Aspiring to the Immortal Path-Chapter 929: Hidden Estate
As the True Immortal's power was neutralized, the Five Origins Estate began to tremble.
And then the rocks, soil, water, plants, trees, and even various fiends began to fly up into the sky.
As they were tossed and turned in the winds, they wove together a scene of frenzied destruction, as if the entire world was being torn apart and squished together.
Once this wild storm had subsided, everyone found that there was now a large depression in the center of the Five Origins Estate. This depression was in the shape of a valley and was covered in fog, as if it was another world.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden development, but Tang Jie's eyes flashed—as expected, there was a hidden estate in the Five Origins Estate!
When Tang Jie had come here the first time, he had found it strange how low the level of the Five Origins Estate was.
Normally, the cave estate left behind by a cultivator would be of a similar level to the cultivation of its owner. An Earth Immortal's estate might not have been able to stop other Earth Immortals, but it would have no problems stopping Violet Palace cultivators.
But the Five Origins Estate, an estate left behind by a True Immortal, was a place where a bunch of Violet Palace cultivators could freely travel around, with Tang Jie being able to sweep through the place as a Deification cultivator. While Tang Jie was stronger than most, the average Soul Projection cultivator would have had just as good a time, which was strange given that this was a True Immortal's estate. Thus, Tang Jie believed that there had to be something else to this estate.
Alas, with his mastery of formations, he still was unable to solve the secret of this estate, and this mystery had continued to trouble him. It was only when these Immortals had come after him and Tang Jie used the remnant True Immortal power left in the estate against them that this mystery was solved.
The valley before them was clearly the true hidden estate of the Five Origins Estate. It was no wonder he couldn't find it! The master of this estate had used some formidable method to seal it, and it was only revealed when the seal was drained of power.
While Flowing Wind's group was still in shock, Tang Jie laughed and said, "I didn't think I would get this sort of surprise. Let's go in and take a look!"
He flew down to the valley.
The Immortals realized what was going on, and the Flame Celestial Sovereign shouted at Tang Jie and threw a flame at him.
Tang Jie instantly turned himself into several hundred Tang Jies, all of them flying into the valley—Reflections of Floating Life! In truth, he had many ways of dealing with the pursuit from the three Immortals. Both Nearby Horizon and the Infinite Palace would also be fine, and he could even just take one or two attacks. He had chosen this method primarily for the sake of Yiyi and the others.
They understood and flew toward the valley, even He Chong and Duan Fourth joining them. This was their first opportunity to leave the diagram since Tang Jie had linked it to the Primordial Fog Domain.
The thick fog permeating the valley could obstruct even the eyes of Immortals, blurring their vision on the perimeter and completely blocking out the depths.
After a few seconds in the valley, Tang Jie had completely disappeared. The three Immortals could not accept this and flew into the valley in pursuit.
As they entered the fog and flew down for a long time, they felt as if this valley was enormously deep. All around them was white fog, which didn't completely block their vision, but made everything too indistinct and obscured to make out.
After flying for a while, they finally hit the ground, which was cracked and had numerous boulders scattered about. They could see green in the distance and hear the wind blowing.
Curious, the three Immortals tried to fly up and get a better look, but they saw nothing but green, as if they were in a field. Alas, the fog was too thick, and they could not see far into the distance. What they could see were giant trees with barkless trunks and leafless branches. They could no longer see the surrounding mountain walls, as if they were no longer in the valley and had been transported to some other world.
Mou Siming looked at Flowing Wind and asked, "What do we do now?"
Flowing Wind shot several bolts of energy at the Overflowing Heaven Mirror, and several scenes appeared on it. To Flowing Wind's surprise, he couldn't understand what he was seeing at all.
Various patches of color floated past the mirror, holding no meaning whatsoever.
Flowing Wind fruitlessly examined them for a while before shaking his head. "We'll just have to plan as we go."
The Flame Celestial Sovereign darkly said, "You two, be careful. The environment here is very strange, probably the work of the formation laid down by that True Immortal. In normal circumstances, even if we couldn't break through it, we could at least protect ourselves. But Tang Jie is proficient in formations, so if he is able to figure out the secrets of this place, he could use it against us."
The normally arrogant Mou Siming immediately nodded in agreement. "Correct. The best plan is to find Tang Jie as quickly as possible and have a decisive battle with him. Once we've killed Tang Jie, we can slowly solve this formation."
Flowing Wind replied, "While this place is strange, one positive aspect is that Tang Jie hasn't been able to prepare beforehand, so we won't have to deal with many of his tricks. Although the Overflowing Heaven Mirror is not as useful here, some other methods might work, and there's no harm in trying."
The Flame Celestial Sovereign and Mou Siming both grew excited, and they employed their own tracking methods. A few moments later, Mou Siming shouted, "My Crimson Thread works!"
With a shake of his hand, a red thread appeared, leading into the distance.
All three of them laughed. "He's not escaping this time!"
They began to follow the red thread.
They encountered no traps along the way, and the Flame Celestial Sovereign chuckled, "What True Immortal methods? Other than this fog, there's nothing else to be afraid of." freeweɓnovel.cøm
"Brother Hong, don't get careless," Mou Siming cautioned.
After fighting together, Mou Siming had begun to take the Flame Celestial Sovereign more seriously, even growing more polite to him. One day ago, Mou Siming would have never believed that it was possible.
To be honest, it was because of the pressure exerted by Tang Jie.
Tang Jie had shaken their minds too much in today's battle.
As they were flying along, there was a mighty roar, and then a giant figure appeared in front of the trio.
