Chapter 242: Entering the Blessed Land
Chapter 242: Entering the Blessed Land
"The Primordial Soul Clan is indeed extraordinary."
Fang Xing naturally knew that such a self-aware Spirit Treasure was far more powerful than the 'Azure Sun Evil Lamp' in his possession.
It might even be a Fourth Rank Middle-grade or a Fourth Rank High-grade Spirit Treasure!
With such a treasure, if it were within the grand array and drawing upon the energy of a Fourth Rank spirit vein, it should be able to launch several strikes in succession.
This was equivalent to having a reusable Fourth Rank ability, and even if it was not particularly powerful, it would be more than enough to protect its foundation.
"It seems that the Mu Family is the leader of the Core Formation clans."
Fang Xing spoke calmly.
No matter how glorious a Primordial Soul Clan might be, it cannot withstand the passage of time.
When the Nascent Soul True Monarch reaches the end of their lifespan and passes away, if the family does not produce a second True Monarch, maintaining the clan with its heritage is already a commendable feat.
"Indeed... I heard that the Mu Family has a Qilin Son who has condensed a Half-Gold Core. This time, he is probably aiming for the Divine Infant Fruit..."
Meng Xingtong's face showed concern as she transmitted her thoughts through Divine Soul Transmission.
If a cultivator from the Mu Family were to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, the once-stable cultivation world of Dajiang would likely descend into chaos once again.
For cultivators like them, whose cultivation base is not particularly high but rely on their ancestors to occupy certain resources, a chaotic cultivation world is the last thing they want to see.
However, for those with exceptional strength but lacking in resources and support, they yearn for war and crave chaos!
At that moment, on the other side of the mountain, numerous Demon Cultivators suddenly appeared.
Some rode on blood clouds, some sat on white bone thrones, and others were accompanied by countless resentful souls and Corpse Refiners. They exuded a dense demonic aura.
"It's the sects and families from the Demon Dao... Now that they've arrived, it's time for us to ascend the mountain."
Butterfly Buds Lady chuckled lightly.
The next moment,
Boom!
Astonishing surges of spiritual power appeared one after another, reaching the Late Core Formation stage and even the Perfect Core Formation level!
It even gave ordinary Late Core Formation cultivators a sense of oppression, displaying the might of the Golden Core!
Ten figures split into two groups, facing off against each other. Behind them were Core Formation elders, executives, and other cultivators riding on their respective Nascent Soul sect's flying Mystic Artifacts.
"These are cultivators from the Ten Major Sects of Righteous and Evil."
The cultivators below exclaimed in surprise.
Fang Xing glanced over and spotted Fu Hongyi among them.
Aside from him, there was Righteous Vitality, dressed in a Confucian robe, with a refined appearance. He held a book in his hand, resembling a scholarly gentleman. He took a half-step forward, assuming the role of the leader of the Righteous Path.
On the Demon Dao side, facing Righteous Vitality, was a man with a face like golden paper, wearing a black robe, and looking as if he could ascend to the heavens at any moment.
This man was one of the Five Heroes of the Dark Path, Jade Purity, from the Ziyang Sect.
Among the Five Sons of the Righteous Path and the Five Heroes of the Dark Path present, only he and Righteous Vitality stood on equal footing, their cultivation bases having reached the Perfect Core Formation realm!
After exchanging a few words through Divine Soul Transmission, they rushed towards Abyss Mountain.
Whoosh!
Above their heads, numerous Spirit Orbs appeared, transforming into light circles.
One by one, the high-level Core Formation cultivators from the various sects of the Righteous and Evil Paths flew into the light circles.
Boom!
Abyss Mountain trembled, and thick silver-white pillars of light descended, enveloping the light circles.
The cultivators within the light circles vanished in an instant.
Among them, Fu Hongyi's light circle contained only one person, making it stand out.
"As expected, Fu Hongyi is a one-man-one-sword type. Is the Heaven Sword Sect sending only one participant? That's the style of a Sword Cultivator!"
Fang Xing nodded slightly.
He had no intention of acknowledging each other, as he was already concerned about how to explain his sudden surge in cultivation. Moreover, the actions he had planned within the secret realm might invite punishment. Upon leaving the secret realm, he might face beatings and pursuit from the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of both the Righteous and Evil Paths.
It was better not to involve anyone else.
"Let's go!"
On the other side, within the loose cultivator camp, the Heavenly Dust Elder waved his whisk, and the original battle formation instantly split into smaller groups of five, rushing into Abyss Mountain.
"The Unstable Array... This person's array formation skills are indeed extraordinary."
Song Ningjing was surprised by this scene.
"Let's go too... The Spirit Orb will randomly teleport us to the outskirts of the Lustrous Blessing Land. The good news is that we can go together in groups of five."
Meng Xinyu spoke to Wind Ascendant.
"Let's go."
Fang Xing nodded and rode a blue light, taking out a jade token from his embrace, which transformed into a light circle, enveloping the four women.
As they entered Abyss Mountain, a silver-white pillar of light descended.
...
"Is this teleportation?"
Fang Xing carefully experienced the sensation of teleportation, and the cultivation techniques of the Great Wilderness were indeed lacking, as they didn't even have teleportation arrays.
Only this blessed land's secret realm teleportation allowed him to slightly sense the mysteries of the changes in the void.
At this moment, as far as the eye could see, there was a vast expanse of yellow sand.
Not far away, some black stone pillars stood tall, some already broken, with strange inscriptions carved upon them.
Butterfly Buds Lady, Song Ningjing, Meng Xinyu, and the Meng Jia Sisters landed nearby and instinctively gathered together.
"This place... seems to be the 'Western Extreme Desert' within the Lustrous Blessing Land!"
Song Ningjing's sword aura rose, and she summoned a strange scorpion with red skin and black patterns from the desert, "This is the local specialty - Crimson Sand Black Scorpion!"
Her voice carried a hint of excitement.
Fang Xing, of course, knew what she was excited about. The underground cavern sealed by the Crystal Essence Divine Light Barrier was located in this area!
"According to our previous agreement, after entering, we'll head to the nearest resource point first..."
He held a jade slip in his hand and infused it with a bit of spiritual power, causing a light screen to appear, transforming into a three-dimensional map.
"The Lustrous Blessing Land is too vast, almost like a small world... Even a Core Formation cultivator might not be able to travel from one end to the other within a month.
"The opening of the Lustrous Blessing Land is only for a month at most! So, planning the route is crucial."
Since all the female Core Formation Cultivators had their own needs, it was essential to first determine their position upon entering the blessed land and then start planning the route.
"Currently, we are in the Western Extreme Desert..."
Fang Xing lightly touched the desert on the western side of the map, "We should first pass through Ten Thousand Burial Mountain, Thousand Bone Grove, Blade Wind Canyon... and enter the central region. The central part of the blessed land is the richest in spiritual resources and various ancient relics and palaces."
"That underground cavern is located somewhere in Ten Thousand Burial Mountain!" Song Ningjing's eyes lit up, and she was very satisfied with this.
Even if they could only obtain a little of the Ten Thousand Year Milkstone, it was still a fourth-rank spiritual object!
For a First Stage Core Formation Cultivator, even if they sold it, they could exchange it for a considerable amount of cultivation resources.
"Hmm, we can gather some resources along the way, but we should mainly focus on the central region..."
Fang Xing pondered for a moment, "After reaching the central region, I want to visit the Divine Infant Cliff!"
Upon hearing this, the four female cultivators' expressions changed repeatedly.
Divine Infant Cliff was the core of Lustrous Blessing Land, filled with countless mysterious restrictions, and on the cliff grew a Nine-Origin Incarnation Vine. Every five hundred years, it would bear several Divine Infancy Fruits, with the number varying from one to nine, all depending on heaven's will. It was known as the first incarnation opportunity in the Great Jing.
"Fellow Daoist, you want to lay your hands on an incarnation spiritual object?"
Meng Xingtong looked at Wind Ascendant as if she was seeing him for the first time, "That must be the most intense battlefield for both the righteous and evil paths... Even at the Late Core Formation stage, it's not certain if one can get close..."
"Hehe, we have to give it a try. Perhaps my opportunity has arrived, and I'll succeed."
Fang Xing chuckled.
"Senior..."
At this moment, Butterfly Buds Lady spoke in a coquettish tone, "You promised to accompany me to the Northern Region to search for the Spirit Shadow Butterfly..."
Ikke
"Alright, we'll first go and take a look near the Divine Infant Cliff, and then we'll head to the Northern Region!"
Fang Xing seemed to sense something and revealed a faint smile.
Their route covered the Western Desert, Central Region, and Northern Region... Even a month seemed a bit rushed.
Meanwhile, his main body could go to the Central Region, East Sea, and Southern Wilderness to gather spiritual objects.
The Central Region was the most abundant in resources, so they could stay there for a while.
Not bad!
Just now, he had already tried it.
Using his Golden Finger, he could teleport directly into the Lustrous Blessing Land.
Moreover...
It wasn't the random teleportation of the Spirit Orb, but he could precisely locate himself next to his cultivation doppelganger!
'It seems like even Ten Thousand Dharmas Primordial Spirits can... Does the Lustrous Blessing Land allow False Incarnation Cultivators to enter? No, it's my Golden Finger status, suppressing the rules of the blessed land?'
Fang Xing's heart was filled with joy.
This way, he didn't have to pretend anymore! The five of them boarded Meng Xinyu's Flying Chariot and immediately set off.
Less than half a shichen after taking off, Fang Xing's expression changed, "Not good..."
Whoosh!
Amidst the vast yellow sand, a figure flew out from the ground, exuding a startling aura.
Clang! Amidst the clear and melodious sword cry that resembled a dragon's roar, the Autumn Water Sword's blade glowed coldly, slicing through the dense sand and landing on the attacker.
Thud! The attacker chuckled and extended his right hand.
His fingers were fair and delicate, emitting a faint golden light. Despite the Autumn Water Sword's blade striking his fingers, he casually flicked it away.
The Autumn Water Sword let out a sorrowful cry and returned to Song Ningjing's hand.
"Impossible, even a third-rank Middle-grade Body Refiner wouldn't dare to block my Autumn Water Sword directly... Could it be... a third-rank High-grade? To be able to withstand a Mystic Artifact without wearing a Spirit Treasure armor?"
Song Ningjing instantly felt her sword's spirit waver.
In this world, Body Refiners still belonged to the category of cultivators. Even third-rank Body Refiners needed to prepare a set of Spirit Treasure armor.
But this suddenly appearing Body Refiner had a physique so formidable that even third-rank High-grade demonic beasts would feel ashamed in comparison.
"A master!"
"Could it be someone sent by the Qiao Family or Heartless Child?"
Meng Xinyu held her sister's hand, and the sisters cast a combined strike secret art. A Starmesh descended, dreamlike and illusory.
She transmitted her voice through Divine Sense, "Sister... Should we leave?"
"Let's wait a bit."
Meng Xingtong produced a high-grade talisman, biting her lip as she secretly transmitted, "There's something off about Wind Ascendant. He dared to confront Heartless Child before, and now he wants to go to the Divine Infant Cliff after entering the blessed land... He must have some confidence."
"Perfect timing!"
Fang Xing, disguised as Wind Ascendant, laughed heartily and raised his hand. The Azure Flying Blade Mystic Artifact he obtained from that dead guy appeared and slashed towards his main body.
"Hmph!"
His main body coldly snorted and blocked the attack with his fist.
When his main body was at the Martial Dao Golden Core stage, his Martial Dao will was so powerful that Huo Mo Qing evaluated it as a Near Fourth Rank Spirit Perception attack.
After reaching the Vajra Realm, his Martial Dao will increased explosively.
At this moment, with a cold snort, all four female First Stage Core Formation Cultivators fell into a daze.
Seizing this momentary opportunity, the Ten Thousand Dharmas Primordial Spirit in Fang Xing's main body's embrace appeared with a mischievous smile. With a single teleport, it reached the top of his cultivation doppelganger's head and entered through the Heavenly Spirit into the Dantian, sitting cross-legged.
Fake Primordial-grade spiritual power emerged, and Fang Xing's cultivation doppelganger instantly felt empowered! He laughed heartily and retracted ninety percent of his strength, sending out a burst of spiritual power.
The Azure Flying Blade Mystic Artifact instantly seemed to have consumed a great tonic, bursting with dazzling brilliance. Suddenly, it split into two, then four...
The sky and earth were completely enveloped by azure arc blades.
"Late Core Formation?!"
Butterfly Buds Lady, who had just regained her senses, witnessed this scene and her face lit up with joy, "Wind Ascendant secretly broke through to the Late Core Formation stage? We're saved!"
