Chapter 67: The First Breeze Upon Arrival in This World
Chapter 67: The First Breeze Upon Arrival in This World
With the grand formation broken, the altar shook and was damaged, losing its function. It was pointless to remain guarding the eight outer altars and their respective peaks.
The area surrounding Tianxu Mountain immediately descended into chaotic battle.
Amidst the chaos, Lei Jun activated his lifebound Wind-Riding Talisman.
Under the influence of his spiritual power, he rode the wind and slipped into the night, as if disappearing without a trace.
As the protective power of the outer grand formation continued to crumble, a large number of Yellow Sky Daoists poured in.
"Why wasn't the core of the grand formation completely destroyed? This means we still have to continue attacking the summit of the main peak."
A middle-aged Daoist, who was leading a group from the Yellow Sky, shouted sternly, "Our masters are heading to the summit of the main peak, while we're going to the foot of the main peak.
Our task is to take control of the pill rooms, storage rooms, and medicinal gardens—all critical locations.
If we encounter anyone along the way, take them out as quickly as possible; don't waste time!"
Lei Jun observed for a moment, seeing the mountain engulfed in chaotic battle with no clear victor. He quietly concealed his presence and did not leave Qian Tian Peak.
Instead, he braved the biting gale and ventured into the exposed interior of Qian Tian Peak, which had been torn open.
The upper-middle lot mentioned that after the shocking change at the main peak, something would happen before midnight. Lei Jun believed that this critical moment was now upon him.
As he ventured deeper into the mountain's interior, the gale grew more piercing, making it difficult for lower realm cultivators to withstand.
Fortunately, Lei Jun had the Soil-Gathering Banner.
Although he couldn't unleash the full power of this spiritual banner on a large scale, it was more than sufficient for protection at the moment.
Driven by Lei Jun's magic power, the Soil-Gathering Banner fluttered, emitting a faint, murky yellow spiritual light.
These rays of light seemed to condense into something solid in mid-air, resembling soil and rocks.
The gale continuously scattered the soil and rocks, but new murky yellow rays immediately replaced them, maintaining the protective layer around Lei Jun.
He descended, carefully searching.
The piercing gale interfered with Lei Jun's perception, making his search fruitless for a long time.
As he estimated that midnight was approaching, Lei Jun frowned slightly.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew by.
Amidst the raging storms, Lei Jun surprisingly heard a distinct, gentle gust of wind, completely unlike the piercing gale filling the mountain's interior.
This breeze seemed familiar yet foreign.
...It was like the gentle breeze that caressed his face when he first arrived in this world, atop the Green Mountain.
Lei Jun's intuition told him where this sense of familiarity came from.
Following that faint yet otherworldly breeze, he searched within the mountain's interior.
Finally, he arrived at a blank space.
Although there were rocks and mountains on all sides, this particular spot was devoid of the piercing gale, as if it had formed a vacuum.
Lei Jun retracted the Soil-Gathering Banner, and the dim yellow light and soil that had surrounded him disappeared.
The familiar gentle breeze caressed his face once more.
Unlike the initial encounter on Green Mountain, where the direction of the wind was uncertain, this time, Lei Jun had found its source.
In the pitch-black underground depths of the mountain, there was no light.
However, on a rock, a lustrous glow flickered, forming a profound seal.
The seal wasn't large, only about three inches square, and its patterns weren't complex. Yet, it seemed to contain infinite mysteries.
When Lei Jun approached this seal, he no longer felt the gentle breeze.
Instead, there were only currents of air circulating in cycles, their origin and end indiscernible.
Recalling Li Cangting, who had once traveled here, Lei Jun's long-held suspicions were confirmed in this moment.
This seal, like the writing left at the source of Tianxu River in Jiuzhou Ridge, should have originated from his Master Cangting.
In other words, the owner of the Heaven Master's Seal from the previous generation.
The seal was none other than the Heaven Master's Seal, the foremost treasure among the Three Treasures of the Heaven Master!
What Lei Jun hadn't expected was that the gentle breeze that cleansed his body and mind when he first arrived on Green Mountain also originated from the Heaven Master's Seal.
Was there another imprint of the seal there, or... had the true body of the Heaven Master's Seal been there before?
Did Senior Sister Xu Yuanzhen, who appeared under Green Mountain at that time, also come looking for the Heaven Master's Seal? But why didn't she find anything, and what was the reason for that...
Lei Jun's mind was suddenly filled with countless questions.
As midnight approached, the time left for Lei Jun was running out.
A four-star opportunity, then continue to bear the consequences, one must act with caution.
No wonder the middle sign was described as such, no wonder this was a middle sign and not a top sign.
Lei Jun breathed a long sigh, calming his mind, and tried to collect the imprint before him.
First, he attempted the same method he had used to collect the Fire Marrow Sunfish, employing the Upper Clarity Golden Bamboo.
However, lightning bolts erupted from the imprint, and the arcs of electricity caused the Upper Clarity Golden Bamboo to tremble, unable to contain it.
Lei Jun then took out the Soil-Gathering Flag.
This time, as the flag flashed with yellow light, the imprint left on the mountain rock seemed to come alive, detaching itself from the stone and merging into the dim yellow light.
In the next moment, the flag's surface bore a profound and intricate seal.
Lei Jun did not examine it closely for now. Instead, he raised the Soil-Gathering Flag, and with the protection of the yellow soil, his figure ascended, passing through the fierce winds within the mountain's belly, and flew towards the outside.
Time was nearing midnight, but just before that, Lei Jun successfully flew out of the mountain's belly.
Leaping down from Qian Tian Peak, Lei Jun turned back to look at the peak from a distance. It seemed largely unchanged.
As midnight arrived, the fierce winds within the mountain finally began to subside and gradually disappeared.
Under the cover of night, the split open Qian Tian Peak appeared ordinary, devoid of both spiritual essence and danger, like any other desolate mountain.
However, as the winds died down, Lei Jun's alertness heightened.
He must never approach this mountain again.
Lei Jun turned and left.
At this moment, the siege led by the Yellow Sky Daoists on the main peak of Tianxu Mountain was also reaching its climax.
Without the protection of the grand formation, the disciples of the Tianxu Sect were mostly caught off guard and overwhelmed by the sudden rush of the Yellow Sky Daoists. One after another, the passes on the main peak fell.
The higher-cultivation Yellow Sky Daoists were now concentrated at the summit, in front of the main hall of the Tianxu Sect's Dao Palace.
According to their expectations, the inside helper should have completely destroyed the core of the Tianxu Sect's formation.
However, for some unknown reason, the core of the formation was only half-destroyed, and the Yellow Sky Daoists had no choice but to launch a frontal assault.
The lower-realm Yellow Sky Daoists were attacking the important locations at the waist and foot of the main peak.
Lei Jun's gaze swept across, and he saw a Daoist observatory under siege by a group of Yellow Sky Daoists.
Half of the observatory had collapsed, revealing a few Tianxu Sect disciples still resisting fiercely, but the situation was precarious.
One of the besieging Yellow Sky Daoist disciples asked his master and senior brother, "It seems like there are no descendants of the Li family in the Tianxu Sect. Should we try to persuade them to surrender?"
The leading Daoist replied expressionlessly, "If they are fellow cultivators, they would have already joined us. If not, they deserve to die."
Someone next to him laughed, "Rest assured, as long as our master and the others break through Longhu Mountain and return to our ancestral court, we won't have to worry about lacking disciples."
The leading Daoist said, "Less chatter, don't waste time, kill!"
Lei Jun believed that there must be other enemies of the Tian Shi Fu who were secretly aiding and abetting the Yellow Sky Dao.
Otherwise, even if the Tian Shi Fu was dealing with other internal and external troubles, the Yellow Sky Dao would not have been able to gradually build up their strength under their suppression.
However, even so, the Yellow Sky Dao had been under pressure and suppression from the Tian Shi Fu and even the Tang officialdom for many years, making their situation difficult.
In such an extremely harsh external environment, it was unrealistic to have high moral expectations of those who desperately sought survival.
Those who managed to maintain high moral standards deserved praise.
It was only natural for those who couldn't.
But...
Extremism and obstinacy were often signs of impending loss of control.
Lei Jun shook his head and took out a talisman.
On the talisman, the five elements were complete, with gold, cyan, black, red, and brown intertwining.
At this moment, the gold, cyan, black, and brown colors disappeared, leaving only the red light shining brightly.
Five Thunder Talisman, Fire-Thunder!
In the next moment, fierce thunderfire exploded behind the group of Yellow Sky Daoists!
The explosions continued relentlessly, growing more intense with each blast, as if a warehouse filled with Thunder Blast Talismans and Fiery Blast Talismans was being detonated one after another!
