Hu hu hu!
Along with his shout, Xuan Ye, Bai Zhanqing, and the others, who had just put on their clothes, couldn't hold themselves back any longer and flew toward the Acheron Commander once more. While they were still in midair, the spatial ripples tore their clothes apart, leaving them naked once more.
"Haha!"
He was not afraid. Instead, a mocking look appeared in Commander Nether River's eyes. "A group of Inherited Realm elites and a group of sect masters stripped off their clothes to fight against others. Not only are you not ashamed of it, you're even proud of it … We demons have never been so humiliated before!"
Amidst his mocking laughter, he floated into the air. The energy in his body rapidly expanded like a balloon. At the same time, his eyes turned blood-red. "I, Mingjiang, am willing to sacrifice my life as a sacrifice. I beseech General Jie Mo Luo to descend!"
Right after saying those words, more than half of Zhang Xuan's blood essence was drawn away. Countless unique demonic patterns appeared in the air, creeping upward along the river.
"He wants to use the river to summon …"
Knowing that everyone was confused, Fei Ting explained, "The Spirit Abyss is different from the Dry Origin Continent. The space in the Spirit Abyss isn't a single entity, and it isn't stable either. The passageways that allow the giant demons to pass through are created by the flow of the river. Because the Long River that leads to the Great Yan State only has a first-class Spiritual Vein at most, the passage that is washed out can only allow experts of Lv 7 of Inheritance Realm to enter. Any higher and the space will collapse easily! "
Everyone nodded.
There were two reasons why the Spirit Abyss Demons did not send their experts over. Firstly, it was to maintain the balance between the two parties. Secondly, it was indeed difficult for them to send their experts over. After all, the passageway was only so wide, and before an Eternal realm expert could cross it, the passageway would collapse. In the end, it was likely that not a single person would be able to cross it.
"Summoning through the river means that he can make use of the time when the river is raging to summon an even stronger expert. Even if space were to collapse at this moment, the river would still return to its original state … In other words, there's a 100% chance that his summoning will succeed!"
As he spoke, Commander Ming Jiang's blood essence had been completely burned away. His body shriveled up like a dried corpse. He looked at the naked crowd again and sneered, "General Jie Mo Luo will avenge me!"
After saying that, his eyes dimmed, and his corpse fell from the sky.
Bai Zhanqing and the others halted in their tracks.
The appearance of the long river caused the surrounding space to tremble violently. They used all of their strength but were still unable to approach it in a short period of time.
In the end, the sacrifice was successful!
Boom!
After the death of the Acheron Commander, an illusory figure slowly appeared at the end of the light formed by his blood essence. Following the line, it flew straight over.
"It's Jie Mo Luo!" Fei Ting's expression turned serious.
"Hall Master Fei knows of this person?" Bai Zhanqing looked over.
"He's one of the Eight Great Generals under the command of the Demon King Moorsa. He once confronted the Great Yong State Alliance. His strength has reached the second level of the Eternal Realm. He's an expert of the seventh level of the Inherited Realm whose strength is similar to mine. In the past few hundred years, he's killed at least thirty of them …" Fei Ting said.
The Great Yong Prefecture was one of the nine prefectures of the Dry Source Continent, ranked seventh.
Everyone was shocked.
On the surface, the strongest person in the Great Yan Prefecture was Fei Ting, who was at the Seventh Tier of Legacy. This Demon General had killed more than thirty people by himself … This meant that if he really showed up, the Eight Great Halls of the Alliance might not be able to stop him!
"Can we still stop it?" Elder Qi asked worriedly.
"It's too late. Ming Jiang was right. He wasn't the only one who summoned them. Many Giant Demons sacrificed themselves at the same time. Look over there …" Fei Ting shook his head.
Everyone looked over. Indeed, other than the thin line formed by the Netherworld River's bloodline connecting the phantom, there was also a line from the other side of the river. It was even thicker.
The illusory figure borrowed these two forces to travel along the river.
Su Yin took a closer look at the illusory figure.
It was a middle-aged man dressed in gray armor. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. With every step he took, cracks would appear in space. However, under the impact of the river, the cracks would return to normal in a short period of time, as if they had never appeared.
Even though the Lingyuan Long River could tear space apart, it could also repair space as it flowed. It was dangerous to travel along the river, but it was also easier for the illusory figure to travel along the river.
"We might still have a chance!"
Hall Master Xuanye thought of something, and his eyes turned grim. "He's currently above the river. As long as we can reach him and attack him together, we can think of a way to drive him into the depths of the river. Even if his main body came here, he would have a hard time surviving, let alone his clone!"
The Lingyuan Long River was extremely bizarre. Even Hall Master Fei Ting, who was at the Seventh Tier of Legacy, could only travel less than a hundred meters deep. Any deeper and he would be swept away by the river, causing him to lose his sense of direction and even die!
Over the years, there had been many experts in the Alliance who did not believe in such things. In the end, they could not even find their corpses after venturing into the depths of the river. Among them, there was no lack of cultivators at the Fourth or Fifth Tier of Legacy.
It was for this reason that even an Eternal realm expert might not be able to survive if he fell into the river.
In a one-on-one fight, they were indeed no match for the other party. Even if they could defeat the other party by working together, they would not be able to catch up to the other party. However … there was still a chance that they could drive the other party into the river.
"I know, but … the space is shaking so violently that it's impossible for us to get close to him," Fei Ting said with a bitter smile.
The crowd fell silent.
That was the truth.
The impact of the river was simply too great. Take the massive ship under them for example. Without an anchor to hold it in place, it would have capsized long ago. If they insisted on flying, they would have been reduced to dust before they could get too far.
As for not using a flying boat and flying on a sword instead … it would be even more unbearable!
"Unless …" Fei Ting shook his head in the end.
"Unless what?" Hall Master Xuanye asked.
"There's a pinnacle flying boat!" Fei Ting explained. "Even the weakest flying boat is comparable to an Eternal realm expert. As strong as the impact of the river is, it shouldn't affect it at all!"
"A pinnacle flying boat?" Xuan Ye asked helplessly.
Such a flying boat could only exist in the top prefectures like the Great Yan Prefecture and the Great Yuan Prefecture. There was no one in the Great Yan Prefecture who was capable of forging such a flying boat.
Even if their blacksmiths were capable of forging one, they would not be able to gather the required materials.
Most of the materials required to forge a pinnacle artifact were nourished by a transcendent-tier spirit vein.
"Actually …"
Just as everyone was feeling a little helpless, a trembling voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone turned around and saw that the one who had spoken was the head of the Celestial Dipper Sect, Sect Leader Xu Shaoqing. He was already injured in the first place, but at this moment, his injuries had worsened. His face had already turned from pale to pale. If not for the recovery medicine he had consumed beforehand, he might have already died.
Xu Shaoqing gritted his teeth and said, "Actually … Little Senior Uncle's flying boat isn't any weaker than a pinnacle flying boat …"
"Little Senior Uncle?" Fei Ting was taken aback as he turned to look at the young man before him.
"Me?" Su Yin did not expect the other party to be talking about him. He flicked his wrist, and his flying boat appeared before everyone's eyes. "Are you referring to this?"
"Yes …" Xu Shaoqing nodded.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the flying boat. "A wooden boat?"
They had thought that it was really a pinnacle Spirit artifact, but to think that it was just an ordinary wooden boat.
Even a high-tier Spirit artifact flying boat of the alliance was unable to withstand it, so a wooden boat should not even be able to withstand the slightest splash. Yet, you are telling me that it's comparable to a pinnacle Spirit artifact?
"Don't underestimate this boat. Little Senior Uncle used it to ram a Serpentine Greenscale Python to death …" Xu Shaoqing hurriedly explained.
Seeing their strange gazes, Xu Shaoqing hurriedly explained. It was because he had been underestimated that he ended up in such a state.
"Greenscale Python? If it succeeded in its Serpentine Transformation, it should have reached Heritage 7-dan! "Fei Ting narrowed his eyes.
"That's right!" Xu Shaoqing explained with a bitter smile. "Little Senior Uncle used this boat to ram it, but before it could even react, it was already dead …"
"This …"
Everyone turned to look at the young man once more.
Seeing the peculiar looks in their eyes, Su Yin could only nod his head and say, "I did kill a Serpentine Dragon in the past … Isn't the purpose of bringing the Netherworld Commander's Bone Dragon Spear over to study how to forge a weapon?"
After saying those words, he flicked his wrist, and a long Serpentine Dragon spine appeared before everyone's eyes, exuding an immense pressure.
Even though that fellow had died long ago, it had still succeeded in its Serpentine Transformation. Its existence was not to be underestimated.
"As expected …"
Everyone's lips twitched, and they fell silent.
That was true. Even the ink that Little Senior Uncle casually drew was able to stop the Netherworld Commander's Bone Dragon Spear. Even if his boat was made of wood, it might not be that simple.
In any case, it was a mistake to underestimate Zhang Xuan. Putting everything aside, that tortoise … Despite its slow-witted appearance, who would have thought that even with so many of them working together, they still wouldn't be a match for it?
"I don't know whether I can withstand it or not. Since he said so, I'll just have to give it a try …"
Knowing that it was pointless to say anything more, Su Yin couldn't be bothered to waste his breath. Instead, he drove his Zhen Yuan, and the flying boat shone brightly, reverting from its original size of several dozen centimeters to its original size.
The crowd quickly flew onto the boat. Fei Ting walked up to the inscriptions that controlled the formation, and he infused his Zhen Yuan into it.
Boom!
Pleasant Goat and Gray Wolf, who were below the wooden boat, began to move. They broke through the air and flew forward. The space that was shattered by the river collided with the boat and was instantly crushed. The boat did not move at all.
"This …"
Everyone was stunned. Disbelief surfaced in their eyes. To think that the boat really wasn't affected by the violent spatial currents.
"It's … the formation inscribed on the boat!" Hall Master Nie Liaoyuan of the Formation Inscription Hall took a closer look before widening his eyes in realization. "If I'm not mistaken, it should be … the legendary [Shuttling Formation Inscription]!"
"Shuttling Formation Inscription?" Su Yin was perplexed.
Back then, he had only taken a look at the formation blueprint and made some changes to it. He didn't know what tier it was or what it was used for. All he knew was that it had the effect of reinforcing the formation. How did it become a Shuttling Formation Inscription?
Besides, what did 'shuttling' mean?
"Yes, the Shuttling Formation Inscription is one of the top-notch formation inscriptions in the continent. It's a grade-9 formation. It's said that … after engraving it on a weapon, it can travel through space without fear … I've always thought that it was just a legend. I didn't expect it to be true!"
Nie Liaoyuan explained.
Su Yin came to a realization.
It was no wonder that its defense was so strong that even a Seventh Dan Heritage Realm Flood Dragon could be killed by it. It turned out that it wasn't afraid of space shattering.
"Get ready. Let's attack together!"
Fei Ting lowered his voice as the flying boat and the illusory figure approached each other.
Everyone on the deck nodded simultaneously. They focused their attention and circulated their strongest attacks, hoping to deal a fatal blow when they were closer.
"I've been fighting in the Great Yong Province for many years. You can't be so naive as to think that I'll wait here for you to knock me into the river, right?"
Seeing through their actions, the illusory figure laughed heartily, revealing a playful smile. He turned around and flew toward the other side of the river along the other line drawn by the sacrificial ritual.
Everyone, who was preparing for battle, was stunned.
That fellow actually saw through their intentions and fled in advance!
Even if it was just his clone, the strength of an Eternal realm expert was definitely above that of a Heritage realm pinnacle cultivator … Yet, facing a group of Heritage realm experts who were at most at Heritage realm 7-dan, he didn't even bother to exchange blows with them before turning around and fleeing …
Where was the dignity of an expert?
Did he not want to avenge Commander Ming Jiang?
"That fellow is more difficult to deal with than I thought …" Bai Zhanqing narrowed his eyes.
"Indeed!" The crowd nodded in agreement.
To be able to determine that it was impossible for him to defeat them before even coming into contact with them, such a person was far more difficult to deal with than a martial artist who only knew how to charge forward.
"With the guidance of the sacrificial ritual, he can fly across the river and find his tribesmen. What should we do? If Xu Chong, Fei Gong, and the others really encounter him, they won't be a match for him. They might even be wiped out … "Pavilion Master Xuanye said.
More than half of the experts of the alliance who were responsible for the ambush were still fighting with the giant demons on the other side of the river.
Under normal circumstances, there was no need for them to worry. After all, they had attracted most of the enemy's firepower. However … if Jie Mo Luo were to head over, it would be hard to say how the battle would turn out.
If they were the slightest bit careless, they might be wiped out.
"It's impossible to drive the flying boat in the river. Let's head into the river first. Spirit gatherers, gather the spirit veins as soon as possible. As for the others … I hope that they can hold on for a while longer!"
Knowing that it was impossible for them to chase after Jie Mo, Pavilion Master Fei Ting drove the flying boat to the riverside and flew into the river.
The crowd glanced at one another before following closely behind him. The dozen or so spirit gatherers had grave expressions on their faces.
They were the ones who were most important to the appearance of the river. No matter what price they had to pay, they had to gather as many spirit veins as possible so that the cultivators of the Great Yan Prefecture could grow stronger.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Su Yin stowed the flying boat into his storage ring and followed behind with the old tortoise.
The vast river was hidden in the mist. The space outside was torn apart layer by layer, but it was very stable inside. It was not as violent as the outside.
This was the first time that Mo Qingcheng and the others had entered the river, so they were filled with curiosity.
Su Yin also took a closer look at the river. This wasn't a real river, but a liquid formed by the accumulation of spiritual energy, spatial energy, and some impurities.
When it reached their legs, it carried a tearing force. Without sufficient cultivation, it would be difficult for them to withstand it.
The space above the river was collapsing, and the aura was unstable. It was impossible for them to fly across the river without using the waterway.
"If we want to cross the river, we can only swim. There's no other way …"
Knowing that everyone had seen through it, Fei Ting explained helplessly.
"Swim?" Mo Qingcheng, Bai Zhanqing, and the others smiled bitterly. They finally understood why Pavilion Master Xuanye was so nervous. The force of the river grew stronger the deeper one went. Even the space in the depths of the river was unable to withstand it, so how could they, as cultivators, resist it?
If they couldn't resist it, they wouldn't be able to cross the river …
The people on the other side were probably in danger.
"As cultivators of the alliance, we have to be prepared to sacrifice ourselves at any moment. Don't think too much about it. The most important thing is to gather the spirit veins!"
Knowing what everyone was worried about, Fei Ting continued.
His younger brother was right in front of him, and he was the one who was worried the most. But … there was no point in worrying. The most important thing was to gather the spirit veins. As long as they could gather enough spirit veins, even if the people on the other side died, it would be a worthy death!
"Yes!" The faces of the crowd turned grim, and they hurriedly stepped forward.
Su Yin didn't say anything.
He wasn't skilled in long-range attacks. Previously, he had sent a telepathic message to the old tortoise asking if it was possible to strike down the silhouette, but the latter had replied that the distance was too far for lightning to reach.
Thus … it wasn't that he didn't want to make a move against the summoned Jiemo Luo, but … he had no other choice.
If it's really impossible, I'll see if I can swim over myself …
Even though he hadn't learned how to swim before, he had learned it in his previous life. Besides, even if he couldn't swim over, the old tortoise should be able to.
At most, he could just have the old tortoise electrocute the other party to death.
With this thought in mind, Su Yin turned his gaze toward the river as well. With just a glance, a deep frown appeared on his forehead.
The space above the river was unstable, and the spiritual energy was so dense that it felt as if it had materialized. This feeling wasn't foreign to him. On the contrary, it felt extremely familiar … It was actually eighty to ninety percent similar to the forbidden grounds he lived in previously. This … What was going on?
…
While everyone was entering the river, in the forbidden grounds of the Subjugation Immortal Sect, the silhouette flickered, and the lingering spirits appeared once more.
"This is a fusion of … painting, medicine, poison, formation, and sealing?" Wu Daoxian was dumbfounded.
He was in charge of imparting painting to Su Yin, and he was known as the Art Saint.
"That does seem to be the case …" The others nodded in agreement. They glanced at one another in bewilderment. "I can understand how painting can be fused together with formation inscriptions and seals, but how can medicine and poison be fused together?"
"If you don't know, how are we supposed to know? None of us have succeeded in doing so before … "
"Even though it's just the basics, there's no need to worry about it. We'll surely be able to slowly fuse them together in the future!"
"It's only been six days since he left, but he has already fused blacksmithing, medicine, entertainment, painting, poison, formation, and sealing together … That's a total of ten occupations. Given the thirty-six arts that we imparted to him, will he be able to last a month?"
"Forget it, let's not think about it anymore. It's hard to explain a true genius. However … he might be able to comprehend what you imparted to him, but what I imparted is more reserved. I think that it'll be difficult for him to succeed within a short period of time!"
A lingering spirit chuckled.
Agriculture Sage, Yuan Ping!
Wu Daoxian shook his head with a bitter smile. "That's true. You taught him how to plant crops. If I didn't know your true identity beforehand, I wouldn't have guessed that it had something to do with spirit gathering!"
The other lingering spirits also had helpless looks on their faces.
That fellow was simply too cunning.
Spirit gatherers were known for gathering spirit veins and spiritual energy from the world, making it easier for them to notice the presence of spirit gatherers. Yet, this fellow actually chose to plant crops as a cover …
Even they were caught off guard.
"It seems like he'll only be able to comprehend it at the very end …"
"That's only natural. That lad is simply too formidable. If we don't make things difficult for him, wouldn't it make us look incompetent?" Yuan Ping stroked his beard and was just about to continue speaking when his body suddenly stiffened, and his face paled.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Yuan Ping's expression, the others were stunned as well. They turned to look at the Agriculture Sage once more, and their faces reddened.
"Spirit gathering … H-he has comprehended it too!"
Yuan Ping's eyes reddened, and he was on the verge of tears.
It was just a moment ago that he had said that it would be difficult for the other party to comprehend it, but the other party had actually succeeded. Did he really have to slap his face like that?
"I suddenly feel that … given his speed, we might be able to leave this place in less than ten years!"
The Lingering Spirits fell silent.
If someone had told them that they would be able to unseal their seal after spending ten years to groom a young man, they would never have believed it!
But at this moment, they were starting to believe it …
That lad was simply too formidable. Every single step he took was beyond their expectations. Ten years might be a blink of an eye to them, but to the other party, he might really be able to grow to a level that they could only look up to!
…
Oblivious to the murmurs of the lingering spirits, Su Yin's frown grew deeper and deeper.
Previously, he had thought that it was due to the seal, but from the looks of it now, it was very similar to the Spirit Abyss that he was currently in.
Could it be that …
There was a river in the Lingyuan River as well?
Otherwise, how could his soil and manure be of such high quality?
But if there was really a river, why didn't he notice it at all?
"I must have seen wrongly …" After a moment of contemplation, Su Yin tossed such thoughts aside.
The Lingyuan River was located within the Lingyuan River, and it contained a spirit vein. If the Immortal Subduing Sect really had such a treasure, they wouldn't have to worry about the safety of the other top-tier sects.
"I can't take it anymore. I can only extract it from here …"
After walking for a while, the Transcendent Mortal spirit gatherers came to a halt awkwardly.
Su Yin glanced over and saw that they had only entered ten meters into the river.
The force of the river grew stronger the deeper one went. Naturally, those with lower cultivation wouldn't be able to venture any deeper.
"Let's do it here. Since we've gathered a Grade-3 spirit vein, we should be able to extract it quickly. The few of you will stay here to ensure their safety. If anything happens, retreat immediately," Fei Ting instructed.
The experts of the Alliance nodded in agreement.
Upon receiving the agreement, the spirit gatherers stood quietly on the spot. They opened their pores, and the spiritual energy from the river swiftly gathered around them, forming the shape of a spirit vein.
Just like before, it was a grade-3 spirit vein, but the speed at which it gathered was several times faster than outside the river.
In just two to three minutes, a single spirit vein was formed.
"Let's continue heading in. If we keep a lookout, we should be able to pick up quite a few treasures …" Fei Ting led the remaining spirit gatherers and the crowd forward.
Upon hearing that there were treasures, the eyes of the sect leaders lit up, and they looked around curiously.
"It's here …" Fei Ting suddenly bellowed.
Everyone raised their heads, and they saw a black silhouette flying over at an incredible speed.
Prepared, Fei Ting raised his hand, and a jade token exploded on the surface of the river not too far away. A seal floated in the air.
The seal was indeed similar to a fishing net. With a light shake, the black silhouette was wrapped up.
"This is … the Nine-Leafed Hemp Tree. In order to treat my daughter, I spent five years searching for it at the bottom of a cliff. Why would it be flowing along the river?"
Bai Zhanqing could not believe that he had recognized what was in the 'fishing net'.
The Nine-Leafed Hemp Tree was extremely rare. Even as the emperor of the Great Yan Empire, he had to pay an exorbitant price to find it. Yet, he had managed to grab it from the river, and there was more than one of it …
"The Nine-Leafed Hemp Tree is just one of the most common treasures in the river!"
Fei Ting shook his head. The 'fishing net' flew out once more, and another item was pulled over by him.
It was a dark mass of something that looked like dirt.
"Is this the Dragon Blood Soil?"
Mo Qingcheng recognized it. "It's said that this thing is made from dragon blood. It can be used to forge weapons, and it can also be used as a medicinal ingredient. It's easy to use it to cultivate precious spirit herbs. It's incomparably precious, and every single grain is priceless. You can't buy it with money. This … "
Some of the most precious medicinal ingredients had extremely high requirements for the quality of the soil and the environment. It was extremely difficult to cultivate them, and the Dragon Blood Soil was one of the best nurturing materials.
As long as one could obtain a fist-sized grain, one wouldn't have to worry about cultivating spirit herbs. The other party had grabbed a football-sized grain …
As expected of the Spirit Abyss River, there were truly many treasures here.
"The deeper we go, the higher the grade of the treasures. Not only that, there are also weapons. If we're lucky, it's not impossible to obtain a Perfect Spirit Artifact …"
Seeing everyone's expressions, Fei Ting smiled.
"A Perfect Spirit Artifact?" Everyone's eyes lit up.
A weapon of that level could be considered as one of the greatest treasures of the Qingyun Sect. If one could obtain one, one's fighting prowess would be raised twofold.
Due to the upgrade of the Luminous Moon Cauldron, Mo Yuan didn't fear the Green-scaled Python at all. Even the latter would cower in pain from a single strike of his cauldron.
"There's indeed something good here!"
"I've been searching for the Bluestone Ore for many years, but to no avail. I didn't expect to find one here …"
"I've only read about the Silkgrave Flower in the ancient records. Even though this one looks a little withered, and its leaves are slightly damaged, its medicinal properties are still intact. The poison it produces is bound to be powerful."
It didn't take long for the crowd to obtain treasures. There were medicinal herbs and ores, but no one had seen any weapons yet.
"Pavilion Master Fei, do you know where the Spirit Abyss River comes from?"
Su Yin asked doubtfully. "I don't know.
It's said that it came from the void, and it shattered space wherever it passed, resulting in the appearance of the Otherworldly Demon … "Pavilion Master Fei shook his head." Of course, that's just a legend, so I'm not too sure about the details. "
"You mean to say that … the Spirit Abyss Demons only appeared after the appearance of the Spirit Abyss River?" Su Yin frowned.
"I'm not too sure, but according to the records in the ancient records, the two appeared around the same time! Ten thousand years ago, the spirit veins of the Master Teacher Continent dried up overnight. Just as the cultivators were panicking, the Spirit Abyss Demons appeared and massacred them! "
Fei Ting pondered for a moment before explaining, "Elder Lin Xuan of your esteemed sect rose like a comet. He led the human cultivators to quell the threat of the Otherworldly Demon and found the Spirit Abyss where they appeared! I believe you should know what happened after that. He sealed the exit and formed an alliance to fight against the Otherworldly Demon … Eventually, the cultivators discovered that the Spirit Abyss River would appear once every five years. There were many treasures there, and it could gather spirit veins as well. Thus, they began to use the Spirit Abyss River as their border to fight against the Otherworldly Demon! In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years have passed … "
Su Yin widened his eyes in realization.
If that was the case, the Otherworldly Demon had appeared first before the human cultivators had discovered the Spirit Abyss River.
Knowing that Zhang Xuan was perplexed, Fei Ting asked, "Junior Uncle, are you curious about where the spirit veins and treasures in the Spirit Abyss River come from?"
"Un!" Su Yin nodded.
Nothing appeared out of thin air. The spirit veins gathered by a dozen or so spirit gatherers were enough to sustain the cultivation of countless cultivators of a continent for five years … This was enough to show how rich the spiritual energy in the Spirit Abyss River was.
If the spirit veins that flowed down were already so powerful, what about the source? How powerful would the source be?
If this continued, no matter how many spirit veins there were, they would have been depleted by now!
"More than ten thousand years ago, there were people who were curious about this matter. Not just the experts of the Great Yan Prefecture, but even the experts of the Great Qian Prefecture and the Great Yuan Prefecture went there to investigate as well … but none of them returned!"
Fei Ting shook his head. "Of course, it's not that there's no news at all. It's said that the Spirit Abyss Demons live upstream of the Spirit Abyss River …"
"Spirit Abyss Demons?"
Su Yin frowned. "Does that mean that the Spirit Abyss Demons might know where the source of the river is?"
"I don't think so!" Fei Ting shook his head. "I've captured many demons alive and asked them similar questions. It's said that … they don't know where the river comes from either. They only know that it will suddenly appear when it's time, and all kinds of treasures and spiritual energy will fall. If not for the fact that the Spirit Abyss has such a river and the Spirit Abyss Demons are reluctant to part with it, they would have launched a mad counterattack long ago. The human cultivators might have been wiped out! "
Su Yin was speechless.
Although there were human experts and the passage was unstable, there was no river in the Spirit Abyss that could flow with spirit veins. The Spirit Abyss Demons might really rush over and kill all the humans.
"Alright, everyone, let's search for treasures here. If you want to cultivate, you can also take the opportunity to break through to the Inheritance Realm. Although the spiritual energy here is not filtered and there are many impurities, it's enough for you to break through to the Inheritance Realm!"
As the two of them spoke, they stopped dozens of meters away from the shore. At this time, the river was even more turbulent, and the Inheritance Realm experts could not stand steadily.
The dozens of Alliance experts did not care about searching for treasures. Instead, they all stood in front of the spirit gatherers and blocked the impact for them. As for the spirit gatherers, they were all gathering spirit veins with serious expressions.
It seemed that they had reached the first grade.
"Un!"
Hearing that Zhang Xuan was no longer advancing forward, the crowd heaved a sigh of relief.
"Little Senior Uncle … I would like to ask a question. Is it possible for me to ask a slightly private question? If you find it inconvenient to answer, then forget it …"
Fei Ting looked at the other side of the river with a conflicted expression. After a long moment, he finally turned his head over.
"Feel free to ask. As long as it's within my means, I'll surely answer it!" Su Yin said.
Taking a deep breath, Fei Ting asked, "May I know … how powerful is Little Senior Uncle?"
Su Yin did not expect the other party to ask such a question, and he frowned.
The sect leaders and experts of the Alliance who were searching for treasures in the area also turned their gazes over curiously.
After interacting with the other party for a short period of time, they felt that Zhang Xuan's cultivation was unfathomable. They were curious to know how powerful he was.
Seeing the other party's sincere attitude, Su Yin hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell the truth. "I'm only at Zongshi realm pinnacle!"
"Zongshi realm pinnacle? Even if Little Senior Uncle doesn't want to say it, surely you don't have to be so perfunctory … "Fei Ting said with a bitter smile.
You're at Zongshi realm pinnacle?
If that's the extent of your cultivation, I might not even be at Juxi realm!
Even if you don't want to tell the truth, you should at least tell the truth …
Is it really alright to fool the other party like this?
"I …"
Seeing that the other party didn't believe him even after he revealed his true cultivation, Su Yin frowned. Just as he was about to explain, a frown suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The time that he could control the previously fused spiritual energy was about to run out. If he didn't place it into his dantian now, it would be too late …
Not bothering to speak, Zhang Xuan willed the fused spiritual energy of Painting, Medicine, Poison, Formation, and Seal into the center of the Taiji diagram.
Boom!
In an instant, spiritual energy descended from the sky and gushed into Zhang Xuan's body furiously.
Su Yin didn't have the time to talk. Following the method of farming, he extracted the chaotic spiritual energy. Streams of pure energy pierced through the air and flowed along his meridians, circulating chaotically.
Kacha! Kacha!
The shackles of Zongshi realm pinnacle were broken in an instant.
Heritage 1-dan!
Heritage 2-dan!
Heritage 3-dan!
…
In just ten breaths, Zhang Xuan had reached Heritage 5-dan, and he was still making rapid progress.
"Has this part of the river been sucked dry?"
The spirit gatherers who were gathering the spirit veins were stunned.
Half of the spirit meridians in front of them flew to their "Little Uncle-Master" and bowed, begging to be absorbed.
With the other party as the center, a vacuum was formed in a short period of time. Almost all of the spiritual energy was sucked dry!
"Continue!"
Su Yin didn't know how shocking his actions were. Sensing that he could still make progress, he continued to absorb the spiritual energy.
Heritage 6-dan!
Heritage 7-dan!
…
Finally, he stopped at Heritage 9-dan pinnacle.
Seeing that he couldn't make any further progress, Su Yin could only exhale the turbid air. Raising his head, he saw that Fei Ting was still staring at him. Embarrassed, he explained, "Oh, I'm sorry. I just made a small breakthrough. I'm no longer at Zongshi realm pinnacle …"
"…"
The surroundings fell silent.
You call this kind of breakthrough a 'small breakthrough'?
I just said that you were 'perfunctory', and you raised your cultivation by nine levels …
Do you have to fool me like that?
Why don't you continue saying that you are perfunctory and make a breakthrough to Eternal?
If you don't want to say it, you can't do it like that …
"Uh …"
Seeing everyone's expression, Su Yin knew that they were wrong. Spreading his hands, Su Yin looked at them with sincerity. "If I say that I'm telling the truth … Will you believe me?"
"Haha!"
Everyone laughed dryly. Fei Ting also covered his forehead.
Believe you? To hell with it!
