eyes were full of awe and she no longer underestimated it.
Wang Yang frowned as well. He had a bad feeling about this and decided to convince Lin Ying to leave this place.
However, just as he was about to speak, he noticed Lin Ying's eyes brightening with curiosity. This made his expression change and he said in a hurry, "Xiao Ying, this monument is far too eerie. Let's leave first."
"That won't do. After three months of searching, we only found something that looks like a treasure. How can we leave empty-handed?"
Lin Ying shook her head, "I know you mean well. But we are supposed to go against the natural order. How can we stop moving forward because of fear? Though this monument is eerie, it also proves that it is not an ordinary object. "
"That's true. But I am afraid that this monument will hurt you." Wang Yang frowned, a little unwilling.
"It's okay. Since the Three Soul Calming Swords can stop this monument, then it can stop it." Lin Ying brandished her hand, her face was full of confidence.
Seeing this, Wang Yang sighed and stepped forward one step, "Since you have made up your mind, then let me take this monument."
Then, he manipulated his Golden Dan and wrapped his arms around the monument in an attempt to pull it out.
HOMMM!
An infinite amount of heavenly light shot through the cloud. Wang Yang, with the power to move a mountain, slowly pulled the black monument out of the mountain.
However, this monument seemed to have grown out of the mountain. Even though he had the power to move a mountain, he could only move it bit by bit. It was extremely difficult.
After a long while, he finally managed to pull the monument out. However, just as he sighed in relief, a cold snicker suddenly arose, making both him and Lin Ying's hair stand on end.
"Since you have worked so hard to pull this out, then I will gladly accept it."
As soon as the voice trailed off, the giant body of the nine-headed lion appeared. Its nine heads were ferocious and terrifying, sending chills down everyone's spine.
"Nine-headed spiritual lion?"
Lin Ying and Wang Yang's expression changed drastically. They subconsciously stepped back a few steps.
They knew very well how terrifying the nine-headed spiritual lion was and they also knew that there was no way they could win. Therefore, the two of them were a little fearful.
"Hehe, two ant-like humans. Since I am not in a good mood, I will use you two to vent."
The nine-headed spiritual lion stared at the two humans before him and remembered the terrifying human who humiliated him. He couldn't help but feel angry and killer's intent.
"Not good!"
Sensing the killer's intent, Wang Yang and Lin Ying's heart dropped. They knew that the nine-headed spiritual lion was not planning on letting them go. Therefore, they didn't hesitate and immediately made their moves in an attempt to leave this place.
"You want to leave?"
The nine-headed lion coldly snickered. Waves of energy exploded from its body and locked down the space before them, forcing the two to turn around.
Wang Yang and Lin Ying's expression was serious. They knew that their lives were hanging by a thread. If they cannot stop this attack, they will die for sure.
Therefore, they used their strongest techniques in an attempt to stop the nine-headed lion's attack.
However, the nine-headed lion was one of the strongest Heaven's Favorites of the younger generation in Yunzhou. Its capabilities were terrifying. Lin Ying and Wang Yang were merely normal Heaven's Favorites. How could they stop its attack?
HOMMMM!
After an earth shattering rumble, dust filled the air.
Amidst the dust, two silhouettes were flung out. Fresh blood dyed the air red.
It was Lin Ying and Wang Yang.
What could they do? The nine-headed lion was far too terrifying. Therefore, after one attack, the two of them were flung out.
"Hehe, two completion levelled ants of the beginning stage dare to attack me? You sure don't know what's good for you. " The nine-headed lion snickered. Remembering the undefeatable human, the anger in its heart heated up.
"Ehem, ehem, it is the nine-headed spiritual lion after all. It sure is powerful."
Wang Yang coughed up a large mouthful of blood. A hint of sorrow flashed across his resolute face, and a hint of despair emerged in his heart.
Lin Ying reacted the same way. Her eyes were full of hopelessness.
"Two ants. You deserve to die just like that human." The nine-headed lion spoke coldly. Like a God above everyone else, it peered down at them.
At this moment, its hatred towards Ling Xian flooded its heart. It decided to kill the two people before it.
"Are we going to die?"
Wang Yang and Lin Ying's faces were full of hopelessness. They both revealed a bitter smile.
Sadly, this bitter smile did not evoke any sympathy from the nine-headed spiritual lion. Instead, it made it even more excited.
"Two ants, die. Don't blame me on the road to hell. If you want to blame someone, blame that bastard Ling Xian." The nine-headed lion's expression was ferocious as it snickered, "Don't worry. Once I master the technique, I will kill Ling Xian and make him accompany you in hell."
Then, its nine heads began to emit an infinite amount of heavenly light. Like the Sun in the sky, it was incomparably bright. Then, a million meters of gold light appeared out of nowhere. Like a sword that could split open the sky, it howled!
At once, the space cracked and the heaven and earth turned miserable!
Wang Yang and Lin Ying closed their eyes in desperation. They knew very well that with their capabilities, there was no way they could defend against this attack. Therefore, they gave up and fell into despair.
Just at this critical moment, an angry statement descended along with an unparalleled amount of energy that shook the heaven and earth!
"I taught you a lesson last time. I cannot believe you are still so reckless. Since that's the case, then let me end you today. "
