In the Frigid Jade Sea Region, there was a sudden rumble in the Xuan Ze Sea Region of the True Purification Palace. Because the entrance to the small world was not closed, the sound gradually spread outside and echoed in the sky above the Frigid Jade Sea Region. Even the clouds in the sky were scattered, revealing a clear sky.
When the cultivators in the continent saw this scene, they could not help but exclaim in surprise. Over the past few decades, there had been people in the Dark Azure Sect who had attained the Heavenly Abode, and there had also been a huge commotion. The others had all guessed which senior cultivator had attained perfection in his cultivation and actually produced such an unprecedented grand scene.
Only some Grotto-heaven cultivators with profound cultivation had vaguely guessed something.
In the main hall of the True Purification Palace, Zhang Yan was wearing a black robe and sitting on a jade platform. At this moment, the rumbling sound was coming from his body. At the same time, the surroundings of the palace were filled with mysterious Chaotic Xuan Qi, and the restrictions inside and outside the small world were trembling, as if they were under great pressure.
After about a few hours, all the sounds suddenly stopped, and even the Xuan Qi disappeared without a trace. The small world returned to how it was before.
Zhang Yan opened his eyes, and in that instant, there seemed to be a burst of light. The entire world suddenly lit up, and behind him, there was also a flash of five-colored divine light.
At this moment, he had already broken through the ninth barrier!
Since ancient times, there were very few cultivators who could reach this step. Not to mention those who came from outer space, among the ancestors of the nine continents, there were only two that could be found.
And the reason why these two could reach this stage was not because their aptitude was better than the descendants, but because they had cultivated earlier, when the purple gas had not faded and the spirit was not lacking.
When Zhang Yan withdrew the rising magic power, he could already clearly feel that after this, he could still break through the third barrier. If he could pass it, he would immediately form an origin embryo. Then he could cultivate the superior dao technique of shedding the mortal body.
He adjusted his breathing for a moment and thought, "It's time to go to the abyss." “
After receiving the letter from the Spirit Gate, he wanted to go to the abyss, but he just felt that his opportunity had arrived. He had reached a critical moment in his cultivation, so he was delayed.
Fortunately, it was an urgent matter. Even if the journey was delayed for a few days, it was not a big deal.
He stood up from the praying mat and stepped into the formation door. When he arrived at the outer hall and looked out through the pillar, he saw a beautiful demon with bright and beautiful feathers spreading its wings, floating in the sky like a kite.
Seeing that he had come out of his closed-door training, the demon's body gradually shrank. It flew into the hall and circled around him in a very intimate manner.
Zhang Yan smiled. He could see that Zhang Yan's expression changed. Ever since the Severed Demon gained new life, it seemed to have gained a little more spirituality due to the nourishment of the sanguine aura. It became more and more like a living being.
Jing You was originally on duty outside, but when he sensed him coming out of seclusion, he came in and bowed, "Master."
Zhang Yan: "Is there anything that needs to be reported?"
Jing You replied: "There is one. Spiritual Master Han sent a letter. The three kinds of demon dragons are very useful, but they discovered that the Heavenly Ghost Tribe actually moved a Cloud Whale King into the Northern Cold Abyss. The Heavenly Ghost Tribe actually moved a Cloud Whale King into the Northern Cold Abyss, and they're currently searching for its whereabouts. Right now, Spiritual Master Han doesn't have enough manpower, so he wants to ask the sect to send more people over. "
"Whale King?"
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows. He knew that the Heavenly Ghost Tribe had a Cloud Whale in the Northern Cold Abyss. The three tribes that were destroyed had intended to come over, so they were transferred to the Chaotic Space Domain by the Zhikong Beautiful Map.
However, he did not deliberately search for it. That was because the Cloud Whale had been silent in the Northern Cold Abyss for a long time and did not have many offspring. Even if the Heavenly Ghost Tribe sent more people over, there would not be many. Leaving it in the continent would just be another bait.
Regarding this matter, before Han Zuocheng left, he had also given instructions. Therefore, the Cloud Whale King mentioned this time was obviously another one.
However, what he did not understand was that the Heavenly Ghost Tribe had learned their lesson last time. They should know that using the Cloud Whale to move back and forth was a waste of effort and damage. So why did they still do it?
From Sima Quanhe, he learned that the master of the Heavenly Ghost Tribe, Yao Zhe, was not a short-sighted person. There must be a reason for this.
He thought for a moment, and after a moment, his eyes flashed as he thought of a possibility.
The Zhikong Beautiful Map only separated the Western Absolute Domain and the Northern Cold Abyss. But if the Heavenly Ghost Tribe did not pass through, and instead went around the other continents, there would not be such an obstruction.
Previously, he had guessed why the demons of the Hundred Southern Net Continent kept moving north, but he could not be sure. But combining this matter, it suddenly became clear.
On the surface, they wanted to attack the North Continent, but in reality, they were very likely to be a cover for the Heavenly Ghost Tribe. It was likely that the tribes in front of the Chaotic Magnetic Chasm were purposely placed there by the Heavenly Ghost Tribe's ancestral tribe to cover their true goal.
But in a war between two sides, any chess piece was useful. He believed that if this path was blocked, the other side's idle chess pieces could immediately turn into the main force.
Zhang Yan smiled. The Heavenly Ghost Tribe had made this move with great patience, and it was also very bold.
He could conclude that there were not many Heavenly Ghost Tribe members involved in this matter. Otherwise, Sima Quanhe would have discovered something and there would have been news.
It was probably for this reason that up until now, no large tribes had come to the continent.
Since he knew their goal, the next step was easy. Right now, the key was the Whale King. Perhaps there was more than one that had come to the Northern Cold Abyss. As long as he found all of them, he could cut off this matter from the source.
After sorting out his thoughts, he said, "I remember that Sage Sima's disciple called Fang Shen An was originally from the Southern Flower Sect."
Jing You said, "Yes, although this person is Sage Sima's disciple, his cultivation method is from the Southern Flower Sect. He is very good at controlling mausoleum beasts."
Zhang Yan said, "Yes, let Fang Shen An go to help Zuo Cheng. He can recruit the manpower he needs. As long as they are willing to go with him, he can deploy them. Also, is that Ban Xia Demon Saint still in the continent?"
Jing You said, "He is still in the prison. No one dares to deal with him without Master's order."
Zhang Yan said, "Bring this demon here."
Jing You said, "This lowly one will go and deliver the order."
About an hour later, Ban Xia Demon Saint came to the hall trembling with fear. He transformed into his human form and learned the etiquette of the nine continents. He kowtowed and said, "This lowly demon greets Sage."
Since he was captured, he had been imprisoned in the Cold Jade Sea Province. Later, when he heard that several other demon sages were taken to be fed to a ferocious beast, he was afraid that he would also end up like them.
Zhang Yan looked at him and said, "Fellow Daoist Ban Xia, I remember that you once said that you have a lot of cloud refined insects under your command. They can drill into mountains and enter the ground, swim across the sea and rivers, and go to many dangerous places. Is that so?"
Ban Xia Demon Saint said, "Yes, yes, this lowly demon did not exaggerate."
Zhang Yan said again, "You have been captured for more than seventy years. Can these cloud refined insects still be used? “
Ban Xia Demon Saint said, "Reporting to Sage, these cloud refined insects only listen to this lowly demon's command. They will not be taken away by others. Even if they all die, if this lowly demon does not hesitate to use his blood essence, he can still raise more."
Originally, with his ability, it was the most convenient to use him to find treasured medicines, but how could the cultivators of the nine continents entrust him with such a big matter related to their own cultivation? They would rather keep him in captivity than trust him.
Zhang Yan said, "Now there is a matter that can use your ability. If it is done well, you can be free."
Jing You said, "Now in the Northern Heaven Cold Abyss, there is a cloud whale sent here by the Heavenly Ghost Tribe. Can you find it?"
When Ban Xia Demon Saint heard this, he patted his chest and said, "Sage can rest assured. Leave this matter to this lowly demon, I will definitely be able to do it safely, but …"
Zhang Yan said, "If there is any difficulty, you can say it."
Ban Xia Demon Saint hurriedly said, "It is not that there is a difficulty. May I ask Sage, if this matter is done well, can this lowly demon enter the sect?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "You want to enter my Qincang School? My Qincang School does not accept demons as disciples, but if you really make a contribution, it is not impossible to be a deacon guarding the cave. "
Ban Xia Demon Saint was overjoyed and repeatedly kowtowed.
Zhang Yan waved his sleeves and ordered Jing You to take him away, while he himself left the Du Zhen Palace and rode a ray of light to the southwest Earth Abyss.
On the way, he used the void several times, and after a few hours, he arrived in front of the Pure Yin Barrier Formation. Then, he turned into a ray of light and descended.
When he came, he did not deliberately conceal his aura, and his momentum was extremely great. When Yuwen Hongyang and the other cultivators of the Spiritual Gate sensed his arrival, they all came out to greet him. After greeting him outside the door, they invited him into the palace. After some questioning, they learned that he was here to deal with the strange stone.
Yuwen Hongyang said, "No one can touch this stone. It is now in the sixth layer of the Earth Abyss. I will have to trouble Sage to personally go there."
Zhang Yan made an 'oh' sound and said, "The sixth floor?"
Wen Qingxiang came out and explained, "After we occupied this place, we found that the Earth Abyss is divided into many layers, and the bottom is endless. The Shanyang Clan has only occupied the top four layers for thousands of years. In order to prevent any strange things from happening below, we sent our disciples down to investigate, and it was at the sixth layer that we found this strange stone. At that time, two disciples were accidentally sucked into the stone, and they never came out again. Later on, we tried to test it, but we could not do anything to this stone."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "There is indeed something strange about it." He stood up from his seat and said, "Let me go and take a look."
The rest of the Zhenrens also stood up. Yuwen Hongyang took out a spell and opened up an array door in the hall. He said, "Go through this, and you will reach the location of the strange stone. Sage Zhang, please."
Zhang Yan shook his sleeves and strode over.
After stepping out of the array door, he looked up and found himself at the bottom of a ravine. There were jagged rocks everywhere, and the plants around him were all greyish white. Not far in front of him, there was a diamond-shaped strange stone floating in the air. It was about ten feet in size and three feet off the ground.
He stared at it for a moment, and his eyes lit up. He walked forward.
However, as he got closer, the strange stone seemed to have sensed a great threat and began to vibrate. Then, a white and yellow light bloomed from the stone.
Zhang Yan smiled. Now he could be sure that this thing looked like a stone on the surface, but it was actually a living thing!
