Chapter 356: Immortal Mansion Treasure
"This..."
Within Fang Xing's Sea of Consciousness, a Vajra Wrathful Bodhisattva Golden Body suddenly appeared.
Jue Ming was truly bewildered.
Regardless of whether one cultivated the Buddha, Demon, or Qi, the Sea of Consciousness was of utmost importance, and no one would dare to intrude upon it.
But the next moment, he realized something was amiss.
Hot!
Scorching heat!
At some point, his Vajra Wrathful Bodhisattva Golden Body was submerged within a strange Great Sun Furnace.
Countless Great Sun True Flames and Sun Golden Flames... instantly engulfed him.
"Patron... why?"
Jue Ming, being an Incarnation cultivator, was still able to speak.
"Never mind the rest, just your previous two attacks against me are enough to condemn you to death."
Fang Xing's gaze turned cold and hard.
Furthermore, he had no idea whether Jue Ming's previous words were true or not, and he didn't intend to inspect them carefully.
He would burn the other party to ashes, once and for all! Roaring flames!
The Great Sun True Flames mixed with golden flames, completely engulfing the golden Soul Body.
Not only that, but Fang Xing's will was like a sharp blade, and with a single slash, he eradicated all signs of life from the Soul Body! Subsequently, as the Great Sun Buddha Mantra swiftly refined Jue Ming's Soul Body, clear images emerged one after another.
"As expected... this Jue Ming is deceiving me!"
"He didn't die while subduing the demon... but was actively sought out and killed by the Ancient Demon..."
"Moreover, the Buddhist Realm, Demon Realm, and Spirit Realm have consecutively had Grandmasters descend, and it's not as simple as spreading faith and vying for territory... Or rather, these two are just auxiliary, and the true goal of the Upper Realm is to find a so-called 'Immortal Mansion Treasure'!"
"The Upper Realm has confirmed that within the Primordial Universe, a 'Immortal Mansion Treasure' has emerged..."
Fang Xing slowly savored the most important memories within Jue Ming's Soul Body.
"'Immortal Mansion Treasure'... is a treasure coveted even by Essence Transformation Grandmasters, and in the Upper Realm, even Essence Transformation cultivators can't even get close to it..."
"The true 'Immortal Mansion Treasure' can utilize the power of rules! This is somewhat terrifying..."
The power of the Immortal Mansion Treasure to utilize the rules would definitely not be limited to the insights of the Star Sovereign Realm or Stellar Rank.
Instead, it would be akin to almost fully comprehending the might of a single Spatial Law! In other words, it would possess power close to the 'Law Sovereign Realm'!
In the main universe, this would be the power of the Twelve Realms, and in the Cultivation World, it would be akin to a True Immortal!
"Precisely because of this, the Upper Realm borrows the power of Descension, and high-level cultivators descend... but they can't find it!"
The Immortal Mansion Treasure has the ability to conceal itself and veil the Heavens, making it extremely difficult to detect it solely based on its aura.
Not to mention, even the Grandmasters of the Upper Realm don't know the appearance or function of the Immortal Mansion Treasure... it's like finding a needle in a haystack.
As for the grudge between the Ancient Demon and the Primordial Soul Sword Sect, that's not something Jue Ming is aware of.
He merely speculates that the Primordial Soul Sword Sect might have found a clue to the Immortal Mansion Treasure, which is why the Ancient Demon sought them out for revenge.
At that time, the Primordial Soul Sword Sect had an 'Incarnation Heavenly Venerable', an Incarnation Late-stage cultivator, and a Sixth Stage Grand Formation suppressing their fate, yet they still perished together with the Ancient Demon.
"Indeed, it's a worthy opponent, an Essence Transformation Ancient Demon. Even after falling to a lower realm, it can quickly recover through Blood Sacrifice... It can destroy the Primordial Soul Sword Sect, and you, Jue Ming, have contributed most of your essence and blood cultivation, so you're responsible."
Fang Xing silently recalled and also comprehended a fundamental Buddhist scripture - the Lotus Withering Sutra. Unfortunately, it only reached the level of Incarnation Late-stage.
Aside from that, there were some Buddhist abilities and secret techniques... which were slightly novel.
As for Jue Ming's treasures?
The most powerful was just a Fifth Stage Buddhist treasure, which wasn't impressive to Fang Xing.
"Immortal Mansion Treasure, Immortal Mansion Treasure... not to mention its might, at the very least, can it assist me in comprehending the laws?"
A glimmer of anticipation flashed in Fang Xing's eyes: "Primordial Soul Sword Sect, within your sect, is there any clue?"
Even if he had to search an entire realm, at the very least, he needed to know what exactly he was looking for, so he could aim his efforts accordingly.
However, he wasn't foolish, and at this moment, his thoughts raced, leading him to think of the 'Ten Thousand Transformations Cauldron' on his body.
"The 'Ten Thousand Transformations Spirit Flame' within the Ten Thousand Transformations Cauldron can purify impurities, increase pill refinement success rates, and even detoxify pill poisons... It's now confirmed that even Fourth Stage pills can be enhanced."
"If it's effective for Fifth Stage pills, then its value surpasses a large number of Soul Body treasures."
"If it's effective for Sixth Stage and Seventh Stage pills... then it's highly likely that it's the so-called 'Immortal Mansion Treasure'. After all, there's no rule stating that the Immortal Mansion Treasure can't be a ball of flame."
Unfortunately, the current Fang Xing was at most a Fourth Stage Pill Refiner, and he only had a few Fifth Stage pill formulas, unable to even find the main ingredients.
Not to mention Sixth Stage and Seventh Stage pills.
Sixth Stage pills are effective for Essence Transformation Grandmasters, and even the entire Primordial Universe might not be able to gather enough materials for a single pill refinement.
However, some Holy Land Sect Gates might have this foundation, or they might be remnants brought down by Upper Realm Grandmasters.
"I can't attempt pill refinement, but I wonder if I can find some Fifth Stage and Sixth Stage poisonous pills to experiment with."
Fang Xing took a deep breath: "It seems like I must go to the Primordial Soul Sword Sect..."
Whether it's for the Essence Transformation inheritance, confirming the Immortal Mansion Treasure clue, or scavenging for Fifth Stage and Sixth Stage spiritual objects and pills... he had to make a trip!
...
Chaos Blade Reef.
Fang Xing's Nascent Soul and sword merged as one, and the Great Freedom Profound Gold Sword Qi transformed into a blood-red sword aura, slashing through the Nascent Soul True Monarch's magical body.
A flash of light revealed a tiny Nascent Soul flying out, its face aged with three strands of long beards swaying in the wind. In its small hand, it held a green jade pendant. With a furious shout, it asked, "Why is the void still sealed?"
Once the Nascent Soul's spirit body was unable to use teleportation techniques, its ability to escape was severely limited.
Before he could finish speaking, his tiny Nascent Soul was bound by countless sword threads, transforming into a blood-red cocoon.
Fang Xing extended his sleeves, and the 'blood-red cocoon' was collected into his sleeve.
"The seventh one..."
He brandished his sword and looked around, only to find that the other Nascent Soul True Monarchs had already fled without a trace.
"Why are you running... If you all worked together, I'd surely be defeated..."
"Although running is the right choice, I'll hold out until my main body arrives..."
Fang Xing sighed softly.
With so many Nascent Soul True Monarchs scattering and fleeing, the number he could kill was significantly reduced.
Even a Nascent Soul at the early stage, with its sole focus on escape, could achieve an incredibly terrifying speed.
These few Nascent Souls were just the initial fruits of his battle.
'Fortunately, with these and the two Late-stage Nascent Souls, if the Ten Thousand Dharmas Ghost Infant still can't break through to the Great True Monarch, then I'll discard it...'
Fang Xing's heart couldn't help but mock.
At this moment, another sword cry sounded, and the White Tiger Seven Kill Sword Array collapsed.
On the reef, a white-haired figure stood tall, his clothes stained with the blood of his enemies, his head full of white hair, and his eyes cold.
"Taibai Sword Immortal... it seems he has succeeded."
"Although he relied heavily on the array's power, facing only one enemy at a time, but to have killed nine formidable foes, his cultivation is indeed impressive."
Fang Xing nodded in agreement, "Indeed, he is a sword cultivator with astonishing combat prowess."
It was unclear whether he was praising the Taibai Sword Immortal or himself.
"Finally..."
The Taibai Sword Immortal closed his eyes, and a sword infant appeared above his head.
With a serious expression on his small face, he reached out his right hand and drew out the Nascent Soul's body.
His Lifebound Mystic Treasure, the 'Taibai Sword,' emerged.
The sword core and sword infant of a sword cultivator are intimately connected to their origin, making it difficult to separate them.
Once the flying sword's main body is utilized, it becomes a matter of life and death.
At this moment, on the tiny Nascent Soul's hand, the 'Taibai Sword' bore nine blood marks on its blade, indicating that it had devoured nine Nascent Souls.
"Please protect me while I perform the final step of the 'Nine Maternal Divine Infants Sword Refinement Technique' to advance my Lifebound Flying Sword."
The Taibai Sword Immortal was filled with vigor.
After killing nine formidable foes, the pent-up desire for slaughter in his heart was released, and even his Nascent Soul became calm and peaceful.
"Taibai Fellow Daoist, wait..."
However, Fang Xing, through his connection with his main body, learned that his main body had soul-searched two Great True Monarch Nascent Souls, uncovering valuable intelligence: "There's deception! The Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch's Nascent Soul has likely been tampered with..."
In simpler terms, the Nascent Soul had been poisoned.
The Taibai Sword Immortal's small face paled, and he quickly opened his mouth.
A baby fire fell onto the Taibai Sword, intending to burn away the nine blood marks.
But it was already too late. Three of the nine blood marks, stimulated by the infant fire, instantly turned pitch black.
Even the Taibai Sword emitted a sizzling sound of corrosion.
"Could it be the 'Nine Infants Poison,' one of the Ten Great Poisons of the Han Sea Cultivation World?"
The Taibai Sword Immortal's small face turned black.
He quickly swallowed a spirit pill, circulated his cultivation method, and expelled the poison.
After a flurry of frantic actions, the Taibai Sword Immortal finally regained his senses, his face turning pale. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist. Otherwise, if I had proceeded with the secret technique's final step, it wouldn't have been as simple as a severe depletion of energy; I might have even dropped in cultivation realm."
His expression was humble and gentle, like that of a child who had experienced a beating in society.
'Now he knows to call me Fellow Daoist instead of Junior Brother?'
Fang Xing rolled his eyes inwardly, but his face showed concern: "Can you hold on, Taibai Fellow Daoist? This place has become a dangerous zone, and it's best to leave as soon as possible..."
"Indeed, but it's impossible to use the teleportation array. Earlier, while in the White Tiger Seven Kill Sword Array, I discovered an even more powerful void force sealing a radius of ten thousand li..."
The Taibai Sword Immortal said, "Within the Chaos Blade Reef Sea, it seems that all void-related methods are unusable... This kind of treasure must have come from either the Ethereal Immortal Palace or the Limitless Hall!"
"Oh?"
Fang Xing and the Taibai Sword Immortal flew side by side towards the array core where the Fire Dragon True Monarch was located. With interest, Fang Xing asked, "Are these the only two major sacred grounds?"
"Yes, especially the Ethereal Immortal Palace. The cultivators of this palace are renowned for their expertise in void techniques. It is said that their founding root lies in a 'Golden Thread Jade Page' passed down from the upper realm, upon which is written the 'Ethereal Void Scripture,' detailing the mysteries of the void..."
"I'd like to have a look at it someday."
Fang Xing's eyes lit up with anticipation.
If he could study this cultivation scripture and gain insight into the principles of space, who knows what the future might hold?
Perhaps he could proactively provide energy to open the gates to the myriad realms?
