A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

Page 20

Over the past three years, Yunhua has not only perfected the Void Rift Wind Technique, achieving a speed twenty times faster than that of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, but also cultivated the Five Elements Magnetic Divine Light to perfection using the Five Elements Magnetic Ore sent by the Wonderful Sound Sect. This makes him essentially immune to Nascent Soul stage spells and magic weapon attacks.

Furthermore, he deduced a divine power applicable to the Void Heaven Palace, the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder Finger, which Yunhua comprehended by studying the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo and is specifically designed to restrain Yin spirits, evil ghosts, and divine thoughts, among other Yin creatures.

The first magical artifact Yunhua crafted was based on that immature electromagnetic cannon technique. Although it's called an electromagnetic cannon, it should actually be called the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder Crossbow.

It uses five-element magnetic minerals to generate a magnetic field, and wards off evil with divine thunder to generate an electric current. The bow body is made of ten-thousand-year-old ironwood, and the crossbow string is made of the spider silk of the seventh-level demon beast, the Blood Jade Spider.

Finally, eighty-one crossbow bolts were forged using Thunder Bamboo. On the day they were completed, Yunhua fired a test shot, combining the elasticity of the crossbow with the principle of an electromagnetic cannon.

The arrow flew twenty miles in less than a second, showcasing the brute force of technology and skill, and directly blasted away a small island thirty miles away.

The remaining Heavenly Thunder Bamboo was refined by Yunhua into the Divine Power of the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder Finger.

Stepping out of the secluded cultivation room, Yunhua saw three thunderclouds in the sky. It turned out that Yuan Yao, Yanli, and Xiaomei were about to break through to the Core Formation stage.

"Husband, you've come out of seclusion! I thought you were going to miss their Core Formation Day." Xin Ruyin walked over and hugged Yunhua's arm, her expression filled with longing and affection.

"It's my fault. I'll spend some time with you all during this period." Yunhua felt that he was about to leave this world, but with his current progress in refining the Gate of the Other Shore, he couldn't bring it with him when he left.

"That's good. We haven't spent much time together in a long time," Xin Ruyin said with a hint of complaint.

"Ruyin, I may have to leave soon," Yunhua said frankly, though reluctant to part with her.

Xin Ruyin looked up at Yunhua's eyes, her clear eyes filled with confusion.

"Where are you going? Can you take me with you?"

"Ruyin, I'm leaving this world. I'm not a person of this world. I'm sorry, I can't take you with me."

Yunhua embraced Xin Ruyin and whispered in her ear.

“I will find a way to come back and take you away. It may take a long time, and I don’t know if you can wait until that day.”

"My husband, no matter how long it takes, I will wait for your return. If I can't wait for you in the mortal realm, I will go to the spirit realm. If I can't wait for you in the spirit realm, I will go to the immortal realm." At this moment, Xin Ruyin's obsession took shape. Her previous idea of ​​relying solely on Yunhua was replaced by the obsession of waiting for Yunhua's return.

"I will be back as soon as possible. Before I leave, I will go to the Void Heaven Palace, where you may find treasures that can help you reach the Spirit Realm."

The tribulation ended quickly, and the three of them officially broke through to the Core Formation stage.

"Master, you've emerged from seclusion." Yun Yao was also pleasantly surprised by Yun Hua's appearance. What was unknown to others was that Yuan Yao harbored feelings for Yun Hua.

“I will stay on Little Huan Island for a while to preach and answer your questions.”

For the next few years, Yunhua stayed by Ruyin's side, refining magical treasures for the group while perfecting Xin Ruyin's and his own cultivation techniques.

Now, Yunhua has established the Nine Yin Manual, which Xin Ruyin has been cultivating, to the Void Returning stage, and has also built the framework for the Void Immortal stage.

Once Ruyin's cultivation reaches the Returning to Emptiness stage, she will be able to gradually combine other cultivation methods to develop subsequent techniques.

In the small pavilion, Yunhua leaned against a pillar, drinking the spiritual liquid wine that had refined countless Yin spirits and extremely Yin nascent souls. This wine enhanced the primordial spirit and condensed the soul, making it a rare resource.

Xin Ruyin gently stroked the strings and played. It had been a long time since the two of them had spent like this. The music conveyed their longing, and even the birds stopped singing and listened quietly.

Yunhua took out the fragment of the map of the Void Heaven Palace. At this moment, the fragment pointed to a direction, which was the signal for the Void Heaven Palace to be opened.

"Is my husband leaving?" Xin Ruyin asked, but her tone was one of certainty.

"Yes, you will need some resources to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and you will also need some treasures to resist spatial storms when you ascend to the Spirit Realm in the future."

Yunhua had already told Xin Ruyin everything he knew about the Legend of Mortal Cultivation, to make her future path easier.

Half a month later, in an extremely deserted sea area, Yunhua saw many cultivators heading in one direction, and the usually quiet and deserted sea area became lively.

Not far away in the sky, a magnificent celestial palace stands motionless, suspended among the clouds.

The palace, hundreds of feet high, was cast entirely like a piece of fine jade, radiating a soft, radiant glow, like a heavenly palace from mythology.

The Heavenly Palace was surrounded by a golden light shield. Many cultivators entered it, only to disappear in a flash of white light.

Yunhua entered without hesitation and arrived in front of a palace. Above the entrance, which was several dozen feet high, were three huge silver ancient characters: "Xutian Palace".

The three characters possess an astonishing aura, with a divine charm that pierces the soul; the person who wrote them must have been a cultivator with extremely high cultivation.

Entering the palace, one finds a narrow passageway paved with beautiful jade. The passageway is extremely high, yet appears incredibly narrow.

Every part of the palace was engraved with restrictions, prohibiting divine sense from spying on it and ignoring the defenses of the Nascent Soul stage.

The passage was extremely long, and it took a quarter of an hour to reach the end. After passing through a light blue screen, we arrived at a square hall.

The hall was extremely spacious, measuring three or four hundred feet in length and width, and could accommodate thousands of people without feeling crowded.

Dozens of huge jade pillars stood in the hall, with cultivators standing or sitting on top of each pillar. Yunhua chose a pillar where no one was standing.

Yun Hua, who was sitting cross-legged on top of the bead, noticed that in a corner, Han Li, who had an ordinary dark complexion, was also there, as well as Fairy Zi Ling from the Miao Yin Sect.

Most of them were at the Core Formation stage, with a few at the Foundation Establishment and Nascent Soul stages, such as Madam Wen, the two elders of the Star Palace, and Wan Tianming.

A few days later, as everyone gradually arrived, a huge white jade door slammed shut at the entrance of the hall with a loud bang.

As the two elders of the Star Palace walked to the front, they opened a small teleportation array. Many cultivators slowly entered the array and were teleported to the outer hall.

At a small earthen mound, about ten feet away, a hazy mist obscured the view, and gusts of eerie wind howled.

Yunhua emitted a five-colored radiance, which was Yunhua's supernatural power, the Five Elements Magnetic Divine Light, making it impossible for the surrounding haunted houses to get close.

Not far away, the sound of ghostly wails rang out. Yunhua took out the Devouring Heaven Jar and came to the place of ghostly weeping, where he saw Ziling being suppressed by the soul-snatching ghostly sound.

As a Ghost King at the Core Formation stage rapidly pounced towards Zi Ling, Zi Ling, her face filled with horror, walked towards the Ghost King in despair.

"Hmph!" Yun Hua snorted coldly, released Zi Ling from her state, and the Devouring Jar emitted a dark light, absorbing the Ghost King without causing a ripple.

"Thank you for saving me, senior. If it weren't for you, I would probably be buried in the belly of the Ghost King." Zi Ling stood up and hurriedly bowed to Yun Hua to express her gratitude.

"You're only at the late Foundation Establishment stage. This Void Heaven Palace is far too dangerous for you. Why did you come here?"

"Please inform you, senior, that Zi Ling's aptitude is low, and she is facing difficulties in forming her core. She had no choice but to come to the Void Heaven Palace to seek an opportunity to form her core." Zi Ling was also completely shameless. She naturally knew the dangers of the Void Heaven Palace, but for the sake of her path, she had no choice but to take the risk.

"Low aptitude? As far as I know, you possess a demonic cultivation constitution, the Yin-Yang Body of the Maiden, allowing you to progress rapidly in demonic cultivation techniques with virtually no bottlenecks."

"Ah! Thank you for telling me, senior, but I have never had the chance to obtain demonic cultivation techniques." Zi Ling was overjoyed by her own physique and believed Yun Hua's words without a doubt.

"This is the Profound Yin Scripture that I obtained after killing the Extreme Yin Demon. It's of no use to me, so I'll give it to you."

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. I am deeply grateful." Zi Ling put away the jade slip containing the Xuan Yin Scripture and bowed again with joy.

"Your cultivation level is too low. Just stay with me for now. Once we reach a safe place, wait to be teleported out by the Void Heaven Palace."

Yunhua walked into the depths of the ghostly mist, with Ziling following closely behind.

Along the way, Yunhua traveled around and collected a large number of ghosts. Almost all the ghosts in the entire Ghost Mist region were collected by Yunhua.

Yunhua led Ziling out of the ghostly mist, and in front of them was a courtyard where a group of cultivators were sitting busily.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Path of Ice and Fire

Among these cultivators, some were deathly pale, while others were covered in blood, suggesting they had endured a fierce battle in the ghostly mist.

In the center surrounded by several pavilions, on an empty stone slab, a teleportation array emitting white light reappeared.

This is the only path to the next level, the Ice and Fire Path, but you can collect spiritual herbs before heading there.

Yunhua entered directly without waiting for the Star Palace elder's introduction, much to the surprise of the surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators who were not giving the Star Palace any face.

As a result, many Nascent Soul stage cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths followed suit. They had long disliked the Star Palace, and after this trip to the Void Heaven Palace, they would likely turn against it completely.

The two elders of the Star Palace frowned deeply, extremely dissatisfied, and barely suppressed their anger.

With a flash of light, the scenery before Yunhua changed drastically, clearly indicating that she had arrived in another world.

The sky is azure, the clouds drift by, and the surrounding mountains are lush and green, with vast grasslands teeming with life.

It's hard to believe that this is inside the Void Heaven Palace. This world was cut off from the heavens and earth by an ancient cultivator, turning Sumeru into a single particle, demonstrating its divine power.

Yunhua flew all the way to a small, inconspicuous rocky mountain with little spiritual energy, almost barren of vegetation, and completely different from its surroundings.

Yunhua took out a golden silk net, which swelled in the wind and transformed into a massive net that enveloped the small rocky hill and its surroundings.

Five-colored light appeared on Yunhua's body, and the Five Elements Primordial Magnetic Divine Light transformed into a giant hand that covered the sky, directly piercing into the bottom of the small stone mountain.

Yunhua lifted up the small stone mountain, and a snow-white rabbit soared into the sky, only to be trapped by a golden net.

The large hand that was lifting the small rocky hill shook it a few times, and large pieces of rocks and soil slid down like flowing water. Soon all the rocks and soil were shaken off.

You can vaguely see that the large hand is holding something. The large hand shrinks and comes in front of Yunhua. It turns out to be a strange root that looks like an old tree root.

It is about half a foot long, yellowish-brown all over, and wrinkled, making it look extremely inconspicuous. However, a beautiful little silver flower blooms at the top, emitting a refreshing fragrance.

This is the true form of the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, while the snow-white rabbit covered by the golden net is its incarnation.

Yunhua caught the rabbit, integrated it into the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, then took out a jade box, put it inside, and sealed it away.

"Come out. I've been watching you for a long time and I've already spotted you." Yunhua put away the jade box and turned to a seemingly ordinary place.

"Please forgive me, senior. I was just passing by and will be leaving now." A seemingly sinister-looking young man stepped forward, bowed, and said.

"No need to pretend, Old Demon Xuan Gu, I know it's you." Yun Hua's casual words stirred up a storm in Xuan Gu's heart.

Xuan Gu remained expressionless and said with a puzzled look, "Please forgive me, senior. I do not know who this Xuan Gu the old demon you speak of is."

"Hehe! I dare to say this because I have my reasons. You have no secrets in my eyes."

Xuan Gu's expression changed several times: "Fellow Daoist, please forgive me. I must thank you for eliminating the extremely Yin brat for me."

"I killed Ji Yin only because he offended me. If you give me the complete Xuan Yin Scripture, I will let you go. How about it?"

"Fellow Daoist, if you wish to obtain the Profound Yin Scripture, that is certainly possible." After much deliberation, Xuan Gu decided to provide the correct Profound Yin Scripture.

Yunhua took the Xuan Yin Scripture, scanned it with his divine sense, and after carefully comparing and deducing it, confirmed that it was correct.

"You're quite sensible. I was hoping you'd do something underhanded, but it seems that's a pity."

"Fellow Daoist is joking. Xuan Gu eliminated the extremely Yin brat for me, and I am grateful. How could I be so ungrateful?"

A cold sweat broke out on Xuan Gu's back, and he pretended to be grateful as he spoke.

"Hmph! Boring, farewell." Yunhua flicked her sleeves and turned to leave.

Xuan Gu breathed a sigh of relief when Yun Hua left. He was relieved that Ji Yin had died, but he hadn't expected to run into Yun Hua, this killer star, when he came to retrieve the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng to restore his cultivation.

Upon arriving at the Ice and Fire Path, we found ourselves in a mountain wall with two cracks that formed two passageways.

Outside the entrances to the two passages, a stone tablet about three or four feet high appeared. One was inscribed with "Mystic Crystal Path," and the other with several ancient characters such as "Lava Road."

Some of the closest cultivators planned to rush in first.

“Ah…it’s so hot!”

"No, it's too cold in here, I'll freeze to death!"

However, the cultivators who had rushed in between the two passages were so frightened that they retreated one after another.

Yunhua chose the Xuanjing Path, and the Eight Desolate Profound Fire, which had already been cultivated into a divine power, ignited on Yunhua's body.

Yun Hua swiftly passed through the Xuanjing Path, killing all the Silver Light Rats released by the Star Palace Elder.

Inside a stone hall that was fifty or sixty feet wide and about seven or eight feet high, there was a teleportation array in the center and a huge blue stone gate several feet high on each of the four sides.

At this moment, all the doors were tightly closed, sealing the place off like a large prison cell.

Inside the stone hall, there are also a large number of stone tables and benches of various kinds, none of which are the same, numbering in the dozens.

On these stone benches sat five or six cultivators with varying expressions.

Master Yi, Tian Wuzi, the old farmer, and the bearded man were all present, and the rest of the cultivators were all in the late stage of Core Formation; there was not a single weak cultivator among them.

Reaching this point means you've passed the second stage.

With the disappearance of the teleportation array, it also means that everyone in the Ice and Fire Path, whether alive or dead, will ultimately remain there forever.

At the same moment the teleportation array disappeared, the stone doors on the four walls rose automatically with a rumbling sound.

Surprisingly, deep blue stone passages were revealed, leading to who-knows-where.

Three of the four passages lead to a pavilion, and each pavilion contains different items, such as "ancient treasures," "elixirs," and "cultivation techniques"—things left behind by ancient cultivators.

But each item is sealed with a restriction. Each person only has one chance to take one item. Once obtained, the person will be immediately teleported to the next level, "Exquisite Illusion."

As for the last passage, it leads directly to the next level. Anyone who goes in can only blame their bad luck and have wasted their time.

Arriving at a floating, four-cornered pavilion, over thirty feet tall, entirely cast from beautiful jade, a magnificent palace.

Above the entrance to the pavilion hangs a large, golden plaque, about ten feet in size, inscribed with three rather large ancient characters: "Miaodan Pavilion".

After entering the randomly chosen bluestone passage, Yunhua made her way to this place without any problems.

He carefully examined the pavilion and sensed the astonishing and unfathomable spiritual energy emanating from it. A faint white fluorescent light enveloped the pavilion, indicating that a powerful restrictive formation had been set up there.
