Eternal Life: I Can Control My Essence Qi-Chapter 247 - 189: Soulless Incarnation, Taking the Stage (2)

"Swish!"

Du Gucheng's Magical Treasure was a Flying Sword entwined with lightning; although it was only three feet long, it exuded an aura akin to the majesty of thunder, making one feel immensely suppressed just by looking from afar.

Under the Magical Power at the Golden Core Level, the three major Treasures emitted Spiritual Light that illuminated half the sky. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Go!"

All three shouted in unison, unleashing the Treasures, bombarding the volcanic lake at the top of Prison Gate Mountain.

"Boom!"

With a deafeningly loud roar, the three major Treasures plunged down like beams of light, shattering the sapphire-like surface of the lake instantly. Huge waves surged, mist rose, and under the overwhelming power of the Golden Core Treasures, everything vaporized into oblivion.

The water, directly hit by the Treasures' power, disappeared instantly, while the peripheral aftermath spilled out. The overflowing waves reached heights of over a hundred feet, rolling back layer upon layer, crashing against the mountainside, causing large portions of the mountain to tremble and collapse.

Immediately following, a stratum more than two hundred feet thick was perforated by the combined force of the three major Treasures, creating a massive passage hundreds of feet wide.

"Boom..."

Scorching magma erupted, fire columns soared over a hundred feet high, visible even from hundreds of miles away.

With an outlet for the immense pressure from beneath, the flow of magma was relentless, with hot waves spreading far and wide.

"Sizzle..."

Endless light and heat met the lake water, causing a chain of intense mini explosions at the lake's bottom instantly. Large amounts of steam rose, air expanded, while magma rapidly cooled into rock, and the water near the breach boiled almost endlessly.

Yet, more magma continued to erupt with the fire columns, scattering in all directions, reaching beyond the bounds of the volcanic lake, akin to cannonballs.

"This..."

The scene before them left hundreds of Foundation Establishment masters speechless.

Even among the Golden Core Ancestor-level forces, it was rare to witness such displays by the Golden Core Ancestors, leaving everyone deeply awestruck.

Tales of upheaval, of cities and nations being destroyed in ancient legends, paled in comparison to the shock of witnessing such power firsthand today.

To pierce hundreds of feet into the ground, triggering a volcanic eruption—what kind of Divine Power and Magical Ability was this?!

The might of Golden Core Great Cultivators truly made many Foundation Establishment Cultivators tremble inwardly, extinguishing any errant thoughts instantly:

"The divine might of the Golden Core Ancestor is indeed terrifying!"

"It seems best not to provoke the Realm Breaker; meddling in the dispute over the Secret Realm Core Land could be fatal..."

Simultaneously, similar thoughts emerged in many Foundation Establishment powerhouses' minds.

Patiently, they waited for a little less than an hour:

The magma eruption from Prison Gate Mountain finally subsided, leaving only sporadic bursts that couldn't even breach the lake anymore.

Conversely, the lake began to flow along the channels made by the magma's explosive exit, forming a gigantic whirlpool inside the mountain, causing the water level to plummet, suggesting the volcanic lake would soon disappear.

"It's a pity, so much destruction..."

Several Foundation Establishment masters surveyed the scene, sighing inwardly, feeling slightly remorseful.

Although this eruption of Prison Gate Mountain was neither as expansive nor as powerful as the one millennia ago, its consequences remained catastrophic.

Though Liang Continent is predominantly desert and wasteland, with few Cultivation sects and noble families, and even local inhabitants being mostly nomadic tribes residing around various oases, the losses were not as severe as in other continents.

However, taking into account the indirect aftermath brought by sudden climate changes, this eruption of Prison Gate Mountain will still cause at least tens of thousands of casualties, yet the three Golden Core Ancestors and the majority of Foundation Establishment Cultivators seemed unconcerned.

Seeing that the time was about right:

"Let's go."

The three Golden Core Ancestors took the lead, flying downward, followed closely by numerous Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Passing through the giant lake whirlpool, they flew down the paths of flowing water and exploding magma.

After traversing over a thousand feet, the many Foundation Establishment Cultivators finally reached a vast cavern space beneath where lava flowed and mist rose, catching sight of the Bronze Gate from afar, feeling instantly relieved.

After all, if not for the three Golden Core Ancestors piercing the layers, allowing the massive eruption of magma:

The hundreds of Foundation Establishment Cultivators present would have mostly lacked the ability to travel such a long distance through magma; reaching the Secret Realm entrance would have been challenging.

"Let's begin."

Upon the command of the three Golden Core Ancestors:

The leaders of many sects and noble families promptly led their people according to the prearranged order, entering one by one into the Bronze Gate, quickly disappearing.

Soon, only the three Golden Core Ancestors and the solitary Realm Breaker remained at the scene.

"Qian Le, you go in as well."

True Yang Ancestor instructed.

"Alright."

The Realm Breaker nodded dumbly and walked straight into the Bronze Gate, disappearing immediately.

After he left, Three Mountains Ancestor first spoke, in a deep voice:

"Yu Wen Tai hides in the Secret Realm, likely also targeting the Core Land, which should be in one of the five Affiliated Mini Worlds."

"Our actions are faster; as long as we're not too unlucky, we should be able to enter the Affiliated Mini World before him and find Yu Wen Tai!"

"Even if we can't kill him, we must drive him out of the Affiliated Mini World to ensure the relics in the Core Land don't get plundered by him."

"Rest assured."

Du Gucheng waved his hand and spoke:

"We fear him outside because he possesses a Third Grade Secret Treasure and can escape at will, threatening our disciples."

"But him hiding in the Five Elements Secret Realm is a self-binding move; perhaps we can seize this opportunity to eliminate this danger completely!"

True Yang Ancestor glanced at the two, emphasizing:

"It's agreed that this operation targets Yu Wen Tai as a temporary plan, and we shall disband 'Soulless Incarnation' after handling him."

"Rest assured."

Both Three Mountains Ancestor and Du Gucheng nodded in agreement.

Soon, True Yang Ancestor threw out a soft, clay-like substance, while Three Mountains Ancestor and Du Gucheng each took out a black Glazed Bead.

The three simultaneously cast numerous spells, preliminarily fusing the three Treasures into one, then forced out several drops of their Essence Blood to merge into it, leaving behind impressions of their Magical Power and Divine Soul...

Once a series of steps were completed:

"Buzz!"

A pale figure materialized, its head peculiarly formed with three faces, each facing a different direction.

Its aura was equally strange but the Spiritual Pressure was exceptionally strong, exceeding the normal level of Foundation Establishment Perfection yet clearly falling short of the Golden Core.

"Whew..."

True Yang Ancestor panted a few times, his complexion slightly pale, forehead sweating, the other two were also in similar states.

Obviously, creating this 'Soulless Incarnation' using Secret Techniques was no easy task for them and required considerable sacrifice.

But having invested over a hundred years to reach this stage, this sacrifice was insignificant; to eliminate uncertainty, it was an essential cost.

"Go!"

The three simultaneously tossed out their Treasures, which landed on the three-faced man's body.

Next, the three Golden Core Ancestors sat cross-legged, performed Daoist Skills to protect themselves, and each cast a set of Array Banner, sealing their surroundings.

After completing all these steps, they closed their eyes, extracting their consciousness through Divine Travel, projecting it onto the three-faced man.

The next moment:

"Buzz!"

The three-faced man abruptly opened his eyes, tapped his finger lightly, and Magical Power evolved into a robe adorning his body.

After flexing his limbs, he beckoned with his hand, placing a red-golden ring around his neck, wielding a Flying Sword in his left hand and holding a Seal in his right, ready to go.

"Let's proceed."

He slowly spoke, transmitting a peculiar sound like a sequence of overlapping pendulum clacks:

"Go and eliminate Yu Wen Tai, eradicate this menace!"

"Alright!"

The self-answered voice concluded:

The three-faced man flickered and instantly entered through the bronze gate, his figure disappearing.
